Question re:COI
Are you perchance the author of The Intention Economy? I note that you have made a couple of edits to that article. If you are the author then you have a conflict of interest and under Wikipedia's terms and conditions are not permitted to directly edit the article (though you may propose changes on the talk page with appropriate references). Further under those term and conditions: you are required to declare your conflict of interest on your user page. See WP:COI for more.

If you are not the author, then your username may be problem as it appears to represent a notable person. 81.154.179.214 (talk) 15:42, 4 February 2022 (UTC)


 *  According to the history of this page, the original author is Mary Hodder. But I am listed as the author of this page: something I did not know until I received a note from 81.154.179.214, instructing me to declare a conflict of interest, since I made some small edits here.


 * I only made those because I was not the original author and felt okay correcting links that went to porn sites. Since I am now listed as the author of the page, I apologize for making those edits and will make no more edits to the page. If somebody else wants to make corrections, or return my edits to their prior state, please feel free. Meanwhile, apologies. 


 * You are not listed as the author of the page but as the author of the book. There is no need to undo your edits because they are uncontroversial (and anyone else spotting where the URL led would have done the same thing). However as the author of the book you do have a conflict of interest in the article but as you state that you will make no more edits, that settles that.


 * Per the requirements at WP:COI you should declare your interest on your user page, and as long as you do not edit anything with which you are connected, that should be all you need do.


 * And finally a somewhat belated:
