Conflict of interest editing

Hello, Maggicmoggy. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about on Wikipedia, 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, clients, or competitors;
propose changes on the talk pages of affected articles (you can use the {{edit COI}} 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. Melcous (talk) 13:08, 26 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Melcous

It is very creditable that Wikipedia has diligent editors checking for COI and other contributions that contravene regulations and ensure that the material on Wikipedia is written from a neutral standpoint. Thank you for writing to me to voice your concerns regarding my page as a new contributor.

Please can I assure you that there is absolutely no conflict of interest regarding this article. I am an editor of 20 years' professional experience, specialising in the health sector. I took an interest in this artist who has an enormous underground following. Happily I can confirm that there is no conflict of interest and he has not paid me to write the article. I took considerable time on it in order to give a person the credit I felt they deserved, but was extremely careful to write without any bias. No one writes about a subject in which they have no interest, however with no payment or personal connection, this doesn't amount to a conflict of interest and I know that you'll recognise this.

As a new contributor, I was extremely diligent in reading up on Wiki rules and regulations and spent much time and effort ensuring that my article would adhere to guidelines, with all factual information suitably referenced.

Thank you for informing me of your concerns and I would kindly ask you to reinstate the page.

Best wishes

Your submission at Articles for creation: Boo Sutcliffe (November 29)

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed. Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reasons left by BuySomeApples 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'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 music-related topics). 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:

Too much unsourced material and nothing that shows this meets WP:NMUSICIAN.

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:Boo Sutcliffe 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.
