Please do not add inappropriate external links to Wikipedia, as you did to Caroline Sunshine. Wikipedia is not a collection of links, nor should it be used for advertising or promotion. Inappropriate links include (but are not limited to) links to personal web sites, links to web sites with which you are affiliated, and links that attract visitors to a web site or promote a product. See the external links guideline and spam guideline for further explanations. Because Wikipedia uses the nofollow attribute value, its external links are disregarded by most search engines. If you feel the link should be added to the page, please discuss it on the associated talk page rather than re-adding it. Thank you. ''Your user name looks similar to the company that runs the website you added to the article. Too many posers to trust a self-declared "official" site assertion. Would need to see a reliable source support that site as being hers. A verified twitter link to the site would also do.'' Geraldo Perez (talk) 19:54, 29 November 2012 (UTC)

R. Brandon Johnson
Hello, Amanda. I see from your question on the Help Desk that Johnson is your client and you are wanting to work on the article R. Brandon Johnson for him. I see you have not so far made any edits to it; but before you do so, please make sure that you are familiar with Wikipedia's guidance on editors with a conflict of interest. --ColinFine (talk) 08:53, 23 July 2014 (UTC)

Hello, LOLAmanda. We welcome your contributions to Wikipedia, but if you are affiliated with some of the people, places or things you have written about in the article R. Brandon Johnson, you may have a conflict of interest.

All editors are required to comply with Wikipedia's neutral point of view content policy. People who are very close to a subject often have a distorted view of it, which may cause them to inadvertently edit in ways that make the article either too flattering or too disparaging. People with a close connection to a subject are not absolutely prohibited from editing about that subject, but they need to be especially careful about ensuring their edits are verified by reliable sources and writing with as little bias as possible.

If you are very close to a subject, here are some ways you can reduce the risk of problems:


 * Avoid or exercise great caution when editing or creating articles related to you, your organization, or its competitors, as well as projects and products they are involved with.
 * Avoid linking to the Wikipedia article or website of your organization in other articles (see Spam).
 * Exercise great caution so that you do not accidentally breach Wikipedia's content policies.

Please familiarize yourself with relevant content policies and guidelines, especially those pertaining to neutral point of view, verifiability of information, and autobiographies.

For information on how to contribute to Wikipedia when you have a conflict of interest, please see our frequently asked questions for organizations. Thank you. -- Orange Mike &#124;  Talk  12:29, 23 July 2014 (UTC)
