User talk:PPublishing

Welcome!
Hello, PPublishing, and welcome to Wikipedia!&#32;Thank you for your contributions.

I noticed that one of the first articles you edited appears to be dealing with a topic with which you may have a conflict of interest. In other words, you may find it difficult to write about that topic in a neutral and objective way, because you are, work for, or represent, the subject of that article.&#32;Your recent contributions may have already been undone for this very reason.

To reduce the chances of your contributions being undone, you might like to draft your revised article before submission, and then ask me or another editor to proofread it. See our help page on userspace drafts for more details. If the page you created has already been deleted from Wikipedia, but you want to save the content from it to use for that draft, don't hesitate to ask anyone from this list and they will copy it to your user page.

One rule we do have in connection with conflicts of interest is that accounts used by more than one person will unfortunately be blocked from editing. Wikipedia generally does not allow editors to have usernames which imply that the account belongs to a company or corporation. If you have a username like this, you should request a change of username or create a new account. (A name that identifies the user as an individual within a given organization may be OK.)

In addition, if you receive, or expect to receive, compensation for any contribution you make, you must disclose your employer, client, and affiliation to comply with our terms of use and our policy on paid editing.

Here are some pages that you might find helpful:
 * Best practices for editors with close associations
 * The five pillars of Wikipedia
 * Contributing to Wikipedia
 * Tutorial
 * How to edit a page and How to develop articles
 * How to create your first article (using the Article Wizard if you wish)
 * Simplified Manual of Style

I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Please sign your messages on talk pages using four tildes ( ~ ); this will automatically insert your username and the date. If you need help, check out Questions, ask me on my talk page, or ask your question on this page and then place  before the question. Again, welcome!

Hi dear Unbroken Chain, Thank you for your message, I have now spoken to Wikimedia Sweden who helped me with more information. I will study all the links to make sure that I am informed of all the different rules to follow. i will also update my own page so you can find more information about me.

Kind regards, PPublishing (talk) 16:06, 15 February 2022 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of User:PPublishing


A tag has been placed on your user page, User:PPublishing, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page appears to be advertising which only promotes or publicises someone or something. Promotional editing of any kind is not permitted, whether it be promotion of a person, company, product, group, service, belief, or anything else. This is a violation of our policies regarding acceptable use of user pages — user pages are intended for active editors of Wikipedia to communicate with one another as part of the process of creating encyclopedic content, and should not be mistaken for free webhosting resources or advertising space. Please read the guidelines on spam, the guidelines on user pages, and, especially, our FAQ for Organizations.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the. Unbroken Chain (talk) 16:21, 15 February 2022 (UTC)

Hi dear unbroken chain, This information was checked with Wikimedia Sweden, i enquired whether or not I should refer to my website for more credibility. This was affirmative. Of course I don´t want to violate anything and this will be removed.

Paid/COI
Hello PPublishing. 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 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:PPublishing. 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. -- VViking Talk Edits 17:28, 15 February 2022 (UTC)

Hi dear VViking, Thanks for your feedback. I´m new here and all help is appreciated. I have talked to a swedish Wikpedia specialist now, who just explained that there are some differencies in Swedish and English Wikpedia, so therefore perhaps some of my contributions were not following the exact guidelines. Apologies for that. I have been given a link where it says that you can adopt a user in the beginning, so perhpas that would be the best. What is your advice?

Thanks! PPublishing (talk) 16:35, 16 February 2022 (UTC)
 * On English Wiki we frown on editing subjects you are connected with. It can be done but it's very difficult and often your edits are under more scrutiny then otherwise. I'm sorry, I know it's pedantic sometimes. Unbroken Chain (talk) 16:38, 16 February 2022 (UTC)

I do understand, thanks, and actually believe it´s a good thing. That is what it is all about, many people use only Wiki when referring to facts, so it has to be under scrutiny. So is it advised to post things in the "talk section" on each subject or better "adopting a user" right from the start?

PPublishing (talk) 19:25, 16 February 2022 (UTC)
 * I would suggest it on the Talkpage. You can still pursue the adopt a member course as well. Unbroken Chain (talk) 19:54, 16 February 2022 (UTC)

Thank you so much, appreciate your support!

Email
I received your email. You will not receive any assistance until you properly declare the conflict of interest you have in line with Wikipedia's terms of use by filling out the template and adding it to your userpage. –– FormalDude  (talk)  02:24, 13 November 2022 (UTC)


 * Thank you for coming back to me, I´ll look into this and see if this is appropriate. Otherwise I´ll return to clarify a bit more. PPublishing (talk) 22:08, 13 November 2022 (UTC)
 * I have looked at what you sent me, with the paid template, but I have not been paid to edit a wikipedia page. I have been asked to help out, my question is, is it possible to find someone that could be interested in helping out with publishing of "fact based material" for someone already on Wikipedia? Someone who has the appropriate knowledge for proper publishing. Or do you need to educate yourself? Once again, truly appreciate your reply! PPublishing (talk) 22:53, 14 November 2022 (UTC)
 * If you're not getting paid you still need to fill out and place it on your userpage. –– FormalDude   (talk)  08:08, 20 November 2022 (UTC)
 * Great, thanks for guiding me further. PPublishing (talk) 13:39, 20 November 2022 (UTC)
