Managing a conflict of interest
editHello, Suedewave. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about on the page Suede (singer), 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 organizations for more information. We ask that you:
- avoid editing or creating articles about yourself, your family, friends, colleagues, company, organization or competitors;
- propose changes on the talk pages of affected articles (you can use the {{request edit}} template);
- 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. Firefangledfeathers (talk) 17:52, 7 September 2021 (UTC)

editYou currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on Suede (singer). This means that you are repeatedly changing content back to how you think it should be although other editors disagree. Users are expected to collaborate with others, to avoid editing disruptively, and to try to reach a consensus, rather than repeatedly undoing other users' edits once it is known that there is a disagreement.
Points to note:
- Edit warring is disruptive regardless of how many reverts you have made;
- Do not edit war even if you believe you are right.
If you find yourself in an editing dispute, use the article's talk page to discuss controversial changes and work towards a version that represents consensus among editors. You can post a request for help at an appropriate noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, it may be appropriate to request temporary page protection. If you engage in an edit war, you may be blocked from editing. Binksternet (talk) 18:09, 4 October 2021 (UTC)
Suede deBronkart here, a.k.a. Suede. No editing war intended. I am an entertainer who goes by my middle name, Suede - single name only. I've asked several times here (and elsewhere) to please help me maintain some privacy by not publishing my birth name. I've had fanatic fans cause me to file restraining orders and have had to hire security because they've tracked my home and my 92 year old mother's home down by finding my birth name. Anywhere I happen to see it published I try to remove it. That's all. I appreciate your support on this detail. I respectfully make that request, please - not to publish it on the page about my professional life as Suede. Thank you SuedeSuedewave (talk) 19:50, 4 October 2021 (UTC)
- Hi Suede, I recommend opening up a discussion at Talk:Suede (singer). You may want to read and then cite WP:BLPPRIVACY which has some guidance on how to handle private info like this. Firefangledfeathers (talk) 20:02, 4 October 2021 (UTC)
