Welcome[edit]

Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. While we appreciate that you enjoy using Wikipedia, please note that Wikipedia is an encyclopedia and not a place for blogging or promotion. So please do not try to use Wikipedia to promote yourself or your family, band, product, or company. The subjects of our articles have to meet certain notability requirements and be written from a neutral point of view. Off-topic material may be deleted at any time, even if it's on your user page. We're sorry if this message has discouraged you from editing here, but the ultimate goal of this website is to build an encyclopedia. Thank you.--VViking_TalkEdits 13:14, 13 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Help me![edit]

This help request has been answered. If you need more help, you can ask another question on your talk page, contact the responding user(s) directly on their user talk page, or consider visiting the Teahouse.

Totally understand. I wasn't trying to promote. I was trying to edit the page so that the current staff and CEO is reflected -- the page right now is 2 years out of date. Please let me know what I should remove from my original edits so that the edits can be accepted and the encyclopedia can function as it is supposed to -- with accurate information. 2601:43:280:8C30:7093:4FA1:65BA:2364 (talk) 13:18, 13 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Hello! From an initial glance of these edits, it appears the website of Religion News Service was used as a primary source. You may want to read Wikipedia's policy on primary sources. Editors are discouraged from basing entire articles or large passages on these types of sources. I would look to find additional, reliable sources and read our page on writing from a neutral point of view. If you need additional advice, feel free to reply to this comment! Thanks, TG HL ↗ 15:39, 13 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Managing a conflict of interest[edit]

Hello, Emily.m.churchill. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about on the page Religion News Service, 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 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 WP:Spam);
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. Tacyarg (talk) 18:29, 13 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
