Welcome!

[edit]

Hello, NeilThomsonCA, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions.

I noticed that one of the first articles you edited appears to be dealing with a topic with which you may have a conflict of interest. In other words, you may find it difficult to write about that topic in a neutral and objective way, because you are, work for, or represent, the subject of that article. Your recent contributions may have already been undone for this very reason.

To reduce the chances of your contributions being undone, you might like to draft your revised article before submission, and then ask me or another editor to proofread it. See our help page on userspace drafts for more details. If the page you created has already been deleted from Wikipedia, but you want to save the content from it to use for that draft, don't hesitate to ask anyone from this list and they will copy it to your user page.

One rule we do have in connection with conflicts of interest is that accounts used by more than one person will unfortunately be blocked from editing. Wikipedia generally does not allow editors to have usernames which imply that the account belongs to a company or corporation. If you have a username like this, you should request a change of username or create a new account. (A name that identifies the user as an individual within a given organization may be OK.)

In addition, if you receive, or expect to receive, compensation for any contribution you make, you must disclose your employer, client, and affiliation to comply with our terms of use and our policy on paid editing.

Here are some pages that you might find helpful:

I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Please sign your messages on talk pages using four tildes (~~~~); this will automatically insert your username and the date. If you need help, check out Wikipedia:Questions, ask me on my talk page, or ask your question on this page and then place {{Help me}} before the question.

If you are editing on behalf of Mark Russell, you still have a conflict of interest and must disclose this fact. shoy (reactions) 15:32, 27 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Notice of Conflict of interest noticeboard discussion

[edit]

Information icon 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. shoy (reactions) 21:00, 27 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Hello
Many thanks for this information. I am trying to correct and update factual information, no more, and make the page correct for users.
Any advice on how to do that simply would be appreciated.
Yes I acknowledge this is a COI as I work for Church Army.
Could someone review the edits that I made and consider making them please so that Wiki is correct rather than giving misleading information?
Neil
Thank you for making this disclosure. I have added the {{request edit}} template to the message you left at Talk:Church Army to attract the attention of a third party editor to review your proposed changes.
Are you paid by this organization? The distinction is an important one, as Wikipedia requires users to disclose all paid contributions when editing on behalf of their employers or clients. --Drm310 🍁 (talk) 05:31, 30 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Information icon Hello and welcome to Wikipedia. When you add content to talk pages and Wikipedia pages that have open discussion (but never when editing articles), such as at Talk:Church Army, please be sure to sign your posts. There are two ways to do this. Either:

  1. Add four tildes ( ~~~~ ) at the end of your comment, or
  2. With the cursor positioned at the end of your comment, click on the signature button located above the edit window.

This will automatically insert a signature with your username or IP address and the time you posted the comment. This information is necessary to allow other editors to easily see who wrote what and when.

Thank you. Drm310 🍁 (talk) 05:28, 30 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
