Managing a conflict of interest
Hello, Eames.furniture. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about on Wikipedia, you may have a conflict of interest (COI). Editors with a COI may be unduly influenced by their connection to the topic. See the COI guideline and FAQ for organizations for more information. We ask that you:


 * avoid editing or creating articles about yourself, your family, friends, company, organization or competitors;
 * propose changes on the talk pages of affected articles (you can use the request edit template);
 * disclose your COI when discussing affected articles (see WP:DISCLOSE);
 * avoid linking to your organization's website in other articles (see WP:Spam);
 * do your best to comply with Wikipedia's content policies.

In addition, you must disclose your employer, client, and affiliation with respect to any contribution which forms all or part of work for which you receive, or expect to receive, compensation (see WP:PAID).

Also, editing for the purpose of advertising, publicising, or promoting anyone or anything is not permitted. Thank you. Shellwood (talk) 23:17, 4 August 2019 (UTC)


 * Hello, Shellwood
 * thank you for your message. eames.com/en/wiki is a non-profit organisation and is a huge independently owned reference library for all eames designs. There isn't a conflict of interest as we do not seek to gain, only share the incredible amount of information it contains. I made the edits to correct entirely wrong information and improve it, as well as add necessary citation. Indeed the pages on Wikipedia surrounding this entire subject is sadly quite poor, factually incorrect and really ought to be updated. I understand your concern on the matter, however sadly you have now reverted the page to display factually incorrect information. We would be quite happy to improve the quality of the pages as well as add numerous others on the subject, if it was wanted of course. Eames.furniture (talk) 09:14, 5 August 2019 (UTC)

August 2019
There have been two problems with this account: the account has been used for advertising or promotion, which is contrary to the purpose of Wikipedia, and your username indicates that the account represents a business or other organisation or group or a web site, which is also against policy, as an account must be for just one person. Because of those problems, the account has been blocked indefinitely from editing. Additionally, if you receive, or expect to receive, compensation for your contributions to Wikipedia, you must disclose who is paying you to edit.

If you intend to make useful contributions about some topic other than your business or organisation, you may request an unblock. To do so, post the text at the bottom of your talk page. Replace the text "Your proposed new username" with a new username you are willing to use. See Special:CentralAuth to search for available usernames. Your new username will need to meet our username policy. Replace the text "Your reason here" with your reason to be unblocked. In that reason, you must:
 * Convince us that you understand the reason for your block and that you will not repeat the kind of edits for which you were blocked.
 * Describe in general terms the contributions that you intend to make if you are unblocked.

If you believe this block was made in error, you may appeal this block. To do so, please read the guide to appealing blocks, then add the text at the bottom of your talk page, replace the text "Your reason here" with your reason for thinking that the block was an error, and publish the page. -- Dloh cier ekim  (talk) 09:32, 5 August 2019 (UTC)


 * Blocked? for goodness sake all I wanted to do was update factually incorrect information. There is a huge lump of false facts in this page, we are non-profit, we don't have anything to advertise, and it was me that wrote it, not the organisation. Rules are rules, you can continue to publish false and misleading information. It does worry me greatly that if this one small snippet of subject is riddled with fake facts, what is the rest of Wikipedia like? We want people to know all about the legacy of the work of Charles and Ray Eames, but it appears they won't learn it correctly through this channel Eames.furniture (talk) 11:28, 5 August 2019 (UTC)


 * Sorry, but you will need a not WP:PROMONAME and to make a WP:COI/WP:PAID statement and to only suggest edits about your company. If you mean by "factually correct information" that which is sourced to your company, you need to remember that "all content must be cited from reliable sources that are unconnected with the subject and have a reputation for fact checking. A company's website would not meet that requirement. Wikipedia is an encyclopedia, and not a venue for subjects to place information about themselves.-- Dloh cier ekim   (talk) 18:17, 5 August 2019 (UTC)
