Hello Ppushko. The nature of your edits, such as the one you made to Draft:Medigen, Inc. (Frederick, Maryland, USA), 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:Ppushko. The template {{Paid}} can be used for this purpose – e.g. in the form: {{paid|user=Ppushko|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. DoubleGrazing (talk) 07:06, 14 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, thank you for reviewing my draft and commenting. I am employed by Medigen as a senior employee, but not paid or required by Medigen specifically to post the article on Wikipedia. The article does not promote any services, only informs readers about the company. The work by Medigen is referenced in Wikipedia article " Attenuated vaccine - Wikipedia " (reference 5), which can be added to the draft as an additional reference. Let me know how to proceed, or feel free to edit the draft according to Wikipedia regulations. Any info appreciated. Ppushko (talk) 13:13, 14 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you for confirming that you are an employee of this organisation. You are therefore automatically covered by our paid-editing rules, regardless of whether you are explicitly paid to edit this article or Wikipedia more generally. You must therefore formally disclose your conflict of interest, by placing the {{paid}} template on your own user page User:Ppushko. Thank you, -- DoubleGrazing (talk) 15:52, 14 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I added "paid" template to User:Ppushko page. Hope this is what is needed. If that is acceptable, I would like to revise draft by including additional reference to Wikipedia page as indicated in the previous message. Ppushko (talk) 16:57, 14 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
