Please do not remove maintenance templates from pages on Wikipedia, as you did to Ola Abu Alghaib, without resolving the problem that the template refers to, or giving a valid reason for the removal in the edit summary. Your removal of this template does not appear constructive, and has been reverted. Thank you. David Biddulph (talk) 10:08, 4 January 2023 (UTC)


 * The citations have been included, the article has been revised, and all the external links have been compiled with Wikipedia regulations; each of them is an official website; therefore, the maintenance templates are not correct with the article, and there is a mistake for placing this maintenance.

 * You need to read the advice on external links and the WP:Manual of Style. The maintenance templates are, of course, appropriate. - David Biddulph (talk) 10:15, 4 January 2023 (UTC)

Hello Veronikacuesta. 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:Veronikacuesta. 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. 331dot (talk) 10:14, 4 January 2023 (UTC)


 * I am not compensated financially, directly, or indirectly for any of my edits. Veronikacuesta (talk) 10:17, 4 January 2023 (UTC)
 * Do you have any financial or professional relationship with the subject of your edits? "Paid editing" is not limited to specific payment for edits. 331dot (talk) 10:20, 4 January 2023 (UTC)
 * No, I don't. I am currently editing United Nations pages as per my interest in international organizations. Veronikacuesta (talk) 10:28, 4 January 2023 (UTC)

 Your account has been blocked indefinitely for advertising or promotion and violating the Wikimedia Foundation's Terms of Use. This is because you have been making promotional edits to topics in which you have a financial stake, yet you have failed to adhere to the mandatory paid editing disclosure requirements. Paid advocacy is a form of conflict of interest (COI) editing which involves being compensated by a person, group, company or organization to use Wikipedia to promote their interests. Undisclosed paid advocacy is strictly prohibited. Using this site for advertising or promotion is contrary to the purpose of Wikipedia. If you think there are good reasons why you should be unblocked, please read our guide to appealing blocks to understand more about unblock requests, and then add the text  at the end of your user talk page. For that request to be considered, you must: 331dot (talk) 10:51, 4 January 2023 (UTC) I have decided to block you because based on your username I don't believe your denial. 331dot (talk) 10:53, 4 January 2023 (UTC)
 * Confirm that you have read and understand the Terms of Use and paid editing disclosure requirements.
 * State clearly how you are being compensated for your edits, and describe any affiliation or conflict of interest you might have with the subjects you have written about.
 * Describe how you intend to edit such topics in the future.



I would also note that an IP user edited the article at issue before you, and that user claimed to be in communication with the subject. If that was you, you indeed have a clear conflict of interest. 331dot (talk) 11:29, 4 January 2023 (UTC)


 * This was not me. Veronikacuesta (talk) 12:01, 4 January 2023 (UTC)
 * Very well, but the most I can say about this is that a simple Google search of your username suggests to me that you are not being honest with us. If you aren't paid by "egal labor manager" to edit about this person, then don't claim you are. 331dot (talk) 12:04, 4 January 2023 (UTC)
 * https://www.linkedin.com/in/verónica-cuesta-5854a547/?originalSubdomain=es which google search? Why am I been discriminated? This is a google search. Veronikacuesta (talk) 12:06, 4 January 2023 (UTC)
 * I am not paid by anyone to edit this content. This is what I don't understand why I am been blocked. None is paying me at all to edit anything. You have asked for my company and my name so still do not understand why I am blocked. Veronikacuesta (talk) 12:19, 4 January 2023 (UTC)
 * How did you come to edit about this mid level UN official? 331dot (talk) 12:21, 4 January 2023 (UTC)
 * Because today is Braille Day and I am interested in disability inclusion, therefore I have been reading a lot about disability rights activities, programs, and International Organizations, and I want to help with the work they do; her old profile was not matching her biography at all, and I was very surprised this was not up to date. I am also in the law field so CRPD and disability laws and human rights are also part of my interest. Why is this relevant? Veronikacuesta (talk) 12:24, 4 January 2023 (UTC)
 * I was also looking to create a page for Bio Mr Gopal Mitra - European Disability Forum among other officials I found through the European Disability Forum. Veronikacuesta (talk) 12:27, 4 January 2023 (UTC)
 * Some people can not write or edit the pages themselves because of their disabilities; that is why I wanted to help on my free time. Veronikacuesta (talk) 12:33, 4 January 2023 (UTC)
