Conflict of interest

[edit]

Information icon Hello, EmmaNauticalStripes. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places, or things you have written about in the article Family Building Society, you may have a conflict of interest (COI). Editors with a COI may be unduly influenced by their connection to the topic, and it is important when editing Wikipedia articles that such connections be completely transparent. See the conflict of interest guideline and FAQ for organizations for more information. In particular, we ask that you please:

  • avoid editing or creating articles related to you and your family, friends, school, company, club, or organization, as well as any competing companies' projects or products;
  • instead, you are encouraged to propose changes on the Talk pages of affected article(s) (see the {{request edit}} template);
  • when discussing affected articles, disclose your COI (see WP:DISCLOSE);
  • avoid linking to the Wikipedia article or to the website of your organization in other articles (see WP:SPAM);
  • exercise great caution so that you do not violate 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).

Please take a few moments to read and review Wikipedia's policies regarding conflicts of interest, especially those pertaining to neutral point of view, sourcing and autobiographies. Thank you. Just Chilling (talk) 13:41, 17 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I have reverted your edits because you have made substantial excisions of sourced content without good reason being specified. This should not be done without consensus on the talk page, particularly as you are obviously associated with the organisation. If facts, for example the names of partners or the key products, are out of date then it is quite in order to update them but the changes must be backed up by reliable, independent sources. Useful advice is given in WP:ORG,WP:RS and WP:CITE. The result of your editing, removing the criticism of the products in particular, was a promotional article that would have been liable to deletion. If you intend to make further edits please follow the guidance in the section above and, importantly, propose large scale changes at Talk:Family Building Society and seek consensus to the changes.
