User talk:Benjamin Karaoglan
Welcome!
[edit]Hello, Benjamin Karaoglan, 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

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, visit the Teahouse, 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! Jimfbleak - talk to me? 13:26, 9 June 2024 (UTC)

COI
[edit]You have an obvious conflict of interest, please don't write about yourself, your friends or relatives and read the guidance below:
- When you write about a person, you must provide independent verifiable sources to enable us to verify the facts and show that they meet the notability guidelines. Sources that are not acceptable include those linked to the person or an associated organisation, press releases, YouTube, IMDB, social media and other sites that can be self-edited, blogs, websites of unknown or non-reliable provenance, and sites that are just reporting what the person claims or interviewing them. Note that references should be in-line so we can tell what fact each is supporting, and should not be bare urls.
- Your only sources were an interview with her and an entry in Theatre.com, which can be self-edited and is a sales site.
- You must write in a non-promotional tone. Articles must be neutral and encyclopaedic, with verifiable facts, not opinions or reviews.
- Better, but avoid "dedicated", "numerous".
- There shouldn't be any url links in the article, only in the "References" or "External links" sections.
- You must not copy text from elsewhere. Copyrighted text is not allowed in Wikipedia, as outlined in this policy. That applies even to pages created by you or your organisation, unless they state clearly and explicitly that the text is public domain. We require that text posted here can be used, modified and distributed for any purpose, including commercial; text is considered to be copyright unless explicitly stated otherwise. There are ways to donate copyrighted text to Wikipedia, as described here; please note that simply asserting on the talk page that you are the owner of the copyright, or you have permission to use the text, isn't sufficient.
- This is en-wiki, wikilink to the English Wikipedia, not the French, so Hamlet, Garcia Lorca etc
Before attempting to write an article again, please make sure that the topic meets the notability criteria linked above, and check that you can find independent third party sources. Also read Your first article. If you are writing about yourself, or someone you know as a friend, colleague, client, employer or relative, you have a conflict of interest, and you must disclose the nature of that COI. Jimfbleak - talk to me? 15:28, 10 June 2024 (UTC)
- If you have a financial relationship, eg as her manager or agent, complete {{paid|user=Benjamin Karaoglan|client= Edith Vernes}} as you see it here, and save it at User:Benjamin Karaoglan. If she is a friend or colleague, put {{Connected contributor|User1= Benjamin Karaoglan}} on the article's talk page Jimfbleak - talk to me? 15:50, 10 June 2024 (UTC)
- Thank you for your valuable help and guidance. I have update the COI both on the article's talk page and on my User Profile. I don't know if you have access to my Draft:Edith Vernes, but if so, do you believe it's neutral enough ? --Benjamin Karaoglan (talk) 16:11, 10 June 2024 (UTC)
- Thanks for the email. If you look at the start of this section, most of my text is actually preliminary comments on the draft. As it stands, it has no chance of being accepted for the reasons I've stated, essentially that your text is entirely lacking in proper references, and although you have given wikilinks, they should be to en-wiki articles, not fr-wiki Jimfbleak - talk to me? 10:50, 11 June 2024 (UTC)
- Thank you for your answer. I have now matched fr wikilinks to their corresponding e-wikilinks. However, for some cases, their only exists fr articles. For now I have left them, but I was wondering if wikipedia guidelines indicated to remove all non en-articles even if the en equivalent doesn't exist ? Equally, I've came up with more references, but I was under the impression reading your point on the Sources that they weren't considered as reliable by Wikipedia. What's your take on this aspect of the article ? Benjamin Karaoglan (talk) 12:13, 11 June 2024 (UTC)

- I will see your messages here if you start them with User:Jimfbleak and sign them in the same edit.
- There are links like Théâtre du Palais-Royal, William Shakespeare you could add, not sure about the French links where the en-wiki doesn't exist, leave for now. YouTube is not acceptable, and reviewers using the script will see it coloured red.
- Her notability, if any, will be clearer if you indicate the roles she has played in the theatre and cinema. Acting Ophelia in a professional production may be notable, playing a servant probably isn't. She doesn't seem tom have had a major role in Hamlet?
- At some stage you will have to submit this for review, which may help since I don't know enough about your acting refs to access their quality Jimfbleak - talk to me? 15:23, 11 June 2024 (UTC)
- User:Jimfbleak Ok, duly noted. Thank you again for all your valuable help and guidance. Benjamin Karaoglan (talk) 15:44, 11 June 2024 (UTC)
