User talk:KLG-DCPR

Hello KLG-DCPR. 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:KLG-DCPR. The template {{Paid}} can be used for this purpose – e.g. in the form: {{paid|user=KLG-DCPR|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) 11:12, 12 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Hello again. I provided that disclosure using that form, but Wiki rejected it and required me to use the form:

KLG, in accordance with the Wikimedia Foundation's Terms of Use, discloses that they have been paid by {{{employer}}} for their contributions to Wikipedia.

form. I believe this is has been resolved. KLG-DCPR (talk) 13:36, 19 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Welcome to Wikipedia. I noticed that your username, "KLG-DCPR", may not meet Wikipedia's username policy because It seems to be the name of your firm. If you believe that your username does not violate our policy, please leave a note here explaining why. As an alternative, you may ask for a change of username by completing the form at Special:GlobalRenameRequest, or you may simply create a new account for editing. Thank you. 331dot (talk) 11:15, 12 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Please let me know which specific rule that this account is allegedly in violation, so I may provide a fuller response. Thank you. KLG-DCPR (talk) 13:34, 19 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Your username seems to be an abbreviated version of the name of your firm, per the

username policy usernames cannot be that of any organization, the name must indicate the account is operated by a single individual(real names are not required, just something unique). It is permitted to identify one's self as part of an organization, such as "Desirée of KLG". If that's what you are doing, please say so and disregard this inquiry. 331dot (talk) 15:28, 19 July 2022 (UTC)[reply

There is currently a discussion at Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents regarding an issue with which you may have been involved. The thread is KLG-DCPR. Thank you. Lemonaka (talk) 20:15, 10 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

KLG-DCPR, you don't appear to have looked in at the noticeboard section linked above, so you may not realize that Robert McClenon created Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Brian Meshkin (2nd nomination) using your statement as the nomination statement, since that is what you appeared to intend. Yngvadottir (talk) 09:23, 11 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I see that now. Thanks Avery much for the notification! KLG-DCPR (talk) 13:18, 11 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
