Hello, Rubentmgmedia, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions.

I noticed that one of the first articles you edited appears to be dealing with a topic with which you may have a conflict of interest. In other words, you may find it difficult to write about that topic in a neutral and objective way, because you are, work for, or represent, the subject of that article. Your recent contributions may have already been undone for this very reason.

To reduce the chances of your contributions being undone, you might like to draft your revised article before submission, which will be reviewed by other editors. See our help page on userspace drafts for more details. If the page you created has already been deleted from Wikipedia, but you want to save the content from it to use for that draft, don’t hesitate to ask anyone from this list and they will copy it to your user page.

One rule we do have in connection with conflicts of interest is that accounts used by more than one person will unfortunately be blocked from editing. Wikipedia generally does not allow editors to have usernames which imply that the account belongs to a company or corporation. If you have a username like this, you should request a change of username or create a new account. (A name that identifies the user as an individual within a given organization may be OK.)

In addition, if you receive, or expect to receive, compensation for any contribution you make, you must disclose your employer, client, and affiliation to comply with our terms of use and our policy on paid editing.

Here are some pages that you might find helpful:

I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Please sign your messages on talk pages using four tildes (~~~~); this will automatically insert your username and the date. If you need help, visit the Teahouse, check out Wikipedia:Questions, ask me on my talk page, or ask your question on this page and then place {{Help me}} before the question. Again, welcome! 🇵🇸‍🇺🇦 FiddleTimtrent FaddleTalk to me 🇺🇦‍🇵🇸 11:48, 19 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Hello Rubentmgmedia. 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 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:Rubentmgmedia. The template {{Paid}} can be used for this purpose – e.g. in the form: {{paid|user=Rubentmgmedia|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. 🇵🇸‍🇺🇦 FiddleTimtrent FaddleTalk to me 🇺🇦‍🇵🇸 11:48, 19 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]

As previously advised, your edits give the impression you have a financial stake in promoting a topic, but you have not complied with Wikipedia’s mandatory paid editing disclosure requirements. You were asked to cease editing until you responded by either stating that you are not being directly or indirectly compensated for your edits, or by complying with the mandatory requirements under the Wikimedia Terms of Use that you disclose your employer, client and affiliation. Again, you can post such a disclosure on your user page at User:Rubentmgmedia, and the template {{Paid}} can be used for this purpose – e.g. in the form: {{paid|user=Rubentmgmedia|employer=InsertName|client=InsertName}}. Please respond before making any other edits to Wikipedia. 🇵🇸‍🇺🇦 FiddleTimtrent FaddleTalk to me 🇺🇦‍🇵🇸 11:57, 19 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Please stop. If you continue to remove maintenance templates without resolving the problem that the template refers to, you may be blocked from editing. 🇵🇸‍🇺🇦 FiddleTimtrent FaddleTalk to me 🇺🇦‍🇵🇸 11:57, 19 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]

You still have not adequately responded or taken action to the inquiry regarding your appearance as an undisclosed paid editor. If you make any additional edits without complying, you may be blocked from editing. 🇵🇸‍🇺🇦 FiddleTimtrent FaddleTalk to me 🇺🇦‍🇵🇸 12:19, 19 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I note you have made some sort of declaration below. There is some clarification needed, please.
Have you ever edited an article on your employer’s client(s), and will you ever edit an article on your employer’s client(s)? If so then you are a paid editor and must declare that. If not I suggest that you change your user name to avoid confusion; If so I suggest you crate a legitimate alternative username for your private use, and reserve this one for paid editing, stating on each user page that you have done so.
WP:TEAHOUSE will help you if you are unsure how to do this. 🇵🇸‍🇺🇦 FiddleTimtrent FaddleTalk to me 🇺🇦‍🇵🇸 12:24, 19 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Hello @FiddleTimtrent Faddle:
Thank you for your review of Draft:Jana Denzel. I want to clarify that I have **no financial or professional relationship with Jana Denzel**. I am not being paid or compensated in any way for these edits.
The reason I started this draft is because **another candidate from the same series of The Apprentice (Amber-Rose Badrudin, series 19) already has a live Wikipedia article**. Since both were contestants on the same programme, I believed it appropriate to draft an article on Jana Denzel as well, provided the sourcing can meet notability requirements.
I understand the importance of neutrality and independent sources, and I will continue to work on strengthening the draft accordingly.
Best regards,
Ruben Rubentmgmedia (talk) 12:03, 19 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Hello, Rubentmgmedia!
Having an article draft declined at Articles for Creation can be disappointing. If you are wondering why your article submission was declined, please post a question at the Articles for creation help desk. If you have any other questions about your editing experience, we’d love to help you at the Teahouse, a friendly space on Wikipedia where experienced editors lend a hand to help new editors like yourself! See you there! 🇵🇸‍🇺🇦 FiddleTimtrent FaddleTalk to me 🇺🇦‍🇵🇸 11:50, 19 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you for your review of Draft:Jana Denzel. I want to clarify that I have **no financial or professional relationship with Jana Denzel**. I am not being paid or compensated in any way for these edits. I am editing as a volunteer and enthusiast, not as a paid advocate.
I understand the importance of neutrality and sourcing, and I will continue working to improve the draft accordingly.
Best regards,
Ruben Rubentmgmedia (talk) 12:01, 19 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]
So you don’t work for TMG Media then? MarcGarver (talk) 12:11, 19 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Hello @MarcGarver:
To clarify, I do work with TMG Media – hence my username, but I am **not being paid or compensated in any way for editing Wikipedia**. My editing here is in a personal volunteer capacity. I noticed that other candidates from the same series of The Apprentice already have Wikipedia articles, and so I drafted one for Jana Denzel in the same spirit of coverage and consistency.
Best regards,
Rubentmgmedia (talk) 12:16, 19 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]
I am afraid you have not demonstrated Denzel to pass WP:BIO. 🇵🇸‍🇺🇦 FiddleTimtrent FaddleTalk to me 🇺🇦‍🇵🇸 12:25, 19 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]
