Conflict of Interest   Pmshef This is an attempt to resolve the concerns that relate to your conduct on Wikipedia and the editing of articles that you are personally involved in     As you know the official policy of Wikipedia according to WPNOT is that Wikipedia is not a soapbox and that editors should avoid contributing to articles that they are personally involved in That doesnt mean that your edits have not been neutral rather it means that any editing at all of Vaughan Councilrelated articles is inappropriate no matter what is written   Here is the fulltext from WPNOT   Wikipedia is not a soapbox Wikipedia is not a soapbox or a vehicle for propaganda and advertising Therefore Wikipedia articles are not Propaganda or advocacy of any kind Of course an article can report objectively about such things as long as an attempt is made to approach a neutral point of view You might wish to go to Usenet or start a blog if you want to convince people of the merits of your favorite views You can also use Wikinfo which promotes a sympathetic point of view for every article Selfpromotion The arbitration committee ruled on February   that Editors should avoid contributing to articles about themselves or subjects in which they are personally involved as it is difficult to maintain NPOV while doing so  Creating overly abundant links and references to autobiographical articles or to articles in which you have a personal stake is similarly unacceptable See WikipediaAutobiography and WikipediaNotability Advertising Articles about companies and products are fine if they are written in an objective and unbiased style Furthermore all article topics must be thirdparty verifiable so articles about very small garage companies are not likely to be acceptable External links to commercial organizations are acceptable if they can serve to identify major corporations associated with a topic see finishing school for an example Please note Wikipedia does not endorse any businesses and it does not set up affiliate programs See also WPCORP for a proposal on corporate notability   I understand that youve written to a user that you will not be involved anymore in Vaughanrelated articles Thats a commendable position Im sure there are many subjects and articles of interest to you on Wikipedia that do not relate to your father or his opponents Do I understand your position correctly And is this approach of abstention one that you permanently take If so I again commend that position I trust as Im sure you do that the administrators and the contributors to Wikipedia will maintain quality articles about worthy and reputable subjects
