Hello, I'm Belbury. I noticed that you added or changed content in an article, Road signs in India, but you didn't provide a reliable source. It's been removed and archived in the page history for now, but if you'd like to include a citation and re-add it, please do so. You can have a look at referencing for beginners. If you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. Belbury (talk) 11:04, 30 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Using AI to write content

Hello, I'm Belbury. An edit that you recently made to Virtual influencer seemed to be generated using a large language model (an "AI chatbot" or another application using such technology). Text produced by these applications can be unsuitable for an encyclopedia, and output must be carefully checked. I have reverted your edit. If you want to practice editing, please use your sandbox. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks. Belbury (talk) 17:08, 3 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Please do not add inappropriate external links to Wikipedia. Wikipedia is not a collection of links, nor should it be used for advertising or promotion. Inappropriate links include, but are not limited to, links to personal websites, links to websites with which you are affiliated (whether as a link in article text, or a citation in an article), and links that attract visitors to a website or promote a product. See the external links guideline and spam guideline for further explanations. Because Wikipedia uses the nofollow attribute value, its external links are disregarded by most search engines. If you feel the link should be added to the page, please discuss it on the associated talk page rather than re-adding it. [1] MrOllie (talk) 19:37, 5 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, Sanskruti.vasu. We welcome your contributions, but it appears as if your primary purpose on Wikipedia is to add citations to sources you may be affiliated with.

Editing in this way is a violation of the policy against using Wikipedia for promotion and is a form of conflict of interest. The editing community considers excessive self-citing to be a form of spamming on Wikipedia (WP:REFSPAM); the edits will be reviewed and the citations removed where it was not appropriate to add them.

If you wish to continue contributing, please first consider citing other reliable secondary sources such as review articles that were written by other researchers in your field and that are already highly cited in the literature. If you wish to cite sources for which you may have a conflict of interest, please start a new section on the article's talk page and add {{Edit COI}} to ask a volunteer to review whether or not the citation should be added. :Jay8g [V•T•E] 06:53, 14 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for your feedback.

I acknowledge that my website is affiliated with various sources. However, I ensure that no affiliate links are included directly within the citations. Instead, I provide links to my website's blog only where citations are required on Wikipedia.

My intention is not to promote my website or affiliated products but to offer relevant references where they are needed as per Wikipedia’s guidelines. I assure you that there are no affiliate links or promotional content in the blogs on my site.

Thank you for your understanding. Sanskruti.vasu (talk) 10:37, 14 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I don't think you're understanding the issue. You should not reference sources that you have published yourself, regardless of content, especially when they are low-quality sources like blogs. This is both a conflict of interest/spam problem and a reliability problem. Please only add references to quality, reliable sources that you have not written yourself/are not on your own website. :Jay8g [V•T•E] 01:17, 15 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

If my website offers high-quality content and valuable User Generated Content (UGC), is it acceptable to add sources or citations from my site to Wikipedia, or is it not permissible to reference one's own website on Wikipedia? Sanskruti.vasu (talk) 04:03, 15 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

You should not be referencing your own website regardless of what is on it, AND you should not be referencing user-generated content regardless of what website it is on. It is very obvious that the link in question ([2]) is low-quality SEO garbage that only exists to direct people towards affiliated links (I'm not surprised you immediately jumped to that earlier) and other advertisements. This is the exact type of thing that Wikipedia's policies against spam are intended to address. If you continue adding references to this website, it will be blacklisted from Wikipedia. :Jay8g [V•T•E] 06:11, 15 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
