Conflict of Interest edit

  Hello, EricHsu-2015. 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 COI may be unduly influenced by their connection to the topic. See the conflict of interest guideline and FAQ for organizations for more information. In particular, please:

  • avoid editing or creating articles related to you and your circle, your organization, its competitors, projects or products;
  • instead propose changes on the talk pages of affected articles (see the {{request edit}} template);
  • when discussing affected articles, disclose your COI (see WP:DISCLOSE);
  • avoid linking to the Wikipedia article or website of your organization in other articles (see WP:SPAM);
  • exercise great caution so that you do not violate Wikipedia's content policies.

In addition, you must disclose your employer, client, and affiliation with respect to any contribution for which you receive, or expect to receive, compensation (see WP:PAID).

Please familiarize yourself with relevant policies and guidelines, especially those pertaining to neutral point of view, sourcing and autobiographies. Thank you. TomStar81 (Talk) 23:12, 19 April 2016 (UTC)Reply

Your Username edit

  Welcome to Wikipedia. I noticed that your username, "EricHsu-2015", may not meet Wikipedia's username policy because your company name is Kashsoo, and that is in your username as well. Be very careful if you intend to edit the article for you company, as it could get your account blocked here on Wikipedia for username violation.. If you believe that your username does not violate our policy, please leave a note here explaining why. As an alternative, you may ask for a change of username by completing this form, or you may simply create a new account for editing. Thank you. TomStar81 (Talk) 23:12, 19 April 2016 (UTC)Reply

Re:Editing Guidance Needed edit

You've asked a two part question, so your going to get a two part answer. This may get long, if so I apologize in advance since I need to explain this sufficiently so you (and I presume yours) will get the most out of the explanation.

For the first half of your question, the reason the article Kashoo was deleted was an apparently lack of notability, a major conflict of interest, and the article's construction. All articles here have to meet the general notability guidelines as those guidelines pertain to the article's subject. Your article is a business article, but there was a notable absence of second and third party sources to justify having the article here under this guidelines because the business by our standards was/is unnotable. On top of that the article's contributors apparently all had a hand in the creation and retention of the article (including, incidentally, two users who have edit this article near exclusively and one of those editors still retains a copy in his/her sandbox for independent work). If you or your have a major interest in retaining the article on site then we get suspicious of motives, particularly since past experiences have suggested that those who have an interest in retaining an article on site have ulterior motives for doing so (including but not limited to paid editing and promotional consideration for the article in question), and most of those ulterior motives put the article and editor(s) in deletion and block/ban territory on Wikipedia. Your article's construction was indicative of self promotion, which suggests that the article was created solely so that you and your would have a way to freely advertise or promote your business/product. That puts the article in summary deletion territory, for which it has been axed three separate times for being an article about a company, corporation or organization, which does not credibly indicate the importance or significance of the subject.

For the second half of your question: there really isn't a way for an article of this nature to be on Wikipedia at present. The article lacks any claim of significance, has consistently been rebuilt to look and read like an advertisement, and appears to be edited exclusively by people who are involved with or have a vested interest in the article, not by independent third party editors/contributors who would be in a position to work on the article from an impartial point of view. That being said, if you are hell bent on working on the article (which, incidentally, would be a sure fire way to get this account blocked on username violation grounds and may warrant a sockpuppet investigation) then I would recommend working on the material in the draft space. Experienced editors interested in helping people create articles would be in a position to review and offer suggestions for the article to guide it towards publication on Wikipedia.

If you'd like some homework here I would recommend reading writing a good stub and deleting an article, this should give you a feel for the lay of the land. TomStar81 (Talk) 23:12, 19 April 2016 (UTC)Reply
