COi
Hello, I am editing the Grand Rounds Wikipedia page and do have COI. I work with the company, but understand all of the requirements for Wikipedia and will not edit with any marketing language. The updates I make to the pager are factual changes about the company.

Hello, Kaxelrod. 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 or competitors;
 * propose changes on the talk pages of affected articles (you can use the {{tl|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 WP: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.{{#ifexpr: ({{#time: U | now}} - 1617301926) < 13150000 | |  }}

Hello, I'm Deb. I wanted to let you know that one or more of your recent contributions have been undone because they appeared to be promotional. Advertising and using Wikipedia as a "soapbox" are against Wikipedia policy and not permitted; Wikipedia articles should be written objectively, using independent sources, and from a neutral perspective. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about Wikipedia. Thank you.Deb (talk) 09:38, 7 April 2021 (UTC)

Hi, Kelsie. Normally I don't reinstate pages that are promotional in tone. However, since you've admitted to your COI - and I have to say you would have known about this if you had read the guidelines on editing before you started - I am willing to do so, when you have placed the requisite message on your User page. It's always advisable for new users to get some practice by editing other articles on subjects that are not connected with them, and making small edits rather than trying to create a new article. I'd recommend you do this before trying to improve the article. Let me know when you've posted the COI notification. Deb (talk) 07:42, 8 April 2021 (UTC)


 * You still have access to your user page, so you shouldn't have any problem adding the COI template. Deb (talk) 17:18, 8 April 2021 (UTC)
