Regarding your recent edit

Hey Inlandmamba,

my name is Mike, and I'm contacting you regarding your recent edit here on en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Essay. The thing is that you've deleted (reverted) the edit that I've done for the Dialectic essay section (Removed a blog as they are unreliable).

I'm wondering if there's a chance to convince you to bring my edit back (undo your edit)?

Here's the thing: I was researching the topic of dialectic essay writing, among many others I've found a few resources here on Wikipedia, but they were broken links. Another thing is that if you try searching those articles on wayback machine (web archive) - you'll see that those articles were not as detailed and well-researched as the one that I've wrote. I mean my article is better and deliver value for the Wikipedia users who are looking for the info/tips on writing a dialectic essay.

Regarding the reliabality of the blog itself, try searching the brand name via google: you'll find it mentioned on Huffington Post, Business Insider and many more trusted resources. It looks like the one you can trust, isn't it?

On top of that, I see you've created a dedicated page for the company that operates on the same market and provides relared type of services, it seems you consider them reliable.

I'll be glad if you undo your edit. What do you think?

Cheers, Mike — Preceding unsigned comment added by Mhanski (talkcontribs) 10:59, 15 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Inlandmamba!

Top three contributors will be given a gift pack containing Wikipedia merchandise.

Hi. I'm not sure if it best to contact you through this account or your alt, but I figured that your primary account was best. As it was fairly recent, you may not be aware that Wikipedia's Terms of Use were changed on June 15. As a result, it is now necessary under the new rules that anyone being paid to edit on behalf of a client must disclose that relationship. You have a few options as to how - you can make a declaration in the edit summaries, add a statement to the talk page of the article, or you can add a statement to your user page. The disclosure needs to include your employer, your client, and the manner in which you are affiliated, although the "employer" is clearly not relevant when you are doing freelance work. This won't prevent you from doing paid editing work, but is intended to meet the requirements for transparency within the project. For more information, the Terms of Use will help, as will the accompaning FAQ.

As far as I'm aware, you haven't made a declaration along those lines in regard to Nofel Izz, so if you plan to continue to edit on his behalf you will need to clarify your relationship with the subject. - Bilby (talk) 15:06, 1 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Bilby,
Thank you for dropping me a line in respect of the recent edits that I have done. I personally haven't been paid for this work. However, I was asked by a friend of mine to make these edits in respect of space elevator. I haven't really worked on the said article (Nofel Izz) but as soon as I came to know that the friend of mine is being paid to do so, I stopped editing it. Previously, I did make minor edits on the basis that the article was in poor shape but I realized that something was fishy when so many editors were continuously making promotional edits and by reading the discussions that were taking place on the talk page. I had created an article on telescopic Exo Shell, on request, which I didn't realize was coming under WP:MASK when I was notified by User:Skyways and User:Ronz. I agreed with them and did put that article up for deletion.
In reference to the disclosure, I have been editing Wikipedia off and on, in good faith and not for paid editing, for quite some time. If you like, and if you have time, you can review all the editing I have done so far to see if I was actually being paid.
I am sorry to see that you have included my name, in the list of paid editors because of some recent minor edits, on Ronz's talk page just based on the assumption that I am being paid to do so.
