Hello, Mepstein108. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about on the page Mark Epstein, 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 edit COI template);
 * disclose your conflict of interest when discussing affected articles (see );
 * avoid linking to your organization's website in other articles (see );
 * 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.  Yoshi24517 ( Chat ) ( Online ) 21:00, 22 January 2024 (UTC)

Follow-up
The paragraph in the Mark Epstein article that confused the subject with Mark Epstein (property developer) has now been removed and the article protected from editing by unregistered and new editors on grounds of violation of Wikipedia's policy against inadequately supported or biased content in articles on living people; both actions by administrator. I apologize on behalf of Wikipedia for that wrong paragraph and for the brusque way you were reverted. I'd like to give you a couple of links: Wikipedia:Contact us/Article subjects on how to report inaccurate content on the article talk page; the linked Wikipedia:FAQ/Article subjects, much of which is concerned with self-promotion, but which includes e-mail addresses for contacting the Volunteer Response Team; and Wikipedia:Advice to biography subjects, an essay that reproduces advice commonly given by the Volunteer Response Team. I hope these will not be necessary for you to use in the future. I am now going to seed the article with hidden messages pointing to the other article, if none already exist.
