Hi, and thank you for creating an account to edit Wikipedia. Although I fully understand your desire to dive right in, many of our articles are semi-protected because they are controversial, prone to vandalism, or other reasons. As a new editor with few edits, it might be wise to discuss your edits on the article talkpage in order to gain consensus for your edits, and then use {{Edit semi-protected}} to request the edit be performed. I only recommend this until you're used to the challenges of reliable sources, the biographies of living persons policy, and other similar policies. The good news is that fewer than 5% of Wikipedia articles are protected; this means that 95% of the articles can use your help right now!— xaosflux Talk 03:21, 9 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

NPOV and promotion

Hello Ohare415. While your contributions are appreciated, please ensure that you understand our requirement of neutrality. Articles must be written in a way that is strictly neutral in both tone and content, and must never promote anyone or anything, including by "talking up". Material such as "...the powerful walk, edgy yet feminine designs, avant-guard, pronounced pouts, heavy smudged eyeliner, and creating captivating atmosphere for it's audience became brand ideals.", "She became internationally known for her urban, powerful, romantic, innovative, and commanding designs.", and "Finding beauty in the overlooked is the most important style and identity of Nina Cuso." is not appropriate for an encyclopedia article. Going forward, please ensure to write in a neutral, not breathless and promotional, tone. Seraphimblade Talk to me 15:24, 9 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Interviews not acceptable as citations

Concerning what is at the moment reference #1 and #10 in the Nina Cuso article:

1. The link in the reference is to the wrong Greg Bernard YouTube clip. What you meant to use is https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OnjLiL-orLY

2. An interview with the subject of a Wikipedia article is not acceptable as a source of content for the article, nor as a reference. Any content about a person has to be based on published work by an independent source.

I strongly suggest that you remove all content that stems from that interview and also delete the interview as a reference. David notMD (talk) 01:03, 10 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Final warning

I hoped that asking nicely would help, but apparently it did not, even after you've now been counseled by several people. So let's be a little clearer.

Stop icon You may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you use Wikipedia for soapboxing, promotion or advertising.

Don't use positive pull quotes. Fluff doesn't become not-fluff because it's wrapped in quotation marks. Stick to facts only. Not a bunch of fluff about people's impressions of her, positioned in the middle of a sentence as a fact in a pull quote. If you need some time to figure it out, move it back to draft and use articles for creation. But if you put spam in the article once again, you'll get blocked.

All I have done is ask questions and try to get the right information out there. We should be helping eachother. Wikipedia is in enough trouble of not having enough people on here. It is a community. :(


Why? I legit was just adding useful information. Also, my IP address can have more than one person using one computer.

We can do without sockpuppeteers, thank you, as the preferred number of those on Wikipedia is zero. Sockpuppeting (or meatpuppeting, if you insist that four people were using your computer) is an abuse of the community. And what you're doing looks an awful lot like undisclosed paid promotion, and this isn't the first time I've run across that either. That is also an abuse of the community. But socking, especially with that many accounts, is pretty much a "one and done" offense, especially when combined with spamming. Of course, if you still disagree, the instructions for filing an appeal are in the block message above. Seraphimblade Talk to me 02:50, 11 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]
