Welcome!
[edit]Hello, PeetersPublishers, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions.
I noticed that one of the first articles you edited was Peeters (publishing company), which appears to be dealing with a topic with which you may have a conflict of interest. In other words, you may find it difficult to write about that topic in a neutral and objective way, because you are, work for, or represent, the subject of that article. Your recent contributions may have already been undone for this very reason.
To reduce the chances of your contributions being undone, you might like to draft your revised article before submission, and then ask me or another editor to proofread it. See our help page on userspace drafts for more details. If the page you created has already been deleted from Wikipedia, but you want to save the content from it to use for that draft, don't hesitate to ask anyone from this list and they will copy it to your user page.
One rule we do have in connection with conflicts of interest is that accounts used by more than one person will unfortunately be blocked from editing. Wikipedia generally does not allow editors to have usernames which imply that the account belongs to a company or corporation. If you have a username like this, you should request a change of username or create a new account. (A name that identifies the user as an individual within a given organization may be OK.)
In addition, if you receive, or expect to receive, compensation for any contribution you make, you must disclose your employer, client, and affiliation to comply with our terms of use and our policy on paid editing.

I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Please sign your messages on talk pages using four tildes (~~~~); this will automatically insert your username and the date. If you need help, check out Wikipedia:Questions, ask me on my talk page, or ask your question on this page and then place {{Help me}}
before the question. Again, welcome! — Jeff G. ツ 13:27, 10 April 2020 (UTC)

Hello PeetersPublishers. The nature of your edits, such as the one you made to Peeters (publishing company), 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 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:PeetersPublishers. The template {{Paid}} can be used for this purpose – e.g. in the form: {{paid|user=PeetersPublishers|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. — Jeff G. ツ 13:28, 10 April 2020 (UTC)
Hi! I'm sorry I'm new to Wikipedia and find everything still al little bit confusing... Is this how you answer a page. Anyway, I'm not getting paid to write the article. I'm a family friend and I thought it was a pity that the wiki of the family buisniss was not telling anything about the work they do... I tried changing my username, but I don't know if I did that right. My apologies for all the confusion.PeetersPublishers (talk) 14:07, 10 April 2020 (UTC)
Your conflict of interest
[edit]Hi PeetersPublishers,
I assume that you have requested an account rename, and am thus not blocking the account. However, you must not use Wikipedia for promotion, and you should not continue editing the article directly. You can request changes by clicking "Talk" above the article, then clicking the link "request corrections on or suggest content" in the orange warning box.
If you continue to make promotional edits to the article directly, you will be blocked from editing to prevent further disruption.
Please read the standardized advice below.
Best regards,

Managing a conflict of interest
[edit] Hello, PeetersPublishers. 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 organizations for more information. We ask that you:
- avoid editing or creating articles about yourself, your family, friends, colleagues, company, organization or competitors;
- propose changes on the talk pages of affected articles (you can use the {{request edit}} template);
- 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 WP:Spam);
- 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. ~ ToBeFree (talk) 14:34, 10 April 2020 (UTC)
Apologies! Can you please tell me where I can see if my username was changed? It's my first time editing something on Wikipedia and I really just wanted to add (what I think) is valuable information. PeetersPublishers (talk) 14:56, 10 April 2020 (UTC)
- It doesn't appear that you submitted a request to change your username. You can do so here: Wikipedia:Changing username/Simple. --Drm310 🍁 (talk) 16:46, 10 April 2020 (UTC)

If you intend to make useful contributions other than promoting your business or organisation, you may request an unblock. To do so, post the text {{unblock-spamun|Your proposed new username|Your reason here}}
at the bottom of your talk page. Replace the text "Your proposed new username" with a new username you are willing to use. See Special:CentralAuth to search for available usernames. Your new username will need to meet our username policy. Replace the text "Your reason here" with your reason to be unblocked. In that reason, you must:
- Convince us that you understand the reason for your block and that you will not repeat the kind of edits for which you were blocked.
- Describe in general terms the contributions that you intend to make if you are unblocked.
{{unblock|Your reason here}}
at the bottom of your talk page, replace the text "Your reason here" with your reason for thinking that the block was an error, and publish the page. Cabayi (talk) 10:07, 11 April 2020 (UTC)
