Orphaned non-free media (File:Laureate International Universities Logo.png)
Thanks for uploading File:Laureate International Universities Logo.png. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, it is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the media was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that media for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'file' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "File" from the dropdown box. Note that all non-free media not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Hazard-Bot (talk) 04:16, 3 August 2012 (UTC)

Managing a conflict of interest
Hello, Craig.Lundsten. We welcome your contributions to Wikipedia, but if you are affiliated with some of the people, places or things you have written about in the article Laureate International Universities, you may have a conflict of interest or close connection to the subject.

All editors are required to comply with Wikipedia's neutral point of view content policy. People who are very close to a subject often have a distorted view of it, which may cause them to inadvertently edit in ways that make the article either too flattering or too disparaging. People with a close connection to a subject are not absolutely prohibited from editing about that subject, but they need to be especially careful about ensuring their edits are verified by reliable sources and writing with as little bias as possible.

If you are very close to a subject, here are some ways you can reduce the risk of problems:


 * Avoid or exercise great caution when editing or creating articles related to you, your organization, or its competitors, as well as projects and products they are involved with.
 * Be cautious about deletion discussions. Everyone is welcome to provide information about independent sources in deletion discussions, but avoid advocating for deletion of articles about your competitors.
 * Avoid linking to the Wikipedia article or website of your organization in other articles (see Spam).
 * Exercise great caution so that you do not accidentally breach Wikipedia's content policies.

Please familiarize yourself with relevant content policies and guidelines, especially those pertaining to neutral point of view, verifiability of information, and autobiographies.

For information on how to contribute to Wikipedia when you have a conflict of interest, please see our frequently asked questions for organizations. Thank you. Justlettersandnumbers (talk) 10:11, 9 October 2014 (UTC)
 * Hi! You have very properly declared your conflict of interest with your first edit both at Laureate Education and at Laureate International Universities. Thank you for that. It doesn't look to me as if anyone has taken the trouble to advise you how to manage that conflict of interest. I hope that the suggestions and links above will help to remedy that. In particular, may I ask you to note that conflict-of-interest editors are strongly advised not to edit the article directly, but instead to propose suggested changes on the talk page. Thank for your understanding, Justlettersandnumbers (talk) 14:15, 9 October 2014 (UTC)
 * Hi there! Thanks very much for the welcome information and the cookies. I've tried to familiarize myself with the Wikipedia NPOV and conflict of interest policies and exercise caution on these pages and citing sources as you advise. My concern (I hope understandably) is that our pages seem to be updated rarely by the community, but are one of (if not the) top result when searching for information about the organization. I will comment on the Talk page regarding the most recent edits, hopefully you can help me update some of the information there in a manner that respects Wikipedia's policies!
