I made an edit to the Vipul Patel Wikipedia page this morning and noticed the following message at the top of the page: This article may have been created or edited in return for undisclosed payments, a violation of Wikipedia's terms of use. It may require cleanup to comply with Wikipedia's content policies. How do I go about correcting this issue? This page was not created or edited in return for any payment and I want to resolve this. Thank you, Globalrobotics (talk) 16:51, 19 February 2018 (UTC)
- To be quite frank - you can't. Your username also suggests that you, too, are involved intimately in this subject. Not only should any editor with a connection to the subject decalre a Conflict of Interest on their user page, or in the article's talk page, but you have another issue to deal with. You username breaches our policy on organisational names which suggests editing by more than one person. You will need to request a name change before you continue editing. I will leave a template below this post to assist you in that. Regards, Nick Moyes (talk) 21:45, 19 February 2018 (UTC)
