Hello, I'm SummerPhD. I noticed that you recently removed some content from Guthy-Renker without explaining why. In the future, it would be helpful to others if you described your changes to Wikipedia with an edit summary. If this was a mistake, don't worry, the removed content has been restored. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks! SummerPhD (talk) 02:15, 27 November 2012 (UTC)

Welcome back. A question I left for you at Talk:Proactiv Solution hasn't been addressed yet: Have you edited before under any other names or IP addresses? - SummerPhD (talk) 02:18, 27 November 2012 (UTC)

Asked and answered. Now, back to my question: Have you edited previously under another user name and/or without logging in? - SummerPhD (talk) 03:08, 28 November 2012 (UTC)

Conflict of interest at Guthy-Renker‎ and Proactiv Solution

Hello, Nsnoddy. We welcome your contributions to Wikipedia, but if you are affiliated with some of the people, places or things you have written about on Wikipedia, you may need to consider our guidance on conflicts of interest.

All editors are required to comply with Wikipedia's neutral point of view content policy. People who are very close to a subject often have a distorted view of it, which may cause them to inadvertently edit in ways that make the article either too flattering or too disparaging. People with a close connection to a subject are not absolutely prohibited from editing about that subject, but they need to be especially careful about ensuring their edits are verified by reliable sources and writing with as little bias as possible.

If you are very close to a subject, here are some ways you can reduce the risk of problems:

• Avoid or exercise great caution when editing or creating articles related to you, your organization, or its competitors, as well as projects and products they are involved with.
• Be cautious about deletion discussions. Everyone is welcome to provide information about independent sources in deletion discussions, but avoid advocating for deletion of articles about your competitors.
• Avoid linking to the Wikipedia article or website of your organization in other articles (see Wikipedia:Spam).
• Exercise great caution so that you do not accidentally breach Wikipedia's content policies.

Please familiarize yourself with relevant content policies and guidelines, especially those pertaining to neutral point of view, verifiability of information, and autobiographies.

For information on how to contribute to Wikipedia when you have a conflict of interest, please see our frequently asked questions for organizations. Thank you. - SummerPhD (talk) 03:25, 6 December 2012 (UTC)
