{help me}} Hello,

I am trying to update the Oakwood School page but for some reason when searching the page, it redirects to the page 'Funtington'. When I keep changing it so it directs to the School page, it reverts back. Why is this? I am putting up correct information from the School website and surely directing to the school page and not the village page is better?

Any help, i will be very grateful.

Alex

You will want to read the information on creating your first article. You will want to create the article as a Draft so all the information is available to move directly into the page. As you are writing it now it is un-encyclopedic and promotional. Again please read the information provided to you in the Welcome Template. --VViking_TalkEdits 13:50, 2 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Managing a conflict of interest[edit]

Hello, Alexheath1994. 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 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. — CactusWriter ^(talk) 19:04, 21 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Please do not add promotional material to Wikipedia, as you did to Oakwood Preparatory School. While objective prose about beliefs, organisations, people, products or services is acceptable, Wikipedia is not intended to be a vehicle for soapboxing, advertising or promotion. Thank you.
