User talk:Alf2376

Welcome!
Hello, SEWisdom, and welcome to Wikipedia!&#32;Thank you for your contributions.

I noticed that one of the first articles you edited appears to be dealing with a topic with which you may have a conflict of interest. In other words, you may find it difficult to write about that topic in a neutral and objective way, because you are, work for, or represent, the subject of that article.&#32;Your recent contributions may have already been undone for this very reason.

To reduce the chances of your contributions being undone, you might like to draft your revised article before submission, and then ask me or another editor to proofread it. See our help page on userspace drafts for more details. If the page you created has already been deleted from Wikipedia, but you want to save the content from it to use for that draft, don't hesitate to ask anyone from this list and they will copy it to your user page.

One rule we do have in connection with conflicts of interest is that accounts used by more than one person will unfortunately be blocked from editing. Wikipedia generally does not allow editors to have usernames which imply that the account belongs to a company or corporation. If you have a username like this, you should request a change of username or create a new account. (A name that identifies the user as an individual within a given organization may be OK.)

In addition, you must disclose your employer, client, and affiliation with respect to any contribution for which you receive, or expect to receive, compensation (see WP:PAID).

Here are some pages that you might find helpful:

 * Tutorial
 * How to edit a page and How to develop articles
 * How to create your first article (using the Article Wizard if you wish)
 * Simplified Manual of Style

I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Please sign your messages on talk pages using four tildes ( ~ ); this will automatically insert your username and the date. If you need help, check out Questions, ask me on my talk page, or ask your question on this page and then place  before the question. Again, welcome! Alexbrn (talk) 17:59, 30 October 2017 (UTC)

Thanks for this. I am new to editing on Wikipedia and the logistics of making article changes is quite complex! I changed my username per the recommendation. What would you recommend about editing - should I draft changes and submit them to the editors before posting - will that negate any issues with my affiliation if the changes have been reviewed first? Where do I disclose my affiliation and is it necessary to do so every time I submit a change? I don't specifically receive compensation for doing this but have been asked to look into adding content and resources. Is it better for us to just put a call our to our community to contribute? The individuals that would be doing so have taken the training and are actively using the principles and skills in their private practices. This technically means they have an affiliation as a customer (student). Affiliation aside, were there issues with the changes I had posted? Is there a way to resubmit them for approval? Sorry for so many questions, your help is appreciated! SomaticPsych210 (talk) 20:41, 30 October 2017 (UTC)

 * The best place to start is WP:5P - things in the realm of healthcare require really strong sourcing and the topic of somatic experiencing is subject to WP:FRINGE which means care should be exercised not to give undue weight to questionable notions. Alexbrn (talk) 22:08, 30 October 2017 (UTC)
