September 2021

Hello Katieschofield2000. 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:Katieschofield2000. The template {{Paid}} can be used for this purpose – e.g. in the form: {{paid|user=Katieschofield2000|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. 331dot (talk) 16:11, 13 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Hi! Thanks for letting me know, I can confirm I won’t be getting paid for my contributions to this page !! Katieschofield2000 (talk) 16:22, 13 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

There is no sort of compensation involved either just to confirm Katieschofield2000 (talk) 16:23, 13 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

As stated in the paid editing policy, interns count as paid editors even if you get no money, this is because you are compensated with the experience of the work. 331dot (talk) 16:25, 13 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

okay thank you Katieschofield2000 (talk) 16:26, 13 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I just used the template you kindly sent me to disclose this - what happens next? Katieschofield2000 (talk) 16:30, 13 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

That is correct, thank you. 331dot (talk) 18:06, 13 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Your submission at Articles for creation: Baturu Festival (September 26)

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed! Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reasons left by Gorden 2211 were:

This submission is not adequately supported by reliable sources. Reliable sources are required so that information can be verified. If you need help with referencing, please see Referencing for beginners and Citing sources.

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:

The article is not properly sourced, much of it is unreliable. It also reads more like an advertisement of the festival, which is unacceptable

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 Draft:Baturu Festival 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 Draft:Baturu Festival, 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.
