June 2023 edit

 

Hello FrankieTaylorGT. 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:FrankieTaylorGT. The template {{Paid}} can be used for this purpose – e.g. in the form: {{paid|user=FrankieTaylorGT|employer=InsertName|client=InsertName}}. 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) 10:06, 29 June 2023 (UTC)Reply

Hi, I am an employee of the Gardens Trust and have now added this disclosure to my user page. I'd like to add some more detail to this page about our history and current operations - do I add all of these changes to the talk page as one single comment?

Thank you for disclosing. In general, you should avoid directly editing about your organization but instead may propose edits on the article talk page(Talk:The Gardens Trust) in the form of an edit request(click for instructions) so that independent editors may review them. I would suggest that such requests will be more likely to be reviewed if they are relatively small requests; propose one or two smaller edits at a time instead of one large edit. 331dot (talk) 10:19, 29 June 2023 (UTC)Reply

Concern regarding User:FrankieTaylorGT/sandbox edit

Your draft article, User:FrankieTaylorGT/sandbox edit

 

Hello, FrankieTaylorGT. It has been over six months since you last edited the Articles for Creation submission or Draft page you started, "sandbox".

In accordance with our policy that Wikipedia is not for the indefinite hosting of material deemed unsuitable for the encyclopedia mainspace, the draft has been deleted. When you plan on working on it further and you wish to retrieve it, you can request its undeletion. An administrator will, in most cases, restore the submission so you can continue to work on it.

Thanks for your submission to Wikipedia, and happy editing. Liz Read! Talk! 04:27, 3 September 2023 (UTC)Reply
