Managing a conflict of interest
Hello, MSUCAT. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about on the page Ty Okada, 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. Thank you. Liliana UwU (talk / contributions) 20:40, 2 May 2023 (UTC)


 * Hello, this article is incorrect as Ty’s true name is “Tyler” let’s please make this fix before we have misleading information as to what his name is. MSUCAT (talk) 20:43, 2 May 2023 (UTC)
 * Do you have a reliable source concerning that name? Liliana UwU  (talk / contributions) 20:44, 2 May 2023 (UTC)
 * You’re kidding right? You want a birth certificate? MSUCAT (talk) 20:45, 2 May 2023 (UTC)
 * Do I look like I'm kidding? A primary source is usually a no-no. Liliana UwU  (talk / contributions) 20:47, 2 May 2023 (UTC)
 * I have to imagine you’re kidding. Because making me Cite a first name is a ridiculous request. His nickname “Ty” wasn’t cited before I changed it? MSUCAT (talk) 20:48, 2 May 2023 (UTC)
 * No, I'm not kidding. First off, as a family member, you should not edit the article, as clearly explained above. Secondly, if reliable secondary sources refer to him as Tyler, then it'll be changed accordingly, but for now it isn't the case. Liliana UwU  (talk / contributions) 20:51, 2 May 2023 (UTC)
 * what reliable source labeled him as “Ty”? Is this really happening? You’re picking a battle over a name you know nothing about? MSUCAT (talk) 20:53, 2 May 2023 (UTC)
 * So primary sources are incorrect? Am I being misleading or lacking information by correcting his first name? MSUCAT (talk) 20:49, 2 May 2023 (UTC)
 * “ A primary source may be used on Wikipedia only to make straightforward, descriptive statements of facts that can be verified by any educated person with access to the primary source but without further, specialized knowledge”
 * His real name is public knowledge. While “Ty” is used in articles. That doesn’t mean his Real name is “Ty”. MSUCAT (talk) 20:52, 2 May 2023 (UTC)
 * Seems reasonable enough. I've changed the lead to say Tyler "Ty" Okada. Liliana UwU  (talk / contributions) 21:40, 2 May 2023 (UTC)


 * To be more clear, because you have an admitted conflict of interest you should not be editing Ty Okada directly at all. Any change in content needs to be requested directly on the article's talk page. GPL93 (talk) 11:23, 3 May 2023 (UTC)

Please do not add or change content, as you did at Ty Okada, without citing a reliable source. Please review the guidelines at Citing sources and take this opportunity to add references to the article. Read what I sent above. Liliana UwU  (talk / contributions) 20:43, 2 May 2023 (UTC)


 * Are you asking me to cite his first name? MSUCAT (talk) 20:45, 2 May 2023 (UTC)
