Managing a conflict of interest
Hello, LondonerM&#38;S. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about on the page Marks & Spencer, 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 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. Edwardx (talk) 10:55, 16 March 2022 (UTC)


 * Dear Edwardx - to confirm I have no connections to Marks and Spencers nor Mr Machin, therefore these additions are not a violation. LondonerM&#38;S (talk) 14:09, 16 March 2022 (UTC)
 * Thank you for your response, LondonerM&S. I was wondering if you might have some connection to User:48LKEH, who made a similar reversion to the Stuart Machin article? Edwardx (talk) 14:26, 16 March 2022 (UTC)
 * Dear Edwardx - No, not me LondonerM&#38;S (talk) 18:39, 16 March 2022 (UTC)
