==I found an article about someone I know and there is wrong information in it, what do I do?==
*[[User:Trevj|Trevj's reply]]:
*There is a complete policy on [[Wikipedia:biographies of living persons|biographies of living persons]], with potentially defamatory material subject to [[WP:BLPREMOVE|immediate removal]]. In the case of inaccuracies, and where the article's subject is known personally to you, either:
*#discuss the information on the article's talk page, stating what's incorrect and how you know this to be the case (also clearly declare your [[WP:conflict of interest|conflict of interest]]); or
*#correct the information yourself, again being sure to clearly declare your conflict of interest on the talk page and/or in the Edit summary depending on the nature of the information/presence of references.
**If in doubt, default to ''not'' performing the edit yourself (with an exception in the case of potentially defamatory material).
==I've been assigned to work on my employer's article. Is that all right?==
