Hello Gladys howard. 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 egregious 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, and if it does not, 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:Gladys howard. 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) 16:36, 12 May 2019 (UTC)

Dear MrOllie, Thank for dropping your message on my talk page about conflict of interest (COI) editing regarding one of my recent edit. But, I want to make sure you that none of my recent edits were paid one. And I'm well aware that the addition of any company to both of the page will get removed if the company is not notable as both of the pages are well maintained by the Wikipedia administrators. But, I want to contribute only useful content to Wikipedia and in terms of what I have made these edits which were reverted back by you but I feel that were the right edits that needed to stay there, so kindly revert your edits. I think you should review again and let it be there as it's usual edit and the company is notable too. I'll take extra care while contributing to Wikipedia but those entries were genuine ones. Thank you! Gladys howard (talk) 07:19, 15 May 2019 (UTC)

Hello Gladys Howard. In case this can help, I would like to point at WP:BLANK, part of the talk pages editing guidelines. Users can blank or archive a message on their talk page, which is still considered sign that they have acknowledged it. Restoring the message is a common beginner's mistake, that I've done myself, but it's not recommended. Thanks and happy editing, — Paleo Neonate  – 01:40, 15 May 2019 (UTC)

Hello Paleo, thank you for the information. Yes, I was unaware of these things. I'll take care of this from the next time. Thank you again! Gladys howard (talk) 07:17, 15 May 2019 (UTC)
