Hello, RHcreate. 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:

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), including links or details of reliable sources that support 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. Thank you. VViking_TalkEdits 20:52, 20 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hi VViking: thanks for the helpful edits to bring the Mary Hall Surface page in line with Wikipedia guidelines. As a new contributor, any errors I made were from lack of experience, not a disregard for policy. I do tangentially know the subject, although not closely. I need to indicate that COI on my talk page, correct? Once that's done, is it possible to get the tag on the page removed or adjusted ("A major contributor to this article appears to have a close connection with its subject.")? Please advise. Thanks!
