Edit request

I saw your request at Talk:Data breach. I removed your post to WT:GAN because the request was not germane to GAN per NOTAFORUM but I'm looking into this. Chris Troutman (talk) 19:41, 25 March 2024 (UTC)

...and this is a lot of content to sort. Some of this preexisting content is going to need to be moved to the list of breaches. I should have this done in the next hour or two. Chris Troutman (talk) 19:54, 25 March 2024 (UTC)

Your COI edit requests

Hi there. Continuing the conversation I started on your edit requests in Talk:Operating system. It sounds like you are a Wikipedian In Residence (WIR) right? You do not need to submit an edit request for all your edits simply because you are WP:PAID. You are required to disclose your employer, which you have already done. Additionally, you should submit edit requests (or avoid entirely) articles that you have a specific conflict of interest to (like those of your employer), or articles that your employer has specifically asked you to change for advertising or promotion. Other than that, you can just make the edits directly. Now, you are a much more experienced editor than me so please let me know if I'm wrong about anything. If you do disagree, I'd be very interested to get a third opinion in WP:COI/N because you submitting an Edit request for all of your edits is crazy to me. Your edit requests look to be good improvements to the article and you shouldn't be waiting for 2 months for someone to review them. Assuming you agree, then please close your edit requests as answered that you created for this reason.

On a separate but related matter, I see you have declared a personal connection to the authors of Anderson & Dahlin. I do not think you need to submit edit requests for your changes to Talk:Operating system that reference this book. Since you are presumably not receiving a cut of the profits from the book, it is already very debatable whether you have a COI at all. Even if you did, this text book is widely used in university for operating systems. Mokadoshi (talk) 22:44, 9 April 2024 (UTC)

Yes, I think you are correct that it may be overkill. (t · c) buidhe 22:47, 9 April 2024 (UTC)

The community is very sensitive to COI and paid editing right now. There's an arbcom case about it, and a big thread at ANI where a WiR may get topic banned. Before deviating from the COI edit request procedures, maybe ask a noticeboard just to be sure. –Novem Linguae (talk) 23:40, 9 April 2024 (UTC)

What do you mean about deviating from the COI edit request procedures? It sounds like you're saying my suggestion runs contrary to current policy but they don't say that a WIR has to submit an edit request for 100% of their article edits. I understand the current discussions in the community about this, and agree that caution should be taken. At the same time, we shouldn't be arguing that WIRs aren't allowed to make any edits to any articles unless it goes through an edit request first. Buidhe has written multiple large edit requests (some rewriting entire sections of articles), and I commend the disclosure, but no one has time to review those, and the article is worse off if these have to sit for months for someone to review it. If I'm wrong, I'd be happy for you to tell me and I'd be interested to read more about this. I also agree about the noticeboard being a middle ground option as I said above. Mokadoshi (talk) 00:03, 10 April 2024 (UTC)

I'm just saying that because the issue is so sensitive, it might be wise to get a noticeboard to sign off on it. A misjudgment here could create major headaches for a COI/PAID editor later, for example at WP:RFA. –Novem Linguae (talk) 00:12, 10 April 2024 (UTC)
