@DoubleGrazing hi, what does this mean? How do I resubmit if for publishing? Samwalker22 (talk) 13:16, 9 August 2023 (UTC)

Hi, you don't need to resubmit, the earlier submission is still active and pending (it was only moved manually, not moved as a result of an actual review & acceptance process). I'll take a look at that draft shortly. Best, -- DoubleGrazing (talk) 13:20, 9 August 2023 (UTC)

@DoubleGrazing oh OK thank you, I just logged into wiki on my phone for the first time so I wasn't sure it had moved anything! Samwalker22 (talk) 13:26, 9 August 2023 (UTC)

Managing a conflict of interest

Hello, Samwalker22. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about on the page Draft:Stefan Ytterborn, 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. DoubleGrazing (talk) 13:21, 9 August 2023 (UTC)

DoubleGrazing (talk) 13:44, 9 August 2023 (UTC)

@DoubleGrazing hi thanks for the feedback, are you able to advise which sources *don't* meet the GNG? You said thay some "technically" meet the standard but I'd like to know which so that I can keep/delete as appropriate. It's my first time creating a Wiki page so I'm still learning, all the information is genuine so I'm unsure where the lines are drawn. Thank you! Samwalker22 (talk) 13:55, 9 August 2023 (UTC)

The AV one might. What I meant with my comment was that there are some that might contribute to the notability of some of his businesses, but not towards his.

Please respond to the conflict of interest query above, before editing further. Thank you. -- DoubleGrazing (talk) 13:59, 9 August 2023 (UTC)

@DoubleGrazing sorry what's the conflict of interest you're referring to? Samwalker22 (talk) 14:03, 9 August 2023 (UTC)

See the previous section, 'Managing a conflict of interest'; I was asking what sort of a relationship you might have outside Wikipedia with Ytterborn? -- DoubleGrazing (talk) 15:47, 9 August 2023 (UTC)

@DoubleGrazing oh I see, I don't have any professional relationship with him at all, I'm just a hired writer. I'm aware of being neutral with all the information so I've tried to make it sound non-praising! I'll have a look at the references today Samwalker22 (talk) 07:52, 10 August 2023 (UTC)

Understood, thanks. In that case, you must make a paid-editing disclosure ASAP. I'll post another message below with more info. -- DoubleGrazing (talk) 07:54, 10 August 2023 (UTC)

August 2023

Hello Samwalker22. The nature of your edits, such as the one you made to Draft:Stefan Ytterborn, 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 serious type of COI; the Wikimedia Foundation regards it as a "black hat" practice akin to black-hat search-engine optimization.

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. If the article does not exist, paid advocates are extremely strongly discouraged 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:Samwalker22. The template {{Paid}} can be used for this purpose – e.g. in the form: {{paid|user=Samwalker22|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. DoubleGrazing (talk) 07:55, 10 August 2023 (UTC)

@DoubleGrazing Crikey this is complicated now! OK so my employer is Sol & Matheson Communications, a PR agency - their client is CAKE, whom Stefan Ytterborn is the CEO of. I've been tasked with creating a page for Ytterborn. I've received information from both Ytterborn himself and from sources related to him in a professional capacity.

Is that enough info? Samwalker22 (talk) 08:01, 10 August 2023 (UTC)

That's enough info, but it's not enough to state that here on your talk page; you need to post a formal (and appropriately formatted) disclosure either on your user page, or on the talk page of every article/draft to which it relates, or preferably both. -- DoubleGrazing (talk) 08:43, 10 August 2023 (UTC)

Ok that's fine, and do I use the Paid template to do that? Also it won't show on the final published page I hope haha. I expect this will be the only Wiki page I edit for the future. Samwalker22 (talk) 08:49, 10 August 2023 (UTC)

Also is it possible to unpublish the page for now? I'm being chased by the client that it shows as declined, so it would be better if it was just unpublished for now while I fix the references etc. Thanks! Samwalker22 (talk) 09:33, 10 August 2023 (UTC)

Or just to hide the draft completely while it gets edited? Samwalker22 (talk) 09:36, 10 August 2023 (UTC)

There is no way of hiding it, a draft is publicly available, even though it isn't published ('publishing' in the Wikipedia context refers to the main article space, where the content becomes available in internal searches, and gets also indexed by search engines outside Wikipedia). The only way to 'unpublish' a draft is to delete it. -- DoubleGrazing (talk) 09:48, 10 August 2023 (UTC)

I've just declared my status too, on my user page and on the Talk page of the Ytterborn article, hopefully that's OK? Samwalker22 (talk) 09:41, 10 August 2023 (UTC)

The disclosure on your user page seems okay, but for the article draft page you need to use Template:Connected contributor (paid). -- DoubleGrazing (talk) 09:49, 10 August 2023 (UTC)

Hi just added it now to the draft page Samwalker22 (talk) 10:32, 10 August 2023 (UTC)

ANI discussion

There is currently a discussion at Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents regarding an issue with which you may have been involved. Thank you. --DoubleGrazing (talk) 19:31, 10 August 2023 (UTC)

@DoubleGrazing hi, I'm sorry I'm just getting lost now, am I able to edit the page again? I find Wikipedia so confusing! Samwalker22 (talk) 19:38, 10 August 2023 (UTC)

You can take part in the discussion at AN/I. You have an opportunity to explain yourself and the conflict of interest. If you wish to continue editing here in general, I would suggest that you be part of the current discussion. A type of cabinet (talk) 22:53, 10 August 2023 (UTC)

@A type of cabinet I would, but I can't see the topic relating to myself and my article on the AN/I page, perhaps if you can point me in the right direction. This is getting silly now. Samwalker22 (talk) 22:59, 10 August 2023 (UTC)

So as I understand the issue is regarding the user Roxanne Thais moving articles around, including mine and someone else's. I don't know what the heck is going on, I just want to be able to edit my article, correct the references as advised by helpful member doublegrazing, and hopefully get it published!
