Hello JMacD77. 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 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:JMacD77. The template {{Paid}} can be used for this purpose – e.g. in the form: {{paid|user=JMacD77|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. Jikaoli Kol (talk) 05:50, 30 December 2019 (UTC)

Hey Jikaoli Kol, I’m not being compensated, just passionate about the advertising industry and Canadian agencies. After seeing this agency on Adweek over the holidays, I decided to try my hand at contributing to Wikipedia. The process is a bit overwhelming, but I’m eager to learn and appreciate any guidance you can give. JMacD77 (talk) 16:26, 30 December 2019 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of File:Wunder Creative.png

The file File:Wunder Creative.png has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Unused logo, see Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Wunder (creative agency).

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated files}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the file's talk page.

Please consider addressing the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated files}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and files for discussion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. MER-C 03:25, 10 January 2020 (UTC)
