Deletion discussion about Sunny Ali edit

Hello Aanuarif, and thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia.

While your contributions are appreciated, I wanted to let you know that I've started a discussion about whether an article that you created, Sunny Ali, should be deleted, as I am not sure that it is suitable for inclusion in Wikipedia in its current form. Your comments are welcome at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Sunny Ali.

Deletion discussions usually run for seven days and are not votes. Our guide about effectively contributing to such discussions is worth a read. The most common issue in these discussions is notability, but it's not the only aspect that may be discussed; read the nomination and any other comments carefully before you contribute to the discussion. Last but not least, you are highly encouraged to continue improving the article; just be sure not to remove the tag about the deletion nomination from the top.

If you have any questions, please leave a comment here and prepend it with {{Re|CNMall41}}. And don't forget to sign your reply with ~~~~ . Thanks!

(Message delivered via the Page Curation tool, on behalf of the reviewer.)

March 2024 edit

 

Hello Aanuarif. The nature of your edits, such as the one you made to Sunny Ali, gives the impression you have an undisclosed financial stake in promoting a topic, but you have not complied with Wikipedia's mandatory paid editing disclosure requirements. Paid advocacy is a category of conflict of interest (COI) editing that involves being compensated by a person, group, company or organization to use Wikipedia to promote their interests. Undisclosed paid advocacy is prohibited by our policies on neutral point of view and what Wikipedia is not, and is an especially serious type of COI; the Wikimedia Foundation regards it as a "black hat" practice akin to black-hat search-engine optimization.

Paid advocates are strongly discouraged from direct article editing, and should instead propose changes on the talk page of the article in question if an article exists. If the article does not exist, paid advocates are strongly discouraged from attempting to write an article at all. At best, any proposed article creation should be submitted through the articles for creation process, rather than directly.

Regardless, if you are receiving or expect to receive compensation for your edits, broadly construed, you are required by the Wikimedia Terms of Use to disclose your employer, client and affiliation. You can post such a mandatory disclosure to your user page at User:Aanuarif. The template {{Paid}} can be used for this purpose – e.g. in the form: {{paid|user=Aanuarif|employer=InsertName|client=InsertName}}. If I am mistaken – you are not being directly or indirectly compensated for your edits – please state that in response to this message. Otherwise, please provide the required disclosure. In either case, do not edit further until you answer this message. —Saqib (talk | contribs) 17:33, 26 March 2024 (UTC)Reply

Hello Saqib,
I don't work for anyone or am directly affiliated with anyone within the scope of my edits. Same applies to Sunny Ali. My edits/articles are mostly of my countrymen that I try to put on the global map. Aanuarif (talk) 22:21, 26 March 2024 (UTC)Reply
Based on your removal of the notability tag and moving other pages to the mainspace despite being declined in AfC (which were also worked on by other SPA accounts), it is very likely you have a conflict of interest. Please read WP:COI and WP:PAID and make the appropriate disclosure if applicable. Unfortunately, your conduct would need to be brought up at WP:COIN should it continue. --CNMall41 (talk) 18:49, 4 April 2024 (UTC)Reply

April 2024 edit

  Please do not remove maintenance templates from pages on Wikipedia, as you did to Sunny Ali, without resolving the problem that the template refers to, or giving a valid reason for the removal in the edit summary. Your removal of this template does not appear constructive, and has been reverted. As you did here. CNMall41 (talk) 18:38, 4 April 2024 (UTC)Reply

Orphaned non-free image File:Raafay Israr.jpg edit

 

Thanks for uploading File:Raafay Israr.jpg. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described in section F5 of the criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. --B-bot (talk) 02:37, 6 April 2024 (UTC)Reply

Waqar Zaka edit

As previously mentioned, please refrain from including promotional content in BLPs and avoid using unreliable references as citations. It's important to exercise extreme caution when making edits to BLPs, especially since they fall under the WP:CT/IPA. Before restoring the promotional material, please consider that any edit warring could result in a block. I kindly request that you provide an explanation here for the inclusion of unreliable references. —Saqib (talk | contribs) 19:28, 20 April 2024 (UTC)Reply

