Please do not remove content or templates from pages on Wikipedia, as you did to Saietta Group, without giving a valid reason for the removal in the edit summary. Your content removal does not appear to be constructive and has been reverted. If you only meant to make a test edit, please use your sandbox for that. Thank you.

Hello, I'm WikiDan61. I wanted to let you know that one or more of your recent contributions to Saietta Group have been undone because they appeared to be promotional. Advertising and using Wikipedia as a "soapbox" are against Wikipedia policy and not permitted; Wikipedia articles should be written objectively, using independent sources, and from a neutral perspective. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about Wikipedia. Your edits at this article read like they came right off of the company's website. You may update the material, but your updates must be properly cited and must remain neutral. WikiDan61^ChatMe!_ReadMe!! 12:27, 1 September 2020 (UTC)

Hello Vic031974. 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:Vic031974. The template {{Paid}} can be used for this purpose – e.g. in the form: {{paid|user=Vic031974|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. — Blablubbs ^{(talk • contribs)} 13:00, 1 September 2020 (UTC)

Conflict of interest

Vic, as you pointed out on my user talk page, you are the CEO of Saietta Group. You need to officially disclose this relationship, and you need to stop editing at that page. If there are factual errors, you may request that the errors be corrected by noting the change you'd like to see at Talk:Saietta Group, but you should not edit the page.
