Speedy deletion nomination of User:Skidpatch/sandbox
Hello Skidpatch,

I wanted to let you know that I just tagged User:Skidpatch/sandbox for deletion, because it seems to be promotional, rather than an encyclopedia article.

If you feel that the article shouldn't be deleted and want more time to work on it, you can [//en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=&action=edit&section=new&preload=Template:Hangon_preload&preloadtitle=This+page+should+not+be+speedy+deleted+because...+ contest this deletion], but please don't remove the speedy deletion tag from the top.

You can leave a note on my talk page if you have questions.

Hello Skidpatch. The nature of your edits gives the impression you have an undisclosed financial stake in promoting a topic, and that 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:Skidpatch. 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, please do not edit further until you answer this message. –Ammarpad (talk) 10:37, 14 September 2018 (UTC)

Dear Ammarpad, thank you for your notice and please accept my apologies for late reply. I still find it very complicated to communicate here. With this answer I am stating that I am NOT directly or indirectly compensated for my edits. I am just a former insider of the field who now has enough time and knowledge where to find the facts that need to be put into encyclopedia. My first article is about the company that I was working for many years. The information and the logo was provided by its director Ms. Daiva Adomaviciene. Kindly please advise what steps to be taken nezt to get it published. Many thanks in advance. Skidpatch (talk) 14:55, 18 September 2018 (UTC)
