Hello, James Lawrie. 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.
- Hi! The problem we have with NK Forster Guitars is that, under Wikipedia's Terms of Use, people paid to edit articles need to disclose their relationship with their client to help manage potential problems. This doesn't mean that you can't be paid to edit here, (although it is strongly suggested by the COI guidelines that you make suggestions rather than editing the articles directly), just that Wikipedia requires disclosure. Thus it is asked that paid editors add a note to their user page stating the employer, client and affiliation, and ideally to put a small note on the top of the article's talk page - basic instructions are at Wikipedia:Conflict of interest#Paid_editors. - Bilby (talk) 13:03, 11 April 2018 (UTC)
Note
Messages go on users' talk pages and not user pages as you did here. Your final warning and "do not mess with me" is also uncalled for. --NeilN talk to me 13:24, 11 April 2018 (UTC)
Don't mess with me?
Really?--Dlohcierekim (talk) 15:28, 11 April 2018 (UTC)
I’m a very busy guy
Look everyone. I’m a very busy man. I just happen to be very passionate about British guitar companies. I actually work as a checkout clerk at my local Sainsbury’s so there is no conflict of interest going on. James Lawrie (talk) 15:32, 11 April 2018 (UTC)
Warning
Stop removing the {{COI}} template from NK Forster Guitars before you're blocked. It's not "vexatious". Bishonen | talk 17:56, 11 April 2018 (UTC).
Why are you bullying me
This clearly amounts to bullying? Is it because I’m from an ethnic minority? James Lawrie (talk) 18:47, 11 April 2018 (UTC)
