 * Hi there,
 * Yes, I have been hired by Jamie Luner to re-write her wikipedia page. I have been working on this with her since November, and we have finally finalized it. Everything that I have written on her page has been edited and approved by her. I have finally been publishing what we have written together, but it seems that things I have published are now being slowly removed.
 * As everything I have published has been vehemently discussed, edited, and then approved by Jamie, it is coming directly from the source. Is there a way to use her as a source for every single thing that has been removed? Is there a way to keep everything she has asked me to publish on her wikipedia page? Obviously, I have never done this before - but she has hired me to do this and now I keep running into roadblocks. Everytime I add what we have written together, someone decides to remove and delete it.
 * I am also aware that the pictures she has asked me to publish have been removed.
 * How can I ensure that this will not continue to happen?
 * Thank you for your help. Navaughan99 (talk) 15:50, 20 March 2024 (UTC)


 * "I have been hired by Jamie Luner" - the WMF's terms of use require you to make a proper declaration of this as described by the COI notice below. Please do this as your first business on Wikipedia.
 * "it is coming directly from the source" - Wikipedia article's are constructed on material from reliable, verifiable, independent sources, not from the subject. This is an encyclopedia, not her own website or her social media.
 * "Is there a way to keep everything she has asked me to publish" - No. Wikipedia, as it says on the front page, is "the free encyclopedia that anyone can edit."
 * "the pictures she has asked me to publish have been removed" - You should check your user talk page on Wiki Commons. The images will shortly be deleted unless you take steps to show that the images are properly licensed. The copyright holder is usually the photographer, not the subject. Repeating the photo's title as the Author and the License will not do.
 * "How can I ensure that this will not continue to happen? " You can't. That's how Wikipedia works.

Managing a conflict of interest
Hello, Navaughan99. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about on the page Jamie Luner, 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 article subjects for more information. We ask that you:


 * avoid editing or creating articles about yourself, your family, friends, colleagues, company, organization, clients, or competitors;
 * propose changes on the talk pages of affected articles (you can use the edit COI template);
 * disclose your conflict of interest when discussing affected articles (see );
 * avoid linking to your organization's website in other articles (see );
 * 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. Cabayi (talk) 16:24, 20 March 2024 (UTC)

Hello Navaughan99. The nature of your edits, such as the one you made to Jamie Luner, 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:Navaughan99. 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. —&thinsp;JJMC89&thinsp; (T·C) 16:25, 20 March 2024 (UTC)


 * Hi, thank you for your message. I may have been a little hasty in using the word "hired," as that is not the case. Jamie Luner is simply a friend, and not the most tech savvy so she asked me to publish her story for her.
 * She asked me to publish her story to give a more detailed and correct account of her professional career.
 * May I now continue making the edits she has asked me to make to her page? Navaughan99 (talk) 17:59, 22 March 2024 (UTC)
