A question about a possible connection to an article
[edit]I see that you have edited the article Getronics. Do you gave any kind of personal connection to Getronics? (For example do you work for Getronics?) JBW (talk) 21:47, 5 February 2025 (UTC)
- Hi,
- Yes, I'm the Global Marketing Operations Manager of Getronics. The article about our company haven't been updated for a while and it was featuring incorrect data (outdated services, incorrect leadership team, etc.). We are trying to correct those aspects and also generate new language versions.
- Best regards,
- Pepa 83.165.23.114 (talk) 08:57, 6 February 2025 (UTC)
- You are therefore a paid editor according to Wikipedia's definition, and must follow the provisions of the paid editing disclosure policy. Furthermore, if you are the person who was using the now-blocked account Getronics Communications, your edits would be considered block evasion.
- The Getronics article appears to have been edited extensively by editors who are employed by the company. You and your colleagues should not be editing this article directly, as you have an inherent conflict of interest. Your edits should be limited to making edit requests on the article talk page. Please note that we have little interest in what a company wishes to say about itself, but instead require that content be cited to reliable and independent sources. --Drm310 🍁 (talk) 13:10, 6 February 2025 (UTC)
- What you have done went beyond merely updating and correcting: you also added significantly promotional text, some of it written in blatant marketing-speak. You were told on the talk page of your account how to request an unblock, but you chose instead to just ignore the block and evade it by editing without using your account. Consequently it has been necessary to protect the article to prevent you from continuing to do the same. Unfortunately that may cause inconvenience for some legitimate editors. If you wish to propose changes to the article you may do so at Talk:Getronics. There is a notice on that page about doing so, including a link to the guideline on conflict of interest, which you should read before doing any more editing related to Getronics.
