Hello, Gvenzl. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about in the page Oracle, 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, company, organization or competitors;
 * propose changes on the talk pages of affected articles (see the request edit template);
 * disclose your conflict of interest 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 please note that editing for the purpose of advertising, publicising, or promoting anyone or anything is not permitted. As you appear to be only editting Oracle related articles it appears prudent to check you do not have a COI. Thankyou. Djm-leighpark (talk) 19:37, 13 February 2019 (UTC)


 * Thanks for pointing that out to me. I'm indeed an employee of Oracle Corporation and just updated the wiki page about Oracle Database with the latest information about the release that happened today . I didn't know that this was such a big issue. What's the best way to update the page then, given that my edit has been undone?
 * I'm still very new to Wikipedia and more than happy to learn Gvenzl (talk) 23:21, 13 February 2019 (UTC)


 * Thankyou for being open about this. The first and most important thing to do is to declare the Conflict of Interest ... see above.  Understand the Template:Request edit system.  In general updating version numbers is okay especially if there is a reference source that can be cross checked; but new features may need reliable sources.   Beyond this check at the Teahouse.

 * I'd comment the your reference nnouncement only mentions 19.2.0 .... your update seemed to imnply exadata only ... and ideally I'd like to see a reference that is on a the wayback archive rather than something that is subject to WP:LINKROT. Best to ask at the WP:Teahouse currently.


 * Of course, and thank you for taking the time to explain this to me. I want to do the right thing here and, of course, learn how to do the right thing. I will have a look as the templates and resources you have provided, thank you very much! Gvenzl (talk) 00:06, 22 February 2019 (UTC)
