Welcome to Wikipedia! If you're on this page it's likely because you understand that you have a financial COI and you are looking for help from a volunteer editor, but don't know quite where to begin.

First things first, you'll need to create a Wikipedia account if you don't already have one. Some things to keep in mind:


 * DO NOT simply give it the name of the company where you work, like ExampleCo. Wikipedia rules prohibit accounts with names that imply they are likely to be shared.
 * If you are comfortable using your real name, that is the most simple way to go about it.
 * If you are less comfortable using your full name, a first name or initials is good, too.
 * A common approach is a hybrid approach, such as Jane at ExampleCo.

Got that? Please create a Wikipedia account here and then come back.

Next you'll want to familiarize yourself with Wikipedia's basic processes. Two excellent tools for this include the Wikipedia Tutorial and The Wikipedia Adventure. Each takes some time to go through, so set aside some time for them.
