Welcome to Wikipedia. It might not have been your intention, but your recent edit removed maintenance templates from CMA Contiki. When removing maintenance templates, please be sure to either resolve the problem that the template refers to, or give a valid reason for the removal in the edit summary. If this was a mistake, don't worry, as your removal of this template has been reverted. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia, and if you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. Thank you.

Hello Deirdre Moroney. We welcome your contributions to Wikipedia, but if you are affiliated with some of the people, places or things you have written about in the article CMA Contiki, you may have a conflict of interest or close connection to the subject.

All editors are required to comply with Wikipedia's neutral point of view content policy. People who are very close to a subject often have a distorted view of it, which may cause them to inadvertently edit in ways that make the article either too flattering or too disparaging. People with a close connection to a subject are not absolutely prohibited from editing about that subject, but they need to be especially careful about following the reliable sources and writing with as little bias as possible.

If you are very close to a subject, here are some ways you can reduce the risk of problems:

Avoid or exercise great caution when editing or creating articles related to you, your organization, or its competitors, as well as projects and products they are involved with.
Be cautious about deletion discussions. Everyone is welcome to provide information about independent sources in deletion discussions, but avoid advocating for deletion of articles about your competitors.
Avoid linking to the Wikipedia article or website of your organization in other articles (see Wikipedia:Spam).
Exercise great caution so that you do not accidentally breach Wikipedia's content policies.

Please familiarize yourself with relevant content policies and guidelines, especially those pertaining to neutral point of view, verifiability of information, and autobiographies.

For information on how to contribute to Wikipedia when you have a conflict of interest, please see our frequently asked questions for organizations. Thank you. ConcernedVancouverite (talk) 16:29, 11 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Sockpuppetry case

Thanks for email

With regard to the sockpuppetry issue, it's not me you need to convince, I only commented there to say that that I'd blocked one of the accounts involved

Since I imposed the block on the Contiki account, it's not appropriate for me to review the block. The appeal procedure is described in the coloured box.
Even if your appeal is successful, it is very unlikely that you would be permitted to edit an article involving such an obvious conflict of interest.
