Hello PavelKosov99. The nature of your edits, such as the one you made to Draft:Latafat Gardashova, 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:PavelKosov99. The template {{Paid}} can be used for this purpose – e.g. in the form: {{paid|user=PavelKosov99|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. Jay8g [VT•E] 20:07, 28 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I am neither paid or hired in any way. As I said mentioned she is my PhD supervisor and she asked me to create a page for her. It is literally a page for my "friend" if we can call it. PavelKosov99 (talk) 20:12, 28 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Someone asking you to create a page for them is a blatant COI, and the fact that it's your supervisor means that it would likely cross the line into paid editing. Jay8g [VT•E] 20:19, 28 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]
I assure you that there is no paid editing. I suppose it is not prohibited to create a page for your famous friend for free. Also, I did not say "simple" supervisor, she is my scientific supervisor. So again saying that there is no paid editing. The same page was created for our native Azerbaijani language as well as additionally Russian, and I hope the same page can exist in English as well. Also, I hope the image won't be deleted as it was taken from the open website of the university where the person is working. That image has no licensing and shared openly on the website of the university. You can check all references if you want. PavelKosov99 (talk) 20:26, 28 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Latafat Gardashova moved to draftspace

Thanks for your contributions to Latafat Gardashova. Unfortunately, I do not think it is ready for publishing at this time because you may have a possible Conflict of Interest and You have an admitted conflict of interest. Please submit the article through the WP:AFC process. In fact, your relationship might even mean you are a WP:UPE editor, since payment need not be in terms of money.. I have converted your article to a draft which you can improve, undisturbed for a while.

Please see more information at Help:Unreviewed new page. When the article is ready for publication, please click on the "Submit the draft for review!" button at the top of the page OR move the page back. Onel5969 TT me 10:42, 26 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I do not think you have any right to delete an article about public persona as vice-rector of university. How should I prove that I am not paid? Now I started to think that you are paid to keep removing an article about famous person in my country. The article is about nationally recognized scientist and vice-rector of one of the biggest universities in our country. So now we are prohibited from publishing articles about famous people if we know them personally? This is unfair and outrageous. I clearly stated I have not received payment or any kind of awards. So now students cannot share articles that include country wide known facts about their rector, professor, etc.? It is a joke!!! I am asking you to investigate the situation before doing anything. While you are doing your research it would be preferable to return the article back as it has 2 other languages and requires English. PavelKosov99 (talk) 11:08, 26 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]
