No paid advocacy ( talk) (closed: opposed) |
Paid editing policy proposal ( talk) (closed: opposed) |
Conflict of interest limit ( talk) (closed: opposed) |

Editors with a financial conflict of interest (such as business owners and public-relations professionals acting on their behalf) must not edit affected articles directly. They may make suggestions on talk pages and noticeboards, and request edits using the {{ edit COI}} template, so long as they disclose their conflict of interest.
