Managing a conflict of interest
Hello, Mirandasita. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about in the page Draft:Timothy Denevi, you may have a conflict of interest (COI). Editors with a COI 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, company, organization or competitors;
 * propose changes on the talk pages of affected articles (see the request edit template);
 * disclose your COI when discussing affected articles (see WP:DISCLOSE);
 * avoid linking to your organization's website in other articles (see WP:SPAM);
 * do your best to comply with Wikipedia's content policies.

In addition, you must disclose your employer, client, and affiliation with respect to any contribution for which you receive, or expect to receive, compensation (see WP:PAID).

Also please note that editing for the purpose of advertising, publicising, or promoting anyone or anything is not permitted. Thank you. Brad v  06:15, 16 June 2018 (UTC)
 * Hi! I'm so very new to this, thank you for your help. I worked hard to choose a subject for my first page that I knew I would have no conflict of interest with. Just someone I found myself googling who didn't already have a wiki. I do work in the book publishing industry (for a small journalism imprint called Columbia Global Reports...thus me being the type who wants to get into writing for Wikipedia), but I assure you that I have not even read either of Denevi's two books, nor do I know him or have any interest in promoting his work. I am familiar enough reading his words on Literary Hub each week that he seemed like a good subject to research and create a page for. Please let me know if I can format any better. Or maybe my use of his Election night 2016 quote is too inflammatory? I put a ton of work into this and hope to get better at writing pages soon. But as far as your concern, I am receiving no payment for this and to my knowledge have no conflict of interest. Mirandasita (talk) 16:45, 18 June 2018 (UTC)
 * I'm a little confused by this explanation, as you uploaded File:Denevi.jpg and claimed it was your own work. If you don't have a conflict of interest, where did this picture come from? Brad  v  17:04, 18 June 2018 (UTC)
