User talk:JKowalska

Welcome!
Hello, JKowalska, and welcome to Wikipedia!&#32;Thank you for your contributions.

I noticed that one of the first articles you edited appears to be dealing with a topic with which you may have a conflict of interest. In other words, you may find it difficult to write about that topic in a neutral and objective way, because you are, work for, or represent, the subject of that article.&#32;Your recent contributions may have already been undone for this very reason.

To reduce the chances of your contributions being undone, you might like to draft your revised article before submission, and then ask me or another editor to proofread it. See our help page on userspace drafts for more details. If the page you created has already been deleted from Wikipedia, but you want to save the content from it to use for that draft, don't hesitate to ask anyone from this list and they will copy it to your user page.

One rule we do have in connection with conflicts of interest is that accounts used by more than one person will unfortunately be blocked from editing. Wikipedia generally does not allow editors to have usernames which imply that the account belongs to a company or corporation. If you have a username like this, you should request a change of username or create a new account. (A name that identifies the user as an individual within a given organization may be OK.)

In addition, if you receive, or expect to receive, compensation for any contribution you make, you must disclose your employer, client, and affiliation to comply with our terms of use and our policy on paid editing.

Here are some pages that you might find helpful:

 * How to create your first article (using the Article Wizard if you wish)

I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Please sign your messages on talk pages using four tildes ( ~ ); this will automatically insert your username and the date. If you need help, check out Questions, ask me on my talk page, or ask your question on this page and then place  before the question. Again, welcome! VViking Talk Edits 14:36, 7 November 2019 (UTC)

Hello --VViking Could you please specify what kind of information gave the impression that I might be biased while editing the topic? I don't have a conflict of interest and did provide real and as I though neutral-sounding information. I can reference them more extensivly if that's the case and/or make it less detailed. I would appreciate any help/comments and if possible to bring the updated version back. --JKowalska (talk) 08:01, 8 November 2019 (UTC)

Hello JKowalska. 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:JKowalska. 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. -- VViking Talk Edits 14:47, 7 November 2019 (UTC)

Hello --VViking, I don't expect and not even assume to receive any financial contributions for editing this page. I know the person that the WikiPage is about and found it rather sad and uncomplete therefore decided to add edits. What exactly made the impression? The number of edits? Could you please clarify because I'm confused. I rather haven't heard about getting benefits from promoting an scientist online. How should I proceed now? I would be grateful for any help and advice. Thank you! --JKowalska (talk) 15:01, 7 November 2019 (UTC)

Update: I read too fast your message and now I see you actually provided the solution/action in your last sentence. Herein I state that I am not being directly or indirectly compensated for my edits. --JKowalska (talk) 15:19, 7 November 2019 (UTC)
