Welcome!

Hello, KPC Social, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Unfortunately, one or more of your recent edits to the page The Catch of the Season did not conform to Wikipedia's verifiability policy, and may have been removed. Wikipedia articles should refer only to facts and interpretations verified in reliable, reputable print or online sources or in other reliable media. Always provide a reliable source for quotations and for any material that is likely to be challenged, or it may be removed. Wikipedia also has a related policy against including original research in articles.

If you are stuck and looking for help, please see the guide for citing sources or come to The Teahouse, where experienced Wikipedians can answer any queries you have.

I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Again, welcome! AntiDionysius (talk) 06:06, 16 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed. Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reason left by User4edits was:

This submission's references do not show that the subject qualifies for a Wikipedia article—that is, they do not show significant coverage (not just passing mentions) about the subject in published, reliable, secondary sources that are independent of the subject (see the guidelines on the notability of people). Before any resubmission, additional references meeting these criteria should be added (see technical help and learn about mistakes to avoid when addressing this issue). If no additional references exist, the subject is not suitable for Wikipedia.

April 2024

Hello KPC Social. The nature of your edits, such as the one you made to Draft:Shaikh Nawaf Saud Al-Sabah, 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 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 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:KPC Social. The template {{Paid}} can be used for this purpose – e.g. in the form: {{paid|user=KPC Social|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. DoubleGrazing (talk) 12:14, 7 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hello DoubleGrazing.

Thank you for your comment and guidance.

I am not being paid for this article; it is an extra from my end to publish this article. I have read and understood Wikipedia's mandatory paid editing disclosure requirements, Wikimedia's Foundation Terms of Use, as well as the conflict of interest terms. I have declared COI in the talk section since I work for the same entity, but I am not being paid to do this. Please reconsider the article with the new information presented, and let me know if there is anything else I can do.

Regards! KPC Social (talk) 09:45, 8 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

If you work for KPC, then presumably you are paid for your work – or are you volunteering your time for free? You don't need to be paid specifically to edit Wikipedia; as long as you're employed by the organisation, you come under our paid-editing rules.

Also, the disclosure on your user page does not specify the article in relation to which you have a conflict of interest. -- DoubleGrazing (talk) 09:49, 8 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for clearing up the confusion I had. Noted. I will disclose and specify the needed information accordingly on the user page. KPC Social (talk) 09:59, 8 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

You must use the paid-editing template {{Paid}}, not the general COI one. -- DoubleGrazing (talk) 10:18, 8 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I just fixed it. Is it correct? KPC Social (talk) 10:22, 8 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
