User talk:BølgenMedia

June 2023
Welcome to Wikipedia. I noticed that your username, "BølgenMedia", may not comply with our username policy. Please note that you may not use a username that represents the name of a company, group, organization, product, service, or website. Examples of usernames that are not allowed include "XYZ Company", "MyWidgetsUSA.com", and "Foobar Museum of Art". However, you are permitted to use a username that contains such a name if it identifies you individually (not your role), such as "Sara Smith at XYZ Company", "Mark at WidgetsUSA", or "FoobarFan87", but not "SEO Manager at XYZ Company".

Please also note that Wikipedia does not allow accounts to be shared by multiple people and that you may not advocate for or promote any company, group, organization, product, service, or website, regardless of your username. Please also read our paid editing policy and our conflict of interest guideline. If you are a single individual and are willing to contribute to Wikipedia in an unbiased manner, please request a change of username by completing the form at Special:GlobalRenameRequest, choosing a username that complies with our username policy. Alternatively, you can just create a new account and use that for editing. If you believe that your username does not violate our policy, please leave a note here explaining why. In short, your username can't be "BølgenMedia", which is an "Advertising agency with a main focus on the Stavanger/Sandnes area" per http s://www.facebook.com/bolgenmedia    —Alalch E. 13:19, 7 June 2023 (UTC)

Hello BølgenMedia. 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:BølgenMedia. 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.

All in all, you have disclosed that you are connected to BølgenMedia, which may be a business name under which you as a single individual do business as an "Advertising agency with a main focus on the Stavanger/Sandnes area.", or BølgenMedia is not a single individual, and you work for BølgenMedia. This is evident from your username, and your username must change which I have posted about separately. You are obvisously paid by Neodrill to promote their company and products. So you actually need to disclose paid edits with respect to those topics. —Alalch E. 13:25, 7 June 2023 (UTC)


 * They made the PAID disclosure, but are writing promo content with promo username. -- Deepfriedokra (talk) 13:32, 7 June 2023 (UTC)
 * You're right, I misread the disclosure notice. —Alalch E. 13:39, 7 June 2023 (UTC)

Advertising on userpage
Hello, I'm Drm310. I wanted to let you know that one or more of your recent contributions to User:BølgenMedia have been undone because they appeared to be promotional. Advertising and using Wikipedia as a "soapbox" are against Wikipedia policy and not permitted; Wikipedia articles should be written objectively, using independent sources, and from a neutral perspective. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about Wikipedia. I have left your paid editing disclosure, but any advertisement of your company for any reason is prohibited. You still have to address the issue with your account name, as mentioned in an earlier notice. --Drm310 🍁 (talk) 14:10, 7 June 2023 (UTC)

 Your account has been indefinitely blocked from editing because of the following problems: the account has been used for advertising or promotion, which is contrary to the purpose of Wikipedia, and your username indicates that the account represents a business, organisation, group, or web site, which is against the username policy.

You may request a change of username and unblock if you intend to make useful contributions instead of promoting your business or organization. To do this, first search Special:CentralAuth for available usernames that comply with the username policy. Once you have found an acceptable username, post the text  at the bottom of your talk page. Replace the text "Your proposed new username" with your new username and replace the text "Your reason here" with your reasons to be unblocked. In your reasons, you must: Appeals: If, after reviewing the guide to appealing blocks, you believe this block was made in error, you may appeal it by adding the text  at the bottom of your talk page. Replace the text "Your reason here" with the reasons you believe the block was an error, and publish the page. Courcelles (talk) 14:21, 7 June 2023 (UTC)
 * Disclose any compensation you may receive for your contributions in accordance with the paid-contribution disclosure requirement.
 * Convince us that you understand the reason for your block and that you will not repeat the kind of edits for which you were blocked.
 * Describe in general terms the contributions that you intend to make if you are unblocked.


 * Hello, and thank you for getting back to me about this.
 * What I am trying to do, is to write an objective piece on a technology within the oil sector. How is this different from any other industry descriptions? As well as a biography about the company behind it. I´ve tried to not make it biased - but i can make additional edits to make it even less personal. I´ve also disclosed, according to the guidelines, that I belong to an Agency, and that we get paid by client. As for the username, I wasn´t aware that i could not use BolgenMedia as a username, and quickly changed this to something neutral. I´m sorry for any inconvenience this may have caused, but in all honesty I´m trying to add information about a certain technology. BølgenMedia (talk) 09:22, 8 June 2023 (UTC)
