Managing a conflict of interest
Hello, ABBComms. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about on the page Pregnancy discrimination, you may have a conflict of interest (COI). Editors with a conflict of interest may be unduly influenced by their connection to the topic. See the conflict of interest guideline and FAQ for organizations for more information. We ask that you:


 * avoid editing or creating articles about yourself, your family, friends, colleagues, company, organization or competitors;
 * propose changes on the talk pages of affected articles (you can use the request edit template);
 * disclose your conflict of interest when discussing affected articles (see Conflict of interest);
 * avoid linking to your organization's website in other articles (see Spam);
 * 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 Paid-contribution disclosure.

Also, editing for the purpose of advertising, publicising, or promoting anyone or anything is not permitted. Thank you. MrOllie (talk) 22:52, 2 March 2022 (UTC)

To do this, first search Special:CentralAuth for available usernames that comply with the username policy. Once you have found an acceptable username, post the text  at the bottom of your talk page. Replace the text "Your proposed new username" with your new username and replace the text "Your reason here" with your reasons to be unblocked. In your reasons, you must: Appeals: If, after reviewing the guide to appealing blocks, you believe this block was made in error, you may appeal it by adding the text  at the bottom of your talk page.

 * Disclose any compensation you may receive for your contributions in accordance with the Paid-contribution disclosure requirement.
 * Convince us that you understand the reason for your block and that you will not repeat the kind of edits for which you were blocked.
 * Describe in general terms the contributions that you intend to make if you are unblocked.


 * I have reviewed both pages, and will be adding conflict of interest and paid contribution disclosure templates to my user page if unblocked, as well as indicating both of these in any ongoing edits. As a general contributor, I might make factual edits adding additional details to pages related to labor laws, as well as updates on the statuses of pieces of legislation as they move through Congress in order to keep those pages current and accurate.

To paraphrase, "I would like to use the resources and research created by A Better Balance to build up cited sources on relevant articles" reads like "You would like to find claims in the encyclopedia which are already sourced, and add links to your organisation's website." How would your proposed additions differ from WP:REFSPAM? Cabayi (talk) 10:26, 29 October 2022 (UTC)


 * These proposed edits would involve adding additional details and claims using primary sources located through an internal archive of .gov websites and bill texts (both state and federal level) to add current updates to the status of certain pieces of legislation and maintain lists of existing protections on legislation-specific pages regarding paid family and medical leave, paid sick time, and potential other policy topics. This would not involve any swapping of existing citations unless an entire claim was corrected or updated on my end in a way that would necessitate adding a new more current source to ensure the information is up-to-date and accurate.

 * To clarify: you are interested in adding links to .gov sites you are unaffiliated with? Or are you linking to a site that you are affiliated with? Your two replies here are a bit contradictory if you ask me. Vanished user 60279853583153 (talk) 23:59, 5 November 2022 (UTC)
