Hello Vyanchevaarco. 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:Vyanchevaarco. The template {{
Paid}} can be used for this purpose – e.g. in the form: {{paid|user=Vyanchevaarco|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.

Hello, I'm
Deepfriedokra. I wanted to let you know that one or more of
your recent contributions to
Business Park Sofia 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.

Hello, Vyanchevaarco,
welcome to Wikipedia and thank you for
your contributions. Your editing pattern indicates that you may be using multiple accounts or coordinating editing with people outside Wikipedia, such as
Tefterche (
talk ·
contribs). Our
policy on multiple accounts usually does not allow this, and users who misuse multiple accounts may be
blocked from editing. If you operate multiple accounts directly or with the help of another person, please
disclose these connections. Thank you.

And, Seraphimblade would tell you no. You should take a look at the conflict of interest requirements. Specifically, paid editors should not be directly or creating articles about COI subjects in mainspace, but should instead have their proposed creations or edits reviewed by editors without a COI. For creation of a new article, you could do that by creating a draft and requesting review by articles for creation. But do mind what Deepfriedokra told you above—an article should primarily be based on material independent of its subject; that is, not press releases, interviews, material written by the organization or its affiliates, and so on. If there is not a substantial amount of material like that available about this subject, it is not appropriate to have an article about it. Seraphimblade Talk to me 20:18, 8 April 2024 (UTC)
