User talk:Vkaralewich

Hey Vkaralewich! I noticed you started working​on a new page. Before you work too hard on it, remember that Wikipedia is only going to accept entries on notable subjects. That is, if no one outside of where you live has ever heard of that business, and they've never been mentioned on a reliable source, your article might not make it. If you need help with that, just type, and don't hesitate to leave a message on my talk page! Aamri2 (talk) 21:59, 14 May 2017 (UTC)

Hello Vkaralewich. 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 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 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:Vkaralewich. 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) 23:52, 28 March 2024 (UTC)


 * Hi I am not being paid!! Vkaralewich (talk) 16:52, 29 March 2024 (UTC)
 * You claimed that the professional looking image of Mr. Muller is your own personal work. What is your connection to him? 331dot (talk) 17:58, 29 March 2024 (UTC)
 * I don't really know how to add an image to wikipedia so I googled his name and uploaded the image. I don't think there was any other option so I just did it that way Vkaralewich (talk) 18:00, 29 March 2024 (UTC)
 * Its Muller not Mueller! Vkaralewich (talk) 18:00, 29 March 2024 (UTC)
 * Apologies for the autocorrect error. You will need to immediately go to Commons and request deletion of the image, as his company website states All Rights Reserved. Images are.not relevant to the draft process anyway, which only considers the text and sources. Images can wait until the draft is accepted.
 * I ask again, what is your connection to him? 331dot (talk) 18:12, 29 March 2024 (UTC)
 * No connection but I live in Hoboken and see his ads all the time and drive past his ad in the Lincoln tunnel every day to work Vkaralewich (talk) 18:14, 29 March 2024 (UTC)
 * Okay, thanks for the clarification. Just request deletion of the image ASAP, please. 331dot (talk) 18:23, 29 March 2024 (UTC)
 * Ok again new to wikipedia but I added the speedy delete image to the line so hopefully that was the correct method of doing that Vkaralewich (talk) 18:32, 29 March 2024 (UTC)
