suggested edits to Australia section
 | Please use the {{help me}} template appropriately. The {{help me}} template is for help in using Wikipedia, not for unrelated issues. If you would like to ask such a question, replace the code {{help me-inappropriate}} on this page with {{help me}} to reactivate the help request. Alternatively, you can also ask your question at the Teahouse, the help desk, or join Wikipedia's Live Help IRC channel to get real-time assistance. |
I potentially have a conflict of interest so would like someone to consider and incorporate these edits please.
- Rather than just Veda in Australia, there are also Experian and Dun & Bradstreet
- It may also be worth adding that the common scores in Australia are:

- @Alex at Creditsavvy: I'm glad to see that you're abiding by the guidelines and choosing not to edit articles directly in which you would have a conflict of interest. That's actually quite refreshing to see. However, the help request template is used for questions related to policy and help in how to edit Wikipedia. This talk page has enough traffic / is watched enough that garnering additional attention through the template is unnecessary. Someone will respond to this who edits here, and possibly incorporate the suggestions you gave. I can understand why you mistakenly use the help request tag in this case, though. No worries.
- I did want to let you know, however, that your username is a violation of Wikipedia policy, as a promotional username. To change your username so as to conform with policy, make a request as the Simple Username Change page. You might also want to check out our policies on conflicts of interest and paid editorship. Since you are a paid employee (and drafting an article on CreditSavvy), you should disclose both your conflict of interest, and that your are a "paid editor" (by default, since you're an employee), on your user page. You're still allowed to edit, including those articles related to your COI / company, but you must disclose your paid editorship on your userpage, and when you do edit, please try to do so neutrally. Just wanted to give you a heads up on the username / paid notice. Good luck on Wikipedia. Quinto Simmaco (talk) 07:49, 15 April 2015 (UTC)
- @Quinto Simmaco: thank you for your helpful reply. You may not realize that several years ago the username policy was changed based on an RFC/N to specifically allow the "Alex at CreditSavvy" form (see WP:CORPNAME). thanks, –xenotalk 00:16, 27 July 2015 (UTC)
