Edits on Bunjwah

Hi, upon your recent edits, I found that you had removed all the citations from article Bunjwah which is not good at all. Copy editing means checking grammar and style. You can't remove the valid citations on the name of copy-editing. Thank You. — The Chunky urf Al Kashmiri ^{(Speak🗣️ or Write✍️)} 04:24, 9 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Article moved to draft space

Editors with a conflict of interest, as you have, should not be writing articles in main space. I have moved your article to Draft:Rishi Kumar where you can improve on it and submit it for review.

You are also required to declare your affiliation with Rishi Kumar. See the message below for more information. ~Anachronist (talk) 17:06, 22 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Mandatory paid editing disclosure

Hello Navya Vargese. The nature of your edits, such as the one you made to Draft:Rishi Kumar, 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:Navya Vargese. The template {{Paid}} can be used for this purpose – e.g. in the form: {{paid|user=Navya Vargese|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. ~Anachronist (talk) 17:04, 22 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@Anachronist:I am not receiving any compensation, direct or indirect, for creating this page. I am, however, an unpaid intern (technically a volunteer) at Rishi Kumar's campaign team. Since I have no financial obligation or any other obligation to promote this topic, is this still something I need to disclose? What should I do from here?Navya Vargese (talk) 18:05, 22 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

It is sufficient to disclose your association with Rishi Kumar. Thanks. Please review Wikipedia:Conflict of interest, because you have a conflict of interest with this subject. ~Anachronist (talk) 21:42, 22 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
