Wikipedia is not a platform for promotion

[edit]

Information icon Please do not add promotional material to Wikipedia. While objective prose about beliefs, organisations, people, products or services is acceptable, Wikipedia is not a vehicle for soapboxing, advertising or promotion. Thank you.-- Ponyobons mots 23:40, 24 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I am not promoting, I am trying to write the story for an organisation. Widevelop (talk) 23:43, 24 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
That's promotion.-- Ponyobons mots 23:47, 24 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Hello Widevelop. 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:Widevelop. The template {{Paid}} can be used for this purpose – e.g. in the form: {{paid|user=Widevelop|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. -- Ponyobons mots 23:47, 24 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I am the owner of the orfganisation and all I am looking for is to tell the story and history of my organisations Widevelop (talk) 23:56, 24 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
All of which runs contrary to Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Have you read the links I provided that explain why?-- Ponyobons mots 23:58, 24 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
yes i did Widevelop (talk) 00:02, 25 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
I am not being paid to edit or promote Widevelop (talk) 00:06, 25 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
You are the owner of an organization who wants to "tell the story and history of [your] organization". That's promotion. It's pretty much the third sentence of Wikipedia:Yes, it is promotion which I linked for you. That's what your website is for, not Wikipedia.-- Ponyobons mots 00:10, 25 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
ok, let me figure out how to delete this Widevelop (talk) 00:14, 25 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.

You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on Draft:PassCash, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page seems to be unambiguous advertising which only promotes a company, group, product, service, person, or point of view and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become encyclopedic. Please read the guidelines on spam and Wikipedia:FAQ/Organizations for more information.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator. SeanTVT (talk) 13:07, 8 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
