Hello, IDAComms. 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 COI 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, 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).
Also please note that editing for the purpose of advertising, publicising, or promoting anyone or anything is not permitted. Thank you. -- Ed (Edgar181) 15:26, 4 July 2018 (UTC)
You should also read our conflict of interest guideline and be aware that promotional editing is not acceptable regardless of the username you choose.
If your username does not represent a group, organization or website, you may appeal this username block by adding the text {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}} at the bottom of your talk page.
You may simply create a new account, but you may prefer to change your username to one that complies with our username policy, so that your past contributions are associated with your new username. If you would prefer to change your username, you may appeal this username block by adding the text {{unblock-un|new username|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}} at the bottom of your talk page. Please note that you may only request a name that is not already in use, so please check here for a listing of already taken names. Thank you. -- Ed (Edgar181) 15:26, 4 July 2018 (UTC)
Working in Wikipedia
editI understand that you don't like some things that have been happening in Wikipedia but your behavior (yours) has been inappropriate in many ways.
- Your username violates our WP:USERNAME policy and I have requested to have this account soft-blocked until you change the username to something appropriate. (You can use this form or create a new account - I suggest something like "Kevin Sammon at IDA").
- This account also appears to be a sockpuppet or meatpuppet of Corecontent
- Your comments here and here are inappropriate here in WP.
In the meantime please:
- Read Conflict-of-interest editing on Wikipedia and WP:Wikipedia is in the real world
- Read WP:DR, which is our policy on how to appropriately resolve disputes in Wikipedia.
- Disclose if you were using the Corecontent account, or if that was someone else in your office.
