COI check for Mark Edmundson
Hello, Joshhall111. 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 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, clients, 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. Thank you. MrsSnoozyTurtle 07:00, 27 March 2023 (UTC)


 * Dear MrsSnoozyTurtle,
 * Thank you for your message--can you note specifically where/in what context there is a COI? I am looking at the COI check and cannot understand where the page does this.
 * Many thanks! Joshhall111 (talk) 14:29, 27 March 2023 (UTC)
 * Hello, you're most welcome. In its simplest form, the question is: do you have any connection to Mr Edmundson, the companies publishing his books or the University of Virginia? Regards, MrsSnoozyTurtle 21:21, 27 March 2023 (UTC)
 * Dear MrsSnoozyTurtle,
 * Thank you for the clarification: no, I do not have any connection to the University of Virginia or the companies that publish Mr. Edmundson's books. I am a scholar and have been researching Edmundson's works since the early 2000s. Edmundson is an important figure in literary and cultural analysis. He writes a book per year and is widely cited as a major intellectual figure.
 * Best,
 * Joshhall111 Joshhall111 (talk) 14:39, 28 March 2023 (UTC)
