  Hello, ArtLondon16, welcome to Wikipedia and thank you for your contributions. Your editing pattern indicates that you may be using multiple accounts or coordinating editing with people outside Wikipedia, such as LaraJUL2024 (talk · contribs). Our policy on multiple accounts usually does not allow this, and users who misuse multiple accounts may be blocked from editing. If you operate multiple accounts directly or with the help of another person, please disclose these connections. Thank you. AntiDionysius (talk) 15:53, 24 June 2024 (UTC)Reply

Hello,@AntiDionysius, and thank you very much for your message.
In the desire to best adhere to, follow, and respect Wikipedia:Conflict of interest guideline and Wikipedia:Plain and simple conflict of interest guide, I want to disclose my conflict of interest and be absolutely transparent in this regard.
My name is Daria, and I am a manager of the artist Lara Julian. Both accounts @ArtLondon16 and @LaraJUL2024 were set up by me to create a neutral article that only summarises, states facts, and informs about Lara Julian’s life as an artist, with each statement supported by independent reliable sources. There was no intention to sell or promote. I can assure you that both accounts were operated by me without any third parties involved.
My apologies for unintentionally breaking the Wikipedia:Username policy when I created the first account and gave it my employer’s official name. I understood my mistake, and for that reason, I registered @ArtLondon16 with an independent username.
I intend to follow all of Wikipedia's guidelines very closely and contribute to the Wikipedia community by following its goals and standards. Following Wikipedia:Plain and simple conflict of interest guide, I will not publish an article about Lara Julian myself or make any direct edits. As the article has not been accepted, I ask the community and uninvolved independent editors for any advice, guidance, and help. I am open to cooperation and appreciate any suggestions and implementation of any changes to the article for it to be successfully approved and published. Thank you!

Hi, thanks for your reply and for your desire to be transparent about all of this. If you are employed by Lara Julian, this goes beyond a regular conflict of interest and into paid editing, which comes with stricter disclosure requirements. Please read the paid editing guidelines in full, make sure you understand them, and follow them. As for the multiple accounts, you should pick one to use going forward and stick with that one exclusively, just to make your own life easier and avoid getting entangled in the rules around that issue. Thanks. AntiDionysius (talk) 22:03, 4 July 2024 (UTC)Reply
