Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. Your user page may not meet Wikipedia's user page guidelines. It is intended for basic information about yourself, your interests and goals as they relate to editing Wikipedia, as well as disclosures of conflicts of interest and paid editing. Although a lot of freedom is allowed in personalizing your user page, it is not:

an encyclopedia article (and should not be styled to look like one)
a workspace for a draft article
a personal website, blog, or social media site
a space for self-promotion or other advertising
a CV, resumé or lengthy autobiography

The user page guidelines have additional information on what is and what is not considered acceptable content. Please use your user sandbox or the draft article space to practice editing or to create new articles. Thank you. — rsjaffe 🗣️ 21:57, 13 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, Gspencer200419, 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 Hannibalise (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. — rsjaffe 🗣️ 22:01, 13 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hello? I appreciate your feedback, I’m the secretary who wrote the statement. Sre you suggesting I delete the last article? Gspencer200419 (talk) 22:04, 13 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

My apologies for the misunderstanding. Has everything been resolved?

Only one of you should write the article. Use your user sandbox to draft the article. You also need to disclose your relationship to the subject of the article. I'll add a note below this one about that, as you are a paid contributor due to being employed by the subject of the article. — rsjaffe 🗣️ 22:44, 13 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hello Gspencer200419. 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 employed (or being compensated in any way) by a person, group, company or organization to promote their interests. Paid advocacy on Wikipedia must be disclosed even if you have not specifically been asked to edit Wikipedia. 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:Gspencer200419. The template {{Paid}} can be used for this purpose – e.g. in the form: {{paid|user=Gspencer200419|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. — rsjaffe 🗣️ 22:45, 13 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

For clarification; I’m talking about myself not for anyone else Hannibalise (talk) 22:48, 13 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

OK, use your own account to write the article, then. That way it's clear that it is an autobiography. — rsjaffe 🗣️ 22:52, 13 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Ok no problem this is my account.
