Hello, MT Bentley. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places, or things you have written about on Wikipedia, you may have a conflict of interest (COI). Editors with a COI may be unduly influenced by their connection to the topic, and it is important when editing Wikipedia articles that such connections be completely transparent. See the conflict of interest guideline and FAQ for organizations for more information. In particular, we ask that you please:
- avoid editing or creating articles related to you and your family, friends, school, company, club, or organization, as well as any competing companies' projects or products;
- instead, you are encouraged to propose changes on the Talk pages of affected article(s) (see the {{request edit}} template);
- when discussing affected articles, disclose your COI (see WP:DISCLOSE);
- avoid linking to the Wikipedia article or to the website of your organization in other articles (see WP:SPAM);
- exercise great caution so that you do not violate Wikipedia's content policies.
In addition, you must disclose your employer, client, and affiliation with respect to any contribution for which you receive, or expect to receive, compensation (see WP:PAID).
Please take a few moments to read and review Wikipedia's policies regarding conflicts of interest, especially those pertaining to neutral point of view, sourcing and autobiographies. Thank you.Deb (talk) 12:33, 3 February 2017 (UTC)
- Hi. I can see that. If it had been blatant, I might have blocked you. Just a little guidance, that's all. Deb (talk) 13:03, 3 February 2017 (UTC)
- Ok, given that my firm's products are relatively niche and I doubt if anyone outside the company would have the time or interest to correct (years) out of date information is there a route for me to correct inaccurate information other than adding it to a request queue?

- If you spot something, the best approach would be to contact any editor who appears to be interested in this sector and ask them to help. You can find possible contenders in wikipedian categories such as Wikipedians interested in computer science. Or look at the article History. Deb (talk) 15:19, 3 February 2017 (UTC)
