Managing a conflict of interest
[edit] Hello, Edit Team 2022. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about on the page Laurent Lamothe, 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. Drmies (talk) 15:37, 24 January 2023 (UTC)

- Hi there, thank you for unblocking my account. In terms of conflict of interest I am not connected in any way to the subject of this page. I am a researcher and writer based in Cape Town, South Africa. The reason I wanted to update this page was I needed to research Laurent Lamothe for an article on Haiti that I am writing. I was so frustrated that this page was so outdated and the links did not work. So I thought I would update this page. Can I go ahead in edit the page? Or should I submit my proposed changes for approval? AJ Richardson (talk) 16:27, 24 January 2023 (UTC)
