Editing
editHi Dbair91! I gather that you may have been doing some editing recently where you have a conflict of interest. Generally, Wikipedia strongly discourages people from doing so, especially where the editing relates to advocacy. If you can, it would work well if you were to follow current best practise, which is to recommend changes on the talk pages of the articles concerned rather than make them yourself. But if this isn't possible, it would be great if you were to acknowledge when you have a conflict of interest on the talk pages - that way we know that everything is upfront and transparent, which helps a lot. If you would like to know more, the Wikipedia:Plain and simple conflict of interest guide is a really good resource that may assist. - Bilby (talk) 05:23, 11 January 2014 (UTC)
- I don't understand. What page or pages is this in reference to? Dbair91 (talk) 20:33, 11 January 2014 (UTC)
- The main one would be Yaakov Lemmer. At the moment, editing with a conflict of interest - such as where you are the subject or employed by the subject, especially if yo are being paid to edit Wikipedia - isn't explicitly banned, although it is very strongly discouraged. However, best practise is to make clear that you do have a conflict of interest on the talk page of the article, which provides some transparency. At any rate, I think it is something worth considering. - Bilby (talk) 01:23, 12 January 2014 (UTC)
