Managing a conflict of interest

[edit]

Information icon Hello, Nwalavalkar786. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about on Wikipedia, 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. Robert McClenon (talk) 14:24, 22 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

User:Nwalavalkar786 - I have moved your article back to draft space because you had not declared your conflict of interest properly. Robert McClenon (talk) 21:42, 22 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
User:Stevey7788 - When I draftified the article, I had not seen that you had reviewed and accepted it. If you still think that it passes review and should be in article space, you may promote it back again. Were you aware that it was a COI draft, and did you take that into account? Robert McClenon (talk) 21:42, 22 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
@Robert McClenon: As an AfC reviewer, I know that the most obvious COI drafts reek of promotional PR language and poor formatting, with many of them focusing on non-notable entities. This one wasn't so obvious. There were only three very neutral-looking paragraphs that were listing dry facts, which is not what corporate spammers usually do. Also, I did some Google searches to check the company's notability, and it's notable under WP:NCORP. But since you've raised these issues and you've been dealing with the draft's creator for quite some time, I'll be happy to leave you to this matter. Thanks for bringing this up. — Stevey7788 (talk) 22:04, 22 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
@Nwalavalkar786: You need to declare your conflict of interest on the talk page of the draft or article, not your user page. After you do so and notify Robert McClenon, your draft should be accepted. — Stevey7788 (talk) 13:25, 25 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
