User talk:RichardNorthernWeb

August 2022

Hello RichardNorthernWeb. The nature of your edits, such as the one you made to Changsha Heijingang Industrial Company Limited, 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:RichardNorthernWeb. The template {{Paid}} can be used for this purpose – e.g. in the form: {{paid|user=RichardNorthernWeb|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. ^Complex/_Rational 00:56, 6 August 2022 (UTC)

Hi, I am new to this, I just thought that the BDDrill group would be a good page to make. I am in no way being compensated for the edit. I am a full time carer for my father who is disabled, and I receive a government allowance for doing so. Sorry if there is any confusion or problem.

Thanks for your quick response, nothing to worry about then. You might also like to read this page for further guidelines about article creation, and feel free to ask any questions you may have. Happy editing! ^Complex/_Rational 15:10, 6 August 2022 (UTC)

Changsha Heijingang Industrial Company Limited moved to draftspace

An article you recently created, Changsha Heijingang Industrial Company Limited, is not suitable as written to remain published. It needs additional references to show that the company meet's Wikipedia's notability guideline -- right now there's the company website, a company information page, and a press release (now a dead link), none of which demonstrate notability. I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of "Draft:" before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page. — Ingenuity (talk • contribs) 01:37, 23 August 2022 (UTC)
