Hello, I'm Padgriffin. I wanted to let you know that I reverted one of your recent contributions—specifically this edit to Simon Kirke—because it did not appear constructive. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. If you have any questions, you can ask for assistance at the Teahouse or the Help desk. Thanks.

 * Hi Padgriffin,
 * What did you "revert" on the recent edit for Simon Kirke's Wiki page. That was authorized by my husband, Simon Kirke.
 * Thank you,

 * Why were the edits not saved? This is what Simon Kirke requested and authorized. How do we put in the edits without someone blocking them?

Managing a conflict of interest
Hello, Smkirke. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about on the page Simon Kirke, 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 article subjects for more information. We ask that you:


 * propose changes on the talk pages of affected articles (you can use the edit COI template)—don't forget to give details of reliable sources supporting your suggestions;;
 * disclose your conflict of interest when discussing affected articles (see );
 * avoid linking to your organization's website in other articles (see );
 * 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. Andy Mabbett ( Pigsonthewing ); Talk to Andy; Andy's edits 14:19, 9 April 2024 (UTC)
