Information icon Hello, LWRFC1. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about on the page London Welsh RFC, 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.

I am not paid any renumeration for any role at London Welsh as my position is a voluntary one. My username is a gamer tag I have used for 20+ years so never realised that it would be in violation. As for conflict of interest this is not something I believe is relevant in these circumstances when discussing the history of a rugby team not in detail an organisation as per my amendments to the article. I fully understand the issues around inaccurate information but when discussing something as important as a sports teams history it is crucial that the facts are correct as the current Wiki for London Welsh RFC is confused between the companies that have been involved (as in the liquidation) and the actual history of the team. Richmond RFC for example has no such confusion. LWRFC1 (talk) 10:53, 14 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
That still requires the disclosures of WP:PAID and WP:COI, I'm afraid. More pressing is your user name. --Deepfriedokra (talk) 12:30, 14 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
