Managing a conflict of interest
Hello, Air Mauritius. We welcome your contributions to Wikipedia, but if you are affiliated with some of the people, places or things you have written about in the article Air Mauritius, you may have a conflict of interest.

All editors are required to comply with Wikipedia's neutral point of view content policy. People who are very close to a subject often have a distorted view of it, which may cause them to inadvertently edit in ways that make the article either too flattering or too disparaging. While people with a close connection to a subject are not expressly prohibited from editing about that subject, and are often the kind of enthusiastic writers Wikipedia very much needs and appreciates, they will need to be especially careful about ensuring that their edits are supported by reliable sources and writing with as little personal bias as possible. Statements added to an article under the premise, "I know this is true because I am an expert on the subject", are considered unsubstantiated unless accompanied by citations to such sources, and maybe flagged or removed by other editors if they are not.

If you are very close to a subject, here are some ways you can reduce the risk of potential problems:


 * Exercise great caution when editing or creating articles related to you, your organization, or its competitors, as well as projects and products with which they are involved.
 * Avoid linking from your organization's web site to the Wikipedia article or vice versa (see Spam).
 * Consider disclosing your relationship to the organization or product you are writing about. If you don't, you may be in breach of Wikipedia's Terms of Use (see these guidelines for more information about how and where to do this).
 * Become familiar with relevant content policies and guidelines, especially those pertaining to neutral point of view, verifiability of information, and autobiographies.

For information on how to contribute to Wikipedia when you have a conflict of interest, please see our frequently asked questions for organizations. Thank you. Jetstreamer $Talk$ 13:23, 23 March 2015 (UTC)

Hello, I'm Jetstreamer. I noticed that you made a change to an article, Air Mauritius, but you didn't provide a reliable source. It's been removed and archived in the page history for now, but if you'd like to include a citation and re-add it, please do so! If you need guidance on referencing, please see the referencing for beginners tutorial, or if you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you.

Account blocked because of promotional use
Your account has been blocked indefinitely from editing Wikipedia because it appears to be mainly intended for publicity and/or promotional purposes. If you intend to edit constructively in other topic areas, you may be granted the right to continue under a change of username. Please read the following carefully.

Your account's edits and/or username indicate that it is being used on behalf of a company, group, website or organization for purposes of promotion and/or publicity. The edits may have violated one or more of our rules on spamming, which include: adding inappropriate external links, posting advertisements and using Wikipedia for promotion. Wikipedia has many articles on companies, groups, and organizations, but such groups are generally discouraged from using Wikipedia to write about themselves. In addition, usernames like yours are disallowed under our username policy.
 * Why can't I edit Wikipedia?

Probably not, although if you can demonstrate a pattern of future editing in strict accordance with our neutral point of view policy, you may be granted this right. See Wikipedia's FAQ for Organizations for a helpful list of frequently asked questions by people in your position. Also, review the conflict of interest guidance to see the kinds of limitations you would have to obey if you did want to continue editing about your company, group, organization, or clients. If this does not fit in with your goals, then you will not be allowed to edit Wikipedia again.
 * Am I allowed to make these edits if I change my username?


 * What can I do now?

If you have no interest in writing about some other topic than your organization, group, company, or product, you may consider using one of the many websites that allow this instead. If you do intend to make useful contributions here about some other topic, you must convince a Wikipedia administrator that you mean it. To that end, please do the following:


 * Add the text on your user talk page.
 * Replace the text "Your proposed new username" with a new username you are willing to use. See Special:Listusers to search for available usernames. Your new username will need to meet our username policy.
 * Replace the text "Your reason here" with your reason to be unblocked. In this reason, you must:
 * Convince us that you understand the reason for your block and that you will not repeat the edits for which you were blocked.
 * Describe in general terms the contributions that you intend to make if you are unblocked.

If you believe this block was made in error, you may appeal this block by adding the text below, but you should read the guide to appealing blocks first. Gogo Dodo (talk) 06:08, 24 March 2015 (UTC)
