Your submission at Articles for creation: BRE Academy (March 12)

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed! Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reason left by Quasar G. was:

This submission's references do not adequately show the subject's notability. Wikipedia requires significant coverage about the subject in reliable sources that are independent of the subject—see the guidelines on the notability of organizations and companies and the golden rule. Please improve the submission's referencing (see Wikipedia:Referencing for beginners), so that the information is verifiable, and there is clear evidence of why the subject is notable and worthy of inclusion in an encyclopedia. If additional reliable sources cannot be found for the subject, then it may not be suitable for Wikipedia at this time.

The comment the reviewer left was:

Most sources are primary, or simple passing mentions. More reliable, secondary sources (likes news articles) are required to demonstrate notability. Also, instead of including external links in the body of the article, use footnotes to cite your sources.

Please check the submission for any additional comments left by the reviewer. You are encouraged to edit the submission to address the issues raised and resubmit when they have been resolved.

If you would like to continue working on the submission, go to Draft:BRE Academy and click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window.
If you need any assistance, you can ask for help at the Articles for creation help desk or on the reviewer's talk page.
You can also use Wikipedia's real-time chat help from experienced editors.

Your draft article, Draft:BRE Academy

Hello, Claireatwaves. It has been over six months since you last edited the Articles for Creation submission or Draft page you started, "BRE Academy".

In accordance with our policy that Wikipedia is not for the indefinite hosting of material deemed unsuitable for the encyclopedia mainspace, the draft has been nominated for deletion. If you plan on working on it further, or editing it to address the issues raised if it was declined, simply edit the submission and remove the {{db-afc}}, {{db-draft}}, or {{db-g13}} code.

If your submission has already been deleted by the time you get there, and you wish to retrieve it, you can request its undeletion by following the instructions at this link. An administrator will, in most cases, restore the submission so you can continue to work on it.

Thanks for your submission to Wikipedia, and happy editing. Legacypac (talk) 16:44, 19 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

April 2020

Hello, and thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. This is just a note to let you know that I've moved the draft that you were working on to Draft:Mark Lewis (designer), from its old location at User:Claireatwaves/Mark St John Lewis. This has been done because the Draft namespace is the preferred location for Articles for Creation submissions. Please feel free to continue to work on it there. If you have any questions about this, you are welcome to ask me on my talk page. Thank you. Sulfurboy (talk) 20:42, 14 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Editing with a possible paid conflict of interest

Hello Claireatwaves. The nature of your edits gives the impression you have an undisclosed financial stake in promoting a topic, but you have not complied with Wikipedia's mandatory paid editing disclosure requirements. Paid advocacy is a category of conflict of interest (COI) editing that involves being compensated by a person, group, company or organization to use Wikipedia to promote their interests. Undisclosed paid advocacy is prohibited by our policies on neutral point of view and what Wikipedia is not, and is an especially egregious type of COI; the Wikimedia Foundation regards it as a "black hat" practice akin to black-hat SEO.

Paid advocates are very strongly discouraged from direct article editing, and should instead propose changes on the talk page of the article in question if an article exists, and if it does not, from attempting to write an article at all. At best, any proposed article creation should be submitted through the articles for creation process, rather than directly.

Regardless, if you are receiving or expect to receive compensation for your edits, broadly construed, you are required by the Wikimedia Terms of Use to disclose your employer, client and affiliation. You can post such a mandatory disclosure to your user page at User:Claireatwaves. The template {{Paid}} can be used for this purpose – e.g. in the form: {{paid|user=Claireatwaves|employer=InsertName|client=InsertName}}. If I am mistaken – you are not being directly or indirectly compensated for your edits – please state that in response to this message. Otherwise, please provide the required disclosure. In either case, do not edit further until you answer this message. Template:Z159--SamHolt6 (talk) 22:09, 14 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Resolved, I hope - apologies. Mark is a family friend, so I'd missed declaring

April 2020

As previously advised, your edits, such as the edit you made to Draft:Mark St John Lewis, give the impression you have a financial stake in promoting a topic, but you have not complied with Wikipedia's mandatory paid editing disclosure requirements. You were asked to cease editing until you responded by either stating that you are not being directly or indirectly compensated for your edits, or by complying with the mandatory requirements under the Wikimedia Terms of Use that you disclose your employer, client and affiliation. Again, you can post such a disclosure on your user page at User:Claireatwaves, and the template {{Paid}} can be used for this purpose – e.g. in the form: {{paid|user=Claireatwaves|employer=InsertName|client=InsertName}}. Please respond before making any other edits to Wikipedia. Template:Z160 Sulfurboy (talk) 13:21, 17 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

HI, this was done. The original Mark Lewis entry has been proposed for deletion.

My interest is not financial, but HAS been declared

All the references are now inline and have been beefed up with further references and links.

I hope it now reads ok.

I also have a picture to add - I have confirmation from a photographer that we can use their image copyright free and will upload this over the weekend.

Thanks for your patience - let me know if there is anything else I need to do.

I have a page to put up on Adult grooming as well so while it's unrelated, this learning process won't have been wasted.

THank you Claire
