Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute to the encyclopedia, one or more of the external links you added to the page Reverse engineering do not comply with our guidelines for external links and have been removed. Wikipedia is not a collection of links; nor should it be used as a platform for advertising or promotion, and doing so is contrary to the goals of this project. Because Wikipedia uses nofollow tags, external links do not alter search engine rankings. If you feel the link should be added to the article, please discuss it on the article's talk page before reinserting it. Please take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing constructively to this encyclopedia. Thank you. Apparition¹¹ ^Complaints/Mistakes 03:04, 7 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Hello Forensicsguru. 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:Forensicsguru. The template {{Paid}} can be used for this purpose – e.g. in the form: {{paid|user=Forensicsguru|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. GSS ^💬 21:08, 25 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, you are mistaken. This is not a paid for article creation case. I also did my best to comply with Wikipedia neutrality rules. Suggestions to improve are welcome.Forensicsguru (talk) 22:50, 26 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

No I'm not mistaken and you need to disclose your paid editing status as well as a link to your Upwork account. GSS ^💬 07:03, 28 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, you are mistaken. Correlation is not the same as causation. There is no such Upwork account to link to or declare as I am not a freelancer or consulting on Upwork (I do other things for living). FYI, I am someone affiliated with the company and created this page as the information was believed to be notable. This is a very simple page but I did review the article creation information and explored how is done correctly; yes, the company has hired on Upwork many consultants, especially developers, if that is why you think what you said (but that is wrong causation for what you actually inferred). Hope this answer makes it clear what I am and what I am not. Tried to be as forthcoming as possible. Forensicsguru (talk) 15:31, 28 March 2021 (UTC) Added a disclosure on affiliation to the user page. Forensicsguru (talk) 15:54, 28 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I have pretty clear evidence that you were hired to create this page on Upwork through this advert so, please don't try to fool me. I can't disclose much here as per WP:OUTING, but I will be sharing the details with some admins to review. GSS ^💬 16:57, 29 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

You do not have any evidence as what you claim is not true; and you need to stop this insinuation. Can you imagine for a moment that you are wrong? I am who I am saying I am. You have my absolute word for it, I swear by it, and what else can I say so that you believe me? Why would I lie here? As I said earlier you are correlating because we had/have lots of hiring on upwork for consultants but correlation and causation is not the same. Please stop harassing me and start acting in good faith, like someone senior on wikipedia. Have some faith. If you still do not believe me please put me in contact with someone senior at wikipedia, in the US preferably, who is neutral and I will talk to them on the phone, or communicate with them, to prove who I am. I am NOT a consultant on upwork and will take me 5 minutes to prove it. But, I will need you to apologize after that on this page. Let me know but please respond in a civil manner.Forensicsguru (talk) 19:40, 29 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I have shared the details with the concerned team and they will surely contact back to you regarding the same. GSS ^💬 02:45, 30 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I have disclosed the conflict of interest correctly and will handle this with them. They can contact me at support at bluerisc dot com to confirm my affiliation.Forensicsguru (talk) 12:10, 30 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
