: Hi GSS, Hope you're doing well. That's true that I have a connection with Wegz, we are a PR company called [https://www.takwene.com/ Takwene] and Wegz is a client of ours. Actually, My Supervisor "Ahmed Raafat" tried to hire someone who is familiar with Wikipedia rules to publish this article but due too the high cost of writing the article and then publishing it he assigned it to me to publish but, unfortunately, I wasn't knowledgeable of COI rules and for sure we would be happy to declare our connection and stick to the rules and policies of Wikipedia. I want to state that it was my first-time edit with COI and all of my previous minor edits were edited of my own volition. I'm ready to share a piece of evidence that we only hired a freelancer to write the article and didn't use it at the end. I have disclosed on my user page and in the article talks page too and I'm happy to submit it through [[Wikipedia:Articles for creation|articles for creation]] to male sure that we are following Wikimedia Terms of Use.

Hello JoyGenea. 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 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 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. 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:JoyGenea. The template {{Paid}} can be used for this purpose – e.g. in the form: {{paid|user=JoyGenea|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. Template:Z159 GSS 💬 08:27, 5 July 2020 (UTC)
