Conflict of Interest (second notification)
[edit]It appears you may have a Conflict of Interest WP:COI, as it seems that you are here solely to add links, bare urls and promotional material in relation to the organization, Public Art and Public Places, or to writings the director of that organization. See WP:PROMO Wikipedia requires that editors disclose whether they have a paid or unpaid conflict of interest, otherwise they may lose editing privileges. Information on how to disclose a COI, and how to declare on your user page and articles can also be found on the WP:COI link. Thank you. Netherzone (talk) 16:23, 13 September 2020 (UTC)
- This post, together with your account's previous name, also raise suspicions. Barte (talk) 18:04, 13 September 2020 (UTC)
- @Barte: It seems the first warning was in 2014. See: [1] Netherzone (talk) 16:51, 14 September 2020 (UTC)
- Wow. That warning came just two months before Wikimedia Foundation's June 16, 2014 change to its Terms of Use re: paid editing. And it's another self-identification of the account. Not every subsequent edit violates the Terms, but a number of them seem to. Barte (talk) 17:31, 14 September 2020 (UTC)

You still have not adequately responded or taken action to the inquiry regarding your appearance as an undisclosed paid editor. If you make any additional edits without complying, you may be blocked from editing. Editing while logged out to add spam links to your organization, Public Art in Public Places, or to your own self-cites is not permitted. See WP:LOUTSOCK Netherzone (talk) 03:58, 1 June 2023 (UTC)
- Allow me to introduce myself. I am K. M. Williamson, Ph.D., Director of Public Art in Public Places. My staff directed me to your recent email, which prompted our review of the various errors and misleading comments your “Netherzone” persona has posted about Public Art in Public Places on Wikipedia.
- I respectfully object to your claim that “the director”, myself, has made any contributions to Wikipedia. Neither I nor my staff have ever made any such contributions to Wikipedia regarding Public Art in Public Places or its data archive: it is against our policy. A number of years ago we objected to erroneous claims and uninformed assumptions being made by some Wikipedia editors in response to a Wikipedia listing on our organization proposed by another Wikipedia editor, and we therefore made a formal request to have the Wikipedia listing on Public Art in Public Places removed, to safeguard our organization’s reputation. We noted at that time that “Netherzone” was an active promoter of much of this misinformation.
- After reviewing “Netherzone’s” subsequent Wikipedia comments, we take issue with “Netherzone’s” ongoing bias, lately the pejorative claim that Public Art in Public Places is “only a blog”, and the oddly biased claim that the Google Arts & Culture online platform is “dubious.”
- Since “Netherzone” persists in remaining unfamiliar with our organization and the Google Cultural Institute, I direct “Netherzone” and other Wikipedia editors exposed to such comments to the following:
- Public Art in Public Places is a not-for-profit, non-commercial, arts data organization establishing and managing an extensive open and public online public art data archive for the Sothern California and Hawai’i regions, in partnership with the Google Cultural Institute, its Google Arts & Culture program, and Google Maps. As of 2023, the Public Art in Public Places archive contains data on more than 5,000 public artworks in more than 250 cities.
- We hope and expect that “Netherzone” will correct the errors it has posted on Wikipedia regarding myself as Director and regarding the Public Art in Public Places organization, and that “Netherzone” will also assist in notifying other Wikipedia editors who have been misled by what we view as misinformation that is damaging to our ethical and public-spirited mission and reputation.

- Hello, Mx. Williamson, I'm not sure what email you are referring to, as no email was sent by me.
- Could you please explain this: [[2]], this:[3], and these contributions:Special:Contributions/M Na zdravi where you repeatedly self-cited your organization. For additional history on the matter there is this: Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Public Art in Public Places. Netherzone (talk) 23:01, 1 June 2023 (UTC)
- Also see this[4] as it seems the problem of your conflict of interest editing goes back to 2014. Netherzone (talk) 23:21, 1 June 2023 (UTC)
