Managing a conflict of interest

[edit]

Information icon Hello, 98.97.32.199. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about on the page GrapheneOS, 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:

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. Thank you. Yae4 (talk) 11:53, 1 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Yae4,
I have no conflict of interest and I'm not quite sure why you would assume I do.
Kind regards. 98.97.32.199 (talk) 18:24, 1 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Oh - I am the same user as 71.212.97.11 and 75.172.38.252. My IP address has been fluctuating as I've been in the process of switching home ISPs these last few days but should remain steady now. This may have caused the confusion, apologies. 98.97.32.199 (talk) 18:39, 1 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
At some point, I too was about to ask if you have undisclosed connections to GrapheneOS (you seem to have a lot of knowledge from involvement or a device with GrapheneOS installed for expressing statements and deeper knowledge of the subject on the talk page), or issue the same notice as above. But okay. 84.250.14.116 (talk) 20:11, 1 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Primarily the nature of your comments, but there is also the geolocate of your IP, and what I've read about the kind of software used there, if you get my drift. -- Yae4 (talk) 13:13, 2 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Seattle? I don't catch your drift, no. 98.97.36.93 (talk) 06:55, 5 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
If this is a shared IP address, and you did not make the edits referred to above, consider creating an account for yourself or logging in with an existing account so that you can avoid further irrelevant notices.

I do not want to reply in that talk page discussion, due to constant derailing of talk discussions to off-topic on this subject (it's distracting). For me, it's also a timewaste to argue and rehearse about the subject, so I try to avoid discussing it or give it any more recognition on the talk page. But here's my opinion: I would like to give it due weight in "Controversies" or "Relations with other projects" section without unsubstantiated association to the "open source" source model, but the sources given have not been adequate for verification in previous discussions and both me and User:Yae4 have been reverted previously for it, so I'm done there. As for the compatibility table, it still needs work to be more educational. 84.250.14.116 (talk) 20:29, 1 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
