Moreover, I recommend that you read our conflict of interest guideline. If you are a single individual and are willing to contribute to Wikipedia in an unbiased manner, please create a new account or request a username change that complies with our username policy.

Managing a conflict of interest[edit]

Information icon Hello, TechnologyMax92. We welcome your contributions to Wikipedia, but if you are affiliated with some of the people, places or things you have written about in the article Helen Milner (Digital Inclusion), you may have a conflict of interest.

All editors are required to comply with Wikipedia's neutral point of view content policy. People who are very close to a subject often have a distorted view of it, which may cause them to inadvertently edit in ways that make the article either too flattering or too disparaging. People with a close connection to a subject are not absolutely prohibited from editing about that subject, but they need to be especially careful about ensuring their edits are verified by reliable sources and writing with as little bias as possible.

If you are very close to a subject, here are some ways you can reduce the risk of problems:

  • Avoid or exercise great caution when editing or creating articles related to you, your organization, or its competitors, as well as projects and products they are involved with.
  • Avoid linking to the Wikipedia article or website of your organization in other articles (see Wikipedia:Spam).
  • Exercise great caution so that you do not accidentally breach Wikipedia's content policies.

Please familiarize yourself with relevant content policies and guidelines, especially those pertaining to neutral point of view, verifiability of information, and autobiographies.

For information on how to contribute to Wikipedia when you have a conflict of interest, please see our frequently asked questions for organizations. Thank you. Drm310 (talk) 16:08, 8 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for your advice. I will check once more but as far as I can see, I haven't breached any rules or such like. I have tried to remain impartial throughout the article. Thanks again, and I'll review the content shortly. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 80.193.72.101 (talk) 08:25, 18 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]
