Conflict of interest and failure to disclose[edit]

Hello, DebSchell. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about on the page Netskope, 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. --Orange Mike | Talk 01:37, 10 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I'm editing for purpose not promotion. 2600:4040:F084:EC00:8C17:C5D4:5C51:ACB3 (talk) 16:43, 10 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Notice of Conflict of interest noticeboard discussion[edit]

There is currently a discussion at Wikipedia:Conflict of interest/Noticeboard regarding a possible conflict of interest incident with which you may be involved. Thank you. Orange Mike | Talk 01:47, 10 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@OrangemikeI have added the disclosure to my User page. I have not done any editing to the Netskope page at this time. Thank you for your patience. I will instead suggest changes to the talk page of Netskope for review and/or approval. Please let me know if there is anything different that I should do.

December 2022[edit]

As previously advised, your edits give the impression you have a financial stake in promoting a topic, but you have not complied with Wikipedia's mandatory paid editing disclosure requirements. You were asked to cease editing until you responded by either stating that you are not being directly or indirectly compensated for your edits, or by complying with the mandatory requirements under the Wikimedia Terms of Use that you disclose your employer, client and affiliation. Again, you can post such a disclosure on your user page at User:DebSchell, and the template {{Paid}} can be used for this purpose – e.g. in the form: {{paid|user=DebSchell|employer=InsertName|client=InsertName}}. Please respond before making any other edits to Wikipedia. 331dot (talk) 14:35, 10 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]
