User talk:Fast Forward Marketing

November 2022
Hello Fast Forward Marketing. 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:Fast Forward Marketing. 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. Uhai (talk) 08:58, 22 November 2022 (UTC)


 * not paid Fast Forward Marketing (talk) 09:33, 22 November 2022 (UTC)
 * Would you care to explain how there is a company called Fast Forward Marketing whose listed address is located on the same street and in the same city and country as the listed address for Montecasino, an article that you have made extremely promotional-sounding edits to, e.g. this one, which reads like prose from a brochure?
 * On https://ffrwd.co.za/: The Pivot, Block E, 4th Floor, 1 Montecasino Boulevard Fourways, Gauteng
 * On https://www.montecasino.co.za/: Montecasino Boulevard, Fourways, 2055, South Africa
 * If you are a compensated employee of Fast Forward Marketing, and the companies whose articles you have been making edits to are paying clients of this company, then this constitutes paid editing whether or not you have been explicitly asked to edit Wikipedia. If this is pro bono work done by your company or there is some other explanation for how your edits cannot be considered paid editing, then there is still a serious Conflict of interest here and I highly recommend you cease editing of these articles.
 * On top of this, regardless of everything else, your username is a violation of Wikipedia's policy. I am posting a notice below with information about actions you need to take. Uhai (talk) 09:15, 23 November 2022 (UTC)
