Hello, Brandonbwhit. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about on the page Ziplocal, 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, clients, 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. signed, Willondon (talk) 21:15, 5 June 2023 (UTC)

As above, you need to declare a conflict of interest if you are going to continue editing the Ziplocal article. There are policies that need to be followed if you are going to edit an article in which you have an interest. Note: company or product articles are not "the company's web page on Wikipedia". They are articles in an encyclopedia that will be curated by a variety of editors according to the policies and guidelines built up over the years by the community.

Undisclosed paid advocacy is strictly prohibited. Using this site for advertising or promotion is contrary to the purpose of Wikipedia.
