Managing a conflict of interest
Hello, Goldabrun. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about on the page Nicholas J. Ayala, 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. You don't need to be paid by them to have a potential conflict of interest. Kj cheetham (talk) 18:45, 31 October 2022 (UTC)
- Hello,
- Thank you so much for the guide. I know Wikipedia is not a place for advertising or promoting anyone. To be honestly, I'm working with this person right now. But he didn't paid me anything. In that case what should I need to do? Do I need to disclosed the paid contribution(on my userpage) or I need to put while editing the article {{request edit}} on talk page ? I didn't create this article as you can see. Even, I don't want to be a paid contributor on Wikipedia. I'm just adding references, Sources, wikilink etc. Please suggest me. I don't want to violate any rules of Wimedia Policies. Thank you.

- Hi, given it's not paid, you don't need to disclosure that on your userpage, but I have disclosed your connection for you on Talk:Nicholas J. Ayala. You may wish to use Template:UserboxCOI on your userpage as well. My recommendation is to make use of Template:Request edit on the talk page for anything other than minor changes, but be aware sometimes it can take a few weeks for someone to respond. You can also ask for further advice at WP:TEAHOUSE if you'd like. Hope that helps. -Kj cheetham (talk) 19:20, 31 October 2022 (UTC)
- Thank you very much for your advice, Sir. I really appreciate for your help. Definitely, I will follow the instruction.
- For now, do I need to change/add anything? Goldabrun (talk) 19:36, 31 October 2022 (UTC)
- Thank you for your understanding. I don't think any further immediate action is needed. -Kj cheetham (talk) 09:42, 1 November 2022 (UTC)

Any other accounts?
Hello Goldabrun. Just checking whether you have edited with any other Wiki accounts? A new account has popped up at Nicholas J. Ayala and I am concerned about WP:SOCKPUPPET. Regards, MrsSnoozyTurtle 21:19, 22 November 2022 (UTC)
- No, I don't have any secondary account. But I can explain this. Actually, I already disclosed my relation between me and Nicholas J. Ayala with Kj cheetham as you can see on my talk page. This edit was made by his wife. I mean Nicholas J. Ayala's wife. Actually, she is only the actual copyright holder of the image. That's why she just made the edit. But I've no relation with the last edit made on the article.
