Hello, PublisherChad, and welcome to Wikipedia! I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Unfortunately, one or more of the pages you created, such as User:PublisherChad, may not conform to some of Wikipedia's content policies and may not be retained. In short, the topic of an article must be notable and have already been the subject of publication by reliable and independent sources.

Please review Your first article for an overview of the article creation process. The Article Wizard is available to help you create an article, where it will be reviewed and considered for publication. For information on how to request a new article that can be created by someone else, see Requested articles. If you are stuck, come to the Teahouse, where experienced Wikipedians can help you through the processes.

New to Wikipedia? Please consider taking a look at our introductory tutorial or reviewing the contributing to Wikipedia page to learn the basics about editing. Below are a few other good pages about article creation.

I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Please sign your name on talk pages using four tildes (~~~~); this will automatically produce your name and the date. If you have any questions, ask me on my talk page. You can also type {{help me}} on this page, followed by your question, and someone will show up shortly to answer your questions. Again, welcome! Hey man im josh (talk) 16:22, 13 September 2022 (UTC)Reply

Speedy deletion nomination of User:PublisherChad

edit
 

A tag has been placed on your user page, User:PublisherChad, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page appears to be advertising which only promotes or publicises someone or something. Promotional editing of any kind is not permitted, whether it be promotion of a person, company, product, group, service, belief, or anything else. This is a violation of our policies regarding acceptable use of user pages — user pages are intended for active editors of Wikipedia to communicate with one another as part of the process of creating encyclopedic content, and should not be mistaken for free webhosting resources or advertising space. Please read the guidelines on spam, the guidelines on user pages, and, especially, our FAQ for Organizations.

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.

Managing a conflict of interest

edit

  Hello, PublisherChad. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about on the page The Chronicle (Centralia, Washington), 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:

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. SounderBruce 20:50, 16 October 2023 (UTC)Reply

I don't think that adding the owners name (Mine) or the price of our publication violates any of the rules is that what you're saying? PublisherChad (talk) 21:03, 16 October 2023 (UTC)Reply

Umm...why?

edit

Just noticed the revert over at The Chronicle (Centralia, Washington), seen here [1]

I'll start with this first :

If you are undoing an edit that is not vandalism, explain the reason in the edit summary. Do not use the default message only.

So...that's why I'm asking.

Second, seems like you're professionally connected to the article and because of that, you are required to divulge that on your Username space...please do so, it's a big deal and can help you more as a Wiki-editor in the long run. Not trying to be jerkish, just a heads up.

Third, clearly I'm a big fan of your publication. As such, I'm not seeing how the mention of this lawsuit from Joe Kent is outside the scope of Wikipedia. Not even sure how it hurts the newspaper...badge of honor, no?

Hope to have a pleasant discussion about it. Oh, and can you ask The Chronicle staff to write up an article from time to time focusing, with a refreshed take, on the history of towns and communities, even parks and longheld events, in Lewis? Like, can you all find anything on Draft:Ruth, Washington!!! Big ask - just my own request based on massive curiosity!

If you feel more comfortable shifting this discussion to the Talk:The Chronicle (Centralia, Washington) page, have at it and I'll see you there!

Thanks!
