Managing a conflict of interest[edit]

Hello, LcassidyCin7. 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 conflict of interest 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, colleagues, company, organization, clients, or competitors;
propose changes on the talk pages of affected articles (you can use the {{edit COI}} template);
disclose your conflict of interest when discussing affected articles (see Wikipedia:Conflict of interest § How to disclose a COI);
avoid linking to your organization's website in other articles (see Wikipedia:Spam § External link spamming);
do your best to comply with Wikipedia's content policies.

In addition, you are required by the Wikimedia Foundation's terms of use to disclose your employer, client, and affiliation with respect to any contribution which forms all or part of work for which you receive, or expect to receive, compensation. See Wikipedia:Paid-contribution disclosure.

Also, editing for the purpose of advertising, publicising, or promoting anyone or anything is not permitted. Thank you. Acroterion (talk) 03:08, 13 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Acroterion - can you clarify if this means the article is being declined? Or is there another action I need to take? I did put at the top of the listing that I had a connection to the topic, we didn't include any biased information but instead listed factual information LcassidyCin7 (talk) 16:23, 13 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

No, it's just to ensure that you knbow about Wikipedia's paid editing and conflict of interest policies. Userpages are not for draft articles, still less for articles created by the organizations themselves. I can move it to draft space if you want, where you can formally submit it fo review. Acroterion (talk) 17:35, 13 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

That would be great! So sorry for my misunderstanding. Yes we'd like it to be drafted for an article review. Thank you!! LcassidyCin7 (talk) 17:44, 13 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Will do. Keep in mind that accounts aren't shared, and that your account should represent only your efforts. That's one reason why I posted the notice, you must follow best practices since you have a clear-cut COI. You should not be editing anything concerning your organization at all, except to make suggestions on talkpages backed by reliable independent sources. Acroterion (talk) 17:51, 13 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I appreciate that! I'll be sure to keep away from any conflicting articles.

How will I know if this article os approved to go public? LcassidyCin7 (talk) 18:02, 13 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Actually, I won't. There is already a draft at Draft:Cin7. Please work on that, plainly declaring your affiliation in edit summaries and on the talkpage as you do so. Please address the reviewer's concerns, bearing in mind Wikipedia policies on sourcing, notability and prormotional content. Acroterion (talk) 18:01, 13 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Is there a way to delete the previous page and use mine instead? I did all the appropriate sourcing and updated it the way I think should work.. LcassidyCin7 (talk) 18:05, 13 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

You can just overwrite it. Keep in mind that Wikipedia isn't a business directory,and acceptance isn't guaranteed. Please read WP:CORP for discussion of notability and sourcing that might establish notability. Acroterion (talk) 18:07, 13 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Your submission at Articles for creation: Cin7 (December 13)[edit]

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

This draft's references do not show that the subject qualifies for a Wikipedia article. In summary, the draft needs multiple published sources that are:

in-depth (not just brief mentions about the subject or routine announcements)
reliable
secondary
strictly independent of the subject

Make sure you add references that meet all four of these criteria before resubmitting. Learn about mistakes to avoid when addressing this issue. If no additional references exist, the subject is not suitable for Wikipedia.

The comment the reviewer left was:

Your submission at Articles for creation: Cin7 (December 30)[edit]

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

This submission appears to read more like an advertisement than an entry in an encyclopedia. Encyclopedia articles need to be written from a neutral point of view, and should refer to a range of independent, reliable, published sources, not just to materials produced by the creator of the subject being discussed. This is important so that the article can meet Wikipedia's verifiability policy and the notability of the subject can be established. If you still feel that this subject is worthy of inclusion in Wikipedia, please rewrite your submission to comply with these policies.

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 after they have been resolved.
