Conflict of interest
[edit]
Welcome to Wikipedia. If you are affiliated with some of the people, places or things you have written about in the article Samurai Sam's Teriyaki Grill, you may have a conflict of interest. In keeping with Wikipedia's neutral point of view policy, edits where there is a conflict of interest, or where such a conflict might reasonably be inferred, are strongly discouraged. If you have a conflict of interest, you should avoid or exercise great caution when:
- editing or creating articles related to you, your organization, or its competitors, as well as projects and products they are involved with;
- participating in deletion discussions about articles related to your organization or its competitors; and
- linking to the Wikipedia article or website of your organization in other articles (see Wikipedia:Spam).
Please familiarize yourself with relevant policies and guidelines, especially those pertaining to neutral point of view, verifiability of information, and autobiographies.
For information on how to contribute to Wikipedia when you have a conflict of interest, please see our frequently asked questions for organizations. Thank you. —C.Fred (talk) 22:54, 19 July 2010 (UTC)
- I'm not saying that any of your edits were problematic; I just wanted to make sure you knew the COI guidelines. It sounds like you already did, since you'd been in touch with somebody via email. Thank you for being one step ahead of the game and having checked that out in advance! —C.Fred (talk) 23:16, 19 July 2010 (UTC)
