editIn accordance with Wikipedia:Conflict of interest and Wikipedia:Plain and simple conflict of interest guide, I have chosen to disclose that I have a personal connection to this subject. I will spare details, but my main purpose in writing this article is to benefit Wikipedia and its mission. I believe this list is written from a neutral perspective (the content is pretty non-controversial) and has been constructed from independent, reliable sources. The second link above provides the following summary, which I believe I have followed appropriately:
- Be transparent about your conflict of interest ( Done)
- Subjects require significant coverage in independent reliable sources. ( Done)
- Your role is to inform and reference, not promote or sell. ( Done)
- Be extremely cautious about the risks of editing articles about yourself or your clients ( Done|N/A)
- If writing a draft, write without bias, as if you don't work for the company or personally know the subject. ( Done)
- State facts and statistics, don't be vague or general. ( Done)
- Take time to get sources and policy right. ( Done)
- Get neutral, uninvolved, disinterested editors to review your draft. ( Doing...)
- Work with the community and we'll work with you. ( Done)
- Communicate, communicate, communicate. ( Done)
My goal is to have this article promoted to Good article status, eventually. I understand this will require review and assistance from other members of the community, which is great. I invite all to examine this list carefully to make sure the content is fair and accurate. Feel free to contact me if you have any concerns. ---Another Believer (Talk) 20:59, 4 September 2015 (UTC)
