On a final note, you may want to try the new (beta) VisualEditor, check out our weekly newspaper, the Wikipedia Signpost, and join a WikiProject of interest to you. WikiProjects gather editors interested in certain topic areas, providing them with information, tools and a place to discuss the topic in question. . For a list of all WikiProjects, see here. Joining a WikiProject makes the Wikipedia experience much richer! Chris Troutman (talk) 13:30, 26 January 2016 (UTC)Reply

  Welcome to Wikipedia. We welcome and appreciate your contributions, including your edits to Quantum anthropology, but we cannot accept original research. Original research refers to material—such as facts, allegations, ideas, and personal experiences—for which no reliable, published sources exist; it also encompasses combining published sources in a way to imply something that none of them explicitly say. Please be prepared to cite a reliable source for all of your contributions. Your contributions to this article were basically all against Wikipedia rules. jps (talk) 15:37, 23 February 2016 (UTC)Reply

Hello MaterialistX. 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:MaterialistX. The template {{Paid}} can be used for this purpose – e.g. in the form: {{paid|user=MaterialistX|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. SmartSE (talk) 10:26, 19 October 2020 (UTC)Reply

Per the discussion at User_talk:Wikiditor it is obvious that you are linked to each other and thus that you are also a paid editor. SmartSE (talk) 10:36, 19 October 2020 (UTC)Reply
