Managing a conflict of interest
editHello, PRO NCL. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about in the page Northern Coalfields, 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:
- avoid editing or creating articles about yourself, your family, friends, company, organization or competitors;
- propose changes on the talk pages of affected articles (see the {{request edit}} template);
- disclose your conflict of interest when discussing affected articles (see WP:DISCLOSE);
- avoid linking to your organization's website in other articles (see WP:SPAM);
- do your best to comply with Wikipedia's content policies.
In addition, you must 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 WP:PAID).
Also please note that editing for the purpose of advertising, publicising, or promoting anyone or anything is not permitted. Thank you. GermanJoe (talk) 19:29, 18 November 2018 (UTC)
Northern Coalfields - possible COI (unsourced and non-neutral content)
editHello PRO NCL, I have reverted your edits due to several reasons:
- If you have a connection to this company, please read WP:COI and WP:PAID, and clearly disclose such a conflict of interest as described in the linked pages. Paid editing without such a disclosure violates WMF's Terms of Use for this site.
- If you have a possible conflict of interest, please suggest changes on the article's talkpage Talk:Northern Coalfields instead of adding them yourself. On top of the talkpage is a messagebox with a convenient "request corrections" link to start such requests.
- Optional, but as you seem new to Wikipedia, I'd recommend to start with very small uncontroversial suggestions for fixes until you'll get more experienced with Wikipedia's editing guidelines and processes. Larger and more complex suggestions are more prone to errors and thus more likely to get rejected by reviewers.
- Please make sure to provide independent reliable sources for added or suggested content (see WP:RS and WP:REFB). For trivial uncontroversial info self-published sources do occasionally suffice, but most of the content should be based on independent reliable 3rd-party sources.
- Avoid non-neutral language and "PR speak", praising the topic with subjective puffery and WP:PEACOCK phrases. Aside from necessary reliable sources, maintaining a neutral uninvolved language is one of the core requirements for content - Wikipedia is no PR platform to present a topic from its own marketing-based point of view.
I hope these tips are helpful if you'd like to suggest changes on the article's talkpage. Please feel free to ask if you have any questions, or post at WP:Teahouse, a forum for new editors. Best regards. GermanJoe (talk) 19:45, 18 November 2018 (UTC)

Undisclosed paid editing?
editHello PRO NCL. The nature of your edits gives the impression you have an undisclosed financial stake in promoting a topic, such as the edit you made to Northern Coalfields, and that 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 egregious type of COI; the Wikimedia Foundation regards it as a "black hat" practice akin to Black hat SEO.
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, and if it does not, 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:PRO NCL. The template {{Paid}} can be used for this purpose – e.g. in the form: {{paid|user=PRO NCL|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, please do not edit further until you answer this message. Longhair\talk 09:26, 19 November 2018 (UTC)

editIf you intend to make useful contributions about some topic other than your business or organisation, you may request an unblock. To do so, post the text {{unblock-spamun|Your proposed new username|Your reason here}}
at the bottom of your talk page. Replace the text "Your proposed new username" with a new username you are willing to use. See Special:CentralAuth to search for available usernames. Your new username will need to meet our username policy. Replace the text "Your reason here" with your reason to be unblocked. In that reason, you must:
- Convince us that you understand the reason for your block and that you will not repeat the kind of edits for which you were blocked.
- Describe in general terms the contributions that you intend to make if you are unblocked.
{{unblock|Your reason here}}
at the bottom of your talk page, but you should read the guide to appealing blocks first. 331dot (talk) 09:45, 19 November 2018 (UTC)
