Managing a conflict of interest

edit

  Hello, Samz73428091. 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:David Felinton, 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. Cabayi (talk) 08:08, 14 October 2022 (UTC)Reply

AFC tag

Removing the Articles for Creation tag removes the tools you need to help you submit the draft for review when you're ready. Cabayi (talk) 08:07, 16 October 2022 (UTC)Reply

  Hello. Your recent edit to Pikesville High School appears to have added the name of a non-notable entity to a list that normally includes only notable entries. In general, a person, organization or product added to a list should have a pre-existing article before being added to most lists. If you wish to create such an article, please first confirm that the subject qualifies for a separate, stand-alone article according to Wikipedia's notability guideline. Thank you.

Your submission at Articles for creation: David Felinton (January 16)

edit

{{subst:Afc decline|full=Draft:David Felinton|cv=no|reason=bio|details=|reason2=|details2=|comment=Well done on creating the draft, and it may potentially meet the relevant requirements (including WP:GNG, WP:ANYBIO) but presently does not. As you may know, Wikipedia's basic requirement for entry is that the subject is notable. Essentially subjects are presumed notable if they have received significant coverage in multiple published secondary sources that are reliable, intellectually independent of each other, and independent of the subject. To properly create such a draft page, please see referencing for beginners or the article Easier Referencing for Beginners. Please note that you must declare if you have a conflict in interest in creating this draft, as was posted onto your [Talk Page. Additionally, the draft seems to base the notability of the subject on the basis he was mayor of Huntington, however such a position is not inherently notable-- please see article. Please familiarise yourself with these pages before amending the draft. If you feel you can meet these requirements then resubmit the page and ping me and I would be happy to reassess. |sig=yes}}

 
Hello, Samz73428091! Having an article draft declined at Articles for Creation can be disappointing. If you are wondering why your article submission was declined, please post a question at the Articles for creation help desk. If you have any other questions about your editing experience, we'd love to help you at the Teahouse, a friendly space on Wikipedia where experienced editors lend a hand to help new editors like yourself! See you there! Cabrils (talk) 10:05, 16 January 2023 (UTC)Reply

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited List of faculty and alumni of Marshall University, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Joe Goddard. Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)
