Hello, I'm 1AmNobody24. I noticed that you made a change to an article, Preqin, but you didn't provide a source. I’ve removed it for now, but if you’d like to include a citation to a reliable source and re-add it, please do so! If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks. 1AmNobody24 (talk) 16:18, 30 March 2023 (UTC)

Please do not add or change content, as you did at Preqin, without citing a reliable source. Please review the guidelines at Wikipedia:Citing sources and take this opportunity to add references to the article. The appointmend should be sourced 1AmNobody24 (talk) 09:05, 31 March 2023 (UTC)

Conflict of interest

Hello, Wenlake. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about on the page Preqin, 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.  Velella  ^{Velella Talk}   14:03, 31 March 2023 (UTC)

Edit Requests

Hello, As an editor with conflict of interst (see above), you really should not be editing the article directly. Instead, you should make edit requests on the article talk page. The edit request wizard can walk you through the edit request process. Let me know if you have questions. ~ ONUnicorn^{(Talk|Contribs)}problem solving 14:25, 31 March 2023 (UTC)

Hello,

Thank you for your message and understand that is the case, I will not make any changes to this page following this advice. I did however, notice that the website has been blacklisted. Preqin is a leading alternatives assets data provider and publisher, it is frequently cited in leading news outlets like Financial Times and Bloomberg as a source for data and research on the industry:

Asia’s growth companies buck a slowing trend | Financial Times (ft.com)

and Women struggle to close corporate America’s gender gap | Financial Times (ft.com), Private markets getting more accessible to public as funds roll out credit options - BNN Bloomberg.

Preqin is a valued source for media outlets covering private markets and citations to content and data should add value to the Wikipedia community.

Can you please let me know the next steps to having page removed from the black list? Thank you! Wenlake (talk) 11:43, 6 April 2023 (UTC)
