Managing a conflict of interest[edit]

Hello, Ottilelilly. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about on the page Draft:Lexy McDonald, 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 {{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 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. MarcGarver (talk) 09:05, 31 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Hi MarcGarver,

I do not know Lexy personally. I just know about her. Ottilelilly (talk) 11:06, 31 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

The article you are drafting is very close to an advert and promotional in tone. You also appear to have copied copyright photographs and uploaded them (e.g., from her LinkedIn profile). So, you are either allowed to do this - which means you have a conflict - or you have breached her copyright, which is a very serious issue. Which is it?

Hi MarcGarver. Neither.

Within McDonald's website (www.lexymcdonald.com) under "terms" in the footer of her website, it states "All content within this website is owned by us and you may view, print out, and utilize the website for royalty-free use of, printable resources, how-to guides and all images within the site.".

Which is where I was able to get these photos from. Ottilelilly (talk) 02:00, 2 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Your submission at Articles for creation: Lexy McDonald (April 5)[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 MurielMary was:

This submission's references do not show that the subject qualifies for a Wikipedia article—that is, they do not show significant coverage (not just passing mentions) about the subject in published, reliable, secondary sources that are independent of the subject (see the guidelines on the notability of people). Before any resubmission, additional references meeting these criteria should be added (see technical help and learn about mistakes to avoid when addressing this issue). If no additional references exist, the subject is not suitable for Wikipedia.
