Since it sounds like you work for Dick's Sporting Goods, you may want to see the conflict of interest guideline and FAQ for organizations for more information on managing a conflict of interest. We ask that you:

disclose your conflict of interest when discussing affected articles (see Wikipedia:Conflict of interest#How to disclose a COI);
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.

Happy editing! 𝗙𝗼𝗿𝗺𝗮𝗹𝗗𝘂𝗱𝗲𝘁𝗮𝗹𝗸 07:59, 5 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Edit requests[edit]

Just so you know, editors are permitted to make edits to pages they have a conflict of interest with, if they receive prior approval from a non-COI editor. Meaning (once you are autoconfirmed) you will be able to implement your own edit requests once they're reviewed by another Wikipedian. It looks like you only need three more edits to become autoconfirmed; I would just edit your userpage a couple times if you want to get there. A reply to this comment will count as an edit too. ––𝗙𝗼𝗿𝗺𝗮𝗹𝗗𝘂𝗱𝗲 talk 22:03, 20 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

If you want to continue making edit requests thought that is obviously more than okay, and probably preferred by most Wikipedians. ––𝗙𝗼𝗿𝗺𝗮𝗹𝗗𝘂𝗱𝗲 talk 15:41, 23 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@FormalDude: Thanks for the info! For now, I will stick with making edit requests. It seems best to take an extra careful approach to COI edits. In case you missed it, I responded to your questions on the DSG Talk page. Again, I can't thank you enough for all your help. Cheers, Eddie from DSG (talk) 13:29, 10 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
