WP:PAID tag (May 2021)

[edit]

@Valens Connor: Valens Connor (talk · contribs) who has edited this page extensively appears to be someone connected with the Valens Global. Valens Global is the company that this individual is the CEO of. This appears to be a blatant violation of WP:PAID. Connor, please explain why you are editing this page about your boss without disclosing your WP:PAID relationship and how you will deal with this massive WP:COI.

@Toddst1: Thank you for your question. As indicated by my account handle, I am clearly employed by Valens Global. My edits were undertaken on behalf of Valens Global for the purpose of updating old or broken links and correcting information that was not factually accurate (e.g., Dr. Gartenstein-Ross's place of birth). My edits were not designed to make the page more laudatory of Dr. Gartenstein-Ross (e.g., I did not delete the criticism of the policy recommendations in Bin Laden's Legacy). My apologies for the COI issue, which was a product of my own lack of knowledge with Wikipedia's rules rather than any ill intention, and which I am happy to correct. I believe the edits I made are objective and accurate. Valens Connor (talk) 15:41, 26 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
