  Hello, I'm Power~enwiki. I noticed that you recently removed content from Global Sources without adequately explaining why. In the future, it would be helpful to others if you described your changes to Wikipedia with an accurate edit summary. If this was a mistake, don't worry; the removed content has been restored. If you would like to experiment, 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. power~enwiki (π, ν) 04:22, 21 September 2020 (UTC)Reply

  Hello, I'm Power~enwiki. I noticed that you added or changed content in an article, Global Sources, but you didn't provide a reliable source. It's been removed and archived in the page history for now, but if you'd like to include a citation and re-add it, please do so. You can have a look at the tutorial on citing sources. If you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. power~enwiki (π, ν) 04:23, 21 September 2020 (UTC)Reply

 

Hello MemePR HK. The nature of your edits, such as the one you made to Global Sources, 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:MemePR HK. The template {{Paid}} can be used for this purpose – e.g. in the form: {{paid|user=MemePR HK|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. Jack Frost (talk) 12:27, 21 September 2020 (UTC)Reply

Hello Jack Frost. We are authorized by the client to edit their wiki page and already made the disclosure on the user page. Therefore, we would like to amend the page as soon as possible. Thank you. MemePR HK (talk) 06:06, 22 September 2020 (UTC)Reply
