RuthieG (talk) 10:05, 9 May 2017 (UTC)== Managing a conflict of interest == Hello, RuthieG. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places, or things you have written about in the article Ruth Gledhill, you may have a conflict of interest (COI). Editors with a COI may be unduly influenced by their connection to the topic, and it is important when editing Wikipedia articles that such connections be completely transparent. See the conflict of interest guideline and FAQ for organizations for more information. In particular, we ask that you please:


 * avoid editing or creating articles related to you and your family, friends, school, company, club, or organization, as well as any competing companies' projects or products;
 * instead, you are encouraged to propose changes on the Talk pages of affected article(s) (see the request edit template);
 * when discussing affected articles, disclose your COI (see WP:DISCLOSE);
 * avoid linking to the Wikipedia article or to the website of your organization in other articles (see WP:SPAM);
 * exercise great caution so that you do not violate Wikipedia's content policies.

In addition, you must 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 WP:PAID).

Please take a few moments to read and review Wikipedia's policies regarding conflicts of interest, especially those pertaining to neutral point of view, sourcing and autobiographies. Thank you. Chaheel Riens (talk) 09:05, 9 May 2017 (UTC)

Thank you for flagging this up and for reaching out. I have tried to request changes on the page's talk page but the most recent attempts to do this were completely unsuccessful and gained no response at all. I've also tried emailing for help, again completely without success. One result of these previous attempts was a ban on my IP address, although the Wiki edit name cited in the ban was not a name I've ever used and I've never ever done anything remotely hostile, negative, inaccurate or spammy about anyone at all on Wiki. In addition I've only ever used my own name with one account to attempt to edit any Wiki pages but because of that ban, have just had to create a completely new account - this one.
