Welcome!

[edit]

Hello and welcome to Wikipedia. Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. The following links will help you begin editing on Wikipedia:

Please bear these points in mind while editing Wikipedia:

The Wikipedia tutorial is a good place to start learning about Wikipedia. If you have any questions, see the help pages, add a question to the village pump or ask me on my talk page. By the way, you can sign your name on Talk and discussion pages using four tildes, like this: ~~~~ (the software will replace them with your signature and the date). Again, welcome!

Conflict of interest editing

[edit]

Information icon Hello, Nanorefs. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about in the page Chad Mirkin, 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 or competitors;
  • propose changes on the talk pages of affected articles (you can use the {{request edit}} 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 WP:Spam);
  • 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. Melcous (talk) 17:02, 16 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I work at the same university as Chad Mirkin, though I had been planning to contribute to nano topics more broadly. I'll refrain from editing his or any other pages, but I would like to add references for the awards that you deleted. I did not add those awards. Nanorefs (talk) 16:20, 22 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you for clarifying, your approach is appreciated. You can still help improve articles where you have a conflict of interest, the easiest way to do so is by using the Template:Request edit on the article's talk page and suggesting content be changed or added (and proved references), then a non-conflicted editor can review and edit the article itself. I'm sure your contribution to the broader topic area will be helpful - feel free to ask if you have any questions along the way. Cheers, Melcous (talk) 23:22, 22 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Hello. I would appreciate your guidance. As noted above on my talk page, I do work at the university that presents this award. However, I don't understand the tags that say the article was based on routine coverage or sensationalism, and would appreciate help in understanding how to improve that. I read dozens of articles at Category:Science_and_technology_awards and tried to follow the form I found there. Thank you. Nanorefs (talk) 15:02, 1 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
