Managing a conflict of interest

edit

  Hello, Mercy kiai. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about on Wikipedia, you may have a conflict of interest (COI). Editors with a conflict of interest may be unduly influenced by their connection to the topic. See the conflict of interest guideline and FAQ for organizations for more information. We ask that you:

In addition, you are required by the Wikimedia Foundation's terms of use to disclose your employer, client, and affiliation with respect to any contribution which forms all or part of work for which you receive, or expect to receive, compensation. See Wikipedia:Paid-contribution disclosure.

Also, editing for the purpose of advertising, publicising, or promoting anyone or anything is not permitted. Thank you. bonadea contributions talk 17:22, 3 March 2023 (UTC)Reply

Hello Mercy kiai. The nature of your edits, such as the one you made to Dr Narayan Hulse, 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:Mercy kiai. The template {{Paid}} can be used for this purpose – e.g. in the form: {{paid|user=Mercy kiai|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. 2A01:4C8:47:ADC4:4C07:52FF:FE0F:2817 (talk) 04:56, 4 March 2023 (UTC)Reply

 

As previously advised, your edits, such as the edit you made to Dr Narayan Hulse, give the impression you have a financial stake in promoting a topic, but you have not complied with Wikipedia's mandatory paid editing disclosure requirements. You were asked to cease editing until you responded by either stating that you are not being directly or indirectly compensated for your edits, or by complying with the mandatory requirements under the Wikimedia Terms of Use that you disclose your employer, client and affiliation. Again, you can post such a disclosure on your user page at User:Mercy kiai, and the template {{Paid}} can be used for this purpose – e.g. in the form: {{paid|user=Mercy kiai|employer=InsertName|client=InsertName}}. Please respond before making any other edits to Wikipedia. 2A01:4C8:47:ADC4:4C07:52FF:FE0F:2817 (talk) 06:00, 4 March 2023 (UTC)Reply

Hello I have not be paid to make any promotion for the Dr. Narayan Mercy kiai (talk) 06:14, 4 March 2023 (UTC)Reply
Why do you create articles about him?
Where did you get the information you added here?
Whether you are being paid or not, you may not add promotional text to Wikipedia. --bonadea contributions talk 08:00, 4 March 2023 (UTC)Reply

  Please stop. If you continue to introduce inappropriate pages to Wikipedia, as you did at Dr Narayan Hulse, you may be blocked from editing. If you need guidance on how to create appropriate pages, try using the Article Wizard.

You may edit the draft at Draft:Narayan Hulse and submit it for review when you think it is ready, but do not move it and do not create any other article or draft about him. bonadea contributions talk 07:11, 4 March 2023 (UTC)Reply

Dr Narayan Hulse moved to draftspace

edit

An article you recently created, Dr Narayan Hulse, is not suitable as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. (?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of "Draft:" before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page.

The page User:Mercy kiai/sandbox has been speedily deleted from Wikipedia.

You may use external websites or other printed material as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. This part is crucial: say it in your own words. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.

If the external website or image belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text or image — which means allowing other people to use it for any reason — then you must verify that externally by one of the processes explained at Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials. The same holds if you are not the owner but have their permission. If you are not the owner and do not have permission, see Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission for how you may obtain it. You might want to look at Wikipedia's copyright policy for more details, or ask a question here.

Please do not recreate the material without addressing these concerns, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If you think this page should not have been deleted for this reason, you may contact the deleting administrator, or if you have already done so, you may open a discussion at Wikipedia:Deletion Review.
