User talk:Legendboatsmario

Welcome!

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

I noticed that one of the first articles you edited 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.

Hi! Thanks for your reply. I'd definitely love your help reviewing the draft I submitted for Legend Boats.

I've endeavoured to be completely transparent about my conflict of interest, as well as to write the contribution in as neutral of a way as possible. I also only mentioned things that are public knowledge from news articles, or were simple company facts that could be verified from the Legend website. I didn't include any language to suggest we sell a superior product or anything of the sort, just the facts that Legend is a boating company, and the factual history of the company.

I take Wikipedia's neutrality VERY seriously, and I hope this contribution reflects a neutral reporting of the facts. Legendboatsmario (talk) 18:35, 20 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Please note that your conflict of interest disclosure is insufficient. Because you are employed by this company, you are considered to be a paid editor. This requires a higher standard of disclosure, typically by using the {{paid}} template on your userpage. Please review the template usage and the mandatory paid editing disclosure policy to make sure you are familiar and in compliance with its requirements. --Drm310 🍁 (talk) 19:10, 20 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you! I've updated my userpage to use the {{paid}} template. My apologies for utilizing the wrong form of disclosure. Legendboatsmario (talk) 19:16, 20 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Your submission at Articles for creation: Legend Boats (August 21)

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

This draft's references do not show that the subject qualifies for a Wikipedia article. In summary, the draft needs multiple published sources that are:

in-depth (not just brief mentions about the subject or routine announcements)
reliable
secondary
strictly independent of the subject

Make sure you add references that meet all four of these criteria before resubmitting. 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:

For notability per WP:GNG / WP:ORGCRIT, we need to see significant coverage in multiple independent and reliable secondary sources. This excludes sponsored content, anything based on the company's publicity materials, and routine business reporting.

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:Legend Boats 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.
