Please do not add commentary, your own point of view, or your own personal analysis to Wikipedia articles, as you did to Chartered Institute of Marketing. Doing so violates Wikipedia's neutral point of view policy and breaches the formal tone expected in an encyclopedia.

Hello, HeyDuggie. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about in the page Chartered Institute of Marketing, you may have a conflict of interest (COI). Editors with a COI 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 COI 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. It may help you to get a clearer understanding of relevant aspects of how Wikipedia works if you read the policy page Wikipedia:Ownership of content.

- Adding to JamesBWatson's welcome message above, please see the response I left to your message on my user talk page here (if you haven't read it already). It explains a few things to you and provides you links to relevant policies and guidelines that you should review and know about (including a link to Wikipedia's new user tutorial, which I highly recommend you go through and complete). Welcome to Wikipedia, and please don't hesitate to message me if you have any questions :-). Cheers - ~Oshwah~(talk) (contribs) 10:41, 18 October 2018 (UTC)
Help from Oshwah[edit]
I think that Oshwah's answer to you on his talk page, which he mentions above, does a more thorough job of explaining the relevant issues to you than the message I posted above, so I do recommend reading it. Here is a link which will take you directly to the relevant talk page section: [1]. The editor who uses the pseudonym "JamesBWatson" (talk) 14:09, 18 October 2018 (UTC)
