User talk:Mnachtrab

Welcome!

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

I noticed 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 undone for this very reason.

To reduce the chances of your contributions being undone, you might like to draft your revised article before submission, and then ask me or another editor to proofread it. See our help page on userspace drafts for more details. 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.

One 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. Wikipedia generally does not allow editors to have usernames which imply that the account belongs to a company or corporation. If you have a username like this, you should request a change of username or create a new account. (A name that identifies the user as an individual within a given organization may be OK.)

In addition, if you receive, or expect to receive, compensation for any contribution you make, you must disclose your employer, client, and affiliation to comply with our terms of use and our policy on paid editing.

Here are some pages that you might find helpful:

• Best practices for editors with close associations
• The five pillars of Wikipedia
• Contributing to Wikipedia
• Tutorial
• How to edit a page and How to develop articles
• How to create your first article (using the Article Wizard if you wish)
• Simplified Manual of Style

I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Please sign your messages on talk pages using four tildes (~~~~); this will automatically insert your username and the date. If you need help, check out Wikipedia:Questions, ask me on my talk page, or ask your question on this page and then place {{Help me}} before the question. Again, welcome!

Speedy deletion nomination of Draft:Nemsys

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.

You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on Draft:Nemsys, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page seems to be unambiguous advertising which only promotes a company, group, product, service, person, or point of view and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become encyclopedic. Please read the guidelines on spam and Wikipedia:FAQ/Organizations for more information.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator.

Notice of Conflict of interest noticeboard discussion

There is currently a discussion at Wikipedia:Conflict of interest/Noticeboard regarding a possible conflict of interest incident with which you may be involved. Thank you. SandyGeorgia (Talk) 14:52, 1 September 2022 (UTC)

Specifically, Wikipedia:Conflict of interest/Noticeboard#Simufilam. SandyGeorgia (Talk) 14:53, 1 September 2022 (UTC)

Managing a conflict of interest

Hello, Mnachtrab. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about on the page Cassava Sciences, 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 {{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 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.

For the avoidance of any doubt, if for example you are a shareholder in Cassava, you should disclose this and only suggest changes on the talk page. SmartSE (talk) 14:56, 1 September 2022 (UTC)

You have been blocked indefinitely from editing Cassava Sciences for disruptive WP:COI edits. The article talk page is still available to you. If you continue to edit in a manner that contradicts our policies and guidelines (including your deleted draft), the block will be broadened..

If you think there are good reasons for being unblocked, please read the guide to appealing blocks, then add the following text below the block notice on your talk page: {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}}.  Jezebel's Ponyo^{bons mots} 15:47, 1 September 2022 (UTC)

This user is asking that their block be reviewed:

Request reason:

I am new to WIKI. I understand I have a small conflict of interest because I do hold stock in Cassava. I posted the conflict of interest on my page. Because I am new to WIKI I did not understand the issues I caused by just editing all the areas of the page. I will be much more cautious with my edits to make sure my conflict of interest are harmless noncontroversial edits. Any substantial edits I will raise through the talk page and suggest before I do them Mnachtrab (talk) 16:52, 1 September 2022 (UTC)

Notes:

• In some cases, you may not in fact be blocked, or your block has already expired. Please check the list of active blocks. If no block is listed, then you have been autoblocked by the automated anti-vandalism systems. Please remove this request and follow these instructions instead for quick attention by an administrator.
• Please read our guide to appealing blocks to make sure that your unblock request will help your case. You may change your request at any time.

Administrator use only:

Small conflict of interest? And you have not yet disclosed whether you have any personal relationship to Alzheimer's disease and its research that might be influencing your edits. Your COI editing is also disrupting the article talk page and impeding progress on the article. I suggest WP:NOTHERE applies in spades. SandyGeorgia (Talk) 17:04, 1 September 2022 (UTC)

I am not disrupting the article talk page and disrupting progress. I am working to help get bias out of the page and get more truth in. People who are editing the page now must have bias to put words like "scheme" to describe a compensation plan.

People interested in a company or topic does not exclude them from having a say. FYI, nearly everyone in the world has a connection to Alzheimer's disease.

Do you have any personal relationship to Alzheimer's disease? I am starting to suspect you have some sort of conflict of interest to start to make claims that my connection to a disease make me unable to make informed suggestions even on the talk page. Mnachtrab (talk) 18:15, 1 September 2022 (UTC)

Re your "my connection to a disease"; have you promoted Cassava Sciences as holding the best yet solution to such "connection"? SandyGeorgia (Talk) 18:23, 1 September 2022 (UTC)

It's not proven to be that yet as they need to complete phase 3. The phase 2 1 year adas-cog11 data is the best data among all the other trial data I have reviewed. I have reviewed about 160 studies of AD treatments. Any treatment that safely helps AD patients would be a great treatment. I don't see how that would cause any issues being able to fairly edit the page. I find it odd that you are suggesting a person with a connection to a common disease is a conflict of interest to write about a company that has a treatment for the disease.

In addition to creating the G11 Draft:Nemsys. SandyGeorgia (Talk) 18:05, 1 September 2022 (UTC)

Blocking admin note: The partial block was meant to stop immediate disruption. If any reviewing admin believes the block should be modified to site-wide, please go ahead.-- Jezebel's Ponyo^{bons mots} 17:35, 1 September 2022 (UTC)

It continues on article talk at 17:17 1 September. WP:NOTHERE, suggest a full block. SandyGeorgia (Talk) 18:10, 1 September 2022 (UTC)

I am answering Sandy's questions. This isn't fair and is squashing reasonable input to a wiki page about a company. Mnachtrab (talk) 20:29, 1 September 2022 (UTC)

Why would a couple days worth of questions and edits block me from editing the main site and the talk page? If this is followed through on, I will be escalating to get SandyGeorgia removed as reviewing admin. I do not think you are looking at the way she is communicating https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Ponyo Mnachtrab (talk) 20:34, 1 September 2022 (UTC)
