User talk:Dianatmoorephd

Welcome!

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

I noticed that one of the first articles you edited was Draft:UrgentVet, which 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:

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!

Speedy deletion nomination of Draft:UrgentVet

If this is the first article that you have 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.

A tag has been placed on Draft:UrgentVet, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page seems to be unambiguous advertising which only promotes a company, group, product, service, person, or point of view and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become encyclopedic. Please read the guidelines on spam and Wikipedia:FAQ/Organizations for more information.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator.

As usual, the ten edits that "new" editors make to get autoconfirmed before they write up their promotional article weren't very good, and I reverted them. Drmies (talk) 22:19, 6 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, I'm making a statement that I am being paid by UrgentVet to help them with their Wikipedia page. I have no other affiliation, except as a freelance writer. I saw that Banfield, VCA (where my own kitty goes), and BluePearl also have existing pages, which I am using as a template.Dianatmoorephd (talk) 22:40, 6 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Rewrite of UrgentVet

As per the conversation with @Deepfriedokra, I am rewriting this article as very bare bones and strictly encyclopedic. Thank you! Dianatmoorephd (talk) 03:30, 16 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

File copyright problem with File:UrgentVet Logo.png

Thank you for uploading File:UrgentVet Logo.png. However, it is currently missing information on its copyright and licensing status. Wikipedia takes copyright very seriously. It may be deleted soon, unless we can verify that it has an acceptable license status and a verifiable source. Please add this information by editing the image description page. You may refer to the image use policy to learn what files you can or cannot upload on Wikipedia. The page on copyright tags may help you to find the correct tag to use for your file. If the file is already gone, you can still make a request for undeletion and ask for a chance to fix the problem.

Please also check any other files you may have uploaded to make sure they are correctly tagged. Here is a list of your uploads.

If you have any questions, please feel free to ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thanks again for your cooperation. Vladlen Manilov ✉ / 05:06, 16 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I can't seem to update the file. And I also can't seem to delete it to start over. I accidently pressed enter before adding the copyright information, and now I can't correct it. I'll keep trying.... Dianatmoorephd (talk) 15:47, 16 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Hi @Vladlen Manilov! Thank you for this information. I uploaded way too soon. Can you please delete the image? Thank you! Dianatmoorephd (talk) 17:34, 16 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Your submission at Articles for creation: UrgentVet (August 17)

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed! Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reason left by SamHolt6 was:

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 (see the guidelines on the notability of organizations and companies). 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.

The comment the reviewer left was:

Declining; draft needs to cite the necessary in-depth, independent coverage needed to establish the topic as meeting WP:NCORP. Currently the article cites WP:MILL press releases and business announcements, and lacks a claim to significance.

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 after they have been resolved.

If you would like to continue working on the submission, go to Draft:UrgentVet and click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window.
If you do not edit your draft in the next 6 months, it will be considered abandoned and may be deleted.
If you need any assistance, or have experienced any untoward behavior associated with this submission, 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.

Hello, Dianatmoorephd! Having an article draft declined at Articles for Creation can be disappointing.

See you there! SamHolt6 (talk) 03:08, 17 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

January 2023

Hello Dianatmoorephd. The nature of your edits 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 serious type of COI; the Wikimedia Foundation regards it as a "black hat" practice akin to black-hat search-engine optimization.

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. If the article does not exist, paid advocates are extremely strongly discouraged 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:Dianatmoorephd. The template {{Paid}} can be used for this purpose – e.g. in the form: {{paid|user=Dianatmoorephd|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. Bilby (talk) 01:27, 26 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Concern regarding Draft:UrgentVet

Hello, Dianatmoorephd. This is a bot-delivered message letting you know that Draft:UrgentVet, a page you created, has not been edited in at least 5 months. Drafts that have not been edited for six months may be deleted, so if you wish to retain the page, please edit it again or request that it be moved to your userspace.

If the page has already been deleted, you can request it be undeleted so you can continue working on it.

Thank you for your submission to Wikipedia. FireflyBot (talk) 13:01, 12 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Your draft article, Draft:UrgentVet

Hello, Dianatmoorephd. It has been over six months since you last edited the Articles for Creation submission or Draft page you started, "UrgentVet".

In accordance with our policy that Wikipedia is not for the indefinite hosting of material deemed unsuitable for the encyclopedia mainspace, the draft has been deleted. When you plan on working on it further and you wish to retrieve it, you can request its undeletion. An administrator will, in most cases, restore the submission so you can continue to work on it.

Thanks for your submission to Wikipedia, and happy editing. Liz ^{Read! Talk!} 16:32, 12 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
