Managing a conflict of interest

[edit]

Information icon Hello, Oremilhistory. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about in the page Oregon Military Museum, 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, company, organization or competitors;
  • propose changes on the talk pages of affected articles (see the {{request edit}} template);
  • disclose your conflict of interest when discussing affected articles (see WP:DISCLOSE);
  • 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 must 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 WP:PAID).

Also please note that editing for the purpose of advertising, publicising, or promoting anyone or anything is not permitted. Your edits were reverted. Kirbanzo (talk) 01:58, 10 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I will try once again. As I have explained to you, I do not have a conflict of interest. I think you were quick to make a judgement based solely on a user name that I chose. I have told you that I have never been to the museum, have not donated to the museum, do not know anyone who works at the museum. Nor do I have a promotional or advertising agenda. I pointed out that the web page differs from your information. I looked into it and found out that it is not named for any one person. I was told it would not ever be named for one person but for all Oregon service members. I offered you the benefit of my research and the phone numbers of 3 people who could verify what I was told. One was the museum director, the other was the top military person in Oregon and the third was the Inspector General for the military in Oregon. I have asked you to please reinstate my edit changes to reflect what I was told by the military. You have so far been silent on the subject. Oremilhistory (talk) 02:41, 16 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Oregon military museum

[edit]

I'm new to this and not sure I am replying in the proper manner. I just wanted to say that I have never been to the museum, I do not know anyone who works at the museum, I have not donated to the museum, I do not have a conflict of interest. I saw a huge discrepancy in their web site and this wiki page, I looked into this, verified that the museum name was only Oregon Military Museum and gave you the results of my inquiries including people who can confirm that it is honoring all Oregon military members and not one person. I think you were a little fast in your evaluation so ask you to please restore my edits. Oremilhistory (talk) 09:24, 10 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

  • Here is a link to an Oregon Military Department Public Affairs Office photograph taken at the museum dedication ceremony. The narrative that accompanies the photo clearly identifies the museum as the Brig. Gen. James B. Thayer Oregon Military Museum at Camp Withycombe, as does the photograph itself.--Orygun (talk) 19:42, 18 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Also, please note, I was not advertising, publicizing or promoting any one or any thing. I was correcting the naming of the Oregon Military Museum. It is not now named after a person so the Wikipedia page has a huge problem. That's it, period. Oremilhistory (talk) 03:56, 11 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
