Managing a conflict of interest
[edit]Hello, Powershell17. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about on Wikipedia, you may have a conflict of interest (COI). Editors with a conflict of interest may be unduly influenced by their connection to the topic. See the conflict of interest guideline and FAQ for article subjects for more information. We ask that you:
- avoid editing or creating articles about yourself, your family, friends, colleagues, company, organization, clients, or competitors;
- propose changes on the talk pages of affected articles (you can use the {{edit COI}} template)—don't forget to give details of reliable sources supporting your suggestions;
- disclose your conflict of interest when discussing affected articles (see Wikipedia:Conflict of interest § How to disclose a COI);
- avoid linking to your organization's website in other articles (see Wikipedia:Spam § External link spamming);
- do your best to comply with Wikipedia's content policies.
In addition, you are required by the Wikimedia Foundation's terms of use to disclose your employer, client, and affiliation with respect to any contribution which forms all or part of work for which you receive, or expect to receive, compensation. See Wikipedia:Paid-contribution disclosure.
Also, editing for the purpose of advertising, publicising, or promoting anyone or anything is not permitted. Thank you. Annh07 (talk) 10:09, 20 June 2024 (UTC)

[edit]Hello Powershell17. 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 employed (or being compensated in any way) by a person, group, company or organization to promote their interests. Paid advocacy on Wikipedia must be disclosed even if you have not specifically been asked to edit Wikipedia. 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 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 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:Powershell17. The template {{Paid}} can be used for this purpose – e.g. in the form: {{paid|user=Powershell17|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. Annh07 (talk) 10:10, 20 June 2024 (UTC)
- Hi Annh07, I am not getting paid for the same but i have seen the movie and I know them personally Powershell17 (talk) 12:56, 20 June 2024 (UTC)
- What should i do about the same Powershell17 (talk) 12:56, 20 June 2024 (UTC)
- I am a freelancer Powershell17 (talk) 13:04, 20 June 2024 (UTC)
- You have declared that you are an employee of Kumar Raj Productions:
I am an employee at Kumar Raj Productions, and I was asked to make these changes...
- So you have a strong conflict of interest when editing articles related to your company, specifically films produced by Kumar Raj Productions. Regardless of whether you were compensated specifically to edit Wikipedia, you are still a paid editor because you are an employee of Kumar Raj Productions. See Wikipedia:Paid-contribution disclosure#Additional notes on who must disclose.
- Please follow the instructions above to declare your conflict of interest.
- You should not directly edit articles where you have a conflict of interest, all edits must be through the article's talk page (use this template: Edit COI). Thank you. Annh07 (talk) 14:49, 20 June 2024 (UTC)
- @Annh07 I used the template and edited the data. Thanks for telling me how it is supposed to be done, and kindly let me know if any changes have to be made on Ameena (film) Powershell17 (talk) 16:44, 20 June 2024 (UTC)
- You must create an edit request on the article's talk page, not edit the article directly. Annh07 (talk) 16:45, 20 June 2024 (UTC)
- How do we do that?
- Should i post the edits i want there and wait? Powershell17 (talk) 16:50, 20 June 2024 (UTC)
- That's right. Please post the edits you want to make on the talk page, following the instructions here: Edit COI. Editors who do not have a conflict of interest will review and edit the article according to your request if it is appropriate. Annh07 (talk) 17:00, 20 June 2024 (UTC)
- thanks Powershell17 (talk) 17:02, 20 June 2024 (UTC)
- Can you check the Talk page of Talk:Ameena (film), and tell me if its fine Powershell17 (talk) 17:17, 20 June 2024 (UTC)
- I collapsed it because it was too long. You will receive feedback as other editors review it. This may take some time (days to weeks, sometimes longer) so please be patient (there are nearly 150 pending requests). During that time, you can add additional content and references to your request. Annh07 (talk) 18:34, 20 June 2024 (UTC)

Thanks for your contributions to Kumar Raj. Unfortunately, I do not think it is ready for publishing at this time because it has no sources and it needs more sources to establish notability. I have converted your article to a draft which you can improve, undisturbed for a while.
Please see more information at Help:Unreviewed new page. When the article is ready for publication, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page OR move the page back. BoyTheKingCanDance (talk) 16:56, 6 November 2024 (UTC)
