Managing a conflict of interest
edit
Hello, TiedemannM. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about on the page Mark W. Tiedemann, 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, clients, 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. Tacyarg (talk) 23:56, 26 May 2023 (UTC)
- I appreciate all that, but no one is curating that article on my behalf. I added factual material to update what is there. The person who originally created the page no longer tends to it. My apologies, but I would appreciate the opportunity to keep my own information current.

- Hi again - Wikipedia articles aren't for the benefit of the person the article is about, so please do review and follow the guidelines around conflict of interest outlined above. You can post requests for edits to the article on the article's Talk page using Request Edit. Best wishes, Tacyarg (talk) 09:22, 28 May 2023 (UTC)
