User talk:Aubsabs222

April 2020

Hello Aubsabs222. The nature of your edits, such as the one you made to Transflective liquid-crystal display, gives the impression you have an undisclosed financial stake in promoting a topic, but you have not complied with Wikipedia's mandatory paid editing disclosure requirements. Paid advocacy is a category of conflict of interest (COI) editing that involves being compensated by a person, group, company or organization to use Wikipedia to promote their interests. Undisclosed paid advocacy is prohibited by our policies on neutral point of view and what Wikipedia is not, and is an especially egregious type of COI; the Wikimedia Foundation regards it as a "black hat" practice akin to black-hat SEO.

Paid advocates are very strongly discouraged from direct article editing, and should instead propose changes on the talk page of the article in question if an article exists, and if it does not, from attempting to write an article at all. At best, any proposed article creation should be submitted through the articles for creation process, rather than directly.

Regardless, if you are receiving or expect to receive compensation for your edits, broadly construed, you are required by the Wikimedia Terms of Use to disclose your employer, client and affiliation. You can post such a mandatory disclosure to your user page at User:Aubsabs222. The template {{Paid}} can be used for this purpose – e.g. in the form: {{paid|user=Aubsabs222|employer=InsertName|client=InsertName}}. If I am mistaken – you are not being directly or indirectly compensated for your edits – please state that in response to this message. Otherwise, please provide the required disclosure. In either case, do not edit further until you answer this message. MrOllie (talk) 22:35, 1 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Hello Mr. Ollie, Thank you for your reply. I just discovered this comment after I made other edits to a page on Liquid Crystal Displays. I am the Product Marketing Manager for New Vision Display (You can see me listed as the contact on our Privacy Page here: ^[1]). Also, here is my LinkedIn profile: https://www.linkedin.com/in/aubreeabernethy/. The purpose of my edits was to update old information about the ZBD LCD technology, which the company I work for (New Vision Display) recently purchased from DisplayData.^[2] The content was created by my colleague Guy Bryan-Brown who is registered on the ZBD LCD patent^[3] and who also co-wrote this journal article on ZBD LCD technology^[4]. I am relatively inexperienced with making Wikipedia edits, so if there is a better or more appropriate way to do it I would appreciate your instruction. Please let me know if you have any questions. I hope I am using the talk page correctly. My apologies if not! Thank you, Aubree AbernethyAubsabs222 (talk) 01:23, 2 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

You shouldn't be making these edits yourself. You'll need to post the mandatory disclosures as detailed at Wikipedia:Paid-contribution disclosure. Please also see Wikipedia:Plain and simple conflict of interest guide - you should propose changes on article talk pages from now on, rather than making edits about your employer directly. - MrOllie (talk) 01:46, 2 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for the clarification. I have just posted a request for the changes in the talk for that page. I also updated my user account to show that I am a paid contributor for New Vision Display. Hopefully, I have done what is needed. If you have any questions or issues please don't hesitate to reach out. Thank you, Aubsabs222 (talk) 03:10, 2 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Your submission at Articles for creation: ZBD Liquid Crystal Display (May 19)

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed! Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reasons left by Sulfurboy were:

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. 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.

This submission appears to read more like an advertisement than an entry in an encyclopedia. Encyclopedia articles need to be written from a neutral point of view, and should refer to a range of independent, reliable, published sources, not just to materials produced by the creator of the subject being discussed. This is important so that the article can meet Wikipedia's verifiability policy and the notability of the subject can be established. If you still feel that this subject is worthy of inclusion in Wikipedia, please rewrite your submission to comply with these policies.

The comment the reviewer left was:

Although subtle, this is just a WP:COATRACK for a product by New Vision Display. If you want to write an article about the company, write one about the company. If you want to write one about the technology, then it's notability will have to be demonstrated much clearer and the WP:TONE and WP:NPOV issues will have to be greatly cleaned up.

Please check the submission for any additional comments left by the reviewer. You are encouraged to edit the submission to address the issues raised and resubmit when they have been resolved.

If you would like to continue working on the submission, go to Draft:ZBD Liquid Crystal Display and click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window.
If you now believe the draft cannot meet Wikipedia's standards or do not wish to progress it further, you may request deletion. Please go to Draft:ZBD Liquid Crystal Display, click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window, add "{{Db-g7}}" at the top of the draft text and click the blue "publish changes" button to save this edit.
If you do not make any further changes to your draft, in 6 months, it will be considered abandoned and may be deleted.
If you need any assistance, you can ask for help at the Articles for creation help desk, on the reviewer's talk page or use Wikipedia's real-time chat help from experienced editors.
