User talk:GreenTreePython

April 2020
Hello GreenTreePython. 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:GreenTreePython. 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. HickoryOughtShirt?4 (talk) 04:39, 20 April 2020 (UTC)

Hi there! I'm very new to Wikipedia editing, this is literally my first ever project! I am in no way paid for or related to any of the work done by David Adison. I'm an underground music fan who has come across many artists before that don't have Wikipedia pages before and finally decided to try making one as a project. I gathered these sources from the internet and other fan sites related to David Adison and his contemporaries' work. I'm a big fan of Bandcamp music scenes but have never spoken to or been employed by anyone related to David Adison or any of the publications included as references for this article submission.

Feel free to let me know if any additional info or testimony is needed! Appreciate the need for authenticity.

Best, GreenTreePython
