No disrespect intended to the whale in question, but is he really notable enough for the encyclopedia?--[[User:Dell Adams|Dell Adams]] 02:33, 4 September 2005 (UTC) |

I am glad you placed the COI tag on this article, [[User:Clayoquot|Clayoquot]] - I had wondered about the edits possibly being COI, but am currently embroiled in other things in Wikipedia that kept me from doing further investigation. --[[User:SkagitRiverQueen|SkagitRiverQueen]] ([[User talk:SkagitRiverQueen|talk]]) 21:47, 26 December 2009 (UTC) |

: Thanks for the moral support :) I'm having that [[tl;dr]] feeling too! [[User:Clayoquot|Clayoquot]] ([[User_talk:Clayoquot|talk]] | [[Special:Contributions/Clayoquot|contribs]]) 22:11, 26 December 2009 (UTC) |

Dear Clayoquot et al... I am NOT a regular editor or contributor to Wikipedia, but I am confused about this "Conflict of Interest" tag on my contributions to this entry on the orca Luna, or L98. I was not involved in any way in the Luna effort/crisis, but like a lot of people in the Pacific Northwest had a great interest in the matter and kept an extensive file of television and print media coverage. Upon reading the original entry on Luna, I found it grossly incomplete, particularly as it regarded the critical participation of non-government organizations like OrcaLab and Orca Conservancy -- both of which incidentally I am not a member or donor. I simply felt compelled to complete the entry and to edit inaccurate information. And all of my contributed material is verifiable and in almost every case accompanied by citations of corresponding media sources. As I am new to Wiki, I do not know how to address this flag for alleged COI other than to try to clarify my role in editing this entry. <small><span class="autosigned">—Preceding [[Wikipedia:Signatures|unsigned]] comment added by [[User:mrjoshuawells|mrjoshuawells]] ([[User talk:mrjoshuawells|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/mrjoshuawells|contribs]]) 13:03, 28 December 2009</span></small><!-- Template:Unsigned --> |

:Hi, Joshua. Since Clayoquot is the one who placed the COI tag there, I'll allow him/her to comment on the reasons for the tag. Try not to be alarmed nor take the COI tag as a personal criticism. It's really not anything more than a precaution and a flag that basically says the possibility of COI needs to be examined. Just relax, and I'm sure Clayoquot will be more than willing to answer your questions in time. Have a great day. --[[User:SkagitRiverQueen|SkagitRiverQueen]] ([[User talk:SkagitRiverQueen|talk]]) 21:29, 28 December 2009 (UTC) |

:: Hi everyone, I just got back from a two-day trip. I've left a note at [[Talk:Springer (orca)]] to explain the COI concerns. I'd like to request that the discussion on COI be continued over there, just so that the discussion isn't split into two pages.
