User talk:Dberkus

Welcome!
Hello, Dberkus, and welcome to Wikipedia!&#32;Thank you for your contributions.

I noticed that one of the first articles you edited was Dave Berkus, which appears to be dealing with a topic with which you may have a conflict of interest. In other words, you may find it difficult to write about that topic in a neutral and objective way, because you are, work for, or represent, the subject of that article.&#32;Your recent contributions may have already been undone for this very reason.

To reduce the chances of your contributions being undone, you might like to draft your revised article before submission, and then ask me or another editor to proofread it. See our help page on userspace drafts for more details. If the page you created has already been deleted from Wikipedia, but you want to save the content from it to use for that draft, don't hesitate to ask anyone from this list and they will copy it to your user page.

One rule we do have in connection with conflicts of interest is that accounts used by more than one person will unfortunately be blocked from editing. Wikipedia generally does not allow editors to have usernames which imply that the account belongs to a company or corporation. If you have a username like this, you should request a change of username or create a new account. (A name that identifies the user as an individual within a given organization may be OK.)

In addition, if you receive, or expect to receive, compensation for any contribution you make, you must disclose your employer, client, and affiliation to comply with our terms of use and our policy on paid editing.

Here are some pages that you might find helpful:
 * Best practices for editors with close associations
 * Plain and simple conflict of interest guide
 * The five pillars of Wikipedia
 * Contributing to Wikipedia
 * Tutorial
 * How to edit a page and How to develop articles
 * How to create your first article (using the Article Wizard if you wish)
 * Simplified Manual of Style

I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Please sign your messages on talk pages using four tildes ( ~ ); this will automatically insert your username and the date. If you need help, check out Questions, ask me on my talk page, or ask your question on this page and then place  before the question. Again, welcome! BusterD (talk) 00:52, 30 November 2021 (UTC)

Explanation of changes by subject November 2021
1. Page had been "attacked" by unknown Wikipedia editor adding racially inappropriate photo and racially inappropriate description as well as sexually inappropriate label for Nate Berkus. 2. DBerkus removed both of these (twice attacked and removed) and in the process edited certain facts updating factual quantity of investments data from 2018 to 2021 and updated "Boards of Directors" section to remove obsolete information. 3. DBerkus added reference information to source of "FOSSE" sentence in first section. 4. DBerkus neither added nor changed any autobiographical information from original third party page posting other than these updates.

I believe the page conforms to the rules required for such pages and that the template should be removed.
