Hello, EpicSciences. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about in the page Epic Sciences, 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:
- avoid editing or creating articles about yourself, your family, friends, company, organization or competitors;
- propose changes on the talk pages of affected articles (see the {{request edit}} template);
- disclose your conflict of interest when discussing affected articles (see WP:DISCLOSE);
- avoid linking to your organization's website in other articles (see WP:SPAM);
- do your best to comply with Wikipedia's content policies.
In addition, you must 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 WP:PAID).
Also please note that editing for the purpose of advertising, publicising, or promoting anyone or anything is not permitted. Thank you. Amp71 (talk) 00:51, 13 December 2018 (UTC)
Notice of Conflict of interest noticeboard discussion
[edit]
There is currently a discussion at Wikipedia:Conflict of interest/Noticeboard regarding a possible conflict of interest incident with which you may be involved. Thank you. Amp71 (talk) 01:02, 13 December 2018 (UTC)
- Hi Amp71. Thank you for informing me. I am new to the Wikipedia community and am striving to adhere by the guidelines. The undisclosed conflict of interest tag was removed in error (coding is not my nature). I was primarily editing the company history, funding rounds and current offerings. How should I best disclose that I work for Epic Sciences when updating the page?EpicSciences (talk) 01:24, 13 December 2018 (UTC)
- Sorry I haven't been able to respond sooner. Looks like everything is all worked out now. I'll admit that is a bit counterintuitive that Wikipedia stipulates that potential COI should be declared especially if one is editing on behalf of a group, but at the same time usernames shouldn't include the name of a group/organization/company.

Welcome to Wikipedia. I saw that you edited or created Epic Sciences, and I noticed that your username, "EpicSciences", may not comply with our username policy.

Examples of usernames that are not allowed include "XYZ Company", "MyWidgetsUSA.com", and "Foobar Museum of Art". However, you are permitted to use a username that contains such a name if it identifies you individually, such as "Sara Smith at XYZ Company", "Mark at WidgetsUSA", or "FoobarFan87".
Please also note that Wikipedia does not allow accounts to be shared by multiple people, and that you may not advocate for or promote any company, group, organization, product, or website, regardless of your username. Please also read our paid editing policy and our conflict of interest guideline. If you are a single individual and are willing to contribute to Wikipedia in an unbiased manner, please request a change of username, by completing this form, choosing a username that complies with our username policy.
