Managing a conflict of interest

Hello, Tacokid123. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about on the page Julian Hanshaw, 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. Tacyarg (talk) 18:11, 4 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Tacyarg. Many thanks for the contact regarding the updating of the page with my newly published book. I absolutely wish to comply with Wikipedia's content policies but I'm genuinely unsure how I go about keeping the page up to date and not have a COI? I thought as long as the information was for professional purposes, in my case with citable a publisher and contributors, it would be permissible.

I'm reluctant to ask any of my peers to update my page as honestly, most, unfortunately are not on Wikipedia and it also states to avoid editing or creating articles about colleagues.

Hope you may help?

Best
