Managing a conflict of interest

Hello, Prestontaswiki. 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 COI may be unduly influenced by their connection to the topic. Editing for the purpose of advertising or promotion is not permitted. 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 COI 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 for which you receive, or expect to receive, compensation (see WP:PAID). Thank you. Julietdeltalima (talk) 18:36, 10 November 2017 (UTC)

Your addition to Tanya Burr has been removed, as it appears to have added copyrighted material to Wikipedia without evidence of permission from the copyright holder. If you are the copyright holder, please read Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials for more information on uploading your material to Wikipedia. For legal reasons, Wikipedia cannot accept copyrighted material, including text or images from print publications or from other websites, without an appropriate and verifiable license. All such contributions will be deleted. You may use external websites or publications as a source of information, but not as a source of content, such as sentences or images—you must write using your own words. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing. Alexf^(talk) 13:43, 14 November 2017 (UTC)

Conflict-of-interest disclosure necessary

Hello, Prestontaswiki. The nature of your edits to Tanya Burr gives the impression you have an undisclosed financial stake in promoting a topic, 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:Prestontaswiki. The template {{Paid}} can be used for this purpose – e.g. in the form: {{paid|user=Prestontaswiki|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. - Julietdeltalima (talk) 21:47, 22 May 2018 (UTC)

Tanya Burr

Hi, this message is regarding edits you are making to Tanya Burr. Tanya rose to fame with her YouTube channel, and therefore is a career YouTuber. Her recent exploits in acting have been relatively non-notable, and her theatre debut has been met with much criticism. (https://www.timeout.com/london/theatre/confidence-review). This is because she is still seen as a YouTuber rather than an actress.

It is very misleading to remove 'YouTuber' from the introductory line in this article. We can consider having her down as 'a YouTuber and actress', but not solely an 'actress'. This is because acting is not where her notability arose from, and she is not 'known' as an actress, other than from the bad reviews of her latest play. Orphan Wiki 13:31, 2 June 2018 (UTC)
