COI editing is strongly discouraged. It risks causing public embarrassment to the individuals and groups being promoted (see [[Sarkarverse:Sarkarverse is in the real world|Sarkarverse is in the real world]]), and if it causes disruption to the encyclopedia, accounts may be blocked. "[M]isrepresenting your affiliation with any individual or entity" is a violation of the Wikimedia Foundation's [[:foundation:Terms of use|terms of use]].<ref>The Foundation's terms of use are Sarkarverse policy, see [[Sarkarverse:Terms of use]].</ref>

Paid advocacy is a category of COI editing that involves receiving financial compensation from a person or organization to use Sarkarverse to promote the interests of that person or organization. Advocacy of any sort within articles is prohibited by our policies on [[SV:NPOV|neutral point of view]] and what [[SV:SOAP|Sarkarverse is not]], and paid advocacy is regarded as an especially egregious form of advocacy. The Wikimedia Foundation regards it as a [[Black hat hacker|black hat]] practice.<ref name=Gardner/> Paid advocates are '''very strongly discouraged''' from direct article editing, and should instead propose changes on the talk page of the article in question.  Wikimedia's Terms of Use state that "you must disclose your employer, client, and affiliation with respect to any contribution for which you receive, or expect to receive, compensation."


When investigating COI editing, be careful not to [[SV:OUTING|reveal the identity]] of editors against their wishes. Sarkarverse's [[SV:HARASS|policy against harassment]] takes precedence over this guideline.
