Hello Boaz130. 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:Boaz130. 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. MrOllie (talk) 22:26, 9 February 2023 (UTC)


 * Hello MrOllie,
 * I do have a Financial stake in the company, I am an Independent broker with the firm in Canada. I don't expect or have received any financial compensation from World Financial group for editing the wiki page. I am simple trying to correct the information that paints us in a poor light as most people assume MLM's aren't profitable. we use elements of MLM where we work in agents warm markets. but we use an Agency model like Re/Max or most mortgage brokers use.
 * In researching the deciding factor for an MLM I have discovered two things that I believe disqualify WFG from being labeled an MLM.
 * First is being paid to recruit, as an example ACN which I have been approached to join before required myself to pay $249 to become a distributor with them, I found out that half of that would be paid directly to the person who recruited me. With WFG the recruiting agent receives $0 for any recruits.
 * Second is buying product to resell at a marketed up price, With world financial group the services we offer can't be resold as they are all based on each individual, I can't buy multiple insurance policy's for myself and then start selling them to clients at a later date.
 * Please feel free to ask any other questions and I will happily answer them, it is my goal to get your help in changing the wiki page. I can imagine you would only want to do the same for yourself in my shoes Boaz130 (talk) 17:33, 14 February 2023 (UTC)


 * If you are being paid directly or indirectly by the company to edit the Wikipedia about them, then please disclose this per the instructions above. If you are not being paid, but still have a vested interest in how this company is being portrayed, then please use the template on your userpage.


 * Please be aware that Wikipedia only cares about what reliable and independent sources have chosen to publish about a topic. We have little interest in what a company wishes to say about itself. The neutrality of the encyclopedia overrides all personal and business concerns of the subject. --Drm310 🍁 (talk) 20:35, 14 February 2023 (UTC)
