Managing a conflict of interest
Hello, Lucytileyard. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about on the page Martyn Ware, 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. ''You've previously been warned about this. Changing accounts will not disguise your edits.'' MarcGarver (talk) 12:52, 10 January 2023 (UTC)


 * Hello Marc,
 * I have 2 accounts, based on my previous workplace and new, that was indeed an error. The image that was previously on the site has been requested to be taken down my Martyn Ware himself as he does not approve the use of the prior image. I do not see the issue if we own the copyright, and the photographer has encouraged the image upload.
 * I am not promoting, I am just updating a more recent portrait, that is reflective of Martyn in current day. I will not make anymore amends to this page, but request the updated image remains.
 * Thankyou. Lucytileyard (talk) 13:57, 10 January 2023 (UTC)
 * Firstly, when you uploaded the new image you licensed it under a copyleft license permitting its use, editing, etc., by anyone for pretty much any purpose. While you still own the copyright (although you need to send permission proving you own it) you no longer control the use of the image. If you did not intend to give away the picture this way, then you have a problem. Secondly, Martyn does not need to "approve" the use of the prior image. You, and he, do not control the content here and any available image can be used based on the judgement of the editors. His request to change the image is therefore not really relevant.

 * Dear Marc,
 * I will retrieve proof of copyright ownership of image. Until then can we please avoid changing the image back to previous one. If the use of the previous image is not approved by the figure/artist I think it is only respectful to have it removed, though I understand your previous point, there are personal reasons this image has been requested to be removed.
 * Thanks,
 * Lucy Lucytileyard (talk) 08:15, 11 January 2023 (UTC)
