[edit]

I am involved with this organization so I asked on the Wikipedia:Help desk whether it would be appropriate for me to edit this. Answer was:

The relevant guideline is WP:COI. There's no specific rule against editing an article with which you have a conflict of interest, but editors are discouraged from doing so. This is because it's difficult to realize when you've unintentionally inserted POV prose. Minor edits, such as fixing errors and reverting vandalism, are uncontroversial. It's a bit bureaucratic, but the suggested method is to propose changes on the talk page and gain consensus for them. You can use {{edit COI}} to formally request that an uninvolved editor make an edit for you. One important rule is that the WMF's Terms of Use require editors to disclose any paid editing. You should read that part of the ToU carefully if you have received any compensation for editing Wikipedia. NinjaRobotPirate (talk) 10:27 pm, 18 March 2016, last Friday (3 days ago) (UTC−5)

The article didn't actually say much about WRC except that they had a hockey team going on 100 years ago. I updated it (see [1]) and [User:Aloneinthewild]] moved some of it in from my original draft on this talk page. I invite anyone to edit anything that appears to show a WP:COI.

nothing looked controversial so I went ahead and added the changes Aloneinthewild (talk) 23:16, 24 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]
