:[[File:Red information icon with gradient background.svg|20px|link=|alt=]] '''Not done:'''<!-- Template:ETp --> These aren't edit requests. [[User:Cabayi|Cabayi]] ([[User talk:Cabayi|talk]]) 16:47, 20 September 2019 (UTC)
== Over-reach ==
[[WP:COIEDIT]] says (emboldening in original):
:you are '''strongly discouraged''' from editing affected articles directly
so why does {{tl|uw-coi}} say:
:We ask that you:
:*'''avoid editing or creating''' articles about yourself, your family, friends, company, organization or competitors
Surely the template's wording should more clearly reflect the former? <span class="vcard"><span class="fn">[[User:Pigsonthewing|Andy Mabbett]]</span> (<span class="nickname">Pigsonthewing</span>); [[User talk:Pigsonthewing|Talk to Andy]]; [[Special:Contributions/Pigsonthewing|Andy's edits]]</span> 22:48, 21 September 2019 (UTC)
:{{u|Pigsonthewing}}, eh, I'd consider "strongly discouraged" to be pretty close to "we ask that you not," but if you think worth changing, what new wording would you suggest? <sup><small>[[User:Creffpublic|creffpublic]]</small></sup> <sub style="margin-left:-8ex"><small>a [[User:Creffett|creffett]] franchise</small></sub> ([[User_talk:Creffett|talk to the boss]]) 15:55, 23 September 2019 (UTC)
