Hi Stephenwoore, re your recent large addition, I fear that this breaches Wikipedia's policy on Wikipedia:Copyright violations. You'll need to paraphrase that material. Thanks. Martinevans123 (talk) 18:35, 26 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I'd advise you revert yourself before that entire section is revert-deleted for copy-vio. Thanks. Martinevans123 (talk) 18:58, 26 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Since you advise it I will shorten the addition, but re copyright, I am Vice-Chairman of Woore Neighbourhood Planning Team (www.woorenpt.org.uk Stephen Clifford) and wrote the section of the Plan I have drawn on myself, so I think copyright cannot have been infringed here! Hence the credit I put in.

If you own the copyright and wish to donate the materials to Wikipedia, you need to follow the procedure listed on WP:DCP, though doing so would require you to give up certain rights. That said, paraphrasing would be much preferred. 331dot (talk) 12:15, 27 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Managing a conflict of interest[edit]

Information icon Hello, Stephenwoore. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about in the article Woore, you may have a conflict of interest (COI). Editors with a COI may be unduly influenced by their connection to the topic. Editing for the purpose of advertising or promotion is not permitted. 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, company, organization or competitors;
  • propose changes on the talk pages of affected articles (see the {{request edit}} template);
  • disclose your COI when discussing affected articles (see WP:DISCLOSE);
  • avoid linking to your organization's website in other articles (see WP:SPAM);
  • do your best to comply with Wikipedia's content policies.

In addition, you must disclose your employer, client, and affiliation with respect to any contribution for which you receive, or expect to receive, compensation (see WP:PAID). Thank you. 331dot (talk) 12:13, 27 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
