Paid editing

Hello Benmil. 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:Benmil. The template {{Paid}} can be used for this purpose – e.g. in the form: {{paid|user=Benmil|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. Theroadislong (talk) 16:17, 16 June 2023 (UTC)

Good morning, I'm sorry I'm only replying now, but it's a bit of a busy time for me: I confirm that I receive no remuneration or benefits in any capacity from Crèdit Des Alpes. I found the name of the bank in a Wikipedia article, https://wiki.riteme.site/wiki/Vivendi, and, noting that

1. there was no article on the aforementioned;

2. seeing from their official website that they have been the author of important transactions;

3. I noticed similar realities with the corresponding wikipedia page.

I thought it would be a good contribution to Wikipedia and the community to do some research and construct a proper article with all the sources I had found.

Finally, I contacted Crèdit Des Alpes directly informing them that I was creating a page dedicated to them, asking them to clarify some aspects of their history that I could not find online.

Crèdit Des Alpes kindly provided me with the missing pieces and indicated the sources to show the evidence.

I have had no other dealings with the bank.

Please let me know if I can continue with the publication or if I have to purge the article of the information directly reported by Crèdit Des Alpes.

Thank you
