Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia!

I noticed that your edit on one of the first articles you worked on appears to have been carried out using a large language model (LLM), such as ChatGPT. While LLMs are powerful, machine-generated text often contains serious flaws. They may introduce bias, errors, plagiarism, libel, or even hoaxes. Specifically asking an LLM to "write a Wikipedia article" can sometimes cause the output to be outright fabrication, complete with fictitious references. For this reason, the use of AI tools for the creation or rewriting of article content, alongside their usage to generate images, sources or comments, save for a few exceptions, is generally prohibited. LLM-generated articles may be quickly deleted. If you are unsure about your wording, an alternative is to suggest it on the talk page for another volunteer to look at it. If you are creating a new article, you may use the Articles for Creation process to get feedback on your work.

As you get started editing Wikipedia, you may find the pages below to be helpful:

Managing a conflict of interest

[edit]

Information icon Hello, Rogeragross. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about on Wikipedia, you may have a conflict of interest (COI). Editors with a conflict of interest may be unduly influenced by their connection to the topic. We ask that you:

In addition, you are required by the Wikimedia Foundation's terms of use to disclose your employer, client, and affiliation for any contribution which forms all or part of work for which you receive compensation. See Wikipedia:Paid-contribution disclosure.

See the FAQ for article subjects for more information.

Also, editing for the purpose of advertising, publicizing, or promoting anyone or anything is not permitted. Thank you. Deacon Vorbis (carbon  videos) 07:08, 2 September 2026 (UTC)Reply

Information Note: I have undone your mass of edit requests. See the above for more information on how to proceed, and for crissakes, stop using chatgpt or whatever godawful slop producer du jour it happens to be and write in your own words.

Hi Decon,
Sorry I don't understand. In most cases I used AI to guide me through making a submission so it helped me fill in the relevant sections like declaring a COI. Many of the edits I proposed are literally just a single line changing the name to red for a future link. I am unsure on what grounds you are rejecting those types of changes because AI and a human would submit the same edit in these trivial editing cases.
There are inaccuracies in many of these the articles which I know first hand because I am that person, hence why I declared my COI.
People like me who are neurodivergent and very good with numbers are often terrible at writing words so we use AI for this. It is not perfect but better than the slop I write because of my disability. I find your prejudice towards my disability unhelpful.
Please suggest how someone like me can contribute to these articles. Rogeragross (talk) 15:36, 2 September 2026 (UTC)Reply
