Conflict of interest in Wikipedia

[edit]

Hi Natantiuk I work on conflict of interest issues here in Wikipedia, along with my regular editing. Your edits to date look like those of a PR person or freelancer. I'm giving you notice of our Conflict of Interest guideline and Terms of Use, and will have some comments and requests for you below.

Information icon Hello, Natantiuk. 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 COI may be unduly influenced by their connection to the topic, and it is important when editing Wikipedia articles that such connections be completely transparent. See the conflict of interest guideline and FAQ for organizations for more information. In particular, we ask that you please:

  • avoid editing or creating articles related to you and your family, friends, school, company, club, or organization, as well as any competing companies' projects or products;
  • instead, you are encouraged to propose changes on the Talk pages of affected article(s) (see the {{request edit}} template);
  • when discussing affected articles, disclose your COI (see WP:DISCLOSE);
  • avoid linking to the Wikipedia article or to the website of your organization in other articles (see WP:SPAM);
  • exercise great caution so that you do not violate Wikipedia's content policies.

In addition, you must 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 WP:PAID).

Please take a few moments to read and review Wikipedia's policies regarding conflicts of interest, especially those pertaining to neutral point of view, sourcing and autobiographies. Thank you.

Comments and requests

[edit]

Wikipedia is a widely-used reference work and managing conflict of interest is essential for ensuring the integrity of Wikipedia and retaining the public's trust in it. As in academia, COI is managed here in two steps - disclosure and a form of peer review. Please note that there is no bar to being part of the Wikipedia community if you want to be involved in articles where you have a conflict of interest; there are just some things we ask you to do (and if you are paid, some things you need to do).

Disclosure is the most important, and first, step. While I am not asking you to disclose your identity (anonymity is strictly protecting by our WP:OUTING policy) would you please disclose if you have some connection with companies whose articles you have worked on, directly or through a third party (e.g. a PR agency or the like)? You can answer how ever you wish (giving personally identifying information or not), but if there is a connection, please disclose it. After you respond (and you can just reply below), I can walk you through how the "peer review" part happens and then, if you like, I can provide you with some more general orientation as to how this place works. Please reply here, just below, to keep the discussion in one place. Thanks! Jytdog (talk) 18:03, 24 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Hi there! What do you need from me? My FB account or something more? I'm not related to DesignContest, I simply have a project at my university connected with Wikipedia (I'm from Ukraine and this project is for my English classes) and was trying to place the article in it. Also, I find Wikipedia articles really fascinating and would like to keep posting other articles about other companies and phenomena in an encyclopedical way. Sorry for those links, I just couldn't find my first article about DesignContest from Wikipedia in any search engines (thought it was missing only in Ukrainian ones but it turned out to be missing everywhere). I won't place the links again, don't worry. However, could you walk me through the main concepts of Wikipedia, for I'm just a newbie now? But I promise to learn quickly!Natantiuk (talk) 14:16, 25 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks for replying. Quick note on the logistics of discussing things on Talk pages, which are essential for everything that happens here. In Talk page discussions, we "thread" comments by indenting - when you reply to someone, you put a colon ":" in front of your comment, and the WP software converts that into an indent; if the other person has indented once, then you indent twice by putting two colons "::" which the WP software converts into two indents, and when that gets ridiculous you reset back to the margin (or "outdent") by putting this {{od}} in front of your comment. This also allows you to make it clear if you are also responding to something that someone else responded to if there are more than two people in the discussion; in that case you would indent the same amount as the person just above you in the thread. I hope that all makes sense. And at the end of the comment, please "sign" by typing exactly four (not 3 or 5) tildas "~~~~" which the WP software converts into a date stamp and links to your talk and user pages. That is how we know who said what. I know this is hard to use, but this is the software environment we have to work on. Sorry about that. Will reply on the substance in a second...

