Hi Bamullen. I spend time working on conflict of interest issues here in Wikipedia, along with my regular editing, which is mostly about health and medicine. I am not an administrator. [[Special:Contributions/Bamullen|Your edits to date]] are promotional with respect to robotic magnetic navigation and the associated society. Lots of people come to Wikipedia with some sort of conflict of interest and are not aware of how the editing community defines and manages conflict of interest. I'm giving you notice of our Conflict of Interest guideline and Terms of Use, and will have some comments and requests for you below. |

[[File:Information.svg|25px|alt=Information icon]] Hello, Bamullen. We [[Wikipedia:Welcoming committee/Welcome to Wikipedia|welcome]] your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things [[Special:Contributions/Bamullen|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 '''[[Wikipedia:Conflict of interest|conflict of interest guideline]]''' and [[Wikipedia:FAQ/Organizations|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 {{tl|request edit}} template); |
|||
* '''disclose''' your COI when discussing affected articles (see [[Wikipedia:Conflict of interest#How to disclose a COI|WP:DISCLOSE]]); |
|||
*'''avoid linking''' to your organization's website in other articles (see [[Wikipedia:Spam|WP:SPAM]]); |

*'''do your best''' to comply with Wikipedia's [[Wikipedia:Core content policies|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 [[Wikipedia:Paid-contribution disclosure|WP:PAID]]). |

Also please note that editing for the purpose of advertising, publicising, or promoting anyone or anything is not permitted.

Wikipedia is a widely-used reference work and managing conflict of interest is essential for ensuring the integrity of Wikipedia and retaining the public's trust in it. Unmanaged conflicts of interest can also lead to people behaving in ways that violate our behavioral policies and cause [[WP:DISRUPTION|disruption]] in the normal editing process. Managing conflict of interest well, also protects conflicted editors ''themselves'' - please see [[WP:Wikipedia is in the real world]], and [[Conflict-of-interest editing on Wikipedia]] for some guidance and stories about people who have brought bad press upon themselves through unmanaged conflict of interest editing. |
|||
As in academia, COI is managed here in two steps - disclosure and a form of peer review. Please note that there is no bar to being part of the Wikipedia community if you want to be involved in articles where you have a conflict of interest; there are just some things we ask you to do (and if you are paid, some things you need to do). |
|||
Disclosure is the most important, and first, step. While I am not asking you to disclose your identity (anonymity is strictly protecting by our [[WP:OUTING]] policy) would you please disclose if you have some connection with the Society for Cardiac Robotic Navigation or comapanies that work in the space, directly or through a third party (e.g. a PR agency or the like)? You can answer how ever you wish (giving personally identifying information or not), but if there is a ''connection'', please disclose it, and if you are editing for pay or the expectation of being paid, you must disclose that. After you respond (and you can just reply below), if it is relevant I can walk you through how the "peer review" part happens and then, if you like, I can provide you with some more general orientation as to how this place works -- and then some yet more specific orientation with regard to editing about health and medicine in Wikipedia. Please reply here, just below, to keep the discussion in one place. Thanks! [[User:Jytdog|Jytdog]] ([[User talk:Jytdog|talk]]) 14:44, 20 July 2018 (UTC) |

Conflict of interest in Wikipedia
Hi Bamullen. I spend time working on conflict of interest issues here in Wikipedia, along with my regular editing, which is mostly about health and medicine. I am not an administrator. Your edits to date are promotional with respect to robotic magnetic navigation and the associated society. Lots of people come to Wikipedia with some sort of conflict of interest and are not aware of how the editing community defines and manages conflict of interest. I'm giving you notice of our Conflict of Interest guideline and Terms of Use, and will have some comments and requests for you below.
Hello, Bamullen. 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 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.

Wikipedia is a widely-used reference work and managing conflict of interest is essential for ensuring the integrity of Wikipedia and retaining the public's trust in it. Unmanaged conflicts of interest can also lead to people behaving in ways that violate our behavioral policies and cause disruption in the normal editing process. Managing conflict of interest well, also protects conflicted editors themselves - please see WP:Wikipedia is in the real world, and Conflict-of-interest editing on Wikipedia for some guidance and stories about people who have brought bad press upon themselves through unmanaged conflict of interest editing.
As in academia, COI is managed here in two steps - disclosure and a form of peer review. Please note that there is no bar to being part of the Wikipedia community if you want to be involved in articles where you have a conflict of interest; there are just some things we ask you to do (and if you are paid, some things you need to do).
Disclosure is the most important, and first, step. While I am not asking you to disclose your identity (anonymity is strictly protecting by our WP:OUTING policy) would you please disclose if you have some connection with the Society for Cardiac Robotic Navigation or comapanies that work in the space, directly or through a third party (e.g. a PR agency or the like)? You can answer how ever you wish (giving personally identifying information or not), but if there is a connection, please disclose it, and if you are editing for pay or the expectation of being paid, you must disclose that.
