[edit]

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

I notice that one of the first articles you edited 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 any other editor to proofread it. To start creating a draft article, just click your user name at the top of the screen when you are logged in, and edit that page as you would any other. 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.

The one firm 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. It is also worth noting that Wikipedia generally does not allow editors to have usernames which specifically link them to one company or corporation. If your username does have such a name, it would be advisable for you to request a change of username.

If you are stuck, and looking for help, please come to the New contributors' help page, where experienced Wikipedians can answer any queries you have! You can also just type {{helpme}} on your user page, and someone will show up shortly to answer your questions. Here are a few other good links for newcomers:

I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Please sign your name on talk pages using four tildes (~~~~); this will automatically produce your name and the date.

Hey, thank you for your welcome email, I've done what you suggested and redrafted it a lot. Could you possibly take a look and let me know what you think?

Thankss!! Philly_P 10:12, 10 February 2012 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Philippa Pointon (talkcontribs)

Hi. I am probably not the best person to review articles, there are many others more skilled than I. What I have done is moved the article from your user page, to a subpage in your user space User:PointyP/YuuWaa and added the {{AFC submission}} template. The template alerts those good at reviewing to come and give comment on your article. — billinghurst sDrewth 10:29, 10 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Your article has been moved to AfC space

[edit]

Hi! I would like to inform you that the Articles for Creation submission which was previously located here: User:Philippa Pointon/YuuWaa has been moved to Wikipedia talk:Articles for creation/YuuWaa, this move was made automatically and doesn't affect your article, if you have any questions please ask on my talk page! Have a nice day. ArticlesForCreationBot (talk) 10:57, 10 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I uploaded an image that I needed and didn't use the right copyright rules as i'm new and didn't understand and so now it has been deleted and I can't reupload it but it is my image (brand logo) and I have copyright, can you help me get it back!?

I have shutdown the bot to prevent futher problems. Try making it bigger and upload again. Hope it helps! NCISfan2 (talk) 17:24, 17 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]
