Email

Please communicate with me here, on-wiki, regarding Wikipedia matters. You may use this talk page (please ping me if you do), or my user talk page (no need to ping me there) or the talk page of the article in dispute (no need to ping me there either; I'm watching that page). I reserve email contact only for matters of such confidentiality that they cannot be discussed in the public eye of Wikipedia. WikiDan61^ChatMe!_ReadMe!! 21:55, 16 May 2023 (UTC)

Managing a conflict of interest

Hello, Marchio Ephesi. 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, clients, or competitors;
• propose changes on the talk pages of affected articles (you can use the {{edit COI}} 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 Wikipedia:Spam § External link spamming);
• 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. ~~ AirshipJungleman29 (talk) 01:08, 12 November 2023 (UTC)

Makes sense, thank you! I'll try to stay out of the COI @AirshipJungleman29 Marchio Ephesi (talk) 16:38, 13 November 2023 (UTC)

This is your only warning; if you create an inappropriate page again, you may be blocked from editing without further notice. ~~ AirshipJungleman29 (talk) 01:09, 12 November 2023 (UTC)

Thanks for the revision! Marchio Ephesi (talk) 10:57, 12 November 2023 (UTC)

Your edit to Marchioness of Laodicea has been removed in whole or in part, as it appears to have added copyrighted material to Wikipedia without evidence of permission from the copyright holder. If you are the copyright holder, please read Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials for more information on uploading your material to Wikipedia. For legal reasons, Wikipedia cannot accept copyrighted material, including text or images from print publications or from other websites, without an appropriate and verifiable license. All such contributions will be deleted. You may use external websites or publications as a source of information, but not as a source of content, such as sentences or images—you must write using your own words. Wikipedia takes copyright very seriously, and persistent violators of our copyright policy will be blocked from editing. See Wikipedia:Copying text from other sources for more information. – DreamRimmer (talk) 10:41, 12 November 2023 (UTC)

Thanks for the revision @DreamRimmer! I apologize for being new to WP, therefore I didn't know how to properly sustain the article with sources.

Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you copied or moved text from Laodicea on the Lycus into another page. While you are welcome to re-use Wikipedia's content, here or elsewhere, Wikipedia's licensing does require that you provide attribution to the original contributor(s). When copying within Wikipedia, this is supplied at minimum in an edit summary at the page into which you've copied content, disclosing the copying and linking to the copied page, e.g., copied content from [[page name]]; see that page's history for attribution. It is good practice, especially if copying is extensive, to also place a properly formatted {{copied}} template on the talk pages of the source and destination. Please provide attribution for this duplication if it has not already been supplied by another editor, and if you have copied material between pages before, even if it was a long time ago, you should provide attribution for that also. You can read more about the procedure and the reasons at Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia. Thank you. Whpq (talk) 14:34, 13 November 2023 (UTC)

Copy that, thanks @Whpq! Marchio Ephesi (talk) 16:36, 13 November 2023 (UTC)

Advice

Hello, Marchio Ephesi,

I was just going to suggest that the only way that these articles are going to survive, giving how the AFD discussions are going, are for you to request them be "Draftified" or moved to Draft space or moved to your User space. This won't completely prevent them from being deleted if that's what the consensus is but if you want to continue to work on them, they have a better chance to exist in Draft or User space than main space of the project. Liz ^{Read! Talk!} 06:06, 13 November 2023 (UTC)

@Liz absolutely, that'd be far better than complete deletion. I'll work on collecting permissions and sources, meantime. Thanks! Marchio Ephesi (talk) 16:35, 13 November 2023 (UTC)
