Managing a conflict of interest

edit

  Hello, PowerGridManager. 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. See the conflict of interest guideline and FAQ for organizations for more information. We ask that you:

  • avoid editing or creating articles about yourself, your family, friends, company, organization or competitors;
  • propose changes on the talk pages of affected articles (see the {{request edit}} template);
  • disclose your COI when discussing affected articles (see WP:DISCLOSE);
  • avoid linking to your organization's website in other articles (see WP:SPAM);
  • do your best to comply with Wikipedia's content policies.

In addition, you must 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 WP:PAID).

Also please note that editing for the purpose of advertising, publicising, or promoting anyone or anything is not permitted. Thank you. — Gorthian (talk) 22:45, 29 August 2018 (UTC)Reply

Information to be added or removed: Copperweld is a private company owned by TLH. Explanation of issue: There is confusion about the ownership, and this page is needed to bring clarity. Right now, the only explanation of ownership is on the page called "Fushi Copperweld" which has not existed for over five years. It was formed during the Great Recession, and was subsequently dissolved.

Information to be added or removed: Please delete this Fushi Copperweld page. Some of the content should be moved to the Copperweld page. Explanation of issue: Copperweld is a privately owned company that manufactures specialty wire and cable. I am the manager of the largest segment of the company, the Power Grid. I have been working to update the website, which is new and in a beta state now. Soon, I will prepare a history page. But the story told here at "Fushi Copperweld" is inaccurate, misleading, and seems to be a sort of advertisement for Mr Fu, who briefly owned the company years ago (2011-2013?). It is not the same company today. I hope to help correct this story on the "Copperweld" wiki page with assistance from the community. Please help me! (I am new to wiki.)

Information to be added or removed: Copperweld brand wire has been used for mission critical applications, including automated block signal systems on railways and overhead ground wires for power transmission, since at least 1918. In those early days of electrification of the United States, Copperweld was frequently used for high-tension power conductors instead of copper, steel, or bronze strands, where tensile strength was a more important factor than high conductivity. Explanation of issue: Copperweld is a storied American company that manufactures specialty wire and cable. The firm is owned by THL Credit. This wiki page implies that the company is Chinese. It seems to be a promotional page for Chairman Fu. Please correct this page to reflect the American nature of Copperweld's history and continued tradition today.
