Managing a conflict of interest

[edit]

Information icon Hello, JJMOON59. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about on the page 2023 Warrandyte state by-election, 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:

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. —twotwofourtysix(talk || edits) 06:29, 28 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you. Be assured there is no conflict of interest. I restored only the relevant section, and added the candidate in the top right table without inadvertently removing one of the other candidates. I will be more careful with future edits. JJMOON59 (talk) 07:19, 28 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Notice of Conflict of interest noticeboard discussion

[edit]

Information icon 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. —Fazwazzle (talk) 15:10, 4 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you Fazwazzle. I give assurances there is no conflict of interest. My contributions are factual and not designed to gain or reduce advantage. If anything, 'fairness' is my constant guide. All my contributions are carefully considered and I go to great lengths to keep within WIKI's guidelines. In fact I have made minor corrections from conflict of interest updates from other contributors. JJMOON59 (talk) 20:37, 4 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

It's risky to edit your own article if you're in politics!

[edit]

If you are connected to Rebecca Bradley, it's very risky to get caught editing that biography. It gets in the news very quickly and then it blows up. Here's a recent example that's turned into a huge stink for the officials involved:

See their current articles:

More important to their political lives was all the local coverage. It was the lead story for a couple of news cycles.

The press loves "judge edits own Wikipedia article stories". Of course, in this case they especially loved "politicians threaten Wikipedia editors". This happens somewhere every week or two.

If you think that article is incorrect, use Talk:Rebecca Bradley to discuss the edits you recommend others make (consistent with our content guidelines)

Judge Bradley is already on thin ice depending on who looks at the (public) edit history of the article.

No involvement at all. We're wasting far too much effort in these 'talks' rather than focusing on the hijacking of the page. JJMOON59 (talk) 00:47, 6 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
