User talk:65.51.145.131
Welcome!
[edit]Hello and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions.
I noticed that one of the first articles you edited was Greenwich, Connecticut, which appears to be dealing with a topic with which you may have a conflict of interest. In other words, you may find it difficult to write about that topic in a neutral and objective way, because you are, work for, or represent, the subject of that article. Your recent contributions may have already been undone for this very reason.
To reduce the chances of your contributions being undone, you might like to draft your revised article before submission, and then ask me or another editor to proofread it. See our help page on userspace drafts for more details. If the page you created has already been deleted from Wikipedia, but you want to save the content from it to use for that draft, don't hesitate to ask anyone from this list and they will copy it to your user page.
One rule we do have in connection with conflicts of interest is that accounts used by more than one person will unfortunately be blocked from editing. Wikipedia generally does not allow editors to have usernames which imply that the account belongs to a company or corporation. If you have a username like this, you should request a change of username or create a new account. (A name that identifies the user as an individual within a given organization may be OK.)
In addition, you must disclose your employer, client, and affiliation with respect to any contribution for which you receive, or expect to receive, compensation (see WP:PAID).

Managing a conflict of interest
[edit] Hello, 65.51.145.131. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places, or things you have written about in the article Greenwich, Connecticut, you may have a conflict of interest (COI). Editors with a COI may be unduly influenced by their connection to the topic, and it is important when editing Wikipedia articles that such connections be completely transparent. See the conflict of interest guideline and FAQ for organizations for more information. In particular, we ask that you please:
- avoid editing or creating articles related to you and your family, friends, school, company, club, or organization, as well as any competing companies' projects or products;
- instead, you are encouraged to propose changes on the Talk pages of affected article(s) (see the {{request edit}} template);
- when discussing affected articles, disclose your COI (see WP:DISCLOSE);
- avoid linking to the Wikipedia article or to the website of your organization in other articles (see WP:SPAM);
- exercise great caution so that you do not violate Wikipedia's content policies.
In addition, you must disclose your employer, client, and affiliation with respect to any contribution for which you receive, or expect to receive, compensation (see WP:PAID).
Please take a few moments to read and review Wikipedia's policies regarding conflicts of interest, especially those pertaining to neutral point of view, sourcing and autobiographies. Hi! I undid your edits (again) because you didn't seem to change what you put originally, which was a smidge problematic. Instead of undoing my undo, maybe look over the links I provided, especially the NPOV/COI sections? If you need help, feel free to visit the Teahouse or put "help" in double braces ({{}}) on your talk page. Thanks! ɯɐɔ 💬 23:32, 3 January 2017 (UTC)

Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Wikipedia, as you did at One Week (song). Your edits appear to constitute vandalism and have been reverted.

[edit]Hi, I just wanted to let you know that there's a reply to your message on my Talk Page with some explanation as to what might have triggered the COI. ɯɐɔ 💬 01:37, 8 January 2022 (UTC)
