Hello, Mamasaurus34, welcome to Wikipedia and thank you for your contributions. Your editing pattern indicates that you may be using multiple accounts or coordinating editing with people outside Wikipedia, such as Naomicreative (talk · contribs). Our policy on multiple accounts usually does not allow this, and users who misuse multiple accounts may be blocked from editing. If you operate multiple accounts directly or with the help of another person, please disclose these connections. Thank you. Liz ^{Read! Talk!} 06:49, 5 January 2024 (UTC)

Hello Mamasaurus34. The nature of your edits, such as the one you made to User talk:GoingBatty, 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 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:Mamasaurus34. The template {{Paid}} can be used for this purpose – e.g. in the form: {{paid|user=Mamasaurus34|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. 331dot (talk) 14:53, 6 January 2024 (UTC)

Hi and thanks so much for this feedback. I have read the wiki guidelines on the notability of people and I'm a confused now as to why the article John Cameron was rejected, particularly since I picked a TV presenter to write about who has presented on three BBC daytime TV shows. I would have thought this easily qualified? as per the guidelines below:

Entertainers

This guideline applies to actors, voice actors, comedians, opinion makers, pornographic actors, models, and celebrities. Such a person may be considered notable if:

1. The person has had significant roles in multiple notable films, television shows, stage performances, or other productions; or
2. The person has made unique, prolific or innovative contributions to a field of entertainment.

Or is it the citations I have used?

Thank you in advance for your feedback. Mamasaurus34 (talk) 11:29, 11 January 2024 (UTC)