I'm also pinging @Ganesha811: who cleaned up this BLP early this year. --—Saqib (talk | contribs) 19:31, 20 April 2024 (UTC)Reply
Hi Saqib!
All the citations are of independent and reliable sources, including Business Recorder (A national Newspaper of Pakistan that also operates internationally), Samaa News (National TV channel & news website), Tribune, Dawn News, and more. There is nothing promotional material, everything is cited from independent sources. Aanuarif (talk) 19:32, 20 April 2024 (UTC)Reply
Your claims are not accurate. While the sources you mentioned are indeed RS, they don't verify the claims you're trying to add. It appears you're using these sources as citations to support WP:OR, which is considered disruptive editing. Additionally, you've used various unreliable sources like Fashion Times, Something Haute, Coin Telegraph, ProPakistani, TechJuice, OKX, Gizchina, and even Twitter and YouTube, which are all unacceptable sources, particularly for BLPs. —Saqib (talk | contribs) 19:38, 20 April 2024 (UTC)Reply
I would request you to again go through the citations and what exactly are they being referred to. Coin Telegraph is an internationally acclaimed source for Cryptos and related information. OKX is a crypto exchange where many acclaimed cryptos are traded. Twitter, YouTube, ProPakistani I had already removed. Aanuarif (talk) 19:52, 20 April 2024 (UTC)Reply
These sources are all considered PR sites and we typically avoid citing them, particularly on BLPs. —Saqib (talk | contribs) 19:56, 20 April 2024 (UTC)Reply
Agreed! However, I can provide more citations from Independent Sources. Provided the information stays there, perhaps you can add the Citation Needed template at places where required. Aanuarif (talk) 19:57, 20 April 2024 (UTC)Reply
I recommend that you create a draft in your own user namespace. I'll review it to ensure it complies with WP:BLP standards. I won't advise you to directly edit this BLP. —Saqib (talk | contribs) 19:59, 20 April 2024 (UTC)Reply
You mean on my talkpage? Aanuarif (talk) 20:01, 20 April 2024 (UTC)Reply
Yes, BTW why are you promoting him as a cryptocurrency expert? To my knowledge, Waqar Zaka has paid users in the past to edit his BLP. Has he done so again? Otherwise, why would you or anyone promote him so blatantly as a cryptocurrency expert when he's not? —Saqib (talk | contribs) 20:08, 20 April 2024 (UTC)Reply
I'm not sure if he has paid anyone! He is a cryptocurrency expert, again as written by several publications and was hired by the Govt. of KPK in the same role, for which I had given the citation of Business Recorder. Here's the link: https://www.brecorder.com/news/40092705
Hope this helps! Aanuarif (talk) 20:15, 20 April 2024 (UTC)Reply
BTW, may I ask why are you removing all the information? To my knowledge, there have been cases in the past where someone had paid to remove the information of Pakistani influencers and leaders. Is again some opposing lobby doing so? Aanuarif (talk) 20:21, 20 April 2024 (UTC)Reply
Really? I'd like more information about those cases. Could you please provide it, or are you making this up? —Saqib (talk | contribs) 20:26, 20 April 2024 (UTC)Reply
@Aanuarif, I want to emphasize that Saqib is correct - your edits appear to be promotional in nature and do not conform to our standards for reliable sources and WP:BLPs. Further editing of this nature could lead to your behavior being seen as disruptive. I recommend you take their advice. —Ganesha811 (talk) 20:27, 20 April 2024 (UTC)Reply
@Ganesha811 Do you have any thoughts on how I've been editing this particular BLP? Feel free to share your comments at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Waqar Zaka (3rd nomination). —Saqib (talk I contribs) 10:13, 9 May 2024 (UTC)Reply

Hi Lkomdis,
I'll refrain from any discussion. Saqib's behavior seems unethical and it seems like he has some COI with the subjects of my articles or articles I edit. I'll let the admins decide what's best for Wikipedia. Until then, I'll not be editing anything. Peace! Aanuarif (talk) 06:20, 9 May 2024 (UTC)Reply

Kashan Admani moved to draftspace edit

Thanks for your contributions to Kashan Admani. Unfortunately, I do not think it is ready for publishing at this time because it needs more sources to establish notability, it is promotional and reads like an advertisement and you may have a possible Conflict of Interest. I have converted your article to a draft which you can improve, undisturbed for a while.

Please see more information at Help:Unreviewed new page. When the article is ready for publication, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page OR move the page back. —Saqib (talk I contribs) 11:13, 9 May 2024 (UTC)Reply

File permission problem with File:Usman Sheikh, Aag Band.jpg edit

 

Thanks for uploading File:Usman Sheikh, Aag Band.jpg. I noticed that while you provided a valid copyright licensing tag, there is no proof that the creator of the file has agreed to release it under the given license.

If you are the copyright holder for this media entirely yourself but have previously published it elsewhere (especially online), please either

  • make a note permitting reuse under the CC BY-SA or another acceptable free license (see this list) at the site of the original publication; or

You can find a sample permission letter here. If you take this step, add {{permission pending}} to the file description page to prevent premature deletion.

If you did not create it entirely yourself, please ask the person who created the file to take one of the two steps listed above, or if the owner of the file has already given their permission to you via email, please forward that email to permissions-en@wikimedia.org.

If you believe the media meets the criteria at Wikipedia:Non-free content, use a tag such as {{non-free fair use}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:File copyright tags#Fair use, and add a rationale justifying the file's use on the article or articles where it is included.
