Deletion discussion about Labor Finders
Hello, Constructo,

I wanted to let you know that there's a discussion about whether Labor Finders should be deleted. Your comments are welcome at Articles for deletion/Labor Finders.

If you're new to the process, articles for deletion is a group discussion (not a vote!) that usually lasts seven days. If you need it, there is a guide on how to contribute. Last but not least, you are highly encouraged to continue improving the article; just be sure not to remove the tag about the deletion nomination from the top.

Thanks,

Nomination of Seth Levine for deletion

Notice of Conflict of interest noticeboard discussion
There is currently a discussion at Conflict of interest/Noticeboard regarding a possible conflict of interest incident with which you may be involved. Thank you. Rentier (talk) 22:27, 16 December 2017 (UTC)
 * I asked Seth Levine to release the photo while Editing about him without pay, however I was paid for my work on the Sarens page as a part of my contracting business, and from the same firm for my Brand Relationship edits. Other edits were made out of my interest to edit in my field. Constructo (talk) 07:49, 17 December 2017 (UTC)

Paid editing requires further disclosure
Can you please read through both the paid editing and conflict of interest guidelines and in particular note the following: Please ask if you have questions about how to do this. Thank you, Melcous (talk) 22:10, 17 December 2017 (UTC)
 * You should include a disclosure on your user page that notes all paid contributions and who you have been paid by - the best way to do this is to use the Template:Paid including both the name of the employer and of the client for each article
 * You should also include a disclosure on the talk page of each article you have been paid to contribute to - the easiest way to do this is to use the following template: Template:Connected contributor (paid)
 * You should include a statement in the edit summary of every contribution to these articles that you have been paid to edit the article

Okay Melcous I added who paid me those two times to my landing page. It looks like someone else placed those messages you mentioned on some article pages, but not the ones I was paid to edit? How can I fix that? It looks like I’m claiming, or at least Wikipedia is, that I was employed by companies I’ve never worked for, and I would never claim to have a job I didn’t have; that’s careersuicide in the construction and repair industry...

 * has helpfully added the connected contributor template to the talk page of Sarens, but has not been able to fill in the details of your client and employer, as you had not yet provided them. Nothing has been added to the talk pages of the other two articles you have disclosed you have been paid to edit, nor have you used the template noted above on your talk page. You need to do this. You should be aware that paid editing is frowned upon here by a lot of other editors, and it will likely cause them to view all of your contributions with suspicion, so you will need to very carefully disclose when you are being paid and when you are not, and even if you are not been paid, disclose any conflict of interests you have. You also need to make sure none of your edits violate guidelines like WP:PROMO or WP:NPOV. Finally, if you are editing articles for payment, should not edit them directly, but rather go through the WP:AFC process, and then for established articles, make suggestions on the WP:TALK page, so that your contributions are being reviewed by neutral editors before they are added to the main space of the encyclopedia. Thank you. Melcous (talk) 22:17, 18 December 2017 (UTC)

I can do that Melcous, and didn’t really think about writing here for pay again (a lot of drama over $50). But it’s still looks like I’m claiming to have been paid by companies I don’t work for with those red things, would you mind explaining how do I fix that? I’d prefer to fix this sooner rather than later. Constructo (talk) 22:32, 18 December 2017 (UTC)
 * If there are tags placed on articles that you were not paid to edit, then I would suggest you clearly detail here which articles and state clearly for each of them that you were not paid (and also clearly explain whether you have any other conflict of interest regarding them), and then ask the editor who placed the tags if they will remove them. Melcous (talk) 22:36, 18 December 2017 (UTC)

Where do I do that Melcous, and also, how do I add who paid me to the talk pages? I can’t seem to find that info anywhere. Constructo (talk) 22:39, 18 December 2017 (UTC)
 * You can do that here on your talk page (maybe start a new heading), and then I would suggest leaving a message on the talk page of the other editor/s who added the templates letting them know you have made full disclosures and asking them to remove the tags. For the talk pages of the articles you have been paid to edit you should use this template: Template:Connected contributor (paid). If you go to that page, look at the Example (which you can copy and paste) and then add your details for User 1 (you can remove the other users as you are the only editor involved), the person who paid you for U1-employer; the client for U1-client; yes for U1-EH (this is edit history, meaning yes you have edited the article).

Okay, very helpful! I’ll follow your advice. Constructo (talk) 22:45, 18 December 2017 (UTC)
