Managing a conflict of interest
Hello, Tom Talleur. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about on the page ROSAT, 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. Thebirdlover (talk) 17:04, 27 April 2024 (UTC)


 * The ROSAT article on Wikipedia is factually incorrect. I added my comments because I actually know the facts since I am the author of the report that has been misinterpreted.
 * Unlike the sources for your article, I, as a Federal Law Enforcement Executive, had to tell the truth and speak on the basis of facts, supported by evidence, and applied logically. To cite my contributions as a conflict of interest is dispicable when I am the authoritative source of the story written about me and my work. I know the facts. The media does not. To not allow me to correct the record for the benefit of the public and researchers who are interested in satellite cyber crime is a disservice to your readers. You should be ashamed of yourselves.
 * Wikipedia has just lost all credibility with me. Tom Talleur (talk) 17:19, 27 April 2024 (UTC)
