User talk:Koinaki

February 2020
Hello, I'm Qzd. I noticed that in this edit to Ngāti Pāoa, you removed content without adequately explaining why. In the future, it would be helpful to others if you described your changes to Wikipedia with an edit summary. If this was a mistake, don't worry, the removed content has been restored. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. Qzd (talk) 07:01, 14 February 2020 (UTC)

Please do not assume ownership of articles as you did at Ngāti Pāoa. If you aren't willing to allow your contributions to be edited extensively or be redistributed by others, please do not submit them. Thank you. Mr. Vernon (talk) 07:27, 14 February 2020 (UTC)

Managing a conflict of interest
Hello, Koinaki. 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 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.

"All content must be cited from reliable sources that are unconnected with the subject and have a reputation for fact checking." Thank you. --  Deep fried  okra    07:37, 14 February 2020 (UTC)

Phew, that's a lot of words
Hi there,

While everything above is accurate, it's all quite lengthy and dense. Just letting you know if you want an explanation or clarification of anything there, feel free to ask me by posting below. Or, if I'm not responding quickly enough (work, or sleep etc), then the best place to ask would be the Teahouse that is designed to help newer editors.

Let's discuss it
Hi, Koinaki,

It seems you have objections to some of the content at Ngāti Pāoa. I invite you to please come to that article's discussion page and explain the what you'd like changed so that we can understand.

For help with how to edit or managing COI declarations, see Nosebagbear's invitation above.
