Paid editing?
Hello JoshuaGNZ. 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:JoshuaGNZ. 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. Theroadislong (talk) 21:25, 1 August 2022 (UTC)


 * Hi Theroadislong,
 * I'm not getting paid or anyway associated. I'm just been a customer of the shop for a while and really like the company and I just found some articles with some basic information about the company.
 * I've never written a wikipedia article before, do I need to add more information? Or what specifically makes it seem like an ad?  JoshuaGNZ (talk) 21:42, 1 August 2022 (UTC)

Further contributions to Wikipedia
Kia ora JoshuaGNZ, thank you for your recent contributions to Wharariki Ecosanctuary. I encourage you to consider wider contributions to Wikipedia, to help avoid giving the impression that you are only interested in topics associated with the company HealthPost. There are few limits to what you can work on in Wikipedia. For instance, if you are interested in the translocation of species in New Zealand for conservation reasons, there are lots of improvements that could be made to many existing articles. But that is only one topic. There are around 6 million articles in the English Wikipedia, and around 50,000 articles of special interest to New Zealand. It would be great for the community to have another contributor interested in further development of content relevant to New Zealand. If it would help to get in contact with me, or another editor in the New Zealand editor community to discuss topics of interest to you, expanding existing articles, or creating new ones, just send us a message on our talk pages.
