Hello, I'm Jonathan Deamer. I noticed that you added or changed content in an article, Caroline Jones (politician), but you didn't provide a reliable source. It's been removed and archived in the page history for now, but if you'd like to include a citation and re-add it, please do so. You can have a look at referencing for beginners. If you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. Jonathan Deamer (talk) 17:04, 13 May 2024 (UTC)

Managing a conflict of interest
Hello, TJohnClark. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about on the page Bangor Aberconwy (UK Parliament constituency), 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:


 * 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)—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. Jonathan Deamer (talk) 17:05, 13 May 2024 (UTC)


 * Hello Jonathan
 * I apologise.
 * I added myself to the candidate list on your Bangor Aberconwy (UK Parliament constituency) page, which I can now see contradicts your 'conflict of interest' rules.
 * The information I added is however correct. I am a candidate and I have included a citation, and I would like to have my name included in that list.
 * I have added a 'Connected contributor' statement to the affected talk page. Please could you check it for me?
 * Or if you prefer please delete my original edit and I can ask for someone else to add my name to the list?
 * I apologise again. I understand Wikipedia's rules now relating to conflicts of interest and it will not happen again.
 * Thank you TJohnClark (talk) 17:54, 13 May 2024 (UTC)
 * Thanks @TJohnClark, I appreciate your response. The COI declaration you've added to the article's talk page looks good. I can see you've added neutral and sourced information, so it's good to stay there. Glad you've read and understand the rules - I do hope you'll continue to edit in other areas :) Jonathan Deamer (talk) 18:07, 13 May 2024 (UTC)
