Managing a conflict of interest
Hello, StacyMadl. We welcome your contributions to Wikipedia, but if you have an external relationship with some of the people, places or things you have written about in the article ‎Ziggy Lorenc, you may have a conflict of interest or close connection to the subject.

All editors are required to comply with Wikipedia's neutral point of view content policy. People who are very close to a subject often have a distorted view of it, which may cause them to inadvertently edit in ways that make the article either too flattering or too disparaging. People with a close connection to a subject are not absolutely prohibited from editing about that subject, but they need to be especially careful about ensuring their edits are verified by reliable sources and writing with as little bias as possible.

If you are very close to a subject, here are some ways you can reduce the risk of problems:


 * Avoid or exercise great caution when editing or creating articles related to you, your organization, or its competitors, as well as projects and products they are involved with.
 * Avoid linking to the Wikipedia article or website of your organization in other articles (see Spam).
 * Exercise great caution so that you do not accidentally breach Wikipedia's content policies.

Please familiarize yourself with relevant content policies and guidelines, especially those pertaining to neutral point of view, verifiability of information, and autobiographies. Note that Wikipedia's terms of use require disclosure of your employer, client, and affiliation with respect to any contribution for which you receive, or expect to receive, compensation.

For information on how to contribute to Wikipedia when you have a conflict of interest, please see our frequently asked questions for organizations. Thank you. Joseph2302 (talk) 23:48, 15 June 2015 (UTC)


 * Also, so you know, the reason your edits were deleted is because they weren't neutral tone, instead they were promotional, and they were not accompanied by reliable sources. Everything added to Wikipedia has to be verifiable, and so must be accompanied by reliable sources- see WP:Identifying reliable sources for how to find sources. Note, that claiming to be the person, or friend/family of the person is not a verifiable fact, and is therefore not a reliable source. Joseph2302 (talk) 23:50, 15 June 2015 (UTC)

Ok well how do i verify a persons life. Most of the stuff I know about her is talking about her telling me, not in some promotional way, but in the way a family member talks to one another, how do I verify this stuff. Like if she goes on a flight and I write about it am I supposed to post pictures of plane tickets? I get when writing about anime or books or stuff you can easily verify things cause its all written down, but how do I verify anything a person has done, okay some of her stuff is on tv, easy to verify, but her parents are from the war and without birth certificates, how am I supposed to verifiy to wikipedia that that they even existed. Like I get referencing everything but not everything is verifiable and it takes away form the article, there were two sentences on her page before, someone could have edited it, or asked me to edit and add references and changes instead of just taking the whole thing down. I don't live with her, I don't see her everyday, we aren't even technically related, she is the step mom, of my bf. Pretty much I need to know what exact references you guys want. Pretty much everything I wrote can be references in her biography. Although I get the feeling that doesn't count. So please tell me what does.
