Paid/COI
[edit]Hello Camila Biazioli. The nature of your edits, such as the one you made to Votorantim Group, 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:Camila Biazioli. The template {{Paid}} can be used for this purpose – e.g. in the form: {{paid|user=Camila Biazioli|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. --VVikingTalkEdits 15:23, 27 October 2022 (UTC)
- Hey Viewmont Viking. Thank you for the clarification, I wasn't aware of this process as I'm not very experienced with Wikipedia. I'll post the disclosure on my page once I'm a direct Votorantim employee, thank you for the information. It's not my intention to promote the company by using the Wikipedia article, but I understand I have biases. My main concern is to keep the information as updated as possible. I'll learn how to propose changes through the talk page of the article, and will not further edit it directly. Once again, thank you for all this information, it was very helpful. Also, could you please help me with one more question: if we launch a new brand/company, how can suggest to the Wiki community that a new article could be created to represent it (as per the recommendation that we shouldn't do it ourselves)? Thanks again! Camila Biazioli (talk) 17:13, 27 October 2022 (UTC)