As I said your edits look exactly like paid editors. Please stop adding badly sourced, promotional content to Wikipedia. If you use higher quality sources (good newspapers like the New York Times, and never press releases or content from a company website, you editing would improve a great deal. You might find User:Jytdog/How for some more guidance. Jytdog (talk) 17:35, 25 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Hello Natantiuk, I have reverted your good-faith edit to this article as you didn't provide a reliable source for this information. Ideally all non-trivial content should be based on some kind of reliable published source (books, journals, newspapers, expert websites, ...), so other editors and readers can verify the given information. Please feel free to ask me if you have further questions about this edit. Best regards. GermanJoe (talk) 16:45, 23 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for your recent contributions. Getting started creating new articles on Wikipedia can be tricky, and you might like to try creating a draft version first, which you can then ask for feedback on if necessary, with less risk of deletion. Do make sure you also read help available to you, including Your First Article and the Tutorial. You might also like to try the Article Wizard, which has an option to create a draft version. I would definitely emphasise how good Your First Article is to help you learn how to write good articles here. Thank you.  Seagull123  Φ  17:07, 23 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Natantiuk (talk) 17:49, 23 June 2017 (UTC)Seagull123, thank you for your explanation but my request refers to the article I posted 4 months ago, DesignContest. I did my best to provide a deep research, I refered to credible sources and still 4 months later my article got deleted without any notifications. Before that, I received no complaints regarding that article. I feel a bit offended because that was my first experience with Wikipedia and, as far as I understand how significant, huge, and useful Wiki is, I wanted to contribute as well and thought I succeeded in that. I just want you to explain it to me why that article got deleted. Thank you for your understanding and sorry for bothering you again.[reply]

Hi, looking at the deletion log for DesignContest, I cannot see any article from four months ago, only one which was deleted three times in 2014, and one deleted earlier this month. Maybe it was located somewhere else? I also cannot see any other article from four months ago in the list of your contributions. But I would suggest you ask DGG, who deleted the page, and ask for more information on the deletion of the article. And please do continue to help contribute, but make sure you read Your First Article, and then use the Article Wizard to write any other page you may wish to create - this way, the risk of deletion is minimised. I would also suggest reading the comments and messages left for you above on this talk page.  Seagull123  Φ  18:25, 23 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]
looking at the deleted article, the first sentence in the main section was "The main idea of this platform is to provide a simple, sophisticated and yet affordable design by crowdsourcing" , and it continued in that tone: "beneficial" , "much easier", "more appealing". It claims to represent work by 160,000 professional designers, an highly exceptional claim sourced only to the firm's own web page. The references are almost entirely mere listings in general articles on web design for beginners. I see no present prospect of an article here. Even if there should be references providing substantial coverage from third-party independent reliable sources, to show notability, the style of writing indicates that you have too much conflict of interest to be writing it.
Based on your edit summary for the now deleted promotional article on Honeyville, Inc., you are a paid editor, and you have never properly declared it. Please see our Terms of Use, particularly with respect to paid contributions without disclosure. Very few people have successfully done this--articles written by paid editors, declared or undeclared, are generally quickly deleted because it takes unusual skill to be able to write to our standards with such a direct financial conflict of interest.
I am adding a formal warning below. If you continue to add such content to WP you will be permanently blocked, as have been many thousands of would-be promotional editors. We have not yet removed them all, but by the combined efforts and vigilance of many editors here, such as those who have commented above, I hope we will.

Information icon Please do not add inappropriate external links to Wikipedia, as you did to DesignCrowd. Wikipedia is not a collection of links, nor should it be used for advertising or promotion. Inappropriate links include, but are not limited to, links to personal websites, links to websites with which you are affiliated (whether as a link in article text, or a citation in an article), and links that attract visitors to a website or promote a product. See the external links guideline and spam guideline for further explanations. Because Wikipedia uses the nofollow attribute value, its external links are disregarded by most search engines. If you feel the link should be added to the page, please discuss it on the associated talk page rather than re-adding it. Thank you. Theroadislong (talk) 18:14, 23 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]
