[edit]
Hello Hello124Hell0. The nature of your edits, such as the one you made to Draft:Hawkeye Pictures Inc., gives the impression you have an undisclosed financial stake in promoting a topic, but you have not complied with Wikipedia's mandatory paid editing disclosure requirements. Paid advocacy is a category of conflict of interest (COI) editing that involves being employed (or being compensated in any way) by a person, group, company or organization to promote their interests. Paid advocacy on Wikipedia must be disclosed even if you have not specifically been asked to edit Wikipedia. Undisclosed paid advocacy is prohibited by our policies on neutral point of view and what Wikipedia is not, and is an especially serious type of COI; the Wikimedia Foundation regards it as a "black hat" practice akin to black-hat search-engine optimization.
Paid advocates are strongly discouraged from direct article editing, and should instead propose changes on the talk page of the article in question if an article exists. If the article does not exist, paid advocates are strongly discouraged from attempting to write an article at all. At best, any proposed article creation should be submitted through the articles for creation process, rather than directly.
Regardless, if you are receiving or expect to receive compensation for your edits, broadly construed, you are required by the Wikimedia Terms of Use to disclose your employer, client and affiliation. You can post such a mandatory disclosure to your user page at User:Hello124Hell0. The template {{Paid}} can be used for this purpose – e.g. in the form: {{paid|user=Hello124Hell0|employer=InsertName|client=InsertName}}. If I am mistaken – you are not being directly or indirectly compensated for your edits – please state that in response to this message. Otherwise, please provide the required disclosure. In either case, do not edit further until you answer this message. DoubleGrazing (talk) 16:03, 12 November 2024 (UTC)
- Hi! Thanks for this message. I can confirm that I am not being compensated in any way (directly or indirectly) for my edits! Hello124Hell0 (talk) 09:22, 15 November 2024 (UTC)
- I see. Given that your entire edit history has to do with this business, there's presumably a reason for that. In your own words, what is your relationship with this subject? Thanks, -- DoubleGrazing (talk) 09:39, 15 November 2024 (UTC)
- I saw one of their films recently and really enjoyed it! It is just the first thing I thought of to edit. I just figured out how to see other suggested pages for editing so I just published my first edit which was adding secondary sources and missing citations to a page for a UK clothing brand!
