Managing a conflict of interest

Hello, RakedSoul504. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about on the page Draft:Cajun Fire Brewing Company, 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, clients, 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. Fancy Refrigerator ^(talk) 03:44, 6 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Racial bias on Wikipedia

This is a draft that I have not submitted for review as of yet (to my knowledge). However, I find the response message rather troubling. Upon reviewing multiple pages I became aware of significant lack of contributions of Black American narratives to craft beer manufacturing in the United States. I would ask, if I am not a credible source to supply non-bias information to be reviewed with added sited references, then who. I have scoured countless articles which have all but neglected to highlight my own company and other African-Americans in the craft beer landscape of North America. Again, I have not submitted the draft articles that I am working on, however, I was compelled to create an account and provide historical context to this industry that I operate within. Please advise, to my knowledge I read and followed the code of ethics regarding contributing articles, unless I am mistaken. RakedSoul504 (talk) 04:37, 6 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Wikipedia is not a business directory and a place to “highlight” your own company. Please see what Wikipedia is not and familiarize yourself with the guideline on conflict of interest (COI) editing. Fancy Refrigerator ^(talk) 05:26, 6 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
