Hello, I'm Mako001. I noticed that in this edit to Emma Smith, you removed content without adequately explaining why. In the future, it would be helpful to others if you described your changes to Wikipedia with an edit summary. If this was a mistake, don't worry, the removed content has been restored. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. Mako001 (C) (T)  🇺🇦 03:40, 4 September 2022 (UTC)

Managing a conflict of interest
Hello, RondaLDS. 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, clients, 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. You clearly have a conflict of interest to do with anything related to Joseph Smith. Mako001 (C) (T)  🇺🇦 03:41, 4 September 2022 (UTC)


 * Sorry to burst your COI bubble, but Emma Smith herself even said many times that her husband Joseph Smith Jr was NOT a polygamist (which is actually cited in this article...also cited is the fact that 1,000 Relief Society women signed a paper verifying Joseph wasn't polygamous as well). So how does saying she was his wife present a COI?  I only changed "first wife of Joseph Smith" to "the wife of Joseph Smith" because that's what she said and maintained throughout her lifetime. Is  Wikipedia trying to make her out to be a fraud? I find this very odd and contradictory to what she and her children always said.. RondaLDS (talk) 04:19, 4 September 2022 (UTC)
