User talk:PDWolves

Hi and welcome
Hi, if you are a representative of the club then please read Conflict of interest because you will have one and you need to act appropriately. You must also remember that you are not writing press releases but an encyclopedia so the club did not start the season "after many exciting off-season announcements" they started the season "after some off-season announcements". I know it sounds boring but then it's neutral in tone and not reading like an advert. Neither is Wikipedia here to promote your sponsors so please do not include links to their websites. Saying they are the team's sponsors is fine but no more than that. Have a read of Help:Editing you'll find it contains a lot of information about what to do and not to do. Nthep (talk) 12:58, 8 April 2020 (UTC) Hello Nthep. This was all very helpful, thank you. I will read the links you have provided and will be doing my utmost best to remove the bias and update the page with a neutral tone. Thank you for messaging back.

Hello PDWolves. The nature of your edits, such as the one you made to Edinburgh Wolves, 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 egregious type of COI; the Wikimedia Foundation regards it as a "black hat" practice akin to black-hat SEO.

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, and if it does not, 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:PDWolves. 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. — Jeff G. ツ 12:38, 8 April 2020 (UTC) Hello Jeff. I am not being paid for the edits and I apoligise for the bias of the edits. I am merely a representative of the club who's trying my best to update the page to make it current and relevant. I apoligise for the ignorance and naviety. I shall read the links that have been provided and do my best to remain unbiased in my future posts. Thank you.
