Template:Welcome-paid

Hello,, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your recent contributions.

I noticed that you have disclosed a conflict of interest and would like to thank you for being forthcoming about that. To keep Wikipedia neutral, you are strongly discouraged from directly editing any existing articles you have a conflict of interest with. Proposed edits can be suggested on the talk pages of such articles, and it is strongly suggested that new articles in such an area be created through the articles for creation process, rather than directly.

Wikipedia generally does not allow editors to have usernames which imply that the account belongs to a company or corporation. If you have a username like this, you should request a change of username or create a new account. (A name that identifies the user as an individual within a given organization may be OK.)

You are required by the Wikimedia Terms of Use to disclose your employer, client and affiliation. If you have not done so already, you can post the mandatory disclosure to your user page at User:. The template Paid can be used for this purpose – e.g. in the form:.

Here are some pages that you might find helpful: I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Please sign your messages on talk pages using four tildes ( ~ ); this will automatically insert your username and the date. If you need help, check out Questions, or. Again, welcome!
