Hello Pentashantha. 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:Pentashantha. The template {{Paid}} can be used for this purpose – e.g. in the form: {{paid|user=Pentashantha|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. -- Ponyo^{bons mots} 17:15, 26 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

That is not correct. If you are talking about CollegeDekho, I created it out of my interest. Now it is upto deletion. Similiar articles about many companies and people exist in Wikipedia. Let me try to clean the mess. Pentashantha (talk) 17:18, 26 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

You have been blocked indefinitely from editing for WP:UPE and obvious socking. There is checkuser evidence which confirms you are editing from a range rife with paid editing and abuse of multiple accounts.

If you think there are good reasons for being unblocked, please read the guide to appealing blocks, then add the following text below the block notice on your talk page: {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}}.  Ponyo^{bons mots} 18:07, 26 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

If anyone is reading this, this site is corrupted by admins who block those who raise voice against injustice. Elon Musk can you please buy this site and kick out these garbages. Pentashantha (talk) 18:31, 26 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
