Managing a conflict of interest

Information icon Hello, Timeousbeastie. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about on the page UK Web Archive, 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, colleagues, 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 Wikipedia:Conflict of interest#How to disclose a COI);
  • 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 Wikipedia:Paid-contribution disclosure.

Women in Red

Hi there, Timeousbeastie. I have read with interest many of your biographies, especially those about French women historians. As you no doubt intend to continue your coverage of women, you might find it useful to become a member of WikiProject Women in Red where we are trying to chip away at the gender gap on Wikipedia. If you wish to join, you can do so under "New registrations" on this page. Happy editing!-- Ipigott ( talk) 09:45, 14 January 2023 (UTC) reply

Glad to see you have now registered as a member of the project. If you haven't already done so, you might find it useful to look at some of our Essays. Please let me know if you run into any difficulties or need assistance. Happy editing!-- Ipigott ( talk) 09:23, 24 January 2023 (UTC) reply

Women in Red 8th Anniversary
In July 2015 around 15.5% of the English Wikipedia's biographies were about women. As of July 2023, 19.61% of the English Wikipedia's biographies are about women. That's a lot of biographies created in the effort to close the gender gap. Happy 8th Anniversary!

  • disclose your conflict of interest when discussing affected articles (see Wikipedia:Conflict of interest#How to disclose a COI);
  • avoid linking to your organization's website in other articles (see WP:Spam);
  • do your best to comply with Wikipedia's content policies.

If you wish to join, you can do so under "New registrations" on this page. Happy editing!-- Ipigott ( talk) 09:45, 14 January 2023 (UTC) reply

Women in Red 8th Anniversary
In July 2015 around 15.5% of the English Wikipedia's biographies were about women. As of July 2023, 19.61% of the English Wikipedia's biographies are about women. That's a lot of biographies created in the effort to close the gender gap. Happy 8th Anniversary!
