Managing a conflict of interest

Hello, 99.74.19.118. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about on the page Blue Origin, 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 {{request edit}} 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. LilianaUwU ^{(talk / contributions)} 04:27, 8 March 2023 (UTC)

I DO NOT work for Blue Origin. I am at a public library now. 99.74.19.118 (talk) 04:09, 21 May 2023 (UTC)

You do not have to work for the company to have a conflict of interest. And it beggars belief that a public library IP has only been used by one user over the space of two-and-one-half months. Meters (talk) 04:16, 21 May 2023 (UTC)

I come to this library a lot and there's always people using the PC. Sometimes I can't get a spot its so busy. Señor Jakob (talk) 04:26, 21 May 2023 (UTC)

Sure. The terminal is so busy that sometimes you can't get a seat, but no-one from this IP has ever edited Wikipedia but you. And now you are using both a user account and this IP to edit. And your account was created shortly after the last batch of COI SPA socks were blocked... you wouldn't happen to be the same user yet again? Meters (talk) 04:33, 21 May 2023 (UTC)

No, I am not sure what you are referring to. I read that there was socking previously on this page and that was not right and I'm sorry that keeps happening for this page and on Wiki as a whole. I decided to create an account after editing wiki pages for a few years. I have been traveling the past few years never thought to make one until now.

Is there a way I can proof that I am not the person you are referring too? Señor Jakob (talk) 04:38, 21 May 2023 (UTC)

Please do not add or change content, as you did at Blue Origin, without citing a reliable source. Please review the guidelines at Wikipedia:Citing sources and take this opportunity to add references to the article. Thank you. Meters (talk) 03:27, 21 May 2023 (UTC)

And please address user:LilianaUwU's COI concerns. Meters (talk) 03:28, 21 May 2023 (UTC)

And I see form the thread on my talk page User talk:Meters#Comment that I also think you have a COI and should not be editing this article. Meters (talk) 03:31, 21 May 2023 (UTC)

Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to vandalize Wikipedia, as you did with this edit to Blue Origin, you may be blocked from editing. LJF2019 ^talk 04:14, 21 May 2023 (UTC)

Should I create an account to make changes to this page? 99.74.19.118 (talk) 04:17, 21 May 2023 (UTC)

It is nothing to do with whether you use an account or not. The edits you are making are original research and improperly sourced. You may not do that under any account. Grachester (talk) 04:19, 21 May 2023 (UTC)

I thought I used proper sources. Thank you for letting me know!

I see this space company won a contract on NASA TV. Many articles say that. Cant I use that as justification for adding the revenue by showing 2 articles that site the money? Señor Jakob (talk) 04:22, 21 May 2023 (UTC)

You didn't put the sources in the article. Just putting them in the edit summary is not good enough. Neither of the sources you gave said that Blue Origin's revenues were $4B. You adding up money from different sources is clear original research. And, those article talk about contracts. Contracts are not the same as annual revenue. The contracts may pay out over several years and not all of the contract value is revenue. This is exactly why you need a source saying what the revenue is and why we don't allow original research. Grachester (talk) 04:28, 21 May 2023 (UTC)

Thanks for letting me know. I'll get more experience and try better next time. Señor Jakob (talk) 04:31, 21 May 2023 (UTC)

If this is a shared IP address, and you did not make the edits referred to above, consider creating an account for yourself or logging in with an existing account so that you can avoid further irrelevant notices.
