Hello Aproudlock2010. The nature of your edits gives the impression you have an undisclosed financial stake in promoting a topic, such as the edit you made to Draft:Alexander Proudlock draft 1, 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 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:Aproudlock2010. The template {{Paid}} can be used for this purpose – e.g. in the form: {{paid|user=Aproudlock2010|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. --Worldbruce (talk) 00:06, 10 July 2019 (UTC)
Hello
[edit]Sorry, that was a mistake. Under the three options I’m neither for making the article, I’m a family member of the ‘Alexander Proudlock’. Is it possible to change this? Aproudlock2010 (talk) 07:18, 10 July 2019 (UTC)
Hello again, how may I change this. Full disclosure, I am not being paid for providing this information nor am I receiving beneficiary for composing this article.
How can I make an article page, for the profile? Aproudlock2010 (talk) 12:48, 10 July 2019 (UTC)
Alexander Proudlock moved to draftspace
[edit]An article you recently created, Alexander Proudlock, does not have enough sources and citations as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. (?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of "Draft:
" before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page. * As you have declared a conflict of interest as a family member, you must submit the draft via the Articles for Creation process and not move it yourself to mainspace.
