Managing a conflict of interest

Hello, Ellen Byron-Maria DiRico. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about on the page Ellen Byron‎, 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, clients, 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 Wikipedia:Conflict of interest#How to disclose a COI);
avoid linking to your organization's website in other articles (see Wikipedia:Spam#External link spamming);
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 Wikipedia:Paid-contribution disclosure.

Also, editing for the purpose of advertising, publicising, or promoting anyone or anything is not permitted. Thank you. gobonobo ⁺ ^c 03:38, 13 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Hi - thanks so much for the advice. I'm new to this. I'm thrilled to actually HAVE a Wikipedia page! I don't know who set it up and I'm grateful to them but I did pick up some errors and assumed it was okay to correct them myself. I appreciate that they can be corrected at all! IMDB is the worst when it comes to it. I was NOT born in Los Angeles!

Thanks again. 2603:8001:9500:9E5C:CFD6:E26E:C923:BB36 (talk) 16:37, 13 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
