I have put the media coverage Mimoun have had as a successful entrepreneur in the UAE. Thanks for letting me know how i should proceed to create his profile. Thanks

Hello Alexia007. The nature of your edits gives the impression you have an undisclosed financial stake in promoting a topic, such as the edit you made to Draft:Mimoun_Assraoui, and that 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 egregious type of COI; the Wikimedia Foundation regards it as a "black hat" practice akin to Black hat SEO.

Paid advocates are very strongly discouraged from direct article editing, and should instead propose changes on the talk page of the article in question if an article exists, and if it does not, 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:Alexia007. The template {{Paid}} can be used for this purpose – e.g. in the form: {{paid|user=Alexia007|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, please do not edit further until you answer this message. Ian.thomson (talk) 16:31, 30 May 2018 (UTC)

Because you are married to him, you have a conflict of interest and should not edit articles relating to him.

If you plan on ignoring that, about the only way to do that without getting blocked is:

1) Gather as many professionally-published mainstream academic or journalistic sources you can find. Not press releases.

2) Focus on just the ones that are not dependent upon or affiliated with the subject, but still specifically about the subject and providing in-depth coverage (not passing mentions). If you do not have at least three such sources, the subject is not yet notable and trying to write an article at this point will only fail.

3) Summarize those sources from step 2, adding citations at the end of them. You'll want to do this in a program with little/no formatting, like Microsoft Notepad or Notepad++, and not in something like Microsoft Word or LibreOffice Writer. Make sure the language is something that even someone who hates the subject can agree with -- avoid opinionated terms like "successful," think in boring terms of neutral facts that no one can deny. If you have any friends who do not like your husband, ask them to proofread it.

4) Combine overlapping summaries (without arriving at new statements that no individual source supports) where possible, repeating citations as needed.

5) Paraphrase the whole thing just to be extra sure you've avoided any copyright violations or plagiarism. And again, avoid any promotional or opinionated language.

6) Use the Wikipedia:Articles for creation to post this draft and wait for approval -- if you write about your husband, you must declare your conflict of interest.

7) Once the draft is approved, go to the article's talk page and the post links to the sources you put aside in step 2. You'll have to wait for someone else to expand the article.

Doing something besides those steps typically results in the article not being approved, or even in its deletion. Trying to get around these steps by using a different account or getting someone else to do the work will only result in the draft being deleted, all accounts being locked, and a whole lot more trouble for anyone else who tries to make the article.

Speedy deletion nomination of Draft:Mimoun Assraoui

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.

You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on Draft:Mimoun Assraoui, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page seems to be unambiguous advertising which only promotes a company, group, product, service, person, or point of view and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become encyclopedic. Please read the guidelines on spam and Wikipedia:FAQ/Organizations for more information.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator.
