Hello, my name is Paulette, and I'm new here, and trying to create a musician page, using the musician infobox, and I was able to successfully add all of the information. But, I'm not able to add wikilinks inside the infobox, and wanted to see if you would please help me? Paulettepassionwilliams (talk) 07:36, 17 December 2022 (UTC)Reply

Hello Paulettepassionwilliams. 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:Paulettepassionwilliams. The template {{Paid}} can be used for this purpose – e.g. in the form: {{paid|user=Paulettepassionwilliams|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) 09:11, 17 December 2022 (UTC)Reply

Absolutely not, I'm not being paid for my edits, as I'm actually clueless of how to make edits; my reason for reaching out for help Paulettepassionwilliams (talk) 09:27, 17 December 2022 (UTC)Reply
How did you come to edit about this musician? It doesn't seem like you picked them at random; your writing style suggests a deeper connection than just knowledge, and you state you are a writer by profession. 331dot (talk) 09:29, 17 December 2022 (UTC)Reply
All of his info is public information, on either all of his social media platforms (Twitter, Facebook, and IG) or music platforms (Spotify, Tidal, Soundcloud, Apple Music, YouTube, etc. Paulettepassionwilliams (talk) 10:07, 17 December 2022 (UTC)Reply
That doesn't answer my question. Note that social media platforms are not acceptable for establishing notability. 331dot (talk) 10:08, 17 December 2022 (UTC)Reply
He has more than Social media outlets, that provides lucrative information about him, to include , bit not limited to he's been in two popular movies, he goes all over the globe performing. HE'S VERY POPULAR. Two news companies have done stories on him. Plus, out of all the rap artist in the DMV, that have made it big, I can honestly say that he has done more foe our city then the ones who have a huge record label behind them, and he's still independent, and thriving and flourishing simultaneously. He is well known everywhere, loved and appreciated trust me. Paulettepassionwilliams (talk) 10:17, 17 December 2022 (UTC)Reply
I'm afraid that being "well known everywhere, loved and appreciated" does NOT equate to being notable in Wikipedia's terms. Theroadislong (talk) 10:26, 17 December 2022 (UTC)Reply
Is that to say that I shouldn't bother to continue? Or would you please give me a chance to show you his work and accomplishments? Paulettepassionwilliams (talk) 10:33, 17 December 2022 (UTC)Reply
You still have not answered my question. I will block you for advertising unless in your next edit you give me a straight answer. Wikipedia is not for merely documenting someone's accomplishments. We summarize what independent reliable sources with significant coverage have chosen on their own to say about (in this case) a musician, showing how they meet Wikipedia's special definition of a notable musician. Please review that definition, and tell us how this musician meets it. 331dot (talk) 10:54, 17 December 2022 (UTC)Reply
Do you have any relationship with the account Dcpassion2009? 331dot (talk) 10:57, 17 December 2022 (UTC)Reply
You said "out of all the rap artist in the DMV...". Is he in the Department of Motor Vehicles? And... "lucrative" means "monetarily valuable", so that "lucrative information" comment is a bit confusing.... David10244 (talk) 12:48, 17 December 2022 (UTC)Reply

Thank you for the message, I looked at the content contained in the link, but I couldn't grasp exactly what you were trying to convey. Can you please elaborate for me? Paulettepassionwilliams (talk) 10:10, 17 December 2022 (UTC)Reply
Your paragraph Determined to be successful, with his music, trucking and acting career, Ceosonson used any money he ever received, to buy the bare necessities; for his first in-home studio, where he could record himself at leisure, and pay for the engineering, mixing and mastering himself, in stead of taking a chance at finding himself in situations, that weren't fruitful nor positive, and would unfortunately lead him to a predictable future; in 2010 he began to reevaluate his life. This allowed him to start focusing his time and money into his creative passion, and over the past twelve years, he has done really well with learning how to not only brand himself, but he also has his very own independent record label, Back-N-Forth Entertainment is totally unsourced and written in a breathless magazine style, on Wikipedia we only report the dry facts that have been covered in reliable sources in significant detail. 10:14, 17 December 2022 (UTC)
