Possible conflict of interest at article Bennetta Slaughter

If you are affiliated with some of the people, places or things you have written about in the article Bennetta Slaughter, you may have a conflict of interest. In keeping with Wikipedia's neutral point of view policy, edits where there is a conflict of interest, or where such a conflict might reasonably be inferred, are strongly discouraged. If you have a conflict of interest, you should avoid or exercise great caution when:

1. editing or creating articles related to you, your organization, or its competitors, as well as projects and products they are involved with;
2. participating in deletion discussions about articles related to your organization or its competitors; and
3. linking to the Wikipedia article or website of your organization in other articles (see Wikipedia:Spam).

Please familiarize yourself with relevant 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. Cirt (talk) 20:02, 18 December 2009 (UTC)

Hi, Cirt asked me to comment here. It may be best to familiarize yourself with this page: Business' FAQ. It explains how somebody closely related to a subject can have their concerns address without getting into trouble. Wikipedia has a conflict of interest guideline that strongly discourages editors from writing about themselves and things they are closely connected to. If you have any questions, feel free to contact me. Regards, Jehochman ^{Make my day} 13:53, 22 December 2009 (UTC)
