Creating a post and declaring COI

The Wikimedia Foundation's Terms of Use require that editors disclose their "employer, client, and affiliation" with respect to any paid contribution; see WP:PAID. For advice about reviewing paid contributions, see WP:COIRESPONSE.

[[User:{{{1}}}|{{{1}}}]] ([[User talk:{{{1}}}|talk]] · [[Special:Contribs/{{{1}}}|contribs]]) has been paid by unknown.

{{Connected contributor (paid)}} should only be used on talk pages.

I get the above when I create the artcile in the sandbox. In draft mode.

But what exactly am I supposed to enter then in the main post? Wikictn42 (talk) 21:59, 29 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

This user, in accordance with the Wikimedia Foundation's Terms of Use, discloses that they have been paid by name of employer on behalf of name of client for their contributions to Wikipedia.

Ok it's the above I think.

Now I get the below:

Incorrect template usage. Please use {{connected contributor (paid)}} instead..

K, what exactly must I type?

The template's page Template:Connected contributor (paid) gives information for usage of this template. If you have further questions, I'd recommend you ask at Wikipedia:Teahouse as I am not knowledgeable in their usage, only their syntax.
