Managing a conflict of interest
Hello, Carrotsandsticks. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about on the page Law School Democrats of America, 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.

Hello, I'm I dream of horses. Wikipedia is written by people who have a wide diversity of opinions, but we try hard to make sure articles have a neutral point of view. Your recent edit to Law School Democrats of America seemed less than neutral to me, so I removed it for now. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. I dream of horses (Contribs) (Talk) 19:13, 4 June 2023 (UTC)


 * Thank you. I'm sorry for the delay in response. The page in the version you've returned it to reflects a defunct organization. The information is out of date so I was trying to provide users with the correct information. If my version doesn't work, could you please change the language to something you find appropriate instead of reverting to the out-of-date information? I'm also happy to submit another set of changes if that helps you. Here's the website for Law School Democrats of America: https://www.lawdems.org/. The organization you reverted the page to reflect is defunct (here's an article about it; it was founded in 2006 and went dark around 2011 https://hls.harvard.edu/today/hls-students-kick-off-national-organization-of-democratic-law-students/) as is the URL on the Wiki page. Please let me know how I can assist you in creating an accurate, timely, and helpful Wikipedia page for people looking to learn about the Law School Democrats of America.
