Managing a conflict of interest
[edit] Hello, Omicrontrench. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about on the page Mark E. Curry, 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, colleagues, company, organization or competitors;
- propose changes on the talk pages of affected articles (you can use the {{request edit}} template);
- disclose your conflict of interest when discussing affected articles (see Wikipedia:Conflict of interest#How to disclose a COI);
- avoid linking to your organization's website in other articles (see Wikipedia:Spam#External link spamming);
- do your best to comply with Wikipedia's content policies.
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.
Also, editing for the purpose of advertising, publicising, or promoting anyone or anything is not permitted. Thank you. – wallyfromdilbert (talk) 20:30, 14 October 2021 (UTC)

[edit] Please do not add promotional material to Wikipedia, as you did to Mark E. Curry. While objective prose about beliefs, organisations, people, products or services is acceptable, Wikipedia is not a vehicle for soapboxing, advertising or promotion. Please also do not add poorly sourced or unsourced material to articles, and stop removing reliable sources and the content cited to those sources. Considering that you are a single-purpose account repeatedly restoring promotional material while removing reliable sources, the next step will be to report you to an administrator noticeboard for editing with a conflict of interest. – wallyfromdilbert (talk) 21:18, 18 October 2021 (UTC)
- @Wallyfromdilbert: Nothing I added was promotional, you replaced my well written and well sourced revision with something that I would love any admin to compare; I would actually appreciate them visiting this page. Among grammatical and formatting issues you keep adding circular sources, one of them making a claim that references another source which itself doesn't even have that claim contained in it. https://www.thepitchkc.com/mark-curry-named-his-payday-company-after-a-shell-company-in-the-movie-wall-street-and-other-revelations-from-yesterdays-bloomberg-story/ mentions, "*Curry named Geneva-Roth, his first company, after a shell company in the movie Wall Street." and links to https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2014-11-24/payday-loan-fortune-backed-by-medley-found-behind-indian-casino. The bloomberg article neither makes the claim that this is Curry's first company or that he named it after the movie (simply that it shares the name). Please invite an admin to review this page or stop reverting my higher quality version. I also noticed you made a very clearly superfluous and malicious edit to prevent an undo, I am sure an administrator would love to talk to you about that. Thank you for your time.

- Your edits are obviously promotional, and your "circular sources" claims are nonsensical. Feel free to take your concerns to the article's talk page. – wallyfromdilbert (talk) 22:31, 18 October 2021 (UTC)
