Welcome![edit]

Hello, Berryblues20, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions.

I noticed that one of the first articles you edited appears to be dealing with a topic with which you may have a conflict of interest. In other words, you may find it difficult to write about that topic in a neutral and objective way, because you are, work for, or represent, the subject of that article. Your recent contributions may have already been undone for this very reason.

To reduce the chances of your contributions being undone, you might like to draft your revised article before submission, and then ask me or another editor to proofread it. See our help page on userspace drafts for more details. If the page you created has already been deleted from Wikipedia, but you want to save the content from it to use for that draft, don't hesitate to ask anyone from this list and they will copy it to your user page.

One rule we do have in connection with conflicts of interest is that accounts used by more than one person will unfortunately be blocked from editing. Wikipedia generally does not allow editors to have usernames which imply that the account belongs to a company or corporation. If you have a username like this, you should request a change of username or create a new account. (A name that identifies the user as an individual within a given organization may be OK.)

In addition, if you receive, or expect to receive, compensation for any contribution you make, you must disclose your employer, client, and affiliation to comply with our terms of use and our policy on paid editing.

Here are some pages that you might find helpful:

I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Please sign your messages on talk pages using four tildes (~~~~); this will automatically insert your username and the date. If you need help, visit the Teahouse, check out Wikipedia:Questions, ask me on my talk page, or ask your question on this page and then place {{Help me}} before the question. Again, welcome! 🇺🇦 FiddleTimtrent FaddleTalk to me 🇺🇦 14:23, 2 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

July 2024[edit]

Information icon

Hello Berryblues20. 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 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:Berryblues20. The template {{Paid}} can be used for this purpose – e.g. in the form: {{paid|user=Berryblues20|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. 🇺🇦 FiddleTimtrent FaddleTalk to me 🇺🇦 14:22, 2 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Greetings Timtrent, no one is paying me for editing wikipedia, I am doing it on my own initiative. Thank you! ---- Berryblues20 (talk) 15:30, 2 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Do you have a conflict of interest with LaCinetek, whether you're being directly compensated for your edits or not? The draft was originally created by User:LaCinetek, an obvious COI, and then you joined and immediately started editing the draft. In fact, the majority of your edits relate to LaCinetek. Your edits give me the impression that you have some sort of relationship with the company. C F A 💬 15:56, 2 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
It was my previous name, as I tought it was supposed to be the name of the page! I have no conflict with them, huge fan of what they do and can't believe they were not on wikipedia yet :)) ---- Berryblues20 (talk) 18:09, 2 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I see no issue with this, however, for the future, please know that we have a "one editor one account" rule, though there are certain exceptions.
Thank you for making it clear that you are not editing for reward. 🇺🇦 FiddleTimtrent FaddleTalk to me 🇺🇦 18:58, 2 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.

You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on LaCinetek, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page seems to be unambiguous advertising which only promotes a company, group, product, service, person, or point of view and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become encyclopedic. Please read the guidelines on spam and Wikipedia:FAQ/Organizations for more information.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nominationbyvisiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator. voorts (talk/contributions) 23:08, 5 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

July 2024[edit]

To be clear, since you seem to have received some inaccurate information above: It is not permitted to make new accounts to evade a block. If you want to edit Wikipedia further, you must request an unblock at User talk:LaCinetek according to the instructions there. While that account remains blocked, you (as in "you", the person who operated the account) may not edit Wikipedia under any account or anonymously.
