User talk:Electriclamb

March 2021
Hello Electriclamb. The nature of your edits, such as the one you made to Ini Archibong, 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:Electriclamb. 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. Jack Frost (talk) 11:24, 27 March 2021 (UTC)

Hi @User:Jack Frost. Sorry I am new to wikipedia editing, as I wrote on your talk page I am definitely not being paid (sorry that might have not been the right place to do that? unsure :/), just a student doing research on this designer. I think he deserves a page on wikipedia as he is pretty famous. I have now deleted all language that sounded like I was praising him too much. please review the article and let me know what you think! thanks. again I am new to this so I would welcome any advice on how to write better wikipedia articles!Electriclamb (talk) 19:36, 27 March 2021 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Ini Archibong


A tag has been placed on Ini Archibong, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page seems to be unambiguous advertising which only promotes a company, group, product, service, person, or point of view and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become encyclopedic. Please read the guidelines on spam and FAQ/Organizations for more information.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the. Celestina007 (talk) 11:42, 27 March 2021 (UTC)

{unblock|I am not the person who I am being accused of being. You can Google her and find her in two seconds. She works for Samuel Ross -- I do not. I am trying to develop new skills while improving my writing and research techniques. Like most people, I have used Wikipedia extensively for years. I noticed places where I thought I could add something positive and useful so I decided to join the community. I have an interesting list of things I thought would be good to add (obviously now on hold, but I would be happy to share this). I was starting to enjoy being part of Wikipedia but honestly, it has been pretty unpleasant having to constantly defend myself. I am not a paid anything. I am not a sock puppet. I am just someone who wants to contribute to something that I think is valuable. Electriclamb (talk) 10:57, 26 April 2021 (UTC)}}

Hi Jpgordon. Thanks for taking the time to review this! I'm really happy about the outcome :) Electriclamb (talk) 20:15, 7 June 2021 (UTC)
