User talk:Galantev

Welcome!

Hello, Galantev, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions.

I noticed that one of the first articles you edited was Draft:Valerie Galante, which 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.)

Here are some pages that you might find helpful:

• The plain and simple conflict of interest guide
• The five pillars of Wikipedia
• Contributing to Wikipedia
• Tutorial
• How to edit a page and How to develop articles
• How to create your first article (using the Article Wizard if you wish)
• Simplified Manual of Style

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, 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! /wiae /tlk 18:43, 20 February 2016 (UTC)

February 2016

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:Valerie Galante, from its old location at User:Galantev/sandbox/Valerie Galante, Ph.D.. 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. /wiae /tlk 18:43, 20 February 2016 (UTC)

Your submission at Articles for creation: Valerie Galante (February 25)

{{subst:Afc decline|full=Draft:Valerie Galante|cv=no|reason=reason|details=1) you must read wp:rs about reliable sources. You cannot use Wikipedia, blogs, or the subject's own writings as sources 2) self-publishing does not confer notability 3) the article must be scrupulously factual and neutral; statements like "noted for being fiercely independent, autonomous and unconventional." are simply not allowed. 4) All statements of fact must come from third-party published sources that meet the criteria at [[wp:rs}}|comment=|sig=yes}}

Conflict of Interest

Hello, Galantev. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about on Wikipedia, 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. In particular, please:

• avoid editing or creating articles related to you and your circle, your organization, its competitors, projects or products;
• instead propose changes on the talk pages of affected articles (see the {{request edit}} template);
• when discussing affected articles, disclose your COI (see WP:DISCLOSE);
• avoid linking to the Wikipedia article or website of your organization in other articles (see WP:SPAM);
• exercise great caution so that you do not violate 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).

Please familiarize yourself with relevant policies and guidelines, especially those pertaining to neutral point of view, sourcing and autobiographies. Thank you.

• Do note that autobiographies are strongly discouraged on Wikipedia. This is not a site for creating a page for yourself. You can do that on Facebook, etc. LaMona (talk) 07:47, 25 February 2016 (UTC)
