Hello, I'm Jim1138. I noticed that in this edit to Reza Deghati, you removed content without adequately explaining why. In the future, it would be helpful to others if you described your changes to Wikipedia with an edit summary. If this was a mistake, don't worry, the removed content has been restored. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks. Jim1138 (talk) 09:05, 5 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, Delazadd. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about in the page Reza Deghati, you may have a conflict of interest (COI). Editors with a COI 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, company, organization or competitors;
propose changes on the talk pages of affected articles (see the {{request edit}} template);
disclose your COI when discussing affected articles (see WP:DISCLOSE);
avoid linking to your organization's website in other articles (see WP:SPAM);
do your best to comply with Wikipedia's content policies.

In addition, you must disclose your employer, client, and affiliation with respect to any contribution for which you receive, or expect to receive, compensation (see WP:PAID).

Also please note that editing for the purpose of advertising, publicising, or promoting anyone or anything is not permitted. Thank you. Jim1138 (talk) 10:40, 5 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for your answer. I understand your remarks. First of all to be clear I do not receive any compensation for that. I often modify articles such as sport events after watching a game. I had this information from a direct source so I thought it might be good to add it. Adding information on someone with direct source is not for advertising or promoting it is adding correct information.

Having an article on someone with a lot of dead links is not for me the best of quality for an article. If I have the link and a text written on the person why shouldn't I add it? Don't you think big events, personalities or companies have people to write their wikipedia profiles with accurate informations and plenty of links?

I can understand the problem of COI in Wikipedia but having accurate information and wanting to develop the article is not for me COI. I would even say it helps the wikipedia community. I'm willing to work hands in hands with another member if needed.

Thanks for your understanding

Best Regards

Leo

Image of Marcella Nunez-Smith

Hi! I've tagged c:File:Marcella Nunez-Smith.jpg for speedy deletion, as this appears to be the image from her university homepage, which Yale do not make available under broad enough permissions that we can use it here; and for which the copyright (and therefore ability to license) is still held by the original photographer.

If you think this is a mistake, please use the "Challenge Speedy Deletion" button on the image page, to start a discussion about the image, and explain why Commons should be permitted to host it. (The default terms from Yale do not allow the freedom to alter the image, nor the freedom to re-use it commercially, both of which are required for images on Commons).

If by the time you read this the image has already been deleted, you can ask at c:Commons:Undeletion_requests for it to be restored, if you can clarify why it is okay to use the image and why it has the permissions Commons needs.

It's a great image, and I am sorry to be the bearer of unwelcome news, but WP cannot trample over other people's copyrights. If we host an image, and encourage others to re-use it, we have to know that that use is legal, and that the image is indeed okay to modify or re-use, including commercially.
