Welcome
Hey, I see your name is BellviewMatt and that you seem to exclusively edit the Bellview Winery. Misplaced Pages tends to frown up on editors writing about themselves or subjects connected to them, and such conflicts of interest if not declared are usually grounds for being blocked from editing, so I advise you read up on the relevant conflict of interest policies:
- Misplaced Pages:Conflict of interest
- Misplaced Pages:COI declaration
- ##Misplaced Pages:Best practices for editors with close associations

obligatory conflict of interest template
Hello, BellviewMatt. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about on Misplaced Pages, you may have a conflict of interest (COI). Editors with a conflict of interest may be unduly influenced by their connection to the topic. See the conflict of interest guideline and FAQ for article subjects for more information. We ask that you:
- avoid editing or creating articles about yourself, your family, friends, colleagues, company, organization, clients, or competitors;
- propose changes on the talk pages of affected articles (you can use the {{edit COI}} template), including links or details of reliable sources that support your suggestions;
- disclose your conflict of interest when discussing affected articles (see Misplaced Pages:Conflict of interest § How to disclose a COI);
- avoid linking to your organization's website in other articles (see Misplaced Pages:Spam § External link spamming);
- do your best to comply with Misplaced Pages's content policies.
In addition, you are required by the Wikimedia Foundation's terms of use to 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 Misplaced Pages:Paid-contribution disclosure.
Also, editing for the purpose of advertising, publicizing, or promoting anyone or anything is not permitted. Thank you.
