Managing a conflict of interest

Hello, Ellis408. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about on Wikipedia, 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
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. Skyerise (talk) 21:38, 19 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

It didn't occur to me to declare myself a Vedantist on my User Page, but after seeing your User Page, it makes sense. I was a huge fan of Huxley from 1961, when I was 13. And adopted the Gita as my path in 1967, three years before I knew there were Vedanta Societies. It's what gives me the knowledge of the history and the library to reference it. When I edit things that touch on Vedanta, I play it straight - not pushing anything that I don't know for a fact and can back up with references. I'm very proud of how the Huxley article came out - it needed that section to understand Huxley's evolution from the PPU to Vedanta. I again apologize for clumsy editing.
