Managing a conflict of interest

FAQ for organizations
for more information. We ask that you:

  • avoid editing or creating articles about yourself, your family, friends, company, organization or competitors;
  • propose changes on the talk pages of affected articles (see the {{request edit}} template);
  • disclose your conflict of interest when discussing affected articles (see WP:DISCLOSE);
  • avoid linking to your organization's website in other articles (see WP:SPAM);
  • do your best to comply with Wikipedia's content policies.

In addition, you must 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 WP:PAID).

Also please note that editing for the purpose of advertising, publicising, or promoting anyone or anything is not permitted. Thank you. Chris Troutman (talk) 20:31, 13 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, yes indeed I am the person described in the page Pedro Pedrosa Mendes. I did not create that page and my edit was only factual (current employment). I do understand COI and if you think my edit on that page needs to be reverted I will be happy with that (as well as with someone else to update it). Gepasi (talk) 20:40, 13 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
"I do understand COI" Clearly not; you should never edit an article about yourself, especially with the weak claim that you were making factual edits. Regardless, I've nominated the article for deletion. Had you not advertised yourself I wouldn't have had to investigate. Any good Wikipedian would have read up on our policies, guidelines, and essays before getting involved like this. Chris Troutman (talk) 20:59, 13 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
I will leave this alone. I should just point out that a) your links search for "Pedro Pedrosa Mendes" but I only use "Pedro Mendes" when I sign my publications (see [1]); b) I am the creator of COPASI as can be judged by the copyright notice on all its source code pages (eg [2]).
