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


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

In addition, you are required by the Wikimedia Foundation's terms of use to 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 Paid-contribution disclosure.

Also, editing for the purpose of advertising, publicising, or promoting anyone or anything is not permitted.  Your edit summaries describing communicating with the band members and their "approval" indicates a misunderstanding about how Wikipedia articles should be sourced.  — jmcgnh (talk) (contribs) 05:56, 30 April 2022 (UTC)


 * I only made those comments because I saw a volatile history with the article. I don't know anyone involved before my contributions.
 * I did source things correctly; I did my research independently I only confirmed with the band members to make sure it's true  Should have left those comments out. I am not editing for advertising purposes, I was just unhappy with the previous state of the article. Please do not accuse me of being paid or working for them. I did this altruistically, by my own provocation.
 * I understand your concern with my editing comments. But nevertheless, I have no connection to the artist themselves. I felt the previous article was all over the place and only wanted to clean it up. I basically asked the band members if the information I wanted to add is accurate, based on the sources I used, and they confirmed it is all good. If that's not allowed, I won't do it in the future. Thank you for telling me. Eyesofagony (talk) 06:13, 30 April 2022 (UTC)
 * The warning templates are perhaps somewhat overbroad in that they need to cover everything from serious paid editing problems all the way down to cases where the conflict of interest is, as in this case, pretty minimal or nonexistent. Now that you've made your situation clear, we can put this particular issue aside.  — jmcgnh (talk) (contribs) 06:41, 30 April 2022 (UTC)
 * Thank you. Regarding the picture that was removed, I was given full access by the copyright owner of the image to use on the Wikipedia page, which is acceptable by Wikipedia copyright standards, if I understand correctly.
 * What's the process for having this uploaded? I was told I had seven days to prove my eligibility to use it, but it was just removed now. Noa seems to have stopped replying to my emails, so I don't think i'll be about to get her to email an address given her for authenticity. Would a screenshot or a forward of the email suffice?
 * Alternatively, there is a picture on the Hebrew page that is significantly better than the present one, but it does not seem to be in the commons Is there a way to access this for the english page? Not that the lineup in this photo is outdated, which is why I liked the one I used. Eyesofagony (talk) 06:50, 30 April 2022 (UTC)
 * Hmmmm. I have to note that I had this reaction to your request. Good luck. -Roxy the grumpy dog . wooF 15:58, 30 April 2022 (UTC)

 * What's rude? Eyesofagony (talk) 13:15, 2 May 2022 (UTC)
 * It appears that I answered your question, by adding to my post above, just before you asked it. -Roxy the grumpy dog . wooF 13:22, 2 May 2022 (UTC)
