An extended welcome

Welcome to Wikipedia. I hope you don't mind if I share some of my thoughts on starting out as a new editor on Wikipedia: If I could get editors in your situation to follow just one piece of advice, it would be this: Learn Wikipedia by working only on non-contentious topics until you have a feel for the normal editing process and the policies that usually come up when editing casually. You'll find editing to be fun, easy, and rewarding. The rare disputes are resolved quickly and easily.

Working on biographical information about living persons is far more difficult. Wikipedia's Biographies of living persons policy requires strict adherence to multiple content policies, and applies to all information about living persons including talk pages.

If you have a relationship with the topics you want to edit, then you will need to review Wikipedia's Conflict of interest policy, which may require you to disclose your relationship and restrict your editing depending upon how you are affiliated with the subject matter.

Some topic areas within Wikipedia have special editing restrictions that apply to all editors. It's best to avoid these topics until you are extremely familiar with all relevant policies and guidelines.

I hope you find some useful information in all this, and welcome again. --Ronz (talk) 19:20, 26 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

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 Kang and Co Solicitors Limited requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a company, corporation or organization, but it does not credibly indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please read more about what is generally accepted as notable.

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.

Hi Trufflegoblin. I'd hoped you would have noticed and commented on my breakdown of your first edit to Naveen Jain. I've not gone into such detail with your second edit because it's more of the same, but this time the sourcing is poorer and the content more promotional in nature. I hope we can discuss this further. --Ronz (talk) 22:22, 16 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Ronz, you undid the whole edit I made the other day, which I found surprising. I've used Wikipedia for a decade and I'm afraid I don't know what the acronym SOAP stands for, you seem to use it a lot so I'd love an explanation! I'm sure there were elements of the edit I made that could easily have been left in, so please tell me what specific issues you had so I can adapt the content until it fits into the article. Sorry if this is a bit of hassle but I can't be the only person who wants to see this article expanded, so I'd be a lot happier if you could undo the edit then give specific reasons for each part you're taking out. Thanks in advance! Trufflegoblin (talk) 05:22, 18 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]
