Managing a conflict of interest
Hello, Greatprizes. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about in the page World Bank, 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. MrOllie (talk) 22:31, 8 July 2019 (UTC)

I am trying to sort through the mistakes I made when I began to edit wikipedia. I most emphatically do not have a connection to the World Bank--nor am I promoting or being compensated for any edits I made. I am, however, a beginner. Since I may be blocked from even posting this comment, I am going to see what I have to do to consolidate the accounts I created and make an official declaration that I have no conflicts. I am open to any suggestions, although I understand that I am responsible for figuring out how to do this. Greatprizes (talk) 18:08, 4 October 2019 (UTC)

You have been blocked indefinitely from editing for abusing multiple accounts. Note that multiple accounts are allowed, but not for illegitimate reasons, and any contributions made while evading blocks or bans may be reverted or deleted. If you think there are good reasons for being unblocked, please read the guide to appealing blocks, then add the following text below the block notice on your talk page:.

would you be open to giving this editor another chance? Greatprizes is apparently on a static IP and doesn't seem to have created any new accounts since being blocked. NinjaRobotPirate (talk) 23:15, 16 January 2020 (UTC)
 * If unblocked, what are they going to do at Wikipedia?--Bbb23 (talk) 00:06, 17 January 2020 (UTC)
 * Probably edit the same topics? The editor was given a COI warning, but I can't tell what the COI is supposed to be.  It looks like Greatprizes wants to learn more about our policies and is open to taking advice.  That's more promising than some unblocked editors.  I don't know.  Greatprizes, what do you intend to do here? NinjaRobotPirate (talk) 00:45, 17 January 2020 (UTC)
 * The COI was about apparent WP:REFSPAMming of the works of Kathryn Lavelle. - MrOllie (talk) 00:49, 17 January 2020 (UTC)
