Many thanks for the input. Although I am the Founder of The Esther Benjamins Trust I actually left the charity in July last year. The subject I write about is of course one that is very close to me on one hand but on the other Esther's death was almost 14 years' ago and I am pretty used to discussing it in objective terms. The main reason for writing this piece was to present some history - including matters that pre-date 1999 and in which I wasn't personally involved. If you see a place for amendment though then I am very willing to see your suggestions. Many thanks

Welcome!

Hello, PhilipfromNepal, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions.

I notice that one of the first articles you edited was Esther Benjamins Trust, which appears to be dealing with a topic with which you may have a conflict of interest. In other words, you may find it difficult to write about that topic in a neutral and objective way, because you are, work for, or represent, the subject of that article. Your recent contributions may have already been undone for this very reason.

To reduce the chances of your contributions being undone, you might like to draft your revised article before submission, and then ask me or any other editor to proofread it. See our help page on userspace drafts for more details. If the page you created has already been deleted from Wikipedia, but you want to save the content from it to use for that draft, don't hesitate to ask anyone from this list and they will copy it to your user page.

One firm rule we do have in connection with conflicts of interest is that accounts used by more than one person will unfortunately be blocked from editing. Wikipedia generally does not allow editors to have usernames which imply that the account belongs to a company or corporation. If you have a username like this, you should request a change of username or create a new account. (A name that identifies the user as an individual within a given organization may be OK.)

Here are some pages that you might find helpful:

I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Please sign your messages on talk pages using four tildes (~~~~); this will automatically insert your username and the date. If you need help, check out Wikipedia:Questions, ask me on my talk page, or ask your question on this page and then place {{help me}} before the question. Again, welcome! —SMALL JIM 11:08, 1 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]
