- Hi BusterD, thank you for the welcome, resources and guidance. As you noted, I have a disclosed conflict of interest with LastPass. Currently, there is a "Security incidents" section on the LastPass page that relies heavily on primary sources, citations that are misrepresented, and other improper cites. Pursuant to WP:COI, I should not edit it myself. I have reached out to multiple editors asking for review and any changes they feel are warranted. I put together a detailed breakdown here. See Talk:LastPass#Poor_citations from November 2023. Would welcome your thoughts. AmyMarchiando (talk) 14:24, 16 February 2024 (UTC)
Managing a conflict of interest
[edit] Hello, AmyMarchiando. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about on the page LastPass, 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 {{edit COI}} 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. BusterD (talk) 23:08, 15 February 2024 (UTC)
- Please don't think I'm accusing you of any wrongdoing. I have added these two standard welcome templates because I thought they would provide useful information to a new user under your circumstances. Perhaps provide a basis for communication between us. For my part, WELCOME! I've looked over your edits and you've demonstrated to my satisfaction you're making a good faith effort to do the right thing here. Thank you. Truly. Please don't think I'm taking a side, but I do appreciate a declared coi user who's trying to follow our social norms, being patient, occasionally waving their hand. If you're willing to follow our pillars, policies and guidelines, I'll try to help you make good decisions. Cool? BusterD (talk) 23:18, 15 February 2024 (UTC)
