Proposed deletion of File:PaillaMallareddy.jpg

The file File:PaillaMallareddy.jpg has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Claim of being copyright holder is not credible. The watermarking on the image would indicate this is likely copied from some web site.

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 files}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the file's talk page.

Please consider addressing the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated files}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and files for discussion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. Whpq (talk) 13:40, 13 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

The picture is taken by me. I allow free use of the file without any conditions/limitations. Please suggest a correct tag, if the one i used now is not reflect my intent. Thank you!Sriniguduru (talk) 18:33, 16 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

The file is watermarked. That is typical of pictures that have been copied from some web site. Per WP:WATERMARK, free images should not be watermarked. Please upload a version without the watermark. -- Whpq (talk) 19:28, 16 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

@Whpq, Thank you for pointing out. updated picture without the watermark. Please let me know if this is ok now. Sriniguduru (talk) 05:18, 17 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

No, that is not what I meant. You stated that you took the picture. So what you should do is upload the original picture that you took before you added the watermark. -- Whpq (talk) 10:48, 17 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

@Whpq, I uploaded the file without the watermark. The current one on the file history now is the one without the water mark(current 16:57, 18 May 2018). Apologies if this still doesn't meet the WIKI rules i will remove it for now as it is delaying submission of the story for review. Much appreciate the followups.

Your submission at Articles for creation: sandbox (May 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 ToThAc was:

This submission's references do not adequately show the subject's notability. Wikipedia requires significant coverage (not just mere mentions) about the subject in published, reliable, secondary sources that are independent of the subject—see the guidelines on the notability of people, the golden rule and learn about mistakes to avoid when addressing this issue. Please improve the submission's referencing (see Wikipedia:Referencing for beginners and Help:Introduction to referencing/1), so that the information is verifiable, and there is clear evidence of why the subject is notable and worthy of inclusion in an encyclopedia. If additional reliable sources cannot be found for the subject, then it may not be suitable for Wikipedia at this time.

The comment the reviewer left was:

YouTube is not a reliable source.

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.

Hi @Robert McClenon, I want the sandbox to prevail as the draft i created has some praise about the gentlemen. I cleaned these remarks up and tried to make it as neutral as possible and added some more content in my sandbox. I would appreciate you review the sandbox one. I can withdraw this draft:Draft:Pailla Malla Reddy (2) from submission. please advise. Sriniguduru (talk) 23:08, 27 May 2018 (UTC) Hi @Robert McClenon, I just saw the redirection to the draft(2) from sandbox. I am fine with the move, except that the title be prefixed with Dr.. I edited Draft:Pailla Malla Reddy (2) to remove the praises and make it neutral if this version is what you are considering. Please advise. Sriniguduru (talk) 23:31, 27 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Your submission at Articles for creation: Pailla Malla Reddy (2) (June 16)

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

This submission does not appear to be written in the formal tone expected of an encyclopedia article. Entries should be written from a neutral point of view, and should refer to a range of independent, reliable, published sources. Please rewrite your submission in a more encyclopedic format. Please make sure to avoid peacock terms that promote the subject.

The comment the reviewer left was:

The person, maybe notable if other and more reliable sources are provided to verify but even if that happens, quite a part of this needs to be written according to WP:NPOV.

Declare any connection

Hello Sriniguduru. The nature of your edits gives the impression you have an undisclosed financial stake in promoting a topic, such as the edit you made to Draft:Pailla Malla Reddy (2), and that 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 egregious type of COI; the Wikimedia Foundation regards it as a "black hat" practice akin to Black hat SEO.

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, and if it does not, 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:Sriniguduru. The template {{Paid}} can be used for this purpose – e.g. in the form: {{paid|user=Sriniguduru|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, please do not edit further until you answer this message. --Worldbruce (talk) 17:35, 6 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Hi @Worldbruce, I have to confirm that I am neither directly nor indirectly being compensated for the article/edits. I am only trying to create a simple, honest article on Dr. Malla Reddy, a philanthropist, industrialist, founder of Telangana American Telugu Association. Will highly appreciate your guidance in correcting any mistakes and getting the article done right. Thank you! Sriniguduru (talk) 19:25, 9 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Hi @Worldbruce, Thanks for your detailed feedback. This is neither a praise nor an attempt to use WIKI for promoting Dr. Malla Reddy but to record the impact he made for the hundreds of thousands of Telugu community and non-Telugu community here is the US and in India. I agree with your observation, the introductory para (draft description) could have been done better to capture the significant contributions he made. To quote a few, thanks to a water project he got built eradicated Florosis, saving the lives of thousands of villagers living in in Nalgonda, Telangana. As a national organization, Telanagana America Telugu Association, the organization he founded, represents the heart beat of 35 million Telanganites in India and more than 100,000 here in the US, channeling, energies, finances for the welfare of the poor. These are couple of many more of his great deeds which touched hundreds of thousands of lives of Telanganites in India. The association's hundreds of blood drives/soup kitchens/winter coat drives through out the country, in association with churches, Red cross and voluntary organizations, has helped many a needy in the US.

I will rewrite the content keeping in mind your observations and will send for your perusal. I will also add more independent links supporting his service.

Do you suggest editing the article in the sandbox instead of as a Draft?

Thanks!
