Neither do I, which bodes problems for the business. They hire you to break Wikipedia rules, not follow them. The question remains: is paid editing which does conform to Wikipedia policies and guidelines acceptable, even welcome?
We have 'paid editing', 'COI editing' and 'POV editing' happening all the time. We deal with it.
We should be less concerned about the motivation, and more concerned about the output.
A fringe academic pushing their theories is just as bad as a corporate shill, if not worse.
Am I 'paid editing' when I write articles during 9-5 ? Is that bad?
