May 2024[edit]

Hello 12.90.237.218. 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:12.90.237.218. The template {{Paid}} can be used for this purpose – e.g. in the form: {{paid|user=12.90.237.218|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. ElKevbo (talk) 01:54, 10 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Additionally, if you continue to use multiple accounts then you'll likely end up blocked from editing at all. ElKevbo (talk) 02:00, 10 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Who gives you the right to say that I am being paid. As I have stated I get nothing in return for editing this page. No compensation has been received from Johnson University. Their is nothing to disclose financially therefore your entire argument is void. 12.90.237.218 (talk) 02:23, 10 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Also, do you own Wikipedia? Are you being paid for compensation? Does the University of Delaware know you are barring legitimate edits of other institutions. 12.90.237.218 (talk) 02:24, 10 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
