Hiya it just occurred to me to ask what happened with the prizes for the WikiGap Nigeria Online Challenge Mujinga ( talk) 14:06, 11 December 2020 (UTC)
Hello Kaizenify - I saw your interest in contributing to Nigerian women biographies at Wikipedia:WikiProject Women in Red/Members and wanted to extend an invitation:
Thank you for your contributions to women's football/soccer articles. I thought I'd let you know about the Women's Football/Soccer Task Force ( WP:WOSO), a collaborative effort to improve Wikipedia's coverage of women's football/soccer. If you would like to participate, join by visiting the Members page. Thanks! |
We recently started an initiative WP:WOSO-NG to improve articles related to Nigerian women's footballers / soccer players. Thank you. Hmlarson ( talk) 15:26, 17 December 2020 (UTC)

You're specially invited to join the State House of Assembly Elections in Nigeria Contest from 6 December 2021 to 6 January 2022.
This new project will be created to explicitly reassure and inspire experienced and new wikipedia editors to create articles on state house of assembly elections in all the 36 states of Nigeria. Starting from 1979, 1983, 1992, 1999, 2003, 2007, 2011, 2015 and 2019, Nigeria has conducted state house of assembly elections. But, none of these articles exist on Wikipedia and this new project will seek to categorically solve this problem once and for all.
Sign up for this contest by listing your username under the participants section.
The following prizes will be awarded at the end of the contest.
For more information concerning the contest and how to fully participate, visit the contest page by clicking here.

An article you recently created,
Kola Adesina, is not suitable as written to remain published. It needs more citations from
reliable,
independent sources. (
?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (
verifiability is of
central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to
draftspace (with a prefix of "Draft:
" before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's
general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page.

Please note that I have sent the article Kola Adesina to Draft:Kola Adesina due to what I believe to be an WP:APPARENTCOI please can you be so kind as to explain to me why you are creating a Resumé looking article on a non notable individual and using unreliable pieces, press releases and other questionable sources for WP:V, purposes? Whilst I’m still reviewing your recent articles, I am seeing you create decent articles with decent sources as far back as two years ago, so please may you be so gracious & explain to me how you have demonstrated satisfactory knowledge on how sourcing in the past but have chosen to use WP:QS for this very article? Care to comment? Furthermore, you are advised to pass this through AFC, but this isn’t mandatory and you can move the article to mainspace unilaterally but you have to discuss on the motion I raised at the commencement of this dialogue. Celestina007 ( talk) 20:46, 7 April 2022 (UTC)
The title is pretty much the question, may I ask why you keep on creating non notable articles on entrepreneurs? I have asked you this in the past but you refused to respond, Please cease and desist from creating non notable promotional articles into main-space, Honestly stop, believe me please stop forthwith.

Hello Kaizenify. 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:Kaizenify. The template {{
Paid}} can be used for this purpose – e.g. in the form: {{paid|user=Kaizenify|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. 🇺🇦

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:Kaizenify, and the template {{
Paid}} can be used for this purpose – e.g. in the form: {{paid|user=Kaizenify|employer=InsertName|client=InsertName}}
. Please respond before making any other edits to Wikipedia. 🇺🇦

There does seem to be pretty solid circumstantial evidence that you are involved in editing for some kind of compensation, or at the very least, with a conflict of interest. Do you have anything to disclose or say about this? Before I draw a conclusion, I'd like to hear your side. Dennis Brown - 2¢ 16:06, 8 April 2022 (UTC)
