User talk:Dcerasani

Welcome!

Hello, Dcerasani, and welcome to Wikipedia! I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Unfortunately, one or more of the pages you created, such as Draft:Dario Gil, may not conform to some of Wikipedia's content policies and may not be retained. In short, the topic of an article must be notable and have already been the subject of publication by reliable and independent sources.

Please review Your first article for an overview of the article creation process. The Article Wizard is available to help you create an article, where it will be reviewed and considered for publication. For information on how to request a new article that can be created by someone else, see Requested articles. If you are stuck, come to the Teahouse, where experienced Wikipedians can help you through the processes.

Speedy deletion of Draft:Dario Gil

If this was the first article that you created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.
You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

The page Draft:Dario Gil has been speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This was done under section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page appeared to be an unambiguous copyright infringement. This page appeared to be a direct copy from https://newsroom.ibm.com/dario-gil. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images taken from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition has been be deleted. You may use external websites or other printed material as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. This part is crucial: say it in your own words. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.

If the external website or image belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text or image — which means allowing other people to use it for any reason — then you must verify that externally by one of the processes explained at Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials. The same holds if you are not the owner but have their permission. If you are not the owner and do not have permission, see Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission for how you may obtain it. You might want to look at Wikipedia's copyright policy for more details, or ask a question here.

Please do not recreate the material without addressing these concerns, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If you think this page should not have been deleted for this reason, you may contact the deleting administrator, or if you have already done so, you may open a discussion at Wikipedia:Deletion review. — Diannaa (talk) 21:30, 24 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hi @Diannaa I've revised the draft of Dario's in my own words and provided backlinks and citations where necessary. Can you please review and approve? Appreciate your assistance as this is my first time trying to publish a page and want to ensure it is done correctly for the IBM executive. Thank you!

The new draft looks okay from a copyright point of view. I don't have time to review drafts, sorry. If you think it's ready, please submit the draft for review using the link provided on the template at the top of the draft. — Diannaa (talk) 14:05, 11 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Sure thing! thank you very much, Diana. Dcerasani (talk) 14:06, 11 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

When you post a talk page message, please create a new heading, don't just add to another message.

You have an obvious conflict of interest, please don't write about yourself, your friends or relatives and read the guidance below:

When you write about a person, you must provide independent verifiable sources to enable us to verify the facts and show that they meet the notability guidelines. Sources that are not acceptable include those linked to the person or an associated organisation, press releases, YouTube, IMDB, social media and other sites that can be self-edited, blogs, websites of unknown or non-reliable provenance, and sites that are just reporting what the person claims or interviewing them. Note that references should be in-line so we can tell what fact each is supporting, and should not be bare urls.

Your refs, some of which were urls, included interviews with him, press releases, postings from his own company websites, and at least one ref which seemed to be about IBM rather than him. Some of your text is unreferenced. We need independent third-party sources.

You must write in a non-promotional tone. Articles must be neutral and encyclopaedic, with verifiable facts, not opinions or reviews.

Such as leading IBM's innovation strategies in the rapidly evolving AI landscape, Gil also leads IBM's collaboration with the AI Alliance (supposed source doesn't even mention him). make AI safer and more innovative... Gil is known internationally for his leadership in quantum computing... (source is an IBM press release that doesn't say that anyway) one of the world's most robust and advanced utility-scale quantum ecosystems, contributing to the future of computing in many industries and so on, your opinions, either unreferenced or with improper refs that even then don't verify what you claim.

There shouldn't be any url links in the article, only in the "References" or "External links" sections.

You had many, either turn them into refs if they are proper sources verifying real facts, or take them out.

You must not copy text from elsewhere. Copyrighted text is not allowed in Wikipedia, as outlined in this policy. That applies even to pages created by you or your organisation, unless they state clearly and explicitly that the text is public domain. We require that text posted here can be used, modified and distributed for any purpose, including commercial; text is considered to be copyright unless explicitly stated otherwise. There are ways to donate copyrighted text to Wikipedia, as described here; please note that simply asserting on the talk page that you are the owner of the copyright, or you have permission to use the text, isn't sufficient.

I didn't check, but I assume this issue, at least, has been resolved.

Before attempting to write an article again, please make sure that the topic meets the notability criteria linked above, and check that you can find independent third party sources. Also read Your first article. If you are writing about yourself, or someone you know as a friend, colleague, client, employer or relative, you have a conflict of interest, and you must disclose the nature of that COI.

In particular, if you work directly or indirectly for an organisation, or otherwise are acting on its behalf, you are very strongly discouraged from attempting to write an article at all. If you are paid directly or indirectly by the organisation or person you are writing about, 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 Dcerasani. The template {{Paid}} can be used for this purpose – e.g. in the form: {{paid|user=Dcerasani|employer=InsertName|client=InsertName}}. If you are being compensated, please provide the required disclosure. Note that editing with a COI is discouraged, but permitted as long as it is declared. Concealing a COI can lead to a block. Please do not edit further until you respond to this message.
