Managing a conflict of interest
Hello, Tommartin77. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about on the page Glenn McGrath, 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 or competitors;
 * propose changes on the talk pages of affected articles (you can use the request edit template);
 * disclose your conflict of interest when discussing affected articles (see Conflict of interest);
 * avoid linking to your organization's website in other articles (see Spam);
 * 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. My Pants Metal (talk) 00:54, 22 October 2021 (UTC)

Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Wikipedia, as you did at Glenn McGrath. Your edits appear to be disruptive and have been or will be reverted. Please ensure you are familiar with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines, and please do not continue to make edits that appear disruptive. Continued disruptive editing may result in loss of editing privileges. Thank you. My Pants Metal (talk) 01:01, 22 October 2021 (UTC)
 * If you are engaged in an article content dispute with another editor, please discuss the matter with the editor at their talk page, or the article's talk page, and seek consensus with them. Alternatively, you can read Wikipedia's dispute resolution page, and ask for independent help at one of the relevant noticeboards.
 * If you are engaged in any other form of dispute that is not covered on the dispute resolution page, please seek assistance at Wikipedia's Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents.


 * In particular, removing something that's rather negative is an issue if you're saying that you're being paid by him, essentially. If you can add helpful references to, for example, show that the figure for the foundation needs to be updated, then that has the potential to be helpful. But references and making sure you declare any conflict of interest properly are important (I know they don't always seem to be, but they really are).
 * Two other small things: mostly we would refer to someone by their surname in an article; and we really don't need to name his small child unless they have notability. This is basic digital privacy for the child as much as anything else. Blue Square Thing (talk) 05:22, 22 October 2021 (UTC)
