Hello,

Thanks for contributing to Wikipedia. We welcome all editors who follow our rules. It appears that you might be breaking one of our most important rules - that paid editors must disclose their paid status when they edit. Please read WP:Paid and WP:COI. Some of the evidence is in the edit summary here. You also have a WP:Single purpose account.

Please do correct me if I have misinterpreted this evidence. If you are a paid editor, all you need to do is state on your user page User:Sarah Jonson that you are a paid editor, who your employer is, who your client is (they may be the same in this case), who your affiliations are in regard to these edits, and where you made the paid edits. An affiliation might be somebody who supplied the text, somebody who guided you through the editing process, or similar.

I've also noticed a similar question on your French-language user talk page. You should probably also make a similar paid editing declaration there and on all language versions where you have edited Wikipedia.

I'll likely make a report at WP:COI on this case, but will give you a direct link to the appropriate section when I do.

Sincerely,

Hello Sarah Jonson. Your edits look as if you are being paid. Paid promotion is an especially egregious type of conflict of interest (COI)
Paid articles should be submitted through the articles for creation process. If you are receiving or expect to receive money for your edits, you are required by the Wikimedia Terms of Use to disclose your employer, client and affiliation. You can post the disclosure on your user page at User:Sarah Jonson. The template {{Paid}} can be used for this purpose – e.g. in the form: {{paid|user=Sarah Jonson|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. If you are being paid, please provide the required disclosure. In either case, please do not edit further until you answer this message.


Dear Smallbones, My name is Sarah Jonson and I do work for Givaudan. I'd like to update the Givaudan Wikipedia page to make it more accurate. Best regards, (Sarah Jonson (talk) 12:42, 7 March 2018 (UTC))Reply

You must use the talk page of your company's article to request edits. You are not generally allowed to make direct edits to articles.Lostinspacetime1949 (talk) 13:03, 15 May 2019 (UTC)Reply
