[edit]Hello Kavya Gowri Kg. 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 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:Kavya Gowri Kg. The template {{Paid}} can be used for this purpose – e.g. in the form: {{paid|user=Kavya Gowri Kg|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. 331dot (talk) 14:05, 30 September 2022 (UTC)
- Hi Team, thanks let me know about the paid contribution, this is not a paid contribution. I am doing it on my own personal interest as this actor is very good friend of mine and he is great actor that i have seen. So this is my small contribution in order make this person known by everyone. His story and his works should be published through our Wikipedia to the viewers. Kindly please help me create an article for this actor. Jai Bala. Kavya Gowri Kg (talk) 03:46, 2 October 2022 (UTC)
- If you are not paid, okay. You do have a conflict of interest, please read WP:COI for information on how to declare that. Note that "this is my small contribution in order make this person known by everyone" is a promotional purpose; our only interest on Wikipedia is in summarizing what independent reliable sources with significant coverage have chosen on their own to say about a topic. Please follow the advice given to you at the Help Desk. 331dot (talk) 07:22, 2 October 2022 (UTC)
