Thank you
Hi Richard, I just wanted to thank you for the name correction on J. Russell Nelson. I'm very sorry to hear of your father's passing. Since you are new to Wikipedia, I also want to make you aware of our conflict of interest policy for future reference. Raymie (t • c) 02:33, 25 March 2016 (UTC) Hi Raymie, I'm sorry about my COI issue; it didn't occur to me that it might be an issue. But after reading the guidance I can certainly see how it might be perceived that way, and I won't do it again. I was interviewed by ASU-Now, the online news source at ASU shortly after my Dad died and the potential first name issue didn't come up. My Dad struggled with that name his entire life, and in fact even in death since the SSA is balking at accepting his information because of his first name. ASU-Now actually asked me if I had his birth certificate when I called them on the error. Thanks for being kind to a newbie!--Richardmnelson (talk) 15:00, 25 March 2016 (UTC)
