Hello, Lrudak. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about on the page LELO, you may have a conflict of interest (COI). Editors with a conflict of interest may be unduly influenced by their connection to the topic. See the conflict of interest guideline and FAQ for organizations for more information. We ask that you:


 * avoid editing or creating articles about yourself, your family, friends, colleagues, company, organization or competitors;
 * propose changes on the talk pages of affected articles (you can use the request edit template);
 * disclose your conflict of interest when discussing affected articles (see Conflict of interest);
 * avoid linking to your organization's website in other articles (see Spam);
 * do your best to comply with Wikipedia's content policies.

In addition, you are required by the Wikimedia Foundation's terms of use to disclose your employer, client, and affiliation with respect to any contribution which forms all or part of work for which you receive, or expect to receive, compensation. See Paid-contribution disclosure.

Also, editing for the purpose of advertising, publicising, or promoting anyone or anything is not permitted. Thank you. Zippybonzo (talk) 18:34, 29 January 2022 (UTC)

Hello Lrudak. The nature of your edits, such as the one you made to LELO, 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:Lrudak. 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. Zippybonzo (talk) 18:34, 29 January 2022 (UTC)

Because of your highly promotional and poorly referenced edits to LELO, you have been blocked indefinitely from editing that article. You can make neutrally written, well-referenced formal edit requests at Talk: LELO. Please read the Guide to appealing blocks. Cullen328 (talk) 02:37, 3 February 2022 (UTC)

Hi, all. What can I do for you to unblock me? Could you please share some guidelines to fix my edits for the LELO Wiki page? I work for LELO, which is why I know what I have put on the LELO Wiki page. Thanks, Laura
 * If you want to appeal your block, then you must follow the Guide to appealing blocks precisely, and convince another administrator (not me) that you thoroughly understand why your previous behavior was disruptive, and provide convincing assurances that the behavior will not occur again. However, you are a company employee who has not yet fully complied with the Paid-contribution disclosure, which you should do promptly. Instead of trying to edit the article directly, you should be making properly formatted and well-referenced Edit requests at Talk: LELO. Cullen328 (talk) 17:13, 8 February 2022 (UTC)
