 * Thanks,

 * Btw, what is logged is wrong. That’s why I am changing it. John The Poppies (talk) 15:02, 20 February 2024 (UTC)
 * Assuming you are 62.7.90.213 while not logged in, you also, apparently, have a conflict of interest. I hope your not paid for this, too, since that would be a violation of the Terms of Use. Kleuske (talk) 16:45, 20 February 2024 (UTC)
 * Paid for what? John The Poppies (talk) 16:55, 20 February 2024 (UTC)

Hello, John The Poppies. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about on the page Bournemouth F.C., you may have a conflict of interest (COI).

We ask that you:


 * avoid editing or creating articles about yourself, your family, friends, colleagues, company, organization, clients, or competitors;
 * propose changes on the talk pages of affected articles (you can use the edit COI template);
 * disclose your conflict of interest when discussing affected articles (see );
 * avoid linking to your organization's website in other articles (see );
 * 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.

 * Sorry but I am confused!
 * As Media Manager of the football club, Bournemouth FC, I am the specific person responsible for our media data.
 * All I am trying to do is correct the inaccurate info currently logged in wiki for our club.
 * There is no money involved and no conflict of interest - only a wish to correct wrong info. John The Poppies (talk) 16:59, 20 February 2024 (UTC)
 * And my role is voluntary. John The Poppies (talk) 17:00, 20 February 2024 (UTC)
