Managing a conflict of interest
Hello, StevePR1231. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about on the page Draft:Matt Baker (mathematician and magician), 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 edit COI template);
 * 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. - Rich T&#124;C&#124;E-Mail 01:50, 4 February 2024 (UTC)


 * Rich,
 * Thanks for the note...it's much appreciated. I've tried to keep Matt's writeup as "vendor-neutral" as possible.  Everything that's been written is factual and documented, with what I believe to be an absolute absence of over-the-top language. I have no problem in disclosing that I know Matt and consider him to be a friend, but hope that would not preclude me from submitting this article.
 * Thanks for your understanding.
 * Cheers,
