Hello, I'm Smalljim. I noticed that you made a change to an article, Lindsey Giannini, but you didn't provide a reliable source. It's been removed and archived in the page history for now, but if you'd like to include a citation and re-add it, please do so! If you need guidance on referencing, please see the referencing for beginners tutorial, or if you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you.  —SMALLJIM  22:30, 1 February 2016 (UTC)

Managing a conflict of interest

Hello, Vincentgiannini. 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. In particular, please:

• avoid editing or creating articles related to you and your circle, your organization, its competitors, projects or products;
• instead propose changes on the talk pages of affected articles (see the {{request edit}} template);
• when discussing affected articles, disclose your COI (see WP:DISCLOSE);
• avoid linking to the Wikipedia article or 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 familiarize yourself with relevant policies and guidelines, especially those pertaining to neutral point of view, sourcing and autobiographies. Thank you.  —SMALLJIM  22:31, 1 February 2016 (UTC)

Linny is my niece. I was asked by my brother to update Linny's bio. I entered factual information in a factual fashion. Vincentgiannini (talk) 22:44, 1 February 2016 (UTC)vincentgiannini

Yes, I suspected something like that. It's important that you understand and follow both the above messages (about providing reliable sources and being very cautious in editing this article because of your conflict of interest). The rules they embody are central to how Wikipedia works.  —SMALLJIM  00:00, 2 February 2016 (UTC)

smalljim, you are very loose with your repeated accusations of conflict of interest. Vincentgiannini (talk) 01:10, 2 February 2016 (UTC)vincentgiannini
