User talk:Trish at Wings for Life World Run

I am a freelance writer/editor who is paid by the Wings for Life World Run, and this is my first involvement with the Wikipedia editing process. I would like to edit, or suggest edits, to the Wings for Life World Run page at https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wings_for_Life_World_Run

These edits are intended to: 1) clean up incorrect grammar/awkward usage and provide a more encyclopedic tone in alignment with Wikipedia's standards 2) correct existing factual errors 3) update/clarify certain facts that are correct only when provided in reference to a particular time period

I formerly wrote for Encyclopaedia Britannica, so I am sensitive to the need to keep the text neutral and factual. My understanding is that it would be permissible for me to go ahead and fix small, blatant grammar problems; but because of my conflict of interest, I am hesitant to do so without authorization.

So in short, I would appreciate: - confirmation that fixing small grammar problems on my own is acceptable - guidance on how to request edits for larger problems in the text

Many thanks in advance.

 * Trish, thanks for disclosing your affiliation first. In general, the guidelines WP:COI and WP:PAID are pretty clear that you shouldn't be editing the article directly. Instead, you can use the template at the article's talk page Talk:Wings for Life World Run. Simple grammar edits should be uncontroversial, detailed edits should include references to reliable sources and be from a neutral point of view as you alluded to above. If you have any other questions, you can reply here with  or use the  template. That will get someone's attention directly. Thanks, shoy (reactions) 14:27, 10 April 2019 (UTC)
