Your draft article, Draft:Alabama Council of Teachers of Mathematics

Hello, Mhall7265. It has been over six months since you last edited your WP:AFC draft article submission, entitled "Alabama Council of Teachers of Mathematics".

The page will shortly be deleted. If you plan on editing the page to address the issues raised when it was declined and resubmit it, simply edit the submission and remove the {{db-afc}} or {{db-g13}} code. Please note that Articles for Creation is not for indefinite hosting of material deemed unsuitable for the encyclopedia mainspace.

If your submission has already been deleted by the time you get there, and you want to retrieve it, you can request its undeletion by one of two methods (don't do both): 1) follow the instructions at WP:REFUND/G13, or 2) copy this code: {{subst:Refund/G13|Draft:Alabama Council of Teachers of Mathematics}}, paste it in the edit box at this link, and click "Save page". An administrator will in most cases undelete the submission.

Thanks for your submission to Wikipedia, and happy editing. Calliopejen1 (talk) 03:16, 29 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Paid editing

Hello Mhall7265. 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:Mhall7265. The template {{Paid}} can be used for this purpose – e.g. in the form: {{paid|user=Mhall7265|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. --Hammersoft (talk) 18:06, 26 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Hi there. I work for the Office of Radiation Control under ADPH and did a Bing search for the address of one of our health departments when I noticed the large seal on the right of the results page. Every social media source I check had the correct seal or logo except wiki. So I decided to change the seal to our new seal so it appears correctly in searches as well as add our logo. There’s no conflict of interest…just making the state agency is represented correctly with our proper seal.

Does this answer your question?

Thanks. -Michael Mhall7265 (talk) 18:30, 26 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

It does, but out of an abundance of caution you should add {{paid|user=Mhall7265|employer=InsertName|client=InsertName}} (with the appropriate replacements) to your userpage. You should also read our conflict of interest guideline. --Hammersoft (talk) 19:58, 26 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Copy that. Thanks! I’ll take care of such when I get home this evening.

Take care! Mhall7265 (talk) 21:08, 26 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
