Managing a conflict of interest
Hello, Catharineclark. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about on Wikipedia, 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 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 WP: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. McMatter (talk)/(contrib) 23:35, 17 April 2021 (UTC)

Are you Catharine Clark? If not, you will need to propose a new username that we can rename this account to. If you are a unpaid volunteer, okay, but you still have a conflict of interest. Please review that policy and explain how your future edits will be consistent with that policy. Note that a Wikipedia article should summarize what independent reliable sources say about the gallery, not what it wants to say about itself; it is free to speak about itself on its own website. If there is incorrect information, we want to know what it is, but it must be done in the proper manner. 331dot (talk) 19:53, 21 April 2021 (UTC)
