Welcome to Wikipedia. The recent edit you made to Milton Hershey School has been reverted, as it appears to be unconstructive. Use the sandbox for testing; if you believe the edit was constructive, ensure that you provide an informative edit summary. You may also wish to read the introduction to editing. Thank you.

Managing a conflict of interest

[edit]

Information icon Hello, 64.246.196.64. We welcome your contributions to Wikipedia, but if you are affiliated with some of the people, places or things you have written about on Wikipedia, you may have a conflict of interest.

All editors are required to comply with Wikipedia's neutral point of view content policy. People who are very close to a subject often have a distorted view of it, which may cause them to inadvertently edit in ways that make the article either too flattering or too disparaging. People with a close connection to a subject are not absolutely prohibited from editing about that subject, but they need to be especially careful about ensuring their edits are verified by reliable sources and writing with as little bias as possible.

If you are very close to a subject, here are some ways you can reduce the risk of problems:

  • Avoid or exercise great caution when editing or creating articles related to you, your organization, or its competitors, as well as projects and products they are involved with.
  • Avoid linking to the Wikipedia article or website of your organization in other articles (see Wikipedia:Spam).
  • Exercise great caution so that you do not accidentally breach Wikipedia's content policies.

Please familiarize yourself with relevant content policies and guidelines, especially those pertaining to neutral point of view, verifiability of information, and autobiographies.

For information on how to contribute to Wikipedia when you have a conflict of interest, please see our frequently asked questions for organizations. Thank you. —    Bill W.    (Talk)  (Contrib)  (User:Wtwilson3)  — 19:12, 12 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Information icon Hello, I'm Randompointofview. Wikipedia is written by people who have a wide diversity of opinions, but we try hard to make sure articles have a neutral point of view. Your recent edit to Milton Hershey School seemed less than neutral and has been removed. If you think this was a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. If the lawsuit has been thrown out, write that and cite a valid source. If you are part of the school management (as the data suggests), follow our related conflict of interest polices.

For your/everyone's information: I confirmed the information cannot be removed, but I did put in the reporting about the ended lawsuit. Please note, bare URL citations are not allowed, and usually but not always, MLA is used. Also, please state if you are part of the management or otherwise forced/paid to edit Wikipedia in any way.

Information icon Hello, I'm Xtat1c. I noticed that you recently removed content from Milton Hershey School without adequately explaining why. In the future, it would be helpful to others if you described your changes to Wikipedia with an accurate edit summary. If this was a mistake, don't worry; the removed content has been restored. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page.
