Declaration
The view has been expressed that my participation in a certain blog has possible WP:COI implications. (See my discussion page, linked above)

WP:COI defines conflict of interest thus..

"Where advancing outside interests is more important to an editor than advancing the aims of Wikipedia, that editor stands in a conflict of interest."

By this definition there is no conflict of interest on my part. No outside interest is more important to me than what I understand to be the aims of Wikipedia, with regard to verifiability, neutrality etc.

Some people may be confused by the title of the blog. I urge people to read it's content and find that it does not campaign for any particular outcome, rather it asks questions of certain people and submits their statements to skeptical enquiry, while inviting others to do the same. Evidence is offered in the case of any assertions it makes.

"Editors with COIs are strongly encouraged—but not actually required—to declare their interests, both on their user pages and on the talk page of the related article they are editing"

While denying that a conflict of interest exists, I take on board the above statement and make the following declarations for clarity...

I do have a mutual contact with Angelo Bertolotti.

I am not related to Mr Bertolotti by blood or marriage.

I am not a personal friend of Mr Bertolotti, nor any member of his family.

I have never been employed by Mr Bertolotti.

I have never had any contact with Mr Bertolotti, Sharon Murphy or Roger Neal other than email and Twitter correspondence in the case of the latter.

I have no grievance against Sharon Murphy or Roger Neal.
