  Hello and welcome to Wikipedia. When you add content to talk pages and Wikipedia pages that have open discussion (but never when editing articles), please be sure to sign your posts. There are two ways to do this. Either:

  1. Add four tildes ( ~~~~ ) at the end of your comment, or
  2. With the cursor positioned at the end of your comment, click on the signature button   located above the edit window.

This will automatically insert a signature with your username or IP address and the time you posted the comment. This information is necessary to allow other editors to easily see who wrote what and when.

Thank you. 331dot (talk) 13:44, 5 December 2019 (UTC)Reply

OK, thanks for the heads up, trying it out now. --Bbernardos (talk) 14:15, 5 December 2019 (UTC)Reply

Congratulations – it worked!   CiaPan (talk) 14:52, 5 December 2019 (UTC)Reply
BTW, when you reply to someone, look at the number of colons in front of their entry and use one colon more in front of yours. That makes an increasing indentation which eases following the thread. --CiaPan (talk) 14:52, 5 December 2019 (UTC)Reply

Managing a conflict of interest

edit

  Hello, Bbernardos. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about in the page Andrew Zerzan, 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 organizations for more information. We ask that you:

  • avoid editing or creating articles about yourself, your family, friends, colleagues, company, organization or competitors;
  • propose changes on the talk pages of affected articles (you can use the {{request edit}} template);
  • 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 WP:Spam);
  • 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. bonadea contributions talk 12:05, 7 December 2019 (UTC)Reply

Single article editor?

edit

When people register with Wikipedia and then edit only one article, the question arises as to whether their relationship to the topic is paid or conflict of interest. If you do not have a relationship of that nature, should state so here. If you do, then declare on your user page, per WP:PAID or WP:COI. David notMD (talk) 13:32, 7 December 2019 (UTC)Reply

   Hello David,
   I don't have a relationship with the source. I came across his work when researching sim card fraud in connection with mobile banking and cryptocurrency use. 
   I liked what I saw Thanks --Bbernardos (talk) 14:05, 7 December 2019 (UTC)Reply
