Thank you for verifying Wiki's policy information. This account does in fact only belong to one person, a volunteer for said organization. Would it be considered a violation of neutral point of view, verifiability of information, or autobiographies if I was solely looking to add a place of burial to existing entries of people who are buried at Laurel Hill Cemetery? Some existing entries already contain the information, others do not. Would adding this information require verification from a neutral source? And if this is the case, any recommendation on the type of source that would best suit this situation?
Thank You. LaurelHillCemetery (talk) 17:19, 13 June 2010 (UTC)
- As a volunteer for the organization, you need to ensure that you are not violating Wikipedia's policy on conflict of interest. All information that you insert needs to be verified in reliable secondary sources. You should not and cannot use organization resources to insert information onto Wikipedia. I would also suggest changing your username to avoid the appearance that there is even the possibility of impropriety or a conflict of interest. — KV5 • Talk • 17:23, 13 June 2010 (UTC)
