Welcome!
[edit]Hello, MaherSerawan, and welcome to Wikipedia. We appreciate encyclopedic contributions, but some of your recent contributions, such as your edit to the page The Legend of Zelda (video game), seem to be advertising or for promotional purposes.

[edit]Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Wikipedia, as you did at Economic history of Ethiopia. Your edits appear to constitute vandalism and have been reverted. If you would like to experiment, please use your sandbox. Repeated vandalism may result in the loss of editing privileges. Thank you. Storchy (talk) 16:41, 19 July 2022 (UTC)
Beytie.com moved to draftspace
[edit]An article you recently created, Beytie.com, is not suitable as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. (?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of "Draft:
" before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page. – bradv🍁 21:07, 19 July 2022 (UTC)

Hello, MaherSerawan!
Having an article draft declined at Articles for Creation can be disappointing. If you are wondering why your article submission was declined, please post a question at the Articles for creation help desk. If you have any other questions about your editing experience, we'd love to help you at the Teahouse, a friendly space on Wikipedia where experienced editors lend a hand to help new editors like yourself!

- Dear Theroadislong,
- I've been trying to make an article similar to Enterprise GP Holdings, and again, I do not qualify as a paid editor as per your guidelines and I am not paid for this or compensated in any way.
- I've removed and edited most of the original content that would be seen as advertising, and tried to make it neutral, so kindly help me by pointing out what is read like an advertisement so I would edit it out.
- Best regards,

Paid editing
[edit]Hello MaherSerawan. 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 serious type of COI; the Wikimedia Foundation regards it as a "black hat" practice akin to black-hat search-engine optimization.
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. If the article does not exist, paid advocates are extremely strongly discouraged 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:MaherSerawan. The template {{Paid}} can be used for this purpose – e.g. in the form: {{paid|user=MaherSerawan|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. Theroadislong (talk) 14:04, 20 July 2022 (UTC)
- Dear Theroadislong,
- I have checked the Paid editing guidelines and examples, I do not qualify as a paid editor as per your guidelines
- Kindly note that my intent is to match your policies, and check the draft again, if what is being implied is that I must remove the references to the award pages, kindly let me know
- best regards

Concern regarding Draft:Beytie.com
[edit]Hello, MaherSerawan. This is a bot-delivered message letting you know that Draft:Beytie.com, a page you created, has not been edited in at least 5 months. Drafts that have not been edited for six months may be deleted, so if you wish to retain the page, please edit it again or request that it be moved to your userspace.
If the page has already been deleted, you can request it be undeleted so you can continue working on it.
Thank you for your submission to Wikipedia. FireflyBot (talk) 09:01, 25 December 2022 (UTC)
If this was the first article that you created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.
You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.
The page Draft:Beytie.com has been speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This was done under section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page seemed to be unambiguous advertising which only promoted a company, group, product, service, person, or point of view and would need to have been fundamentally rewritten in order to become encyclopedic. Please read the guidelines on spam and Wikipedia:FAQ/Organizations for more information.
Please do not recreate the material without addressing these concerns, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If you think this page should not have been deleted for this reason, or you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator.
