User talk:Alea2020

Hello, Alea2020. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about in the page Atrium Health, 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 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.

I am bringing this to your attention and asking the question (are you related to Atrium Health in any way?) because it seems that this article is the only one you have edited, and you appear to have a particular interest in it which, as Oshwah pointed out in removing some of your edits, read like advertising material. Thanks, and happy days, Lindsay^Hello 14:14, 20 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Wikipedia and copyright[edit]

Hello Alea2020, and welcome to Wikipedia. Your additions to Atrium Health have been removed in whole or in part, as they appear to have added copyrighted content without evidence that the source material is in the public domain or has been released by its owner or legal agent under a suitably-free and compatible copyright license. (To request such a release, see Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission.) While we appreciate your contributions to Wikipedia, there are certain things you must keep in mind about using information from sources to avoid copyright and plagiarism issues.

You can only copy/translate a small amount of a source, and you must mark what you take as a direct quotation with double quotation marks (") and cite the source using an inline citation. You can read about this at Wikipedia:Non-free content in the sections on "text". See also Help:Referencing for beginners, for how to cite sources here.
Aside from limited quotation, you must put all information in your own words and structure, in proper paraphrase. Following the source's words too closely can create copyright problems, so it is not permitted here; see Wikipedia:Close paraphrasing. Even when using your own words, you are still, however, asked to cite your sources to verify the information and to demonstrate that the content is not original research.
We have strict guidelines on the usage of copyrighted images. Fair use images must meet all ten of the non-free content criteria in order to be used in articles, or they will be deleted. All other images must be made available under a free and open license that allows commercial and derivative reuse to be used on Wikipedia.
If you own the copyright to the source you want to copy or are a legally designated agent, you may be able to license that text so that we can publish it here. Understand, though, that unlike many other sites, where a person can license their content for use there and retain non-free ownership, that is not possible at Wikipedia. Rather, the release of content must be irrevocable, to the world, into the public domain (PD) or under a suitably-free and compatible copyright license. Such a release must be done in a verifiable manner, so that the authority of the person purporting to release the copyright is evidenced. See Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials.
Also note that Wikipedia articles may not be copied or translated without attribution. If you want to copy or translate from another Wikipedia project or article, you must follow the copyright attribution steps in Wikipedia:Translation#How to translate. See also Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia.

It's very important that contributors understand and follow these practices, as policy requires that people who persistently do not must be blocked from editing. If you have any questions about this, you are welcome to leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. Moneytrees🏝️^{Talk🌴Help out at CCI!} 16:05, 13 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

COI edits[edit]

Hi Alea2020. Thanks for disclosing your conflict of interest regarding Atrium Health; however, I have noticed that you have been editing the article directly, which is strongly discouraged by our conflict of interest guidelines; instead, it would be better if you used edit requests for any potentially controversial additions. We have a handy wizard for that at WP:ERW. Much of the language that you have been inserting into the article isn't appropriate for an encyclopaedia; plainly quoting self descriptions like One of the organization’s priorities is to be a "leading innovator" in healthcare. Atrium Health’s President and CEO Eugene A. Woods has said the vision of the organization is to, “build a ‘Silicon Valley’ for healthcare innovation spanning from Winston-Salem to Charlotte.” [...] Atrium Health’s mission is to “improve health, elevate hope and advance healing – for all.” is a pretty stark violation of our neutral point of view policy. Again, I want to ask you to not edit articles directly. Feel free to message me if you have any questions or concerns. Best, Blablubbs|talk 18:41, 22 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Having looked at the article some more (and removed large swaths of purely promotional material), I think I need to be more explicit: Wikipedia is not a platform for advertising, and editors who repeatedly insert promotional material may be sanctioned.
