 * Thanks for the quick response.


 * You must comply 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 SEO.


 * 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:Cedmundson. 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. ElKevbo (talk) 18:43, 16 July 2020 (UTC)

Hi. Sorry. Wikipedia is very confusing to me, and I didn't know there were such rules. I updated my user page. Please let me know if I did it correctly. I don't think I did, but as I said, I'm confused by a good majority of this process. This whole thing started just because the logo is wrong on the page and we want it changed. Apparently, we have to make 10 edits before that can happen, which is what I was in the process of achieving. Sorry for any issues caused.Cedmundson (talk) 19:39, 16 July 2020 (UTC)
