I have removed multiple citations you have inserted across multiple articles, as it appears you are doing so not to improve article content but to promote specific author(s) or journals. Please see Wikipedia:Spam#Citation spam for more information. Your actions constitute spamming, and this is not tolerated at Wikipedia. You are welcome to edit with the intent to improve content, but Wikipedia is not a tool for search engine optimization or to promote your own interests. Continuing such behaviour may result in loss of editing privileges (being blocked from editing). Thank you for your cooperation. --Hadal (talk) 20:00, 7 June 2023 (UTC)

I am a consultant doctor and Assistant Professor of Medicine with almost 15 years of clinical and 5 years of teaching experience. Since Wikipedia is my favourite channel and accessed widely, so I want my work (which is published in scopus, web of science and pubmed indexed journal) to be read by the doctors and researchers, without any financial benifit (what financial benifit could be gotten from this?). If you think my work is contradictory to the evidence, then you are justified to remove it.

Managing a conflict of interest

Hello Hayyan Khan. 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:Hayyan Khan. The template {{Paid}} can be used for this purpose – e.g. in the form: {{paid|user=Hayyan Khan|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. --Hadal (talk) 20:00, 7 June 2023 (UTC)

In other words, you have an inherent conflict of interest and should not edit articles related to your research. This includes the addition of citations to your own research and papers. You are free to edit in areas unrelated to your research; or, you may request edits to articles relating to your research via Wikipedia:Edit requests. However, in the latter scenario you will not be making the decision re: whether to include your text. Thank you for your cooperation. --Hadal (talk) 17:51, 8 June 2023 (UTC)

OK thanks for your support. Hayyan Khan (talk) 18:51, 8 June 2023 (UTC)
