Managing a conflict of interest

Hello, Yaegermeister420. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about on the page User:Yaegermeister420/sandbox, 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)—don't forget to give details of reliable sources supporting 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, publicising, or promoting anyone or anything is not permitted. Thank you. jlwoodwa (talk) 06:42, 31 July 2024 (UTC)

How do I fix it?

Just trying to make a page for me and my friends group. How do i make it not conflict? 76.8.147.143 (talk) 07:03, 31 July 2024 (UTC)

Making a page for yourself and your friends is inherently conflict-of-interest editing. There is nothing you can do to not have a conflict of interest here. jlwoodwa (talk) 19:18, 31 July 2024 (UTC)

but I'm just litterally giving information about our group. What if I removed the hyperlinks? 76.8.147.143 (talk) 20:52, 31 July 2024 (UTC)

Please read Wikipedia:Conflict of interest. Writing about yourself and your friends is by definition a conflict of interest. jlwoodwa (talk) 20:53, 31 July 2024 (UTC)
