I corrected factual errors on my mother's biography!? How dare you reverse them? On what grounds!? Maiway2021 (talk) 16:16, 23 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

All content on Wikipedia needs a reliable published source and also needs to be written in a dry neutral tone. Theroadislong (talk) 16:29, 23 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I agree that the initial message you received was a bit harsh - we try not to be too hard on newcomers who are unaware of Wikipedia's many policies and content guidelines.

That said, please review our conflict of interest guidelines and policy on no original research. All content on Wikipedia must be cited to previously published material from reliable sources. Thank you. --Drm310 🍁 (talk) 17:15, 23 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Welcome!

Hello, Maiway2021, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions.

I noticed that one of the first articles you edited was Elzbieta Ettinger, 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.)

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:

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!
