Managing a conflict of interest

Hello, Nick12506. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about in the page SourceForts, 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, company, organization or competitors;
• propose changes on the talk pages of affected articles (see the {{request edit}} template);
• disclose your conflict of interest when discussing affected articles (see WP:DISCLOSE);
• avoid linking to your organization's website in other articles (see WP:SPAM);
• do your best to comply with Wikipedia's content policies.

In addition, you must 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 WP:PAID).

Also please note that editing for the purpose of advertising, publicising, or promoting anyone or anything is not permitted. Thank you. Abecedare (talk) 01:34, 18 May 2019 (UTC)

Hello, I saw your generic reply and would like you to look into the other persons edits. My edits are only factual, I am trying to better a page that hasn't had any real updates in over a decade. I believe that I am in the right with concerns to my edits and that the only COI is related to Eik's tenure with the administration not looking into the types of edits he's making and just with his overall rating.

Please, his edit on removing the genre of the game is the most obvious example that he has repeatedly degraded and vandalised the page. I would rather have the page locked then allow his incorrect information to be posted. Nick12506 (talk) 01:44, 18 May 2019 (UTC)Nick12506

Nick, my message above was solely related to your conflict of interest with respect to SourceForts. As a developer of the game, you should not be editing its wikipedia article. Instead use Talk:SourceForts to point out concerns and propose edits. As for the content issues themselves: I see that you have tried to discuss the issue at the article talkpage and at Eik Corell's talkpage. That is good! But since you have apparently not been able to settle the issue, I suggest you request editors Wikiproject Videogames to help out.

PS: Some of Eik Corell edits may well be disputable (I don't know enough about the subject to be sure), but it is not helpful to label them vandalism or suggest conflict of interest on their part, since both those terms have very specific meanings on wikipedia and do not apply in this instance.

Abecedare Thank you for your time. I will attempt to ask for the editors and will try to keep it to the talk page.

Hello and welcome to Wikipedia. When you add content to talk pages and Wikipedia pages that have open discussion (but never when editing articles), please be sure to sign your posts. There are two ways to do this. Either:

1. Add four tildes ( ~~~~ ) at the end of your comment, or
2. With the cursor positioned at the end of your comment, click on the signature button located above the edit window.

This will automatically insert a signature with your username or IP address and the time you posted the comment. This information is necessary to allow other editors to easily see who wrote what and when.

Thank you. -- ferret (talk) 03:02, 18 May 2019 (UTC)

Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Wikipedia, as you did at SourceForts. Your edits appear to be disruptive and have been or will be reverted.

• If you are engaged in an article content dispute with another editor, please discuss the matter with the editor at their talk page, or the article's talk page, and seek consensus with them. Alternatively, you can read Wikipedia's dispute resolution page, and ask for independent help at one of the relevant notice boards.
• If you are engaged in any other form of dispute that is not covered on the dispute resolution page, please seek assistance at Wikipedia's Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents.

Please ensure you are familiar with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines, and please do not continue to make edits that appear disruptive. Continued disruptive editing may result in loss of editing privileges. You've been informed repeatedly about conflict of interest in editing this article, and continue to edit war against multiple experienced editors on MOS and template issues. Please stop. -- ferret (talk) 14:42, 29 May 2019 (UTC)
