Managing a conflict of interest

edit

  Hello, Llewelynn. 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 conflict of interest may be unduly influenced by their connection to the topic. See the conflict of interest guideline and FAQ for organizations for more information. We ask that you:

  • avoid editing or creating articles about yourself, your family, friends, colleagues, company, organization or competitors;
  • propose changes on the talk pages of affected articles (you can use the {{request edit}} template);
  • disclose your conflict of interest when discussing affected articles (see Wikipedia:Conflict of interest#How to disclose a COI);
  • avoid linking to your organization's website in other articles (see WP:Spam);
  • do your best to comply with Wikipedia's content policies.

In addition, you are required by the Wikimedia Foundation's terms of use to disclose your employer, client, and affiliation with respect to any contribution which forms all or part of work for which you receive, or expect to receive, compensation. See Wikipedia:Paid-contribution disclosure.

Also, editing for the purpose of advertising, publicising, or promoting anyone or anything is not permitted. Thank you. creffett (talk) 21:09, 2 June 2020 (UTC)Reply

Hello, Llewelynn,

Welcome to Wikipedia! I edit here too, under the username Govvy and it's nice to meet you :-)

I wanted to let you know that I have tagged an article that you started, Dark Matter Studios, for deletion, because it's impossible to identify the subject of the 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. If the page is already deleted by the time you come across this message and you wish to retrieve the deleted material, please contact the deleting administrator.

For any further query, please leave a comment here and prepend it with {{Re|Govvy}}. And, don't forget to sign your reply with ~~~~ . Thanks!

Hi Govvy, thank you for your email. It was a test as I have a substantial amount of content to add to the pages that I was contributing on. However, should rather use the sandbox for a test. But overall I need to first read a few guides before continuing. Kind regards, Llewelynn Llewelynn (talk) 21:14, 2 June 2020 (UTC)Reply

Move of Henk Pretorius to Draft:Henk Pretorius

edit

I have moved the article you created to Draft:Henk Pretorius. It had too little conten to be a valid article as it stood. In draft space, you may if you choose, develop it to a more reasonable state. If you wish to submit it for review under the Articles for Creation process, add {{subst:Submit}} to the top of the page. Do not do this until you have added references that establish the Notability of Henk Pretorius . I urge you to read Your First Article before proceeding.

Your draft article, Draft:Henk Pretorius

edit
 

Hello, Llewelynn. It has been over six months since you last edited the Articles for Creation submission or Draft page you started, "Henk Pretorius".

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.

Thank you for your submission to Wikipedia! UnitedStatesian (talk) 15:59, 18 January 2021 (UTC)Reply
