Please do not add promotional material to Wikipedia. While objective prose about beliefs, organisations, people, products or services is acceptable, Wikipedia is not intended to be a vehicle for soapboxing, advertising or promotion. Thank you.

Welcome!

Hello, Webcud, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Unfortunately, your edit to Canadian University of Dubai does not conform to Wikipedia's Neutral Point of View policy (NPOV). Wikipedia articles should refer only to facts and interpretations that have been stated in print or on reputable websites or other forms of media.

There's a page about the NPOV policy that has tips on how to effectively write about disparate points of view without compromising the NPOV status of the article as a whole. If you are stuck, and looking for help, please come to the Questions page, where experienced Wikipedians can answer any queries you have! Or, click here to ask for help on your talk page, and a volunteer should respond shortly. Below are a few other good links for newcomers:

I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Please sign your name on talk pages using four tildes (~~~~); this will automatically produce your name and the date. If you have any questions, check out Wikipedia:Questions or ask me on my talk page. Again, welcome! Victor Schmidt mobil (talk) 12:55, 7 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Hello Webcud. The nature of your edits, such as the one you made to Canadian University Dubai, 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:Webcud. The template {{Paid}} can be used for this purpose – e.g. in the form: {{paid|user=Webcud|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. —C.Fred (talk) 16:01, 17 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@C.Fred: Hi C.Fred thank you very much for the corrections and insights. Really learning the curves of wikis. A basic info and disclosure of Webcud has been added in compliance with the directive.

Please kindly enlighten, if it is good to continue with the edits that was posted. And hopefully, future edits for Canadian University Dubai wiki page.

You may want to clarify what one specific individual is using this account. Wikipedia accounts should not be shared, and role accounts are not permitted.

As far as edits to the article, I suggest that you propose changes at the talk page (you may add the {{request edit}}) template to call attention to the request) and let independent editors make the changes, if they are appropriate and in keeping with Wikipedia policies. —C.Fred (talk) 17:51, 17 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@C.Fred: Hi C.Fred thank you for your precious time. Corrected, yes, it is assigned to an individual, the Webmaster, me at the moment. In cases, in the future, if the current webmaster will be out of the company would it be best to transfer the account to the new individual or create a new account and re-associate with the employer? Humbly asking for guidance.

I will gladly do that. Thank you very much.
