Managing a conflict of interest
[edit] Hello, Kghakim. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about on the page George Hakim, 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 organizations 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);
- 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, publicising, or promoting anyone or anything is not permitted. Thank you. AntiDionysius (talk) 19:34, 12 September 2023 (UTC)
- Hello AntiDionysius,
- Thank you for bringing to my attention the guidelines concerning conflicts of interest on Wikipedia. I understand the importance of ensuring that content remains objective and factual. My intention was to provide information about our family business brand, as I felt it was missing from the platform. I acknowledge that my initial content may have appeared promotional in nature since it was largely derived from our website.
- I want to express my gratitude for the edits you made to the page. Your corrections not only align with Wikipedia's style but also provide me with a clearer understanding of the desired tone and approach. I appreciate the time and effort you invested in maintaining the integrity of the content.
- Going forward, I am committed to adhering strictly to Wikipedia's content policies. I will focus on maintaining an objective tone, avoid promotional language, and ensure the content is accurate and verifiable. To ensure transparency and alignment with Wikipedia's guidelines, I will make use of the talk pages for proposing changes and disclose any potential conflicts of interest.
- Thank you for your understanding, guidance, and valuable contributions.
- Best regards,
