Welcome[edit]

Hello, Michelemier, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions.

I notice that one of the first articles you edited appears to be dealing with a topic with which you may have a conflict of interest. In other words, you may find it difficult to write about that topic in a neutral and objective way, because you are, work for, or represent, the subject of that article. Your recent contributions may have already been reverted for this very reason.

To reduce the chances of deletion, you might like to draft your article before submission, then ask me or any other editor to proofread it. To start creating a draft article, just click your user name at the top of the screen when you are logged in, and edit that page as you would any other. If the page you created has already been deleted from Wikipedia, but you want to save the content from it to use for that draft, don't hesitate to ask anyone from this list and they will copy it to your user page.

The one firm rule we do have in connection with conflicts of interest is that accounts used by more than one person will unfortunately be blocked from editing. It is also worth noting that Wikipedia generally does not allow editors to have usernames which specifically link them to one company or corporation. If your username does have such a name, it would be advisable for you to request a change of username.

If you are stuck, and looking for help, please come to the New contributors' help page, where experienced Wikipedians can answer any queries you have! You can also just type {{helpme}} on your user page, and someone will show up shortly to answer your questions. Here are a few other good links for newcomers:

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, check out Wikipedia:Where to ask a question or ask me on my talk page. Again, welcome! Cind.amuse 14:45, 1 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

May 2011[edit]

Welcome to Wikipedia. Everyone is welcome to contribute to the encyclopedia, but when you add or change content, as you did to the article Michael Wolff (Consulate-General of Austria), please cite a reliable source for the content of your edit. This helps maintain our policy of verifiability. See Wikipedia:Citing sources for how to cite sources, and the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Thank you.

  • Please revisit the above article. A quick review indicates that 7 of 9 citations fail verification. Information provided in the links above will provide a comprehensive background on the policies and accepted standards pertaining to verification of article content. Articles on Wikipedia require significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject. At this point, while it appears that the article is supported through significant coverage, the sources that actually verify content, are not independent of the subject. Lacking available sources, I recommend that the article is pared down to focus solely on the subject's background as Consulate-General. Anything less may result in deletion of the article. Please feel free to contact me if you have any questions. Best regards, Cind.amuse 15:00, 1 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Nomination of Michael Wolff (consul-general) for deletion[edit]

A discussion is taking place as to whether the article Michael Wolff (consul-general) is suitable for inclusion in Wikipedia according to Wikipedia's policies and guidelines or whether it should be deleted.

The article will be discussed at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Michael Wolff (consul-general) until a consensus is reached, and anyone is welcome to contribute to the discussion. The nomination will explain the policies and guidelines which are of concern. The discussion focuses on high-quality evidence and our policies and guidelines.

Users may edit the article during the discussion, including to improve the article to address concerns raised in the discussion. However, do not remove the article-for-deletion notice from the top of the article. Chetsford (talk) 16:16, 3 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
