User talk:Jaydixit

September 2021

Hello Jaydixit. The nature of your edits, such as the one you made to Diffeo (company), 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:Jaydixit. The template {{Paid}} can be used for this purpose – e.g. in the form: {{paid|user=Jaydixit|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. Justlettersandnumbers (talk) 18:37, 17 September 2021 (UTC)

Also, please clarify the nature of your relationship to Jrf, and in particular how you just happened to have a massive promotional screed about Diffeo ready to dump into our project two minutes after that editor started the page as a "test"? Thanks, Justlettersandnumbers (talk) 18:39, 17 September 2021 (UTC)

Justlettersandnumbers I don’t have a paid relationship with Diffeo (company) or Jrf.

I’m not paid to contribute to Wikipedia. As a writer and storyteller, I’m excited about Wikipedia as an amazing human achievement. As John noted in his response to your question, opportunities to create new high-quality articles don’t come along every day, so we worked together to gather citations. I organized the content with a neutral point of view, which was an interesting learning process.

I'm sorry to see you're upset about this contribution. I worked hard on putting the content into the style that Wikipedia requires in an offline draft, hence the large initial edit. It’s also been refined by a few other contributors.

Hopefully this resolves your concerns. I don't think the flag you added is warranted. If you could please remove it, I'd appreciate it. Jaydixit (talk) 01:55, 18 September 2021 (UTC)
