Hello Cenedanicolo. 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:Cenedanicolo. 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) 12:57, 20 March 2023 (UTC)


 * I do not understand why updating a Wikipedia page and removing a subjective and non-factual statement would give the impression that I have an undisclosed financial stake in promoting a topic. I am a researcher at Imperial College London and I am not affiliated with Deutsche Bank, nor do I receive direct or indirect compensation for my edits. I am however ready to argue why the statement I removed should not be included in the Overview section of Deutsche Bank's page. Is an author's (or news paper's) thought on the integrity of a company worthy of the Overview section of a bank? If yes, should we add similar opinions on Morgan Stanley's page as well? But most importantly, how is this piece of information objective? Cenedanicolo (talk) 15:51, 20 March 2023 (UTC)
 * And why have my edits on the updated financial results been reverted? I provided official, legally-binding references. Cenedanicolo (talk) 15:53, 20 March 2023 (UTC)
 * More than half of your editing has been on Deutsche Bank's article, and you removed sourced criticism of the bank. Wikipedia does not require that all information shared be 'objective' - notable subjective information can and should be shared as well. MrOllie (talk) 15:55, 20 March 2023 (UTC)
 * I have two questions:
 * 1. Why have the updated financial results been removed?
 * 2. What is the line that defines which non-objective statements can be added to a Wikipedia page? Is it acceptable to add comments by notable subjective sources that have claimed that this institution had files for bankruptcy even though it was not true?
