Lark & Berry moved to draftspace

Thanks for your contributions to Lark & Berry. Unfortunately, I do not think it is ready for publishing at this time because it needs more sources to establish notability and it is a product of paid editing. I have converted your article to a draft which you can improve, undisturbed for a while.

Hello Pomisolomon. The nature of your edits, such as the one you made to Draft:Lark & Berry, 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:Pomisolomon. The template {{Paid}} can be used for this purpose – e.g. in the form: {{paid|user=Pomisolomon|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.

Your history of editing whereby you made some perfunctory edits to WP:PGAME the ability to create an article directly, and then your first substantive edit was a promotionaly-worded aticle about a company that relies on sponsored content, press releases, and is overall refbombed shows that you are a paid editor. —Alalch E. 12:51, 20 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Discospinster Hi, you've seen this article, which I've draftified. What's your opinion here? —Alalch E. 12:54, 20 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

It's likely that there's some kind of conflict but it doesn't completely bar the editor from creating the article, we just have to keep an eye out for promotional content. Many of the sources cited are PR in some form or another, but there are a couple of independent sources. I think there needs to be more though. ... discospinster _talk 21:34, 20 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for your contributions to Lark & Berry. Unfortunately, I do not think it is ready for publishing at this time because it needs more sources to establish notability, it is promotional and reads like an advertisement and you may have a possible Conflict of Interest. I have converted your article to a draft which you can improve, undisturbed for a while.
