I recently created a draft for company Historic Propellers and I can't locate it now. Has it been deleted or is there any way to access the page? May it be published? -thank you!!

The only thing I can find associated with this account is User:VaclavStrzinek/sandbox/Historic Propellers. You could submit it using Articles for Creation, but it is very short and does little more than tell that the company exists. It must meet the notability guidelines for organizations as shown with significant coverage in independent reliable sources. You may want to read Your First Article for more information. 331dot (talk) 18:26, 4 October 2019 (UTC)

Hello, VaclavStrzinek. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about in the page Draft:Historic Propellers, 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, 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. Ahunt (talk) 01:02, 5 October 2019 (UTC)

Thank you for your assistance. I am the founder of Historic Propellers and I disclosed the COI on the Historic Propellers page. I would like to have a page like Culver Props for example. Do the rest of the propeller manufacturers have someone without direct connection who created their pages? I am an expert in construction and design of aircraft propellers, if I wanted to perform an edit on wiki pages with this subject, I will be always connected with the topic, always in the conflict of interest. I guess everyone editing such specialized articles is somehow connected with the topic. I have specialized topics on my websites, which could serve as a reference to this problematics, but adding a reference link would be again a COI. To overcome this problem, I am supposed to "request edit" and disclose COI, if I understand it well. I very much appreciate your precision and interest in keeping the wiki out of spam.

Yes, articles are typically written by independent editors who have taken note of a potential article subject in some way, usually by noticing significant coverage in independent reliable sources. Yes, if you have information you want to contribute to an article for which you have a COI, you should make a formal edit request(click for instructions) on the article talk page. If you want to write a new article, you may submit a draft for an independent review using Articles for Creation. In order to be successful, however, you would essentially need to forget everything you know about Historic Propellers and only write based on the content of independent sources. Most in your position find this difficult(though it is not impossible).

You may also want to declare your COI on your user page, just so it's clear to other users who might go there first instead of the article talk page. 331dot (talk) 09:11, 5 October 2019 (UTC)

I can confirm what was written above. A few years ago the collection of editors at WP:WikiProject Aircraft decided we would do a push to get as many propeller manufacturer articles created as we could find independent third party references for. As a result we started about 100 articles on all the propeller manufacturers that we could at that time. We have done the same with aircraft engines and aircraft types, as well. This is not the work of company employees, but the work of Wikipedia editors, some of whom are pilots, mechanics or others who have aviation backgrounds and some who are just aviation enthusiasts. The one thing we all share is a desire to create the most complete encyclopedia possible. If you can supply third party references we can compete the work and get the article posted. - Ahunt (talk) 11:55, 5 October 2019 (UTC)
