Please stop introducing false and unsourced information into articles as you have been doing since July. If you wish to discuss the basis for your claims, please do so in the article's Talk page, rather than engage in a futile edit war. Thank you. Owen&times; &#9742;  20:18, 15 October 2012 (UTC)

You assert that the information was false. For reference, here is the statement in question:

"Key spokesperson for the Consent Counts program is Leigha Fleming, nom de plume of Oklahoma native Rena Fleming (b. 1970)."

What was false, specifically?


 * I don't have patience for silly games. If you have a reliable source you can cite for this claim, go ahead and show it. Otherwise, kindly keep your fabrications out of this encyclopaedia. The onus of proof is on whoever makes the claim in the article. Owen&times; &#9742;  02:25, 16 October 2012 (UTC)

Managing a conflict of interest
Hello, CrescentNotes. We welcome your contributions to Wikipedia, but if you have an external relationship with some of the people, places or things you have written about on Wikipedia, 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.
 * 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. Note that Wikipedia's terms of use require disclosure of your employer, client, and affiliation with respect to any contribution for which you receive, or expect to receive, compensation.

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. The Dissident Aggressor 22:49, 26 August 2015 (UTC)
