Hello LisaBGiamporcaro. 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:LisaBGiamporcaro. The template {{Paid}} can be used for this purpose – e.g. in the form: {{paid|user=LisaBGiamporcaro|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. --- Possibly (talk) 06:45, 28 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Please disclose any connection to the the topics you are editing, e.g. Museo Benini.--- Possibly (talk) 06:46, 28 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Hi there, I hope this is the right place to respond. Thank you Possibly for your feedback and I do understand your concern. I truly enter this space with the best ethics, I am not being paid by anyone to write or edit anything for any reason - I'm (generally) barely making any money at all :) Part of the service work I do in the arts is to tell the world, in as many ways as I can, about highly producing older artists who are underknown in the historical canon of art. Artists who have created tirelessly over the span of their lives but who haven't chased fame through mainstream channels, who have used their art in service to the public. Museo Benini is in my geographic area, I just submitted an article about it in addition to edits where I added it to other applicable pages. It was an easier article to start with than a page about the artist which I hope to submit as well. I am just learning the Wikipedia platform and, I'm sure, will make many mistakes along the way. My editing contributions have been limited so far because of time and relegated to the realm of art because that is where my interest is concentrated. Please let me know if I'm good to proceed! Because of my limited but growing engagement with Wikipedia, I have had to become articulate about its value and to advocate for that value when the people I'm writing about don't understand. Part of what I explain about the value of 'existing' on Wikipedia is that, to me, claiming space on Wikipedia is part of an in-depth process of saying "I exist" in the etherworld. Wikipedia does not define a career, but because of its encyclopedic orientation, it is a solid triangulation point when used to map a career in a way the world can follow and access. It feels valuable and important to claim space for these artists on Wikipedia. I will read through all of the links you sent in your welcome and have tried to do my homework when it comes to this platform. As you can imagine, the sheer volume of ingestible information can be daunting to a newbie. LisaBGiamporcaro (talk) 14:43, 28 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for clarifying that you are not being paid by Benini to edit here. Your answer is quite long and I cannot see a clear answer to the main question: are you connected to him or the museum in any other way? I'll leave the COI template below so you can make the proper declaration if necessary. --- Possibly (talk) 16:15, 28 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, LisaBGiamporcaro. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about on Wikipedia, you may have a conflict of interest (COI). Editors with a conflict of interest may be unduly influenced by their connection to the topic. See the conflict of interest guideline and FAQ for organizations for more information. We ask that you:

• avoid editing or creating articles about yourself, your family, friends, colleagues, company, organization or competitors;
• propose changes on the talk pages of affected articles (you can use the {{request edit}} template);
• disclose your conflict of interest when discussing affected articles (see Wikipedia:Conflict of interest#How to disclose a COI);
• avoid linking to your organization's website in other articles (see WP:Spam);
• do your best to comply with Wikipedia's content policies.

In addition, you are required by the Wikimedia Foundation's terms of use to disclose your employer, client, and affiliation with respect to any contribution which forms all or part of work for which you receive, or expect to receive, compensation. See Wikipedia:Paid-contribution disclosure.

Also, editing for the purpose of advertising, publicising, or promoting anyone or anything is not permitted. Thank you. --- Possibly (talk) 16:18, 28 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
