Hello Mikasala. 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 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:Mikasala. The template {{Paid}} can be used for this purpose – e.g. in the form: {{paid|user=Mikasala|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. SK2242 (talk) 20:53, 5 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Hi SK2242! Thank you for your message! Concerning the edits that I made, I do not know what will be the right thing to do, so I would like to ask your advice. I am not receiving or expect to receive compensation for my edits. I'm not directly or indirectly compensated for the article about Anex brand. It was entirely my initiative to write my first Wikipedia article about just that. I know this topic, so I thought it would be a good start to learn how to write articles here. But I work in this company, so I can't say that I'm a complete stranger. What will be the right thing to do in this situation? Should I post a mandatory disclosure to my user page?

If you are an employee you are being indirectly compensated and should still post a disclosure. SK2242 (talk) 18:35, 15 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Hi SK2242! Thank you for your answer! I posted a mandatory disclosure to my user page. Anything else I should do? Mikasala (talk) 20:51, 15 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
No problem. A reviewer will decide if your draft meets notability requirements, but there is a backlog so it may take a while. SK2242 (talk) 21:51, 15 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Ok, I got it. Many thanks for your help SK2242! Mikasala (talk) 10:44, 17 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
