Managing a conflict of interest
Hello, LakeCountyHistoricalSociety. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about on the page Edna G, 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 article subjects 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 edit COI template)—don't forget to give details of reliable sources supporting your suggestions;
 * disclose your conflict of interest when discussing affected articles (see );
 * avoid linking to your organization's website in other articles (see );
 * 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. Lynch44 (talk) 21:05, 4 June 2024 (UTC)

Welcome to Wikipedia. Your account has been blocked from editing because your username gives the impression that the account represents a group, club, organization, company, or website. '''Your username is the principal reason for the block. You are welcome to continue editing after you have chosen a new username that complies with Wikipedia's username policy.'''

You should also read our conflict of interest guideline and be aware that promotional editing is not acceptable, regardless of the username that you choose. Additionally, if your contributions to Wikipedia form all or part of work for which you are, or expect to be, paid or compensated in any way, you must disclose who is paying you to edit here. You may also read our FAQ for article subjects. Please take a moment to either create a new account, or request a username change. The new username that you choose must represent you as an individual person, and it must comply with Wikipedia's username policy.
 * To create a new account with a different username, simply log out of this account and then click here to make a new one.
 * If you prefer to change the username for this account instead, you may do so by adding the following text to the bottom of your talk page (which is this page):.

Please note that the new username you choose cannot already be in use by another account. You can use this page to search the list of registered accounts and see if the username you'd like to choose is available. If your search returns that "there is no global account for [your search term]", that means it is available.

Please also note that you are permitted to use a username that contains the name of a company or organization if it also identifies you individually, such as "Sara Smith at XYZ Company", "Mark at WidgetsUSA", or "FoobarFan87", but not "SEO Manager at XYZ Company".

Appeals: If your username does not represent a group, organization, website, or other entity described above, and if you believe that this block was incorrect or made in error, you may appeal this block by adding the following text to the bottom of your talk page (which is this page):.

 * Per a global rename request, this username has been changed from "LakeCountyHistoricalSociety" to "Brandonlchs". If the username was the only concern, the account can now be unblocked as the new username meets the username requirements. ··· 日本穣 ·  投稿  · Talk to Nihonjoe ·  Join WP Japan ! 19:02, 10 June 2024 (UTC)
 * Thank you, I hope there are no further issues and I can update the Historic Site information. Brandonlchs (talk) 19:39, 10 June 2024 (UTC)


 * Hi, I will be removing the block after I write this. As you seem to represent the Historical Society, please make a conflict of interest disclosure on your user page.  If you are employed by the Society, the Terms of Use require a paid editing disclosure. 331dot (talk) 19:07, 10 June 2024 (UTC)
