September 2010[edit]

Welcome to Wikipedia. If you are affiliated with some of the people, places or things you have written about in the article Chi-X Europe, you may have a conflict of interest. In keeping with Wikipedia's neutral point of view policy, edits where there is a conflict of interest, or where such a conflict might reasonably be inferred, are strongly discouraged. If you have a conflict of interest, you should avoid or exercise great caution when:

editing or creating articles related to you, your organization, or its competitors, as well as projects and products they are involved with;
participating in deletion discussions about articles related to your organization or its competitors; and
linking to the Wikipedia article or website of your organization in other articles (see Wikipedia:Spam).

Please familiarize yourself with relevant policies and guidelines, especially those pertaining to neutral point of view, verifiability of information, and autobiographies.

For information on how to contribute to Wikipedia when you have a conflict of interest, please see our frequently asked questions for organizations. Thank you. ukexpat (talk) 17:55, 7 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Please stop. If you continue to add promotional material to Wikipedia, as you did to Chi-X Europe, you may be blocked from editing. ukexpat (talk) 20:40, 7 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Best practices for editors with conflicts of interest[edit]

Hi SCL2010, you may find Wikipedia:Best practices for editors with conflicts of interest a useful read. In particular, please do not make further edits to Chi-X Europe, but instead suggest changes at Talk:Chi-X Europe that are backed up by references to reliable sources and then other editors can add it to the article if they feel it is appropriate. Ukexpat has also posted at the conflict of interest noticeboard, here where you are welcome to comment. Please let me know if you have any questions regarding this.

Note also that press releases are not considered reliable sources at any time (other than as sources of claims made by the entity releasing them). --Orange Mike | Talk 17:38, 8 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Hello. In case you didn't know, when you add content to talk pages and Wikipedia pages that have open discussion, you should sign your posts by typing four tildes ( ~~~~ ) at the end of your comment. You could also click on the signature button located above the edit window. This will automatically insert a signature with your username or IP address and the time you posted the comment.
