Hello, STORMGALEISME. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about on Wikipedia, 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 Request Wizard), including links or details of reliable sources that support your suggestions;
• disclose your conflict of interest when discussing affected articles (see Wikipedia:Conflict of interest § How to disclose a COI);
• avoid linking to your organization's website in other articles (see Wikipedia:Spam § External link spamming);
• do your best to comply with Wikipedia'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 Wikipedia:Paid-contribution disclosure.

Also, editing for the purpose of advertising, publicizing, or promoting anyone or anything is not permitted. Thank you. VViking_TalkEdits 23:43, 3 February 2026 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, VViking. I am doing nothing but offering a reference from Billboard Magazine about my relation to my maternal grandfather, Eric Jerome Gale. You never include my mother, Gretchen Gale Merriweather [Eric's firstborn child], or his deceased first wife, Jean C. Gale (Eric's first wife, Gretchen Gale Merriweather's mother, and my maternal grandmother). I find this to be EXTREMELY offensive and misleading. My name is Mrs. Gabrielle Storm Gale Jackson (legal married name), born as and formerly Gabrielle Elena Gale-Prendatt, Gabrielle Storm Gale (1st name change), and Gabrielle Gale Prendatt-Carter (2nd name change), and I am Eric Jerome Gale's firstborn grandchild, as mentioned in his obituary article in the New York Times.
