Managing a conflict of interest

edit

  Hello, Danita Moon. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about in the page Brenda Novak, 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, 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. Dharmalion76 (talk) 16:39, 1 October 2019 (UTC)Reply

Could you please make the necessary changes? I'm Brenda Novak's assistant and we are trying to get this portion of her information updated so that it current. Thank you Danita Moon (talk) 16:45, 1 October 2019 (UTC) Danita MoonReply

Are you admitting that this account is a sockpuppet of the Brenda novak account? Additions must adhere to WP:BLP which requires references. Your changes have been blatantly promotional and without any reference. Dharmalion76 (talk) 16:51, 1 October 2019 (UTC)Reply

I'm new to updating Wikipedia so this is a learning process for me. How do I show the reference? Danita Moon (talk) 16:58, 1 October 2019 (UTC) Danita MoonReply

Please answer the question: Are you admitting that this account is a sockpuppet of the Brenda novak account? Dharmalion76 (talk) 16:59, 1 October 2019 (UTC)Reply

No I am not. Danita Moon (talk) 17:01, 1 October 2019 (UTC) Danita MoonReply

So you are two different people who each claim to be Novak's assistant? And make the exact same edits? Dharmalion76 (talk) 17:03, 1 October 2019 (UTC)Reply

No I'm the same person but I thought the information wouldn't update because I was on the main login page. If I need to delete this account and just use the one account then that's what I'll do. We are just trying to figure out how to go about getting the information updated. Is there a spot to submit the information to request an update? How do we provide a source when it's a wording change and updated award information? There's nothing devious here we are just trying to get information updated. Any assistance you can provide that will help us do this correctly and within your guidelines would be greatly appreciated. Danita Moon (talk) 17:12, 1 October 2019 (UTC) Danita MoonReply

You were instructed how on your other talk page as well as up above.
  • avoid editing or creating articles related to you and your circle, your organization, its competitors, projects or products;
  • instead propose changes on the talk pages of affected articles (see the {{request edit}} template);
If you have references which show the changes you would like to make then you should suggest them at the article talk page. Dharmalion76 (talk) 17:23, 1 October 2019 (UTC)Reply

Thank you. I'll give that a try. How do I delete this account so we just have the main one? Danita Moon (talk) 17:26, 1 October 2019 (UTC) Danita MoonReply

The other account is inappropriate because according to WP:USERNAME it would classify as WP:IMPERSONATE as you are not Brenda Novak. You should stick to this account and use the article talk pages. Also as you are a paid employee you must read WP:DISCLOSE and follow those instructions. Dharmalion76 (talk) 17:32, 1 October 2019 (UTC)Reply

Thank you for your assistance and guidance. Danita Moon (talk) 17:37, 1 October 2019 (UTC) Danita MoonReply
