Hello OswaldClara. 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:OswaldClara. The template {{Paid}} can be used for this purpose – e.g. in the form: {{paid|user=OswaldClara|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. HᴇʀᴘᴇᴛᴏGᴇɴᴇꜱɪꜱ (talk) 06:00, 20 November 2020 (UTC)

Hi HᴇʀᴘᴇᴛᴏGᴇɴᴇꜱɪꜱ (talk) , I am not being directly or indirectly compensated for my edits. Just a contributor with various different interests, ranging from analytics and up and coming hockey players to geo-demography and different companies. OswaldClara (talk) 23:16, 20 November 2020 (UTC)

ikidata weekly summary #443

Here's your quick overview of what has been happening around Wikidata over the last week.
  • Tool of the week
    • EntityShape.js is a script that allows you to check an Item against an EntitySchema. On the Item page, it will display various information about the Item, like the properties that should be present on the Item.
  • Development
    • Query Builder: We're making it possible to switch between querying for specific values (e.g. all Items with a specific post code) or any value (all Items with a post code statement regardless of which one it is)
    • Correcting the behaviour of what automatically happens on Wikidata when a page is moved on Wikipedia and co to an excluded namespace with the "suppress redirect" option (phab:T261275)
    • Making language fallback indicators not show up for language variant fallbacks in a few more places (phab:T267502)
    • Adding html language attributes for statements linking to Forms and Senses (phab:T267023)
    • Working on language and lexical category fields turning red on unfocus even though no changes are made after a change in ooui (phab:T266936)
    • Finished building the 1.35 versions of the Wikibase base and bundle docker images and published to dockerhub (phab:T264538)

Proposed deletion of Luke Hughes (ice hockey)

Notice

The article Luke Hughes (ice hockey) has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

WP:TOOSOON, doesn't meet WP:NHOCKEY or WP:GNG

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. signed, Rosguill talk 21:53, 18 December 2020 (UTC)

Hey OswaldClara! I think Luke Hughes has the potential to be notable as we get closer to the draft. I was wondering if you'd like the article moved to draft so it can be re-published once there are enough sources? Rosguill has agreed to this as well. HickoryOughtShirt?4 (talk) 17:34, 19 December 2020 (UTC)

Hi HickoryOughtShirt?4 and Rosguill, good idea. I'm a new editor, so I don't really know how this works. I just moved this to draft. Will you be republishing or is that something I need to do? Can I remove the proposed for deletion, now that it's in draft?

OswaldClara (talk) 21:25, 19 December 2020 (UTC)

I've taken care of removing the PROD tag and also deleting a redirect you left behind in the move, no further action needed on your end for now. signed, Rosguill talk 21:32, 19 December 2020 (UTC)

Thanks Rosguill! Heads up, I didn't look too much into Luke Hughes earlier, just saw him on a list of top prospects, but I see now that mock drafts have him going in the top 10: http://www.tankathon.com/nhl/players/luke-hughes There's also a couple interviews/articles on TSN/Sportsnet about him. For the time being, I've just added the references to the draft page. OswaldClara (talk) 21:38, 19 December 2020 (UTC)

In case you aren't familiar with them yet, the relevant guidelines for when a hockey player is considered notable are the general notability guideline (which applies to all articles) and the subject-notability guideline for hockey. In order to establish that a subject meets the former, you're going to want to collect multiple (in practice, three is a safe bet) examples of significant, secondary, non-routine independent coverage in reliable sources. Once you think those standards have been met, feel free to move the article back to mainspace. signed, Rosguill talk 21:42, 19 December 2020 (UTC)
Yes, I created Quinn Hughes prior to his draft but I have +20 sources and went through AfC. Just take time to polish it and it'll be awesome once it can be published. HickoryOughtShirt?4 (talk) 21:47, 19 December 2020 (UTC)
