Managing a conflict of interest

edit

  Hello, MEJLean. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about in the page Diabetes Remission Clinical Trial, you may have a conflict of interest (COI). Editors with a COI 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, company, organization or competitors;
  • propose changes on the talk pages of affected articles (see the {{request edit}} template);
  • disclose your COI when discussing affected articles (see WP:DISCLOSE);
  • 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 must 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 WP:PAID).

Also please note that editing for the purpose of advertising, publicising, or promoting anyone or anything is not permitted. Please note that the declaration template should be placed on your user page and not on the main article page. Jmertel23 (talk) 19:23, 13 September 2018 (UTC)Reply

Diabetes Remission Clinical Trial moved to draftspace

edit

An article you recently created, Diabetes Remission Clinical Trial, is unsuitable for inclusion in Wikipedia in its present form. It needs references to reliable, independent sources that show that the subject (the trial) meets Wikipedia's notability criteria. The article is also blatantly promotional and could be deleted under criterion G11 of the speedy deletion criteria. 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 is no longer promotional in tone, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page.

Further thoughts

edit

An article about an ongoing clinical trial is not really suitable for Wikipedia. The fact that you yourself are conducting the trial, makes it doubly so. It would be better, in my opinion, if you wrote a well-referenced, balanced article on the topic of remission of type 2 diabetes. The results of your trial is considered to be a primary source. Secondary sources, providing an independent view of the subject, are necessary for Wikipedia articles, especially for medical topics. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 12:51, 15 September 2018 (UTC)Reply

Your draft article, Draft:Diabetes Remission Clinical Trial

edit
 

Hello, MEJLean. It has been over six months since you last edited the Articles for Creation submission or Draft page you started, "Diabetes Remission Clinical Trial".

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! HawkAussie (talk) 04:04, 21 August 2019 (UTC)Reply
