Conflict of Interest clarification
This is related to clarification on a "Conflict of Interest" situation on an article titled "Nilakantha Das" on Wikipedia, that I had recently updated. The original article was classified as 'stubbed' and was created more than ten years ago using a standard boiler-plate format, with minimal information. Nilakantha Das, who had died 54 years ago, has a Memorial Trust, called Nilakantha Smruti Samiti. Based upon the Trust's request and the materials supplied by them in hard-copy book or hyperlink form to me, I updated the page, which was almost a rewrite. The facts in the updated page are supported by the information in the references/materials provided by the Trust, and are included in the updated article.

I want to mention here that I am a grand-daughter of Nilakantha Das, who lives in the United states for more than 54 years. From Wikipedia guidelines, I don't think I directly come under COI category. I have no monetary or other interest in making these updates, other than disseminating important information related to the Indian state of Odisha and its famous people. Still, I would like to request one of the experienced editors at Wikipedia to kindly review the article and let me know if they perceive any problem.
