Managing a conflict of interest

[edit]

Information icon Hello, Gabriel2954. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about on the page Lanka Bandaranayake, 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:

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. Jeraxmoira (talk) 05:15, 21 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Dear Jeraxmoira,
I do not have any personal or professional relationship with Lanka Bandaranayake, and I was not paid for this article. I wrote about the short film Tradition (2016) and found out about this filmmaker from Sri Lanka. I felt like she should be included in a Wikippedia page. That is why I wrote this. I am not doing it for any purposes, such as advertising, publicizing, or promoting anyone or anything.Thanks. Gabriel2954 (talk) 06:12, 21 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
It looks very evident as most of the content that you added has no sources backing it up. I did a very good research finding sources to move it into main space but couldn't find any. Looks more like original research to me. Jeraxmoira (talk) 06:23, 21 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
I confirm that this is not original research, and I used primary and secondary sources in this article. I used peer-reviewed journal articles, magazines, and journals published by respected publishing houses and mainstream newspapers to develop this article. I may have had issues with my writing style because I am new to writing articles and am still developing my skills. Thanks. Gabriel2954 (talk) 06:52, 21 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
At this point [1], 28 November 2021‎, how did you know that
"She was a jury member for fiction in Sound & Image Challenge International Festival in 2018 and 2019 at Macau, also, she joined as a curator to the same festival in 2019."
Lost (Fiction, 1’, 2019) Director, Script, Camera, Edit and Sound Design (One-minute film challenge at Satyajit Ray film Academy, Kolkata).
"Festival Screenings The short film was selected to more than 50"
and at this point [2], how did you know that
"Again she received a scholarship to complete her Master of Arts in Directing Film and Television at Bournemouth University in the United Kingdom where she completed the degree with distinction."
Similarly, can you explain how you made all the unsourced claims on her article? Jeraxmoira (talk) 07:25, 21 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
I will share links bellowwitho them.

I made unsourced claims because I didn't know the correct format to write the article. When my article continued to decline, I realised something was wrong with my writing, and I asked for help from other editors in the help Wikipedia portal. Gabriel2954 (talk) 07:51, 21 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
I got some information from the below Wikipedia page as well.

Do you know Lanka nBandaranayake personally or professionally outside of Wikipedia? Jeraxmoira (talk) 13:04, 21 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
No, I don't. Gabriel2954 (talk) 13:22, 21 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
In one of your conversations above with the user trade, you have indicated that you are the copyright holder of Tradition (film). How are you not related to Lanka Bandaranayake, but own the copyrights of her film? Jeraxmoira (talk) 13:37, 21 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
I did not know Lanka Bandaranayake personally or professionally. I found her email on one of the websites and contacted her to get pictures of her and her film to include in the article. She shared some pictures and granted copyright for those pictures only to be included in the article. I did this solely out of my interest in publishing the article. I was not paid for any previously published articles. Gabriel2954 (talk) 13:47, 21 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Per WP:COI, Any external relationship can trigger a conflict of interest. You did not reveal that you emailed her till now. I would advise you to stop making any changes to Lanka Bandaranayake and Tradition (film) until you have disclosed the COI and make only edit requests after disclosing it. If not, I'll be taking this to Wikipedia:Conflict of interest/Noticeboard Jeraxmoira (talk) 16:49, 21 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Warning icon Please stop. If you continue to remove maintenance templates without resolving the problem that the template refers to, as you did at Lanka Bandaranayake, you may be blocked from editing. Jeraxmoira (talk) 05:19, 21 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Dear Jeraxmoira,
I am sorry to have made these mistakes. I am new to this platform and am still learning from my mistakes. Gabriel2954 (talk) 05:50, 21 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
If it is still not resolved, I would appreciate it if you could please help me with it. Thanks in advance. Gabriel2954 (talk) 05:51, 21 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
A neutral editor needs to remove the COI tag once the article is cleaned up. You need to declare the COI in your user page and at the article talk page before you start contriubitng to Lanka Bandaranayake. Here is how you can disclose it - Wikipedia:Conflict of interest § How to disclose a COI
After disclosing, you can use the COI Wikipedia:Edit Request Wizard to request for edits on that article.
Side note: You do not own that article. See WP:OWN. (a person or organization, does not own the article, nor has any right to dictate what the article may or may not say) Jeraxmoira (talk) 06:19, 21 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks for the information. All the best! Gabriel2954 (talk) 08:09, 21 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Notice of Conflict of interest noticeboard discussion

[edit]

Information icon There is currently a discussion at Wikipedia:Conflict of interest/Noticeboard regarding a possible conflict of interest incident with which you may be involved. Thank you. Jeraxmoira (talk) 19:40, 21 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I disclosed the COI on the page yesterday, but now I can see that you have removed it from the section. Why did you do that? Gabriel2954 (talk) 03:11, 22 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Sorry, you did not do that, but some other editor did. That editor asked me to add my COI to the talk page instead of the CIO Templete section. But since the case is on the noticeboard, I will not do that to avoid further confusion. I will wait until the reviewers decide what to do with it. Thanks. Gabriel2954 (talk) 04:18, 22 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

January 2024

[edit]

Stop icon You may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you remove maintenance templates from Wikipedia articles without resolving the problem that the template refers to. You have recieved a warning about this already. Do not remove a maintainence template from Lanka Bandaranayake again. Flagging it as minor is throughly unimpressive. RetroCosmos talk 05:56, 14 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

This case was posted on the noticeboard on November 22, 2023, but until today, nothing has happened. I thought it was okay to remove it because nothing has happened since then. Can you please let me know how to resolve the problem? Thanks. Gabriel2954 (talk) 18:02, 18 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I was alerted on the COI feed that you removed a COI notice from the page again. The COI notice is regarding you. This was placed by an editor a while back after looking at your post history and the way the article was written, among other factors. I am neither inclined to agree or disagree. Like you have been told multiple times, please do not remove a COI template from an article you have created. As the other editor has said, an uninvolved editor will remove it. I would also advise you to read up on WP:DUCK for the overall community attitude to these matters. Good day—RetroCosmos talk 11:10, 5 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
