Lina Khoury moved to draftspace

edit

An article you recently created, Lina Khoury, 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 click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page.

Managing a conflict of interest

edit

  Hello, Manar Wehbe. 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. Praxidicae (talk) 19:25, 10 December 2019 (UTC)Reply

Playwright example

edit

See Arthur Miller for example of article about a playwright. Note hyperlinks to articles about some of his plays. There is some description of play content and characters, but vast majority of article is about Miller. David notMD (talk) 09:44, 22 December 2019 (UTC)Reply

Hello again! I fixed it, I wrote only a small paragraph summarizing her career.. would this work? And for the main pic how can I tag that it is free licensed? Can you please help me with that also? I know there is a certain code to tag, but where do I tag it exactly? Also, If the last edit was about the plays and being a coatrack article and I've fix it all, would it get declined again?

Hello Manar Wehbe. The nature of your edits gives the impression you have an undisclosed financial stake in promoting a topic, but 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:Manar Wehbe. The template {{Paid}} can be used for this purpose – e.g. in the form: {{paid|user=Manar Wehbe|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, do not edit further until you answer this message. Praxidicae (talk) 13:31, 23 December 2019 (UTC)Reply

Hello again! Thanks for helping. What if there is a COI according to the terms, but it is not paid? The biography is of a notable theatre director and the references are cited. How can we work on this? And if there is not a COI what can I do here? Plus I don't understand when do I tag the COI exactly, I just tag it in the user page and that's it? thank again.

You are still required to disclose your conflict of interest, you can see how to do so at WP:DISCLOSE. Do you have a conflict of interest or not? Praxidicae (talk) 13:50, 23 December 2019 (UTC)Reply

Hello again! I am not sure I have. I have worked with the director before as a stage manager, but she is not paying me to publish the article. I also wrote it in a neutral way listing her career and a biography since she is very famous and notable in my country. But still don't understand should I tag a general COI on the draft or I should rewrite it after tagging? Ive tagged it on Talk draft page of the article as general COI since I am not being paid and since Ive done my own research and it is written in a neutral point of view and The info was gathered from the articles. Kindly check it for me to see if we can publish it now or not.

Speedy deletion nomination of Rafik El Hariri Illustrator

edit

Hello Manar Wehbe,

I wanted to let you know that I just tagged Rafik El Hariri Illustrator 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. Thanks!

Message delivered via the Page Curation tool, on behalf of the reviewer.

Hello John, Thank you for Reviewing my article. I am still Editing it, but I see Rafik is a very notable artist in Lebanon. And this is not promotional as much as it is listing his own work. How can we fix that?

Hello Ive fixed it- removed sentences that sounded like romoting him. What do you think now?

Speedy deletion nomination of Rafik El Hariri Illustrator

edit
 

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 Rafik El Hariri Illustrator, 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.
