{{Workpage|WP:PAID}}

{{Shortcut|WP:PAIDLIST}}

This is a list of companies involved in paid editing, both disclosed and undisclosed, and some of their blocked accounts.

It also describes some of the ways in which these companies work. It is to help with the detection and follow up of future issues, and to help educate those who may have been approached by such organizations to write an article for them.

For background, see also the Wikimedia Foundation statement on paid editing and outing (2017).

Cameron Free Marketing is a small marketing company based in Boca Raton, Florida. The company does not directly offer Wikipedia editing services, but significant overlaps exist between the off-wiki company's clients and topics edited by the User:Cameronfree sockfarm (case at Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Cameronfree) strongly implies a paid editing campaign was being undertaken from late 2018 to early 2019.

Cameron Free Marketing's areas of interest (both in terms of off and on Wiki marketing) seems to be focused around topics related to Florida—the state where the company is based—with special emphasis being centered around Boca Raton. Other editing focuses include smaller companies related to the arts or clothing.

Suspected clients include;

  • Ikonick-a canvas and art supplies company.
  • Jersey Champs-a sports clothing company; this company has been the subject of edits by multiple undisclosed paid editors in the past, most of which are not affiliated with Cameron Free Marketing.

Having a Wikipedia article about your brand is a win-win – it means you’re appearing on one of the biggest independent information resources in existence and it means you’re featured on one of those public sources Google uses to generate the Knowledge Graph. Now, Wikipedia isn’t quite the content free-for-all it used to be, so getting a page added might be more difficult than you’re expecting – but it’s an ordeal worth going through to claim that much organic real estate.

== Z-Technetics ==

:Different from wikicreators.com and wikicreatorsinc.com.

Z-Technetics is a defunct marketing company based in Karachi, Pakistan. It was not a registered entity per SECP records and was likely operating as a proxy of Digitonics. Goes by various names such as [https://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:qtz-134OFU4J:https://ztechnetics.com/why-us Wiki Creators LLC], Estech Digital, Techture or Quad Tech Pvt Ltd. Some of these are actual companies in the United States or Karachi, Pakistan. Impersonates Wikipedia administrators in off-wiki communications. Deceives customers in relation to paid contributions policies.

Some of their websites shared infrastructure with #Digitonics. One of their websites, "Techture.co", has the same name that some scam victims claimed were the same merchant name used by #Sybex Lab ([https://archive.is/tmLFY], [https://archive.is/XaJ76])
