Managing a conflict of interest
Hello, Annie.galizio. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with some of the people, places or things you have written about on Wikipedia, you may have a conflict of interest. People with a conflict of interest may be unduly influenced by their connection to the topic. For information on how to contribute to Wikipedia when you have a conflict of interest, see the conflict of interest guideline and frequently asked questions for organizations. In particular, please:


 * avoid editing or creating articles related to you, your organization, its competitors, or projects and products you or they are involved with;
 * instead, propose changes on the talk pages of affected articles (see the template);
 * avoid linking to the Wikipedia article or website of your organization in other articles (see WP:SPAM);
 * exercise great caution so that you do not violate Wikipedia's content policies.

In addition, the Wikimedia Foundation's terms of use require disclosure of your employer, client, and affiliation with respect to any contribution for which you receive, or expect to receive, compensation.

Please familiarize yourself with relevant policies and guidelines, especially those pertaining to neutral point of view, sourcing, and autobiographies. Thank you. Randykitty (talk) 07:08, 9 November 2015 (UTC)

Hello Randykitty,

I am pretty new to Wikipedia so I apologize if I edited this page incorrectly. While I do work for the journal, I am not paid to edit the Wikipedia page. I did disclose that I work for the journal in my edit summary; however, as mentioned above, editing Wikipedia is not part of my job and I will not be paid for it. I just noticed it was out of date and wanted to make sure all the information was up to date and the links were working. I used references for everything I changed (though I do appreciate you cleaning that up some - as I said, I am a bit new to this!). Almost everything you deleted was information I didn't actually add, but that was there before I started editing. Nothing on the page was promotional in any way, but was simply providing information (I don't think it was in violation of the neutral point of view, so if you could point out what you think was, that'd be great). Please let me know how I can go about making sure the page is more complete like it was before. Thanks, Annie.galizio (talk) 23:17, 9 November 2015 (UTC)
 * You don't think that a claim that the journal has published several "seminal papers" is promotional? Don't worry, I did see that all the promotional stuff was already there before you edited, I didn't accuse you of making promotional edits. I have responded in more detail on the talk page of the journal article. BTW, (obviously) a COI is not dependent on whether or not someone is being remunerated or not. Please take a moment to read the links that I have provided, that will help you navigate WP. Hope this helps. --Randykitty (talk) 11:53, 10 November 2015 (UTC)
