Declare any connection

Hello ChiaraCantilis. The nature of your edits gives the impression you have an undisclosed financial stake in promoting a topic, such as the edit you made to Draft:Oxurion, 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:ChiaraCantilis. The template {{Paid}} can be used for this purpose – e.g. in the form: {{paid|user=ChiaraCantilis|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. --Worldbruce (talk) 15:21, 23 April 2019 (UTC)

@Wordlbruce: Thank you so much for your helpful reply, this really clarifies things for me as opposed to the 'This is an advertisement!' comment. I've posted the disclosure on my user page. Despite being paid to write, I never meant to use Wikipedia as a promotional medium. I'm well aware that there's plenty of other places on the web to do that. I'm looking forward to see if this article might pass now that I'm not accidentally Black Hatting anymore.  ;- )If not, I'll give it a go through the articles for creation page. Thanks again! --ChiaraCantilis (talk) 13:13, 24 April 2019 (GMT+2)

Credit source of translation

It appears that you translated text from nl:Oxurion into Draft:Oxurion. While you are welcome to re-use Wikipedia's content, here or elsewhere, Wikipedia's licensing does require that you provide attribution to the original contributor(s). When copying within Wikipedia, this is supplied at minimum in an edit summary at the page into which you've copied content, disclosing the copying and linking to the copied page, e.g., Content in this edit is translated from the existing Dutch Wikipedia article at nl:Oxurion; see its history for attribution. It is good practice, especially if translation is extensive, to also place a properly formatted {{copied}} template on the talk pages of the source and destination. The attribution has been provided for this situation, but if you copy or translate material between pages again, please provide attribution for it. You can read more about the procedure and the reasons at Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia. Thank you. --Worldbruce (talk) 14:16, 25 April 2019 (UTC)

@Wordlbruce: Hi there, thanks for the tip. I'm actually the author of nl:Oxurion. It didn't occur to me to credit myself, seeing as I didn't copy anything from that page. I wrote both texts from scratch on my computer, if I would've physically copied something from Wikipedia I would've surely had the reflex to give credit where credit's due. Would you say it's still necessary to add credits even when I authored both texts? --ChiaraCantilis (talk) 17:03, 25 April 2019 (GMT+2)
