User talk:Woodidoo

May 2020
Hello Woodidoo. The nature of your edits, such as the one you made to Howard Panes, 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 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. 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:Woodidoo. 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.  scope_creep Talk  15:20, 19 May 2020 (UTC)


 * Hi Scope creep, I'm responding to indicate that I am not being compensated for editing. I apologize if it appears that way, and I am very willing to learn and fix my way of editing so I can better contribute to the community. Any guidance you can provide is extremely appreciated. Thanks! Woodidoo (talk) 07:35, 22 May 2020 (UTC)
 * That's fine. You've made a declaration that your not being paid for work. Excellent. scope_creep Talk  10:19, 22 May 2020 (UTC)

You can [//en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special:Mypage/sandbox&action=edit&preload=Template:User_Sandbox/preload create your own personal sandbox] for use any time. It's perfect for working on bigger projects. Then for easy access in the future, you can put  on your userpage.

Howard Panes
Hi Please do not revert that above redirect back to the article. There was a clear consensus less than 6 weeks ago at the Afd that the person was non-notable. If you want to recreate the article, please recreate as a Draft article and get it reviewed as a Draft article. Go to WP:DRAFT and start from there. Once it is finished, submit it and somebody will review it. If you need help, give me a shout, or go to the WP:TEAHOUSE.  scope_creep Talk  14:48, 28 May 2020 (UTC)

Hello, I'm Scope creep. I wanted to let you know that one or more of your recent contributions to Harry Heth have been undone because they appeared to be promotional. Advertising and using Wikipedia as a "soapbox" are against Wikipedia policy and not permitted; Wikipedia articles should be written objectively, using independent sources, and from a neutral perspective. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about Wikipedia. Thank you.  scope_creep Talk  13:49, 30 June 2020 (UTC)
