December 2024

Hello Napoleonjosephine2020. The nature of your edits, such as the one you made to Lindy Li, gives the impression you have an undisclosed financial stake in promoting a topic, but you have not complied with Misplaced Pages'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 Misplaced Pages must be disclosed even if you have not specifically been asked to edit Misplaced Pages. Undisclosed paid advocacy is prohibited by our policies on neutral point of view and what Misplaced Pages 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:Napoleonjosephine2020. The template {{Paid}} can be used for this purpose – e.g. in the form: {{paid|user=Napoleonjosephine2020|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. Magnolia677 (talk) 14:18, 21 December 2024 (UTC)

I can promise you I am not being paid a single cent or farthing to make any edits. This is actually my first edit in five years. Am I correct in saying that you are personally highly disapproving of Li and wish to cast her in a negative light? Please forgive me if I'm mistaken. Napoleonjosephine2020 (talk) 01:08, 22 December 2024 (UTC)

Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Misplaced Pages, as you did at Lindy Li. Your edits appear to be disruptive and have been or will be reverted.

• If you are engaged in an article content dispute with another editor, please discuss the matter with the editor at their talk page, or the article's talk page, and seek consensus with them. Alternatively, you can read Misplaced Pages's dispute resolution page, and ask for independent help at one of the relevant noticeboards.
• If you are engaged in any other form of dispute that is not covered on the dispute resolution page, please seek assistance at Misplaced Pages's Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents.

Please ensure you are familiar with Misplaced Pages's policies and guidelines, and please do not continue to make edits that appear disruptive. Continued disruptive editing may result in loss of editing privileges. Thank you. Magnolia677 (talk) 16:22, 22 December 2024 (UTC)

Which of my edits are disruptive? Can you please be specific? I am just trying to return her page to its original state prior to the onslaught of abuse and hate she's gotten in recent days.

You also never addressed my original point. Are you motivated by bias or animus against Li?

I'm happy to come to a consensus with you. What do you suggest? Are you willing to establish some common ground? Napoleonjosephine2020 (talk) 01:48, 23 December 2024 (UTC)

Hi Napoleonjosephine2020! I noticed that you have reverted to restore your preferred version of an article several times. The impulse to undo an edit you disagree with is understandable, but I wanted to make sure you're aware that the edit warring policy disallows repeated reversions even if they are justifiable.

All editors are expected to discuss content disputes on article talk pages to try to reach consensus. If you are unable to agree, please use one of the dispute resolution options to seek input from others. Using this approach instead of reverting can help you avoid getting drawn into an edit war. Thank you. Gaismagorm (talk) 02:56, 23 December 2024 (UTC)

Hi! Thanks for getting in touch. Encyclo openly admits to attacking Li as an opportunistic grifter on X, on a public forum!! He just admitted to harboring animosity towards Li. How can you let her page be sabotaged by those who hate her? Come on. I am appealing to everyone's common sense! Here's his tweet (he admitted to it himself): https://x.com/Laurence1084/status/1870496100081352924 Napoleonjosephine2020 (talk) 03:44, 23 December 2024 (UTC)

Notice of edit warring noticeboard discussion

Hello. This message is being sent to inform you that there is currently a discussion involving you at Misplaced Pages:Administrators' noticeboard/Edit warring regarding a possible violation of Misplaced Pages's policy on edit warring. Thank you. Kline • talk • contribs 05:16, 23 December 2024 (UTC)

I responded: The editor whose revisions I am trying to undo publicly attacked the subject as an "opportunistic grifter". No one who uses such inflammatory language should be editing the page of this subject. This is common sense and journalism 101. He is clearly motivated by animus against her and should not be editing her page. Why is this even in question?

I hope you reported the other individual for sabotaging the page of someone he clearly disdains at best and hates at worst. Napoleonjosephine2020 (talk) 05:24, 23 December 2024 (UTC)
