Thank you for your recent contributions. Getting started creating new articles on Wikipedia can be tricky, and you might like to try creating a draft of your article in draftspace or in your userspace first, which you can then ask for feedback on if necessary, with less risk of deletion. Do make sure you also read help available to you, including Your First Article and the Tutorial. You might also like to try the Article Wizard, which has an option to create a draft version. Thank you. Uhai (talk) 21:46, 3 December 2023 (UTC)

Hello, I'm Squeakachu. I wanted to let you know that one or more of your recent contributions to Translater have been undone because they appeared to be promotional. Advertising and using Wikipedia as a "soapbox" are against Wikipedia policy and not permitted; Wikipedia articles should be written objectively, using independent sources, and from a neutral perspective. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about Wikipedia. Thank you. Squeakachu (talk) 08:09, 4 December 2023 (UTC)


 * Hello, I am trying to add content about a website while staying completely neutral. You keep deleting the page persistently. There is information about hundreds of sites on Wikipedia, translate.com, Google Translate, and similar platforms. I am not the owner of the site I want to share; I am merely trying to add information about a site that I use regularly and am satisfied with. This is not an advertising effort. If you think I am not neutral, please edit and publish a page about the site in question. Kriptorehberin (talk) 08:15, 4 December 2023 (UTC)
 * If you're not trying to advertise, then no worries. As far as I can tell Translater does not appear to meet Wikipedia's requirements for notability.  To warrant an article, any subject must have received coverage in multiple independent, reliable sources.  The source you added were all owned or written by Translater and are therefore not independent.  Even if they were independent, blogs are generally not acceptable sources.  Please do not restore your version of the article without providing better sourcing. Squeakachu (talk) 08:28, 4 December 2023 (UTC)
 * That you are not trying to advertise and are unaffiliated with this website (though carefully worded just to say you are "not the owner") is a blatant lie. See https://medium.com/@kriptorehberin/translate-language-and-dictionary-451a623671d5, you having renamed your Medium account but with the old name still redirecting to the new one, where you refer to Translater as "our" site. Besides this, it's also obvious you are affiliated based on the information you added that is not available elsewhere, such as the tech stack and employees. Courtesy ping @Squeakachu.

Hello Kriptorehberin. 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 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 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:Kriptorehberin. 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. Uhai (talk) 16:55, 4 December 2023 (UTC)


 * Hello, you have not yet disclosed your relationship to this company. Please do so before you attempt to edit further. ... disco spinster   talk  00:09, 26 December 2023 (UTC)
