  Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. Your user page may not meet Wikipedia's user page guidelines. It is intended for basic information about yourself, your interests and goals as they relate to editing Wikipedia, as well as disclosures of conflicts of interest and paid editing. Although a lot of freedom is allowed in personalizing your user page, it is not:

The user page guidelines have additional information on what is and what is not considered acceptable content. Please use your user sandbox or the draft article space to practice editing or to create new articles. Thank you. — rsjaffe 🗣️ 15:37, 2 June 2024 (UTC)Reply

 

Hello Richielemay29. The nature of your edits, such as the one you made to Draft:CLNS Media, 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 employed (or being compensated in any way) by a person, group, company or organization to promote their interests. Paid advocacy on Wikipedia must be disclosed even if you have not specifically been asked to edit Wikipedia. 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 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 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:Richielemay29. The template {{Paid}} can be used for this purpose – e.g. in the form: {{paid|user=Richielemay29|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. Belbury (talk) 16:01, 28 June 2024 (UTC)Reply

Yes, I do work for the company. I was unaware I wasn't supposed to make the draft in my User Page. The draft has been moved and I will continue to work on it from the draft articles page and request a review when I have completed, Thank you Richielemay29 (talk) 16:32, 28 June 2024 (UTC)Reply
Thanks for clarifying. Take a look at WP:COIPAYDISCLOSE for guidance on how to make sure that other Wikipedia editors understand the nature of your presence here. Belbury (talk) 16:39, 28 June 2024 (UTC)Reply
I put the paid template on your user page, since you disclosed here that you are employed by CLNS Media. ~Anachronist (talk) 17:31, 28 June 2024 (UTC)Reply

Your article is draftified

edit

You article has been moved to Draft:CLNS Media. Continue to work on it there, and submit for review when you're done. Don't try to publish this is article space yourself if you have any association with that company.

I have also deleted your user page because it redirected to a now-nonexistent article. See Wikipedia:User pages to learn the appropriate uses of your user page.

Also, you need to explain why you created two user accounts. User:Richielemay appears to be another account of yours. If you intend to abandon one, please say which one. You can have only one account. ~Anachronist (talk) 16:06, 28 June 2024 (UTC)Reply

I just saw you write on Wikipedia:Teahouse that you want to abandon User:Richielemay. To abandon it, simply don't log into it anymore, and use one account exclusively from now on. ~Anachronist (talk) 16:21, 28 June 2024 (UTC)Reply
Ok, I won't log into that one anymore, Will only use this account, thank you Richielemay29 (talk) 16:23, 28 June 2024 (UTC)Reply
