Managing a conflict of interest

Hello, Meadowbrookestate. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about on the page Tiffany glass, 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 article subjects 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 {{edit COI}} template)—don't forget to give details of reliable sources supporting your suggestions;
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. Secretlondon (talk) 18:45, 16 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, I am so sorry. An intern from our campus university said her class is researching Tiffany glass, and that Meadow Brook wasn't listed on the museums page as a place they could visit. I didn't even think about it, I just wanted to give her a "win" for making a suggestion that I thought was an easy one (so often, they make suggestions that I can't follow!)

I created this name to show transparency, but I should have gone further to review all of your policies.

To clarify one thing- if something incorrect is posted about Meadow Brook or the Dodge family, who should I contact to have it corrected or amended if I am not able to do so?

I'll delete my account after, I do sincerely apologize. Meadowbrookestate (talk) 20:20, 17 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

If something is wrong comment on the talk page of the article. Wikipedia:Contact_us may be helpful too. Secretlondon (talk) 21:07, 17 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

All right, thank you Meadowbrookestate (talk) 15:32, 18 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Your account has been indefinitely blocked from editing because your account has been used for advertising or promotion, which is contrary to the purpose of Wikipedia. Also, your username gives the impression that the account represents a business, organisation, group, or web site, which is against the username policy.

If you intend to make useful contributions instead of promoting your business or organization, you may request unblock and a username change. In your reasons, you must:

Disclose any compensation you may receive for your contributions in accordance with the paid-contribution disclosure requirement; and
Convince us that you understand the reason for your block and that you will not repeat the kind of edits for which you were blocked; and
Describe in general terms the contributions that you intend to make if you are unblocked; and
Provide a new username.

To do this, post the text {{unblock-spamun|Your proposed new username|Your reason here}} at the bottom of your talk page. Replace the text "Your proposed new username" with your new username and replace the text "Your reason here" with your reasons to be unblocked.

Please note that the new username you choose cannot already be taken and in use by another account. You can go here to search and see if the username you'd like to choose is available. If the search returns that no global account with that username exists, that means it is available to be taken.

Appeals: If, after reviewing the guide to appealing blocks, you believe this block was made in error, you may appeal it by adding the text {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}} at the bottom of your talk page. Replace the text "Your reason here" with the reasons you believe the block was an error, and publish the page. Hey man im josh (talk) 18:51, 16 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
