Welcome to Wikipedia. I noticed that your username, "Commodore Industries", may not meet Wikipedia's username policy because It might imply shared use for a company. If you believe that your username does not violate our policy, please leave a note here explaining why. As an alternative, you may ask for a change of username by completing the form at Special:GlobalRenameRequest, or you may simply create a new account for editing. Thank you.

 * I do represent Commodore Industries as Development Director
 * We are simply creating our page
 * thanks Commodore Industries (talk) 13:56, 25 October 2022 (UTC)
 * Hello again! I understand, but you'll want to request a username change, OR at the very least, disclose on your userpage. I'll leave a Conflict of Interest message below this. It's just a template, but it should help you out a bit with disclosing. Leave me a message on my talk page if you need any help!  SPF121188  (talk this way) (contribs) 16:04, 25 October 2022 (UTC)
 * I do follow the process for a username change Commodore Industries (talk) 08:41, 26 October 2022 (UTC)
 * Perfect, you're good to go! Let me know again if you have any questions or if I can help in any way! SPF121188  (talk this way) (contribs) 12:37, 26 October 2022 (UTC)
 * Not quite. You're only "good to go" once you've made the PAID editing disclosure required by the Foundation's terms of use. Cabayi (talk) 12:50, 26 October 2022 (UTC)
 * hello
 * none is paid to write the page, do I have to fill some form?? Antonymaltese (talk) 13:00, 26 October 2022 (UTC)

AH, yes. Sorry about that,. Still kind of scratching the surface in relation to this. Thanks! SPF121188 (talk this way) (contribs) 12:57, 26 October 2022 (UTC)
 * As the link above explains, you should use the Paid template on your user page. The Italian wiki will have a similar requirement because it's a WMF requirement, not just a local policy. I can't read enough Italian to tell you how it's done on itwiki. Cabayi (talk) 13:08, 26 October 2022 (UTC)
 * hello
 * the user is not paid, there is no payment, so can we close this point? thanks Antonymaltese (talk) 13:16, 26 October 2022 (UTC)
 * "represent Commodore Industries as Development Director" yet claim you're "not paid". Please explain. Cabayi (talk) 10:10, 27 October 2022 (UTC)

Managing a conflict of interest
Hello, Commodore Industries. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about on Wikipedia, you may have a conflict of interest (COI). Editors with a conflict of interest may be unduly influenced by their connection to the topic. See the conflict of interest guideline and FAQ for organizations for more information. We ask that you:


 * avoid editing or creating articles about yourself, your family, friends, colleagues, company, organization, clients, or competitors;
 * propose changes on the talk pages of affected articles (you can use the request edit template);
 * disclose your conflict of interest when discussing affected articles (see Conflict of interest);
 * avoid linking to your organization's website in other articles (see Spam);
 * do your best to comply with Wikipedia's content policies.

In addition, you are required by the Wikimedia Foundation's terms of use to disclose your employer, client, and affiliation with respect to any contribution which forms all or part of work for which you receive, or expect to receive, compensation. See Paid-contribution disclosure.

Also, editing for the purpose of advertising, publicising, or promoting anyone or anything is not permitted. Thank you. SPF121188 (talk this way) (contribs) 16:04, 25 October 2022 (UTC)
