Chris Adamson (para athlete) - Possible Conflict of Interest
[edit]Hi @Dperez2,
It appears that you may likely have a close connection/relationship with Chris Adamson (para athlete), I therefore had to move the page to draft as per policy (until COI is verified). Do you have any close relationship with the subject? Uncle Bash007 (talk) 06:41, 24 September 2025 (UTC)
- I am the USA Track and Field San Diego Para Athletics Chairman, I am trying to update profiles for all the athletes I know with correct information about current info. Chris does not have a profile and is an American Record holder. I do coach him but I stick to the facts everything listed can be confirmed with links and proof. If there is a COI how do I get an article wiki created of him? Should I not make updates on any of the athletes I know? Dperez2 (talk) 16:36, 24 September 2025 (UTC)
