Hello UstoKusto. 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:UstoKusto. The template {{Paid}} can be used for this purpose – e.g. in the form: {{paid|user=UstoKusto|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. GSS ^💬 18:26, 18 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, GSS ! I'm not a paid editor and I developed the page out of curiosity. Spencer Charnas is a famous musician and notable for the Ice Nine Kills band and his music. There is no doubt about his notability. I know some HTML coding and I developed the page because I wish to contribute Wikipedia. Also, I'm disappointed to see the way you treat and suppress new Wikipedia users discouraging them from editing and and creating new pages as it is allowed by Wikipedia. I took my time to read Wikipedia policy before starting my account and I know that the experienced editors are supposed to assume good faith for the novices' first edits. So, unless you have any specific issues with me, I'll go ahead and submit the draft via Wikipedia Draft Review System for the review of the experienced editors. I don't know, maybe I was too quick? Let me know if you still have any questions.--UstoKusto (talk) 18:35, 18 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
