Hi GreetingsfromAnastasija, please take some time to read Wikipedia's reliable source guideline. Trip Advisor and the like are not consider reliable as their content is either user generated, sponsored, etc. Generally, in order for a source to be reliable it should have editorial oversight, a history of fact checking, etc. If you have questions or need help, you can ask at the Teahouse.

Alright. Thank you for sharing.GreetingsfromAnastasija (talk) 09:16, 22 December 2020 (UTC)
January 2021[edit]
Hello GreetingsfromAnastasija. The nature of your edits, such as the one you made to Draft:Shoppers Confidential, 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:GreetingsfromAnastasija. The template {{Paid}} can be used for this purpose – e.g. in the form: {{paid|user=GreetingsfromAnastasija|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. SK2242 (talk) 15:53, 6 January 2021 (UTC)
Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions; however, please remember the essential rule of respecting copyrights.

- Thanks or sharing your insight. I created the draft voluntarily and glad to see the improvements made by fellow Wikipedians.GreetingsfromAnastasija (talk) 12:30, 26 January 2021 (UTC)
As previously advised, your edits give the impression you have a financial stake in promoting a topic, but you have not complied with Wikipedia's mandatory paid editing disclosure requirements. You were asked to cease editing until you responded by either stating that you are not being directly or indirectly compensated for your edits, or by complying with the mandatory requirements under the Wikimedia Terms of Use that you disclose your employer, client and affiliation. Again, you can post such a disclosure on your user page at User:GreetingsfromAnastasija, and the template {{Paid}} can be used for this purpose – e.g. in the form: {{paid|user=GreetingsfromAnastasija|employer=InsertName|client=InsertName}}. Please respond before making any other edits to Wikipedia. SK2242 (talk) 03:30, 31 January 2021 (UTC)
- I'm writing to clear the misunderstanding. I have no personal or financial stake. Now and than I try to make some sound contribution by adding a draft or article. And as you see, I appreciate when my work is edited or improved and I'm fine if an article gets deleted. Wikipedia is a huge platform and every now and then types and formats of articles keep varying so criteras can change or differ. for which I am ok. Doing it because I find something that looks like it belongs to the giant encyclopedia, I upload it.

Gulf Central Merchant Bank Ltd (GCM) moved to draftspace[edit]
An article you recently created, Gulf Central Merchant Bank Ltd (GCM), is not suitable 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.

You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.
A tag has been placed on Draft:Gulf Central Merchant Bank Ltd (GCM), requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page seems to be unambiguous advertising which only promotes a company, group, product, service, person, or point of view and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become encyclopedic. Please read the guidelines on spam and Wikipedia:FAQ/Organizations for more information.
If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.
