Managing a conflict of interest

Information icon Hello, Dan at DLT. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about on Wikipedia, you may have a conflict of interest (COI). Editors with a conflict of interest may be unduly influenced by their connection to the topic. See the conflict of interest guideline and FAQ for organizations for more information. We ask that you:

  • avoid editing or creating articles about yourself, your family, friends, company, organization or competitors;
  • propose changes on the talk pages of affected articles (you can use the {{ request edit}} template);
  • disclose your conflict of interest when discussing affected articles (see WP:DISCLOSE);
  • avoid linking to your organization's website in other articles (see WP:Spam);
  • do your best to comply with Wikipedia's content policies.

In addition, you are required by the Wikimedia Foundation's terms of use to disclose your employer, client, and affiliation with respect to any contribution which forms all or part of work for which you receive, or expect to receive, compensation. See WP:PAID.

Also, editing for the purpose of advertising, publicising, or promoting anyone or anything is not permitted. Thank you. N.J.A. | talk 15:07, 24 September 2019 (UTC) reply

  • Hi Dan, thanks for your post on my talk page. To answer your question re-read the above text and links. You or your company does not have any ownership rights to the article about it on Wikipedia. You are not allowed to edit that article anymore until you confirm you've read, understand and will abide by the above linked policies. You must also make the requisite disclosure per WP:PAID. Any edits to your company page on Wikipedia without making such declarations will result in a block for use of Wikipedia contrary to its policies and guidelines.
