Hello Catherinetnguyen. 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 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 very 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 extremely 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:Catherinetnguyen. The template {{Paid}} can be used for this purpose – e.g. in the form: {{paid|user=Catherinetnguyen|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. Melcous (talk) 08:04, 20 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, I am not being directly or indirectly compensated for my edits. Catherinetnguyen (talk) 08:11, 20 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

If, as your user name indicates, you are an intern at the company you are writing about, you are considered by wikipedia to be an employee and you must abide by the above policies. - see WP:PAID#Meaning of "employer, client, and affiliation". Melcous (talk) 08:14, 20 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
I also note that you created your account, waited 6 days, then made exactly 10 edits in under an hour to receive WP:AUTOCONFIRMed status, and then created this promotional article, which suggests you knew exactly what you were doing. Please abide by the policies here or you will be blocked. Melcous (talk) 08:20, 20 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Okay, I will abide by the policy. After I add that to my user page, do I submit my page under the articles for creation?Catherinetnguyen (talk) 08:23, 20 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

As the above notice says, you must add that disclosure to your user page. You are also strongly discouraged from writing about the company you work for here. If you do choose to write about them, then yes, the only thing you can do is use the WP:AFC process. You must also disclose that you are being paid there, and I would suggest that you would need to do a fair bit of work on the article to make it less promotional before submitting it, because as it stands it is likely to be rejected for that reason. Thanks Melcous (talk) 08:25, 20 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
