Your submission at Articles for creation: sandbox (August 24)

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

The proposed article does not have sufficient content to require an article of its own, but it could be merged into the existing article at Pony Express. Since anyone can edit Wikipedia, you are welcome to add that information yourself. Thank you.

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 User:GreenKids/sandbox 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 User:GreenKids/sandbox, 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, 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.

Possible Conflict of Interest

Hi, GreenKids, I reverted your recent edit to Pony Express where you added raw links to a Pony Express Game. Wikipedia is not for promotion of products, please see WP:SPAM. If and when the game is notable and has its own article, then would be a good time to add a link to the Pony Express page. As many of your edits concern Lynn Rogoff, who was involved with the product to which you linked, I'm concerned that you may have a conflict of interest with Lynn Rogoff. Wikipedia has guidelines about how to handle conflicts of interest, basically you need to declare it on your user page and then propose edits to these articles in the talk pages. As your account seems that it might also be a single purpose account, please review WP:SPA. For further reference, below is the standard COI template.

Hello, GreenKids. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about on the page Lynn Rogoff, you may have a conflict of interest (COI). Editors with a conflict of interest may be unduly influenced by their connection to the topic. See the conflict of interest guideline and FAQ for organizations for more information. We ask that you:

avoid editing or creating articles about yourself, your family, friends, colleagues, company, organization or competitors;
propose changes on the talk pages of affected articles (you can use the {{request edit}} template);
disclose your conflict of interest when discussing affected articles (see Wikipedia:Conflict of interest#How to disclose a COI);
avoid linking to your organization's website in other articles (see Wikipedia:Spam#External link spamming);
do your best to comply with Wikipedia's content policies.

In addition, you are required by the Wikimedia Foundation's terms of use to disclose your employer, client, and affiliation with respect to any contribution which forms all or part of work for which you receive, or expect to receive, compensation. See Wikipedia:Paid-contribution disclosure.

Also, editing for the purpose of advertising, publicising, or promoting anyone or anything is not permitted. Thank you. Cxbrx (talk) 14:02, 5 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Hi GreenKids, please stop editing Lynn Rogoff and reply to my concerns that you may have a WP:COI here. If you do not reply, I will follow up on the Conflict of Interest Noticeboard. Please also see Wikipedia:COICOIN. Also, please stop removing the COI tag from Lynn Rogoff. If you do have a conflict of interest and propose suggested edits on the Talk:Lynn Rogoff page, I'd be happy to consider your suggestions. Cxbrx (talk) 12:53, 7 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Dear Cxbrx,

Thank you for your generous and detailed input. With your input, we are gladly working with you on the talk page. Having followed Rogoff’s career for decades, we know a great deal about her work. We have followed your guidelines and notes adding the citation you requested and removing the titles and references that were not sufficiently cited.

What is the pathway to removing the conflict of interest? We want to make sure that we meet your guidelines and notes. Below are our attempts to address your citation concerns. Please let us know if these references and citations meet your criteria. We look forward to your kind consideration and assistance.GreenKids (talk) 15:35, 17 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Hi GreenKids, thank you for replying to my message here. You continued to edit Lynn Rogoff after I asked that you consider stopping and before you replied to my concerns. I did state that if this happened, I would follow up on Conflict of Interest Noticeboard. However, I'll assume good faith here and move on - I'd rather work with you to address the issues. It really does seem that you have a conflict of interest here and it would be helpful if you would declare that you have a COI by editing User:GreenKids and adding a tag. See conflict of interest guideline. I saw that you updated Talk:Lynn Rogoff with some proposed edits, over the next few days I'll consider your proposed changes and update the page accordingly. To remove the COI tag on Lynn Rogoff, I'll be following the guidelines at WP:COIRESPONSE. In particular, I'm worried about WP:WEIGHT and I'm also concerned that the subject of this article might not be notable enough, see WP:CREATIVE and WP:PROF. Let me take a look at the proposed changes, make some updates and the we can see about removing the tag from that article. Note that every edit you have made Lynn Rogoff needs to be reviewed, so continuing to edit that article does not speed things up. Again, many thanks for replying here, I'm fairly certain we can move forward to an article that meets the WP guidelines concerning COI. Cxbrx (talk) 18:47, 17 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

As Prof. Rogoff was my professor, her work was studied at the University. . During college I was introduced to Professor Rogoff’s body of work. Since that time I have been following her work. As I am not an expert in Wikipedia coding, my assistant has been communicating with me on how to properly edit the source code. Thus there are attempts by two computers on the article. This is not malicious or abusive but rather an attempt to correctly adhere to your protocols on code, style, citations, and references.GreenKids (talk) 21:20, 21 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Sockpuppet investigation

An editor has opened an investigation into sockpuppetry by you. Sockpuppetry is the use of more than one Wikipedia account in a manner that contravenes community policy. The investigation is being held at Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Amerikids, where the editor who opened the investigation has presented their evidence. Please make sure you make yourself familiar with the guide to responding to investigations, and then feel free to offer your own evidence or to submit comments that you wish to be considered by the Wikipedia administrator who decides the result of the investigation. If you have been using multiple accounts (in a manner contrary to Wikipedia policy), please go to the investigation page and verify that now. Leniency is usually shown to those who promise not to do so again, or who did so unwittingly, but the abuse of multiple accounts is taken very seriously by the Wikipedia community.

Hi GreenKids, you might want to post the above over at Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Amerikids. See also Wikipedia:Sockpuppet_investigations/SPI/Guidance#Defending_yourself_against_claims. If sockpuppetry or meat puppetry was committed here, I don't see it as being that egregious in this case. Please comment in the investigation and it can be discussed there. I am more concerned about WP:COI. As you were a student of the subject of the article, it seems that you should declare that you have a WP:COI, avoid editing the article directly and continue to make suggestions via the Talk:Lynn Rogoff page. Cxbrx (talk) 23:41, 21 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

_______________ Thank you for your kind consideration to not seeing this work as egregious. I did follow your earlier suggestions and post my updated edits and abbreviated article earlier this week for your consideration via the Talk:Lynn Rogoff page. Please let me know if you were able to view this edited article in Talk:Lynn Rogoff GreenKids (talk) 20:04, 24 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
