Hello AlvaroTwe. The nature of your edits, such as the one you made to Frank Mann (artist), 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:AlvaroTwe. The template Paid can be used for this purpose – e.g. in the form:. 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. Netherzone (talk) 01:02, 11 September 2023 (UTC)

Also, a lot of the content in the article seems like it was made up. None of the museum collections could be verified, nor could any of the awards. The Early Life section seemed to be written by an AI program. Multiple publications don't exist either. Is this article possibly a hoax? Netherzone (talk) 01:29, 11 September 2023 (UTC)


 * Also how could he have written for BLAST Magazine when it stopped publishing in 1920, thirty years before he was born? Netherzone (talk) 13:43, 11 September 2023 (UTC)

Deletion discussion about Frank Mann (artist)
Hello, AlvaroTwe, and welcome to Wikipedia. I edit here too, under the username Netherzone, and I thank you for your contributions.

I wanted to let you know, however, that I've started a discussion about whether an article that you created, Frank Mann (artist), should be deleted, as I am not sure that it is suitable for inclusion in Wikipedia in its current form. Your comments are welcome at Articles for deletion/Frank Mann (artist).

You might like to note that such discussions usually run for seven days and are not votes. And, our guide about effectively contributing to such discussions is worth a read. Last but not least, you are highly encouraged to continue improving the article; just be sure not to remove the tag about the deletion nomination from the top.

If you have any questions, please leave a comment here and prepend it with. And, don't forget to sign your reply with. Thanks!
