Hello Widefox, Thank you for your message. I am, indeed, an employee of Project Lead The Way. When I edited the already-existing Project Lead The Way page, I was editing for facts and accuracy. However, I understand that this may seem as though I've violated the conflict of interest policy. I want to ensure that I do not do this, but I would also like to make changes that accurately reflect our organization. For example, the program names are no longer what they are listed on the page. Pathway To Engineering is now just PLTW Engineering; GAteway To Technology is now just PLTW Gateway; and we've added PLTW Launch and PLTW Computer Science. I would like to change these. How do I go about making changes without causing concerns, and how do we eliminate the "concerns" listed at the top of the Project Lead The Way wiki page? The page existed long before I edited it - most likely created by a non-affiliated individual. Many thanks.

Managing a conflict of interest

edit

  Hello, PLTWjennifer. We welcome your contributions to Wikipedia, but if you are affiliated with some of the people, places or things you have written about in the article Project Lead the Way, you may have a conflict of interest or close connection to the subject.

All editors are required to comply with Wikipedia's neutral point of view content policy. People who are very close to a subject often have a distorted view of it, which may cause them to inadvertently edit in ways that make the article either too flattering or too disparaging. People with a close connection to a subject are not absolutely prohibited from editing about that subject, but they need to be especially careful about ensuring their edits are verified by reliable sources and writing with as little bias as possible.

If you are very close to a subject, here are some ways you can reduce the risk of problems:

  • Avoid or exercise great caution when editing or creating articles related to you, your organization, or its competitors, as well as projects and products they are involved with.
  • Be cautious about deletion discussions. Everyone is welcome to provide information about independent sources in deletion discussions, but avoid advocating for deletion of articles about your competitors.
  • Avoid linking to the Wikipedia article or website of your organization in other articles (see Wikipedia:Spam).
  • Exercise great caution so that you do not accidentally breach Wikipedia's content policies.

Please familiarize yourself with relevant content policies and guidelines, especially those pertaining to neutral point of view, verifiability of information, and autobiographies. Note that Wikipedia's terms of use require disclosure of your employer, client, and affiliation with respect to any contribution for which you receive, or expect to receive, compensation.

For information on how to contribute to Wikipedia when you have a conflict of interest, please see our frequently asked questions for organizations. Thank you. Widefox; talk 12:35, 17 November 2014 (UTC)Reply
