 * Yes, I am the copy editor of the Communications Dept. of the college. The page hadn't been updated for a looooong time, so I'm doing my best to make it accurate now. Mollywollydoodle (talk) 22:08, 9 June 2022 (UTC)

Hello, Mollywollydoodle. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about on Wikipedia, 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. ElKevbo (talk) 22:43, 9 June 2022 (UTC)


 * OK, got it. But then ... how do we update the page with the accurate facts (including links and citations)? There's a lot on the page that is still out of date or just plain wrong. Mollywollydoodle (talk) 13:06, 10 June 2022 (UTC)


 * Many (but not all!) editors are okay if a COI editor makes very straight-forward and uncontroversial updates to information that's already in an article. But more substantive edits should be requested or suggested in the article's Talk page. ElKevbo (talk) 20:34, 10 June 2022 (UTC)
