User talk:Steviejade2k19
Welcome!
[edit]Hello, Steviejade2k19, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions.
I noticed 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 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:
- Best practices for editors with close associations
- The five pillars of Wikipedia
- Contributing to Wikipedia
- Tutorial
- How to edit a page and How to develop articles
- How to create your first article (using the Article Wizard if you wish)
- Simplified Manual of Style
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! ScottishFinnishRadish (talk) 12:22, 22 May 2023 (UTC)
Please do not post a full CV
[edit]Along with being a copyright violation, what you posted included the private contact information of people who I'm sure don't want it on Wikipedia. Also a CV is a primary source that can't be used for anything but the most basic of information. ScottishFinnishRadish (talk) 20:30, 23 May 2023 (UTC)
- My apologies, I sent that before reading the guidelines. I am still trying to navigate the platform as a new editor.
- The text below was the source given to me to use to edit the page and the articles are the best sources I could find online. (removed by Drm310)

- You are already engaged in a discussion at Talk:Betta Edu, so that is where discussion over content changes should stay. Please don't post that here.
- Thank you for disclosing your paid editing on your userpage. --Drm310 🍁 (talk) 22:22, 23 May 2023 (UTC)
Some pointers
[edit]It appears from your contributions that you are being given a set text that should be included in Wikipedia, and then try to find reliable sources to justify these additions. This will not work. Wikipedia is built on neutral reporting and verifiability, and your proposals will have to comply with those policies to be considered for implementation. If your starting point is "[Person] is great and amazing and a genius", you probably won't get very far. Any such value judgement, whether positive or negative, needs to come from reliable sources and be attributed to them.
Since you don't seem to be closely familiar with many editing guidelines, I would suggest that you consult some of the great resources for new editors. It's completely okay and normal to be overwhelmed or confused, and getting stuff wrong is fine. However, it can and will be frustrating to see your proposals rejected, and that will happen if they don't follow the guidelines.
I would suggest you start with the links provided to you in the section entitled "Welcome!", as well as The Wikipedia Adventure. If you have any questions or concerns, feel free to contact me on my talk page or ask at any time at the WP:TEAHOUSE. Actualcpscm (talk) 21:16, 25 May 2023 (UTC)
