User talk:WolfieNair
Welcome!
[edit]Hello, WolfieNair, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions.
I noticed that one of the first articles you edited was Shweta Basu Prasad, 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 another 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 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.)
In addition, if you receive, or expect to receive, compensation for any contribution you make, you must disclose your employer, client, and affiliation to comply with our terms of use and our policy on paid editing.

- Hi! Please do not undo those changes. Shweta Basu Prasad has requested for those changes to be made. She has to have a say in what people read about her. WolfieNair (talk) 15:14, 21 April 2023 (UTC)
- Wikipedia is not a webhost. It is an encyclopedia, and she does not have final say on what is written in the encyclopedia article about her. —C.Fred (talk) 16:26, 21 April 2023 (UTC)

[edit]Hello, WolfieNair, welcome to Wikipedia and thank you for your contributions. Your editing pattern indicates that you may be using multiple accounts or coordinating editing with people outside Wikipedia, such as Thesocialwolfie (talk · contribs). Our policy on multiple accounts usually does not allow this, and users who misuse multiple accounts may be blocked from editing. If you operate multiple accounts directly or with the help of another person, please disclose these connections. Thank you. Jay 💬 13:04, 21 April 2023 (UTC)
- I’d forgotten that username and this was urgent, hence I created a new account. 115.96.228.28 (talk) 03:18, 22 April 2023 (UTC)
- If you have decided which account to discontinue, you can add the template {{User previous account}} to your current account page and {{Old account}} to the old one. Jay 💬 08:35, 22 April 2023 (UTC)

Managing a conflict of interest
[edit]Hello, WolfieNair. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about on the page Shweta Basu Prasad, 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. Geniac (talk) 13:16, 21 April 2023 (UTC)
- With regard to the paid editing disclosure, I have put a {{Connected contributor (paid)}} template on Talk:Shweta Basu Prasad (diff) to alert other users of your status. —C.Fred (talk) 13:43, 21 April 2023 (UTC)
- WolfieNair, I have reverted your edits. Please read and follow the above. Jay 💬 06:28, 23 April 2023 (UTC)
- Reverted your edits and subsequent edits again. Feel free to ask me if you do not understand the above, or you may take the help of an admin or ask at the Teahouse. Jay 💬 04:38, 25 April 2023 (UTC)
