Welcome!
Hello, Greenwich Entertainment Assistant, and welcome to Wikipedia!&#32;Thank you for your contributions.

I noticed that one of the first articles you edited was Greenwich Entertainment, which appears to be dealing with a topic with which you may have a conflict of interest. In other words, you may find it difficult to write about that topic in a neutral and objective way, because you are, work for, or represent, the subject of that article.&#32;Your recent contributions may have already been undone for this very reason.

To reduce the chances of your contributions being undone, you might like to draft your revised article before submission, and then ask me or another editor to proofread it. See our help page on userspace drafts for more details. If the page you created has already been deleted from Wikipedia, but you want to save the content from it to use for that draft, don't hesitate to ask anyone from this list and they will copy it to your user page.

One rule we do have in connection with conflicts of interest is that accounts used by more than one person will unfortunately be blocked from editing. 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.)

In addition, if you receive, or expect to receive, compensation for any contribution you make, you must disclose your employer, client, and affiliation to comply with our terms of use and our policy on paid editing.

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.

Hello Greenwich Entertainment Assistant. The nature of your edits, such as the one you made to Greenwich Entertainment, 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:Greenwich Entertainment Assistant. 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. Kleuske (talk) 14:58, 13 January 2022 (UTC)

 You have been blocked indefinitely from editing for adding spam links. Persistent spammers will have their websites blacklisted from Wikipedia and potentially penalized by search engines. If you think there are good reasons for being unblocked, please read the guide to appealing blocks, then add the following text below the block notice on your talk page:.

 * Hi Alex. I have submitted a request to have my block reviewed. I was blocked due to some edits and my name reflecting that I work for Greenwich Entertainment. I am an intern at the company. I did not think this qualified as compensation as I am unpaid. I am willing to either disclose employer information or change my user name depending on which is the correct path forward. I apologize for having made edits that are not in compliance with Wikipedia guidelines. I can asure you that I will not be adding any outside links to Wikipedia if I am unblocked. I hope you will please forgive my mistakes and unblock me. Greenwich Entertainment Assistant (talk) 15:28, 3 May 2022 (UTC)

If unblocked, I would be adding films distributed by Greenwich Entertainment to the Filmography list on it's Wikipedia page. I would also be linking any Wikipedia pages for said films to the filmography list. As well, I would make sure the bio on the page is up to date. This would of course be done after I declare myself as a paid editor. I have submitted a username change request. Greenwich Entertainment Assistant (talk) 19:40, 3 May 2022 (UTC)
 * You will need to make an unblock request for someone else to review. I'd also suggest that you review WP:COI. 331dot (talk) 20:03, 3 May 2022 (UTC)
 * Thank you for referring me to this. I was unaware of the COI policies and how I was breaking them. I will resubmit a request with more information. Greenwich Entertainment Assistant (talk) 20:26, 3 May 2022 (UTC)

I currently only have plans to suggest edits for films distributed by Greenwich Entertainment, as well as for the Greenwich Entertainment Wikipedia page. As far as subject areas that interest me where I have no COI, I work for Greenwich Entertainment and only wish to make edits pertaining to Greenwich Entertainment, so there are no other subjects of which I plan on writing about. Of course, I would like to make these edits through the proper channels being either a request made via the talk page for said subjects or though the COI notice board. I can promise that NO writing/edits for subjects pertaining to Greenwich Entertainment and its films will be made directly by me, but instead only suggested by me through the correct methods in regards to COI standards. 4.79.103.43 (talk) 18:19, 17 May 2022 (UTC)
 * In that case, you'll almost certainly not be unblocked. We have little interest in single-purpose accounts (see WP:SPA), especially those who have violated WP:COI and WP:SPAM in that subject area. --Yamla (talk) 19:33, 17 May 2022 (UTC)
