[edit]Hello, Cousinjennieblair. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about on the page Death of Timothy Wiltsey, 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:
- avoid editing or creating articles about yourself, your family, friends, colleagues, company, organization, clients, or competitors;
- propose changes on the talk pages of affected articles (you can use the {{edit COI}} template)—don't forget to give details of reliable sources supporting your suggestions;
- 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 Wikipedia:Spam § External link spamming);
- 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.
Also, editing for the purpose of advertising, publicizing, or promoting anyone or anything is not permitted.
Regarding your edits to the article Death of Timothy Wiltsey specifically, please be reminded that it is required for every information added to any article to have a reliable source confirming it, to ensure the information is verifiable (i.e. someone researching the article is able to verify this information is true outside of Wikipedia). unfortunately, this means that you as a family member of the deceased would not be able to simply add this information to the article directly regardless of whether it is true or not, as you would have to first run it through say, a reputable news organization first to make sure the information remains verifiably true.
Thank you. 💜 melecie talk - 06:06, 9 September 2024 (UTC)
