If you are affiliated with some of the people, places or things you have written about in the article Tom Halstead, you may have a conflict of interest. In keeping with Wikipedia's neutral point of view policy, edits where there is a conflict of interest, or where such a conflict might reasonably be inferred from the tone of the edit and the proximity of the editor to the subject, are strongly discouraged. If you have a conflict of interest, you should 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;
participating in deletion discussions about articles related to your organization or its competitors; and
linking to the Wikipedia article or website of your organization in other articles (see Wikipedia:Spam).

Please familiarize yourself with relevant 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 conflict of interest, please see our frequently asked questions for organizations. For more details about what, exactly, constitutes a conflict of interest, please see our conflict of interest guidelines. Thank you. Whpq (talk) 01:21, 16 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. I noticed that your username may not meet Wikipedia's username policy because Your name appears to be one that is meant to represent an organisation. This is contrary to the Wikipedia user name policy.. If you believe that your username does not violate our policy, please leave a note here explaining why. As an alternative, you may file for a change of username, or you may simply create a new account and use that for editing. Thank you. Whpq (talk) 01:22, 16 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

WHPQ: Thanks. 1. I have nothing to do with Mr. Halstead, have never met the man, and got his bio from a board member who contributes to charities for kids with genetic diseases. 2. I couldn't care less about my user name, and would be happy to change it, including to my real, personal name! There is no conflict of interest in any of this information, as I'm not related to him in any way, and am not part of any organization getting anything from him. All I did was confirm his bio with a secretary so Wiki didn't risk and liability in anything I posted, all of which is public domain sources.

I am not affiliated with the people, places or things written about in this article. Per WH's suggestion, instead of using my favorite physician's charity (2nd only to Doctors without Borders) I'm now simply using my name. I did not realize I'd be criticized for a user name, which can be silly wabbit as far as I care... so here I be... LindaElizabethLevy (talk) 01:32, 16 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]
