Conflict of interest and paid editing in Wikipedia
Hi ColinHallmark. You disclose here that you "Represents clients in these sectors as a communications consultant."

This is the beginning of the required disclosure per the WP:PAID policy, but it is not complete.

For each set of edits you make on a specific job, you need to disclose the article you are working, your employer, the client, and any other affiliation. It is kind of complicated to use the templates and all - you can just start simply by providing the complete disclosure in a list on your user page, in simple prose.

Like - I worked on Oxygen firebreak for pay. My employer was X, the client was Y, and Z. (for Z any relevant affiliation - generally freelancers use that to say "And I was hired through Upwork) or the like.  Employer and client are often the same for freelancers.  If you work for a digital marketing or PR or communications agency, that of course is your employer and whoever the client is, is the client.

Would you please post that information to your userpage? Once that is done we can talk about the rest of the COI management process, but disclosure is first. Thanks. Jytdog (talk) 22:51, 2 February 2018 (UTC)


 * Thanks Jytdog. I'll add that information to my user page now and review the COI management process ColinHallmark (talk) 09:37, 5 February 2018 (UTC)ColinHallmark
 * Thanks for adding to the disclosure in this diff. It is not clear who your employer is. Are you freelancing or do you work for an agency of some kind? If you work for some sort of agency you need to name it; if you are a freelancer you should state that, and also state how you connected with your clients (e.g. freelancer, upwork, etc).  You should also be aware of the recent RfC on meta (especially since you made your disclosure on meta), which says that you should disclose links to any off-WP accounts you are using to obtain business.  Would you please take care of that stuff?  Once the disclosure is done we can move on to the rest. Thanks. Jytdog (talk) 23:12, 5 February 2018 (UTC)

Happy to oblige Jytdog. ColinHallmark (talk) 09:04, 6 February 2018 (UTC)ColinHallmark
