February 2024[edit]

Hello Clara0721. The nature of your edits, such as the one you made to WeRide, 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 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:Clara0721. The template ((Paid)) can be used for this purpose – e.g. in the form: ((paid|user=Clara0721|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. Annh07 (talk) 03:39, 1 February 2024 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Hello,Annh07. I think you must have misunderstood me, I don't get paid for editing. All the information I edited is the objective facts that have been reported form lots of media. At last, I want to know that how I can edit the information correctly, for the existing Wikipedia entry only stops at 2022, and I'd like to add "WeRide" history information for 2023. Thank you.

Hi Clara0721,
Thanks for your feedback. You have added promotional content at WeRide, so I want to clarify whether you have any connection to this subject or not. If you have a connection to the subject you are writing about then you have a conflict of interest. Please read WP:COI.
If you have no connection to the subject, you may continue to edit the article but may not add promotional material to the article. Please read WP:NOTADVERT, WP:SPAM. All content should be written from a neutral point of view. Please read WP:NPOV. Thank you. Annh07 (talk) 08:18, 1 February 2024 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Information icon Please do not add promotional material to Wikipedia, as you did to WeRide. While objective prose about beliefs, organisations, people, products or services is acceptable, Wikipedia is not a vehicle for soapboxing, advertising or promotion. Thank you.

Hi,Annh. I just replenished some subjective information according to authoritative medias and attached these medias' link to prove the objectivity of news. So you mean that I can’t add that links?
The history and finance about WeRide only stops at 2022, and my original intention is to supplement the relevant news in 2023. Please give me an answer and it would be best if you could give me a solution. Thank you. Clara0721 (talk) 02:19, 23 February 2024 (UTC)Reply[reply]
The content you have added to the article is promotional and reads like an advertisement (see WP:SPAM), it is not written in the formal tone expected of an encyclopedia article. All content should be written from a neutral point of view. Please read WP:NPOV. Thank you. Annh07 (talk) 04:24, 23 February 2024 (UTC)Reply[reply]
OK,thank you. I will reorganize my language. Clara0721 (talk) 06:05, 23 February 2024 (UTC)Reply[reply]
