Managing a conflict of interest
editHello, Scholar.me.Squad. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about on the page Draft:JOBSwithDOD, 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 article subjects for more information. We ask that you:
- avoid editing or creating articles about yourself, your family, friends, colleagues, company, organization, clients, or competitors;
- propose changes on the talk pages of affected articles (you can use the {{edit COI}} template)—don't forget to give details of reliable sources supporting your suggestions;
- 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 Wikipedia:Spam § External link spamming);
- 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. DoubleGrazing (talk) 05:53, 27 July 2024 (UTC)
- Dear DoubleGrazing, I am not being paid or compensated in anyway by JOBSwithDOD, I do not work for JOBSwithDOD. I work for a non-profit think thank that does U.S. policy work and I am a fundraiser at that organization. Scholar.me.Squad (talk) 09:24, 27 July 2024 (UTC)
- Is your editing in any way related to your job or job duties? How did you come to edit about JOBSwithDOD?
- Your username suggests that this is a group account("squad"). Are you the only one with access to this account? 331dot (talk) 09:30, 27 July 2024 (UTC)
- Thank you for guiding me on this, I have updated my username. I should have read the Wikipedia policies and selected a username more carefully. Scholar.me.Squad (talk) 09:35, 27 July 2024 (UTC)
- I work at a U.S. policy nonprofit think tank in Washington DC. My professional work in no way is related to my work. I come from a family wherein my father and five of my uncles have served in the military and worked across the defense industry, though I have not worked in either. It is an interest of mine, a hobby to study and follow thematic topics of interest related to the defense industry, their hiring and recruiting practices and the like. I have been paying careful attention to the Defense Business Board (https://dbb.defense.gov/Board-Members/Board-Members-Bio-view/Article/3158979/jennifer-mcclure/) and it's study recently completed that they will be revamping their civilian hiring and recruiting practices (https://dbb.defense.gov/Portals/35/Documents/Meetings/2023/March%2017%202023/Talent%20Pipeline%20Slide%20Deck%20as%20of%20MAR%2017.pdf) it's quite interesting; at least, for me. I have spent time since the DBB released such findings in their report studying the current landscape of DoD Civilian Hiring and what options exist at present for the DoD. In doing such research, I learned about the business JOBSwithDOD.com and believe that there is little reference to JOBSwithDOD.com but it should be documented.

- Also, editing for the purpose of advertising, publicising, or promoting anyone or anything is not permitted. Thank you for advising on this. Indeed, I am not engaged in any of these practices and will be careful to avoid such practices. Kindly. Scholar.me.Squad (talk) 09:43, 27 July 2024 (UTC)
- Thank you for your answer. I'm not sure if you read my answer to your question at the AFC Desk yet; please do. 331dot (talk) 09:47, 27 July 2024 (UTC)
- Thank you so much, I just read the answer on the AFC and you raise a number of good points. I have gone back through the article in an effort to scrub the article of any citations that would be self referencing and simply have proper citations related to statements made within the Wikipedia page that do not come from the jobswithdod.com website.

- Thank you for your answer. I'm not sure if you read my answer to your question at the AFC Desk yet; please do. 331dot (talk) 09:47, 27 July 2024 (UTC)

- Dear Safari Scribe,
- I hope you are doing well and having a great week. Thank you for helping to refine my article for me. Is it a matter of me needing more citations that meet all four of the criteria. I will do additional research in the months ahead and seek to meet these requirements.
