editIf you have a close connection to some of the people, places or things you have written about in the article Witness Justice, you may have a conflict of interest. In keeping with Wikipedia's neutral point of view policy, edits where there is a conflict of interest, or where such a conflict might reasonably be inferred from the tone of the edit and the proximity of the editor to the subject, are strongly discouraged. If you have a conflict of interest, you should avoid or exercise great caution when:
- editing articles related to you, your organization, or its competitors, as well as projects and products they are involved with;
- participating in deletion discussions about articles related to your organization or its competitors;
- linking to the Wikipedia article or website of your organization in other articles (see Wikipedia:Spam);
- and you must always:
- avoid breaching relevant policies and guidelines, especially neutral point of view, verifiability, and autobiography.
For information on how to contribute to Wikipedia when you have conflict of interest, please see Wikipedia:Business' FAQ. For more details about what constitutes a conflict of interest, please see Wikipedia:Conflict of Interest. Thank you. Fabrictramp (talk) 00:34, 10 January 2008 (UTC)
Dear Helga To begin with, please read the above advice from another contributor, who points out that you have a conflict of interest. I had another look at the deleted article, and I see that almost every sentence contains either praise for the organisation or a reason why people should use it. This is not what wikipedia is about. An organisation doesn't have to be commercial to "advertise" its services. See Wikipedia:Spam for more information about this. If you want to create a new article about Witness Justice, please bear in mind the guidelines on Wikipedia:Neutral point of view and Wikipedia:Notability. Then have another go. If the article has a different tone and conforms to all the guidelines, it won't be deleted. Deb (talk) 16:58, 2 April 2008 (UTC)
