Welcome!

Hello, Kanika K (CEJN), and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions.

I noticed that one of the first articles you edited appears to be dealing with a topic with which you may have a conflict of interest. In other words, you may find it difficult to write about that topic in a neutral and objective way, because you are, work for, or represent, the subject of that article. Your recent contributions may have already been undone for this very reason.

To reduce the chances of your contributions being undone, you might like to draft your revised article before submission, and then ask me or another editor to proofread it. See our help page on userspace drafts for more details. If the page you created has already been deleted from Wikipedia, but you want to save the content from it to use for that draft, don't hesitate to ask anyone from this list and they will copy it to your user page.

One rule we do have in connection with conflicts of interest is that accounts used by more than one person will unfortunately be blocked from editing. Wikipedia generally does not allow editors to have usernames which imply that the account belongs to a company or corporation. If you have a username like this, you should request a change of username or create a new account. (A name that identifies the user as an individual within a given organization may be OK.)

In addition, if you receive, or expect to receive, compensation for any contribution you make, you must disclose your employer, client, and affiliation to comply with our terms our use and policy on paid editing.

Here are some pages that you might find helpful:

• How to edit a page and How to develop articles
• How to create your first article (using the Article Wizard if you wish)
• Simplified Manual of Style

I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Please sign your messages on talk pages using four tildes (~~~~); this will automatically insert your username and the date. If you need help, check out Wikipedia:Questions, ask me on my talk page, or ask your question on this page and then place {{Help me}} before the question. Again, welcome!

A summary of some important site policies and guidelines

• "Truth" is not the only criteria for inclusion, verifiability is also required.
• We do not publish original thought nor original research. We're not a blog, we're not here to promote any ideology.
• Primary sources are usually avoided to prevent original research. Secondary or tertiary sources are preferred for this reason as well.
• A subject is considered notable if it has received significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject.
• Reliable sources typically include: articles from mainstream magazines or newspapers (particularly scholarly journals), or books by recognized authors (basically, books by respected publishers). Online versions of these are usually accepted, provided they're held to the same standards. User generated sources (like Wikipedia) are to be avoided. Self-published sources should be avoided except for information by and about the subject that is not self-serving (for example, citing a company's website to establish something like year of establishment).

My usual recommendation for creating articles

1) Gather as many professionally-published mainstream academic or journalistic sources you can find that are specifically about the subject, but not connected to or affiliated with the subject. Forget about the company website for now. Ignore sources that only mention the article in passing. Directories are also kind of useless for establishing notability, as they try to list everyone indiscriminately. You need at least three of these sources.
2) Summarize those sources and put citations at the end of each summary.
3) Combine the summaries where possible (without creating new claims that no individual source makes), repeating citations where necessary.
4) Paraphrase the whole thing, just to be sure there's no copyright violations.
5) Post that draft to establish notability.
6) Expand the article using other sources, but make sure they don't make up more than half the sources used (and try to keep the company website to less than one-third of the sources used).

Pretty much any other approach is likely to be deleted. As it is, the draft you are currently working on is not really all that different from the two previous versions that were deleted, and is going to be deleted again for the same reasons.

While it's nice that your new account name and user page makes it clearer that you're an employee of the CEJN, you still need to abide by all of the notices you received on your previous account's talk page.
