This was a really good class!!!
Stumbled
Thanks for this warning, spammers. We will watch and block.
Hey, Wikipedia is an encyclopedia – it’s not the Yellow Pages, and it’s not Google. It certainly won’t be a marketing puppet. Please don’t disrupt what others work so earnestly for.
They say they’re watching. They say they’re blocking. But, I’ve gotten 12 paid/conflicted articles published on Wikipedia, some as recently as this month. Two of them are deleted. Ten are still going strong.
What’s my secret? Nine of those ten that survived, I have never disclosed to anyone other than the editor who posted them, myself, and the client, of course.
THE SECRET TO SUCCESS ON WIKIPEDIA IS SECRECY.
Repeat that as many times as you need to, until you understand.
