If you have a close connection to some of the people, places or things you have written about, you may have a conflict of interest. In keeping with Wikipedia's neutral point of view policy, edits where there is a conflict of interest, or where such a conflict might reasonably be inferred from the tone of the edit and the proximity of the editor to the subject, are strongly discouraged. If you have a conflict of interest, you should avoid or exercise great caution when:
 * 1) editing or creating articles related to you, your organization, or its competitors, as well as projects and products they are involved with;
 * 2) participating in deletion discussions about articles related to your organization or its competitors; and
 * 3) linking to the Wikipedia article or website of your organization in other articles (see Spam).

Please familiarize yourself with relevant policies and guidelines, especially those pertaining to neutral point of view, verifiability of information, and autobiographies.

For information on how to contribute to Wikipedia when you have conflict of interest, please see our frequently asked questions for organizations. For more details about what, exactly, constitutes a conflict of interest, please see our conflict of interest guidelines. Dan D. Ric (talk) 03:31, 17 May 2009 (UTC)

Robert Hartshorne article
Hello. If you are also the contributor who added this material to the article, as your editing history suggests you may be, please view a note left explaining the removal of that material at User talk:89.240.195.205. There are concerns about that text, which cannot be restored prior to resolution. Thank you. --Moonriddengirl (talk) 13:45, 17 May 2009 (UTC)
 * I'm not sure why you're blanking the article, but please stop. There are constructive ways to fix problems with text. Blanking them or redirecting them off Wikipedia are not among them. Every article has a talk page on which you may discuss its development. Additionally, you have the option of explaining your concerns here. --Moonriddengirl (talk) 15:53, 17 May 2009 (UTC)


 * Ah, I see your note at the IP page. I'm sorry, but British law does not govern Wikipedia, which is based in the United States. I'm also sorry that you are disappointed that your material is not usable in the form in which you wrote it. You are welcome to contribute to the article within policies and guidelines, but I'm afraid that our policies on neutrality and verifiability are core. If you wish to nominate the article on Robert Harshorne for deletion, there are processes set out at Deletion policy, but there would need to be sound reason. --Moonriddengirl (talk) 15:57, 17 May 2009 (UTC)


 * Just as an additional note, if you'd like access to the text for use elsewhere, such as placement on your own company website, it is not irretrievable. You can find it at this link. --Moonriddengirl (talk) 16:00, 17 May 2009 (UTC)
