Advertorial like and editor account name is similar to a staff at browhaus. Justanothersgwikieditor (talk) 08:18, 21 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
I do not work for Browhaus. Multiple edits have been due to editorial errors. GrantHarrison (talk) 05:55, 21 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
@GrantHarrison:, hi, erroneous edits are fine as we learn to navigate the Wikipedia system. If you are working at a related Browhaus company, like the group operating the Browhaus brand, you will still be considered having a COI. Thanks --Justanothersgwikieditor (talk) 01:24, 22 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
@Justanothersgwikieditor:, Thank you for the advice on this matter. Yes I am still learning the wiki short codes and will read the information you have provided on this COI matter when time permits. Please assist if you feel additional edits are required to subject matter. Many thanks.--GrantHarrison (talk) 03:01, 23 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
GrantHarrison, Hi, can you confirm whether are you working in a Browhaus-related company, especially their parent group? Thanks! Justanothersgwikieditor (talk) 03:05, 23 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
@Justanothersgwikieditor: I can confirm that my current employment has business links to Browhaus but I am not paid to produce or edit content for Browhaus and any edits to this page were made by myself to correct outdated information. Please feel free to edit if you feel the content appears advertorial in nature as this was not my intention. Thank you. --GrantHarrison (talk) 03:24, 23 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
GrantHarrison, Firstly, content wise it is okay. Nothing to worry on that. Secondly, your current employment having business links to Browhaus might put you in a position of COI. For examples, 1) if your company has a long term business relationship with Browhaus, you might have a marginal COI; 2)If Browhaus is a brand under your company's portfolio, it is an indirect COI even though you are not directly involved with Browhaus. Even though you are not paid to produce or edit content for Browhaus, as long you are an employee of Browhaus (which you declared you are not) or indirectly via a company which owns Browhaus, you will be considered a paid editor per Wikipedia's policy. -- Justanothersgwikieditor (talk) 03:42, 23 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
@Justanothersgwikieditor: Thank you for the additional explanation on COI. I do appreciate the assistance and I will spend more time doing due diligence to Wikipedia policy and practices before embarking further on my Wikipedia journey. --GrantHarrison (talk) 03:24, 23 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
