Hello, I'm Ae245. I wanted to let you know that one of your recent contributions—specifically this edit to Bearing (mechanical)—has been undone because it appeared to be promotional. Advertising and using Wikipedia as a "soapbox" are against Wikipedia policy and not permitted; Wikipedia articles should be written objectively, using independent sources, and from a neutral perspective. Please take a look at the welcome page to learn more about Wikipedia. If you have any questions, you can ask for assistance at the Help desk. Thank you. Ae245 (talk) 09:55, 12 July 2024 (UTC)

Dear Ae245,

Thank you for your message and for bringing this to our attention. We understand and respect Wikipedia's policies regarding neutrality and avoiding promotional content.

Our intent with the edit to the Bearing (mechanical) article was to provide accurate, informative, and relevant content that would enhance the article's value to readers. As a company with deep expertise in the bearing industry, we believed we could offer unique insights that would benefit the Wikipedia community.

We understand that our contributions may have inadvertently crossed the line into promotional territory. We assure you that this was not our intention. We are committed to adhering to Wikipedia's guidelines and will be more mindful of potential conflicts of interest in the future.

We appreciate your feedback and are open to suggestions on how to improve our contributions to align with Wikipedia's standards.

Sincerely,

Please do not add inappropriate external links to Wikipedia, as you did to Bearing (mechanical). Wikipedia is not a collection of links, nor should it be used for advertising or promotion. Inappropriate links include, but are not limited to, links to personal websites, links to websites with which you are affiliated (whether as a link in article text, or a citation in an article), and links that attract visitors to a website or promote a product. See the external links guideline and spam guideline for further explanations. Because Wikipedia uses the nofollow attribute value, its external links are disregarded by most search engines. If you feel the link should be added to the page, please discuss it on the associated talk page rather than re-adding it. Thank you. Belbury (talk) 13:59, 29 July 2024 (UTC)

Dear Belbury,

Thank you for your message and for bringing this to our attention. We understand and respect Wikipedia's policies regarding external links. Our intention was not to promote our company or any specific product, but rather to provide valuable information to readers.

We apologize for any misunderstanding and appreciate you bringing this to our attention. We will carefully review our contributions in light of Wikipedia's guidelines and avoid adding any inappropriate external links in the future.

Thank you for your understanding and cooperation.

Sincerely,

AI-generated text

Hello, I'm Belbury. An edit that you recently made to Bearing (mechanical) seemed to be generated using a large language model (an "AI chatbot" or another application using such technology). Text produced by these applications can be unsuitable for an encyclopedia, and output must be carefully checked. I have reverted your edit. If you want to practice editing, please use your sandbox. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks. Belbury (talk) 13:58, 29 July 2024 (UTC)

Dear Belbury,

Thank you for your message and for bringing this to our attention. We understand your concern about the use of AI-generated content on Wikipedia. We agree that it is important to ensure that all content is accurate, verifiable, and unbiased.

We would like to clarify that we are not entirely using AI to generate content for Wikipedia. We are using AI as a tool to assist us in our research and writing. We believe that AI can be a valuable tool for improving the quality of Wikipedia articles.

In the case of the Bearing (mechanical) article, we believe that the information we added is valuable and relevant to the topic. The article previously contained some inaccurate and outdated information, and we believe that our edits have helped to improve the quality of the article.

We are committed to working with the Wikipedia community to ensure that all of our edits are of the highest quality. We are happy to provide any additional information that you may need to verify the accuracy of our edits. Also, we ourselves take pride in being the leading bearings distributors of Northern India with 20+ years of real-time experience in bearings industry.

We've seen enough real-life use-cases on a daily-basis to know what is relevant information and what's not.

Thank you for your understanding.

Sincerely,

Most editors would prefer that you talk to them directly, without using an AI. We want to hear from you, not an AI. It is not expected that talk page communications be grammatically and stylistically perfect. 331dot (talk) 09:21, 31 July 2024 (UTC)

Dear 331dot,

I assure you not everything is AI-generated. Some things are just properly put out, so it creates a proper understanding. Dhrriti Jain (talk) 09:31, 31 July 2024 (UTC)

You also seem to have a conflict of interest with regards to bearings. If you are employed by a manufacturer of bearings, the Terms of Use require you to make a formal paid editing disclosure. 331dot (talk) 09:23, 31 July 2024 (UTC)

I have declared my associations on my user page as mentioned on paid editing disclosure.

Thank you for the guidance. Dhrriti Jain (talk) 09:42, 31 July 2024 (UTC)

Thanks. I would suggest seeing WP:AI. The use of AI here in terms of article editing is a grey area right now without much community consensus. There may also be copyright issues. 331dot (talk) 13:15, 31 July 2024 (UTC)

I guess as long its relevant, value-adding, written & edited properly and isn't plagiarized, its good-to-go? 182.68.30.189 (talk) 09:05, 1 August 2024 (UTC)

Remember to log in when you post. Possibly, but great care must be taken. You may also wish to see WP:LLM; under copyright violations there it states "An LLM can generate copyright-violating material. Generated text may include verbatim snippets from non-free content or be a derivative work. In addition, using LLMs to summarize copyrighted content (like news articles) may produce excessively close paraphrases. The copyright status of LLMs trained on copyrighted material is not yet fully understood. Their output may not be compatible with the CC BY-SA license and the GNU license used for text published on Wikipedia." 331dot (talk) 09:15, 1 August 2024 (UTC)
