User talk:SweetieMeringue

Welcome!

Hello, SweetieMeringue, 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.

Thank you for your help! I identified this submission with the COI tag because I wanted to be transparent, as per Wikipedia's policy, and I'm actively working to improve my submission. I think I must have accidentally submitted this for review because I intended to keep it in my sandbox until it was closer to being done. I'm looking at the link you provided "Plain and simple conflict of interest" and I'm sure it will point me in the right direction. I appreciate your help.

Would you please move my page Draft:Pete Guelli back to the sandbox so I can continue to make improvements? Thank you so much and sorry about the confusion. SweetieMeringue (talk) 05:28, 20 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

There is no need to do that. You can resubmit your draft for review now. 🔥YesI'mOnFire🔥^{(ContainThisEmber?)} 01:16, 22 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for your guidance! I'm still working on a neutral tone and supporting references but I hope to resubmit it soon. SweetieMeringue (talk) 15:35, 22 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Your submission at Articles for creation: Pete Guelli (July 31)

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

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 people). 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.

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:

Sources, for the most part, do not offer significant coverage of the subject which is necessary for notability. The NY Post is not reliable.

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:Pete Guelli 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.
