I have no idea what you mean by "conforming to". The word "conform" makes no sense in this context.

I have just given few ideas which can be wrong.We can find better synonyms.

When I was new on this wiki I loved triva section.According to was interesting to know who said that but 'according to' was also irritating so I came to the idea of synonyms.
