Hello Kconseedsman. The nature of your edits, such as the one you made to Seedsman Seeds, 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:Kconseedsman. 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. 331dot (talk) 12:59, 23 March 2022 (UTC)


 * Hi 331dot I apologise as this is my first experience editing anything on Wikipedia so am not clued into the processes. I am not being compensated for my efforts I am simply a long time Seedsman customer and noted their page was old and still using the old logo. I used information from their "about" to help add information but can see now how this is not in line with guidelines. I have since removed anything that may be seen as advertorial in the hopes that will help keep the page. Thank you. Kconseedsman (talk) 15:07, 25 March 2022 (UTC)
 * Copying information from their website would be a copyright violation. Even if not, Wikipedia articles are for summarizing what independent reliable sources say about the company, not what it says about itself. 331dot (talk) 15:24, 25 March 2022 (UTC)
 * Hence the removal of most of the content Kconseedsman (talk) 15:25, 25 March 2022 (UTC)
