Hi there, I'm HasteurBot. I just wanted to let you know that Draft:Greatness of the Sword, a page you created, has not been edited in 5 months. The Articles for Creation space is not an indefinite storage location for content that is not appropriate for articlespace.

If your submission is not edited soon, it could be nominated for deletion. If you would like to attempt to save it, you will need to improve it.

You may request Userfication of the content if it meets requirements.

If the deletion has already occured, instructions on how you may be able to retrieve it are available at WP:REFUND/G13.

Thank you for your attention. HasteurBot (talk) 01:33, 14 November 2017 (UTC)Reply

Your draft article, Draft:Greatness of the Sword edit

 

Hello, Aspireforintelligence. It has been over six months since you last edited the Articles for Creation submission or Draft page you started, "Greatness of the Sword".

In accordance with our policy that Wikipedia is not for the indefinite hosting of material deemed unsuitable for the encyclopedia mainspace, the draft has been nominated for deletion. If you plan on working on it further, or editing it to address the issues raised if it was declined, simply edit the submission and remove the {{db-afc}}, {{db-draft}}, or {{db-g13}} code.

If your submission has already been deleted by the time you get there, and you wish to retrieve it, you can request its undeletion by following the instructions at this link. An administrator will, in most cases, restore the submission so you can continue to work on it.

Thanks for your submission to Wikipedia, and happy editing. HasteurBot (talk) 00:01, 17 January 2018 (UTC)Reply

The First Teacher (novel) moved to draftspace edit

An article you recently created, The First Teacher (novel), does not have enough sources and citations as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. (?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of "Draft:" before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please follow the confirms on the Articles for Creation template atop the page.

Thank you. This article was translated by me from Russian Wikipedia. Yes, I am working on finding reliable sources for the article.Aspireforintelligence (talk) 13:31, 6 June 2018 (UTC)Reply

Hello Aspireforintelligence. The nature of your edits gives the impression you have an undisclosed financial stake in promoting a topic, 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:Aspireforintelligence. The template {{Paid}} can be used for this purpose – e.g. in the form: {{paid|user=Aspireforintelligence|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.

  • You recently added a photograph of the Steve Lott to his article and listed the photo as own work. What is your relationship with Steve Lott? If you have been hired to write/work on this or any other Wikipedia article the Terms of Use require the disclosures noted in the template and, recently, that you provide links to any sites where you advertise. Thank you for your prompt attention to this matter. Jbh Talk 01:52, 6 June 2018 (UTC)Reply
    • Thank you for showing an interest to my work. I must state that I do not get any kind of a financial benefit, nor direct or indirect compensation for editing and writing articles. I write different articles which is easy to verify by my input. I have asked a journalist I know, who recently was in the Boxing Hall of Fame to take a photo of Steve Lott for me.Aspireforintelligence (talk) 13:25, 6 June 2018 (UTC)Reply
Thank you for your prompt response. Our copyright policy requires that the actual author provide copyright release. It is not acceptable for you to upload another's work as 'own work'. You can have the photographer send release information to info-en-c@wikimedia.org. More information can be found at Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials. Jbh Talk 16:35, 6 June 2018 (UTC)Reply
See the deletion nomination over on Commons. Jbh Talk 16:39, 6 June 2018 (UTC)Reply
    • If I may kindly ask: is it about who actually "took the photo" or about who "has the rights" for the photo?Aspireforintelligence (talk) 15:12, 7 June 2018 (UTC)Reply
Unless you have explicitly obtained the rights to the photo and have a release from the photographer transfering their copyright to you in toto the release needs to come from the photographer. If the work has been released by the photographer under a compatible license elsewhere then documenting that is also acceptable. WP:COPYOTHERS] has more information on that. Jbh Talk 15:20, 7 June 2018 (UTC)Reply
    • Ok, I will tell the journalist to send an email, as I don't have much time to spend on this. Thanks for a clarificationAspireforintelligence (talk) 18:01, 7 June 2018 (UTC)Reply

Speedy deletion nomination of Non-compromised Pendulum edit

Hello Aspireforintelligence,

I wanted to let you know that I just tagged Non-compromised Pendulum for deletion, because it seems to be promotional, rather than an encyclopedia article.

If you feel that the article shouldn't be deleted and want more time to work on it, you can contest this deletion, but please don't remove the speedy deletion tag from the top.

You can leave a note on my talk page if you have questions.

Best, Barkeep49 (talk) 22:19, 8 October 2018 (UTC)Reply

Aspirations edit

At the risk of being accused of "outing" you, I will state that you have contacted me by telephone and told me who you are. You undoubtedly have a CoI and, despite your claim above, I consider that your activities here almost certainly count as paid editing which you have not properly declared.

I have moved your article back to draft space. Please wait for it to be properly reviewed. Do not copy it back to mainspace. But the best advice I can give you is to trot out my usual mantra: kindly have the decency to wait until someone with no CoI thinks the book is notable and writes about it here. — RHaworth (talk · contribs) 13:32, 23 October 2018 (UTC)Reply

  • Correct, I did phone you and wanted to get some recommendations on how to improve the article, but the line got disconnected for some reason. I am a journalist and it is very improbable that I can benefit from a book which is free. I write about things that are interesting for me. It is not my first article, among other articles I wrote Katagans , Kutlug-Buga , Manasology , The legend of Slovene and Ruse, The Greatness of the Sword. I as a volunteer, felt really bad in regard to the way you wrote about me, I try to make Wikipedia better and spend my time on it. — Aspireforintelligence (talk) 23:13, 23 October 2018 (UTC)Reply

Your English is very good but you need to learn the difference between cite, sight and site. I agree that with Katagans for example it is difficult to see how you might have any CoI. But when I see your name and mug shot on a site associated with the Non-compromised Pendulum, I say that is prima facie evidence of CoI. The best advice I can give you is this or put in a request at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Boxing. — RHaworth (talk · contribs) 17:38, 26 October 2018 (UTC)Reply

  • Roger, thank you for the advice, but the whole point is that the Non-compromised Pendulum is not a commercial project, the book is not sold, it is a tribute in the memory of Cus D'Amato, it can be downloaded by anybody in Google Books https://books.google.com.ua/books?id=hABrDwAAQBAJ&printsec=frontcover&hl=ru#v=onepage&q&f=false and I am a volunteer of the project, I don't receive any kind of financial or/and non-financial benefit from it. The same applies for the wikipedia, I am a volunteer in here just the way you are and spend my own time to create articles on the topics I know and find interesting. Aspireforintelligence (talk) 18:54, 26 October 2018 (UTC)Reply

I found your choice of PRhese as a possible "sponsor" rather curious. He seems to be more concerned with general quality control rather than specifically boxing topics. Instead, look at the main section of category:boxing books. It lists six books. Three of them were created in 2003/2004 by the same person. He is still active. Try asking him for help! — RHaworth (talk · contribs) 10:54, 29 October 2018 (UTC)Reply
