Managing a conflict of interest
Hello, Simon.mangel. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about in the page Euglena Co., Ltd, 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 WP: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. —  Insertcleverphrasehere (or here) (click me!)    08:12, 14 November 2019 (UTC)

Euglena Co., Ltd moved to draftspace
An article you recently created, Euglena Co., Ltd, is too promotional in nature to remain in the main article space. In addition, you are highly suspected of being a paid editor with a conflict of interest. Editors with a conflict of interest are required to submit new articles through Articles for Creation. As such, I have moved it to draft space and tagged it to be run through the AfC process. Hoever, note that in it's current state I don't think it will be accepted. —  Insertcleverphrasehere (or here) (click me!)    08:14, 14 November 2019 (UTC)
 * Per your email pretending to deny your association with Euglena, and changing your linkedin profile to remove "Intern at Euglena" to "Student at emlyon business school", did you really think that was supposed to convince me? I sent you the link above to the linkedin search, did you think I wouldn't remember or think I just read it wrong or something? —  Insertcleverphrasehere (or here) (click me!)    10:52, 14 November 2019 (UTC)
 * I've actually still got the page in question open, and have taken a screenshot. In any case, the correct process is for users with a conflict of interest to use the AfC process. It might well be that the company is notable, it probably is, but people with a COI ar incapable of writing in an unbiased or neutral manner, and that is why independent review is necessary. —  Insertcleverphrasehere (or here) (click me!)    10:55, 14 November 2019 (UTC)

Hello Simon.mangel. The nature of your edits gives the impression you have an undisclosed financial stake in promoting a topic, such as the edit you made to Algae fuel, 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:Simon.mangel. 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. MrOllie (talk) 12:17, 19 November 2019 (UTC)
