Managing a conflict of interest

[edit]

Information icon Hello, 69.116.203.31. 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 article subjects for more information. We ask that you:

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.

Also, editing for the purpose of advertising, publicising, or promoting anyone or anything is not permitted. Thank you. Kingsmasher678 (talk) 19:19, 26 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

If you believe this message is given in error, please let me know. Kingsmasher678 (talk) 19:20, 26 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Yes this COI flag is an error as all I did was update the census data and redirect words to other Wikipedia pages. 69.116.203.31 (talk) 19:32, 26 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Sorry about that, we get a lot of people who edit their hometown or their school with false information.

Totally understandable. Just trying to put my hamlet on the map and improve our visibility within the local area. I will say, I am going to add an area on the Elwood Civic Association as that has been an organization within our local community since 1945. 69.116.203.31 (talk) 16:28, 27 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Sounds great! Let me know if you need help with anything, and make sure to cite your sources. If you ever want someone to look over your edits, let me know!
Also, creating an account really does help keep the suspicion away, since we get a lot of bad faith edits from non registered users, just an FYI!
