Your submission at Articles for creation: Askeaton Contemporary Arts (February 22)

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed! Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reason left by S0091 was:

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:

Much of the content is sourced to them or those affiliated with them (see primary). They may be notable but this needs to be rewritten to only summarize what secondary reliable sources have written about them. Not interviews with them or articles that is mostly what they say or those affiliated with say about them.

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:Askeaton Contemporary Arts 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 Edassistant.askeaton. The nature of your edits, such as the one you made to Draft:Askeaton Contemporary Arts, 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:Edassistant.askeaton. The template {{Paid}} can be used for this purpose – e.g. in the form: {{paid|user=Edassistant.askeaton|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.

Please read Wikipedia's definition of "paid" which includes employees, even if not specifically compensated to edit Wikipedia and unpaid interns. If not paid, it is clear you have at least a Conflict of interest (read that too) that needs to be declared. Meeting either does not preclude you from submitting a draft but must be appropriately declared. S0091 (talk) 21:28, 22 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Hi S0091, thank you very much for your detailed and constructive feedback - I thought I had properly disclosed my association with the subject 'Askeaton Contemporary Arts', but I'm afraid I am new to this and tried to tick both boxes for 'close to the subject' and 'paid to edit'. Is it possible for me to submit a very simplified / introductory version of the page as an article for creation citing only newspaper and book sources so that some of the work can be put to use or edited by others? Edassistant.askeaton (talk) 21:11, 14 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Edassistant.askeaton, before doing anything you need make the appropriate declaration. In your response it is still not clear what your relationship to Askeaton Contemporarym is but for the purposes of this discussion/advice I am going to assume you meet definition outlined in WP:PAID so I suggest you read that thoroughly. I will also leave you another note here that may be helpful.

To your specific question, yes, you can still work on/submit a draft after you have made the appropriate disclosure but it needs to meet both Wikipedia's neutral point of view policy| in addition to the notability guidelines. My best advice is to only summarize what reliable sources independently state, not what the organisation or those affiliated with the organisation state/published, and not routine coverage such as coverage about exhibits (unless they contain independent critical analysis about Askeaton Contemporary) and only use the best ten to do that. S0091 (talk) 21:40, 14 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Hi S0091, thank you very much for the detailed response, that is very helpful. I've added the declaration to my user page and submitted an overhauled version of the article - if it still isn't reading neautral enough, I am happy to request an editor moving forward. Thanks again. Edassistant.askeaton (talk) 13:54, 15 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Hi S0091, I've added a declaration to my profile and redrafted a very simple version of the Askeaton Contemporary Arts article - thank you very much for your sound advice. Edassistant.askeaton (talk) 13:08, 18 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
