Managing a conflict of interest
Hello, Samuraibrian. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about on the page Outreach Radio, 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. Thank you. Drmies (talk) 15:50, 18 July 2022 (UTC)


 * Thanks for the information. I am a friend of the owner of the radio station Outreach Radio. I offered to have a go at creating a presence for the station on Wikipedia. No monies, or favours in kind(?) whatever were received - I hoped to learn a bit about becoming a Wikipedia editor / contributor. I found the process (creating the putative page in my Sandbox) somewhat overwhelming, and did not complete it - in particular publishing it. The published page that you now see was created, using ideas from my attempt, by a third party. Sincerely, Jon Samuraibrian (talk) 16:06, 18 July 2022 (UTC)
 * OK--it doesn't matter to me whether you get paid or not; doing a friend a favor is always a good thing, as long as you stick by the guidelines re:neutrality. Please follow the links above so you can properly declare the COI on your user page, and good luck with it. Drmies (talk) 20:29, 18 July 2022 (UTC)
 * CoI box added to the Talk page. Acceptable? Samuraibrian (talk) 23:02, 18 July 2022 (UTC)
 * Looks good. Thanks. Drmies (talk) 00:03, 19 July 2022 (UTC)
