editHello Ayesha.r786. The nature of your edits, such as the one you made to Deccan Herald, 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 compensated by a person, group, company or organization to use Wikipedia to promote their interests. 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 very 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 extremely 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:Ayesha.r786. The template {{Paid}} can be used for this purpose – e.g. in the form: {{paid|user=Ayesha.r786|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. Thanks, Framawiki (please notify me when you reply) 11:15, 28 July 2023 (UTC)
- Hello,
- I am a free user and employed in Deccan Herald to make the presence of the website correct and upto date. Thus I have edited the fields. Please have a look and let me allow the editing. Ayesha.r786 (talk) 11:23, 28 July 2023 (UTC)
- This is not sufficient. See WP:COI. --Yamla (talk) 10:41, 31 July 2023 (UTC)
- Hello team,
- Can we connect anytime as per your availability to discuss it. I need to update the cover image of the WIkipedia page as soon as possible. As it is hindering my business overview with old image. Ayesha.r786 (talk) 10:43, 31 July 2023 (UTC)
- Can you please list down the details required from your end to make the suggested changes. Ayesha.r786 (talk) 10:44, 31 July 2023 (UTC)
- WP:COI explains how to properly disclose your conflict of interest. We are not interested in helping or hindering your business, this is an encyclopedia. In other words, your level of urgency isn't relevant here. --Yamla (talk) 11:26, 31 July 2023 (UTC)

. You have refused to declare your conflict of interest as per WP:COI, you appear only interested in Deccan Herald, and additionally, you keep on insisting you are sending emails when you clearly aren't, so WP:CIR also applies. --Yamla (talk) 11:38, 31 July 2023 (UTC)
