Hello R radeva. The nature of your edits 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:R radeva. The template {{Paid}} can be used for this purpose – e.g. in the form: {{paid|user=R radeva|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. 331dot (talk) 09:11, 18 August 2023 (UTC)

Hello 331dot, I do not have a financial stake whatsoever in promoting this topic, I am also not going to be receiving any compensation directly/indirectly for the creation of this page, neither financial, nor goods, or services (as I read in the mandatory paid editing disclosure requirements you have linked up). I am however an intern at the company - so I do fall in the scope of employee - however I am completely unpaid. Please let me know what to do in this case. Thank you.

As specifically noted at WP:PAID, unpaid interns count as "paid editors" because an unpaid intern is being compensated with the experience of the work that they will then put on a resume to get a paying job in the future. You are required to make the paid editing disclosure. You should also read conflict of interest and when your boss tells you to edit Wikipedia. 331dot (talk) 09:38, 18 August 2023 (UTC)

Okay thank you! I have made the necessary changes. R radeva (talk) 09:42, 18 August 2023 (UTC)

Thank you. 331dot (talk) 09:43, 18 August 2023 (UTC)

Logo image

I notice your organization logo in your draft and I would ask you if your organization truly wants to release its logo under the Creative Commons license as indicated- this means that anyone can use the logo for any purpose, including commercial, as long as attribution is provided. For example, someone could print the logo onto clothing and sell it and your organization would not be entitled to any money from the sale of its own logo. I see that you didn't upload the image, but I was wondering this. 331dot (talk) 09:51, 18 August 2023 (UTC)

Hello again, yes I just spoke with my organization and they are okay with releasing the logo. Thank you R radeva (talk) 10:14, 18 August 2023 (UTC)
