COI editing

Hi there. I’m having some issues engaging with an article and saw that you have a lot of experience writing in the legal space so I was hoping you could provide some insight. The article in question belongs to W. Mark Lanier. I’m a COI editor and Mark is a client (both facts have been previously disclosed). If you take a look at the article’s revision history, you’ll see that several edits made in Oct. of last year (requested by me and made by editor Spintendo) were taken out. As I had a clear COI, I wanted to make sure any edits to the page were made by an experienced editor who could vet and approve them. A short time afterward, editor Smartse removed several of the changes and explained his reasoning in the article’s talk page in the section titled COI.

He claimed there was information about Lanier that was being misrepresented, although I’m not entirely sure what he’s referring to. Again, all the of the edits I had suggested were sourced and approved by another editor. Smartse also claimed there was information that might appear damaging to Lanier being left out of the article. This was confusing because it seemed he was saying that extra effort needed to be made to find unfavorable information on a topic, should it exist. My purpose in writing you today is to get the opinion of an experienced and valued member of the editor community. And someone who, until now, hasn’t been involved in this process. Thanks for any help or guidance you can provide. WriteJames (talk) 20:37, 6 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]
