User talk:80sloVerS1
Welcome!
[edit]Hello, 80sloVerS1, 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.
Here are some pages that you might find helpful:

- Hi Jim,
- thank you for your message, I appreciate your guidance.
- Stacey used to have a wikipedia page but it was put down in October because the music chart placement listed wasn't recognised internationally. We didn't know at the time and couldn't do the amendments suggested.
- She is in the public eye, and has hundreds of articles written about her/her songs and her tv show. Could you please assist me in how we can get her page back up?
- Thank you, 80sloVerS1 (talk) 14:11, 24 May 2022 (UTC)

- Wikipedia does not have "pages", it has articles, and those articles are not owned by their subjects. Any article about Shirley Jackson must summarize what independent reliable sources with significant coverage have chosen on their own to say about her, showing how she meets the special Wikipedia definition of a notable person or (more narrowly) a notable singer. "Significant coverage" does not include interviews with the subject, press releases, routine announcements, or other primary sources.
- If you work for or represent Jackson, you must make a formal paid editing declaration, which is a Terms of Use requirement. You should also review conflict of interest. 331dot (talk) 17:36, 24 May 2022 (UTC)

- If you would like to continue working on the submission, go to Draft:Stacey Jackson and click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window.
- If you now believe the draft cannot meet Wikipedia's standards or do not wish to progress it further, you may request deletion. Please go to Draft:Stacey Jackson, click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window, add "{{Db-g7}}" at the top of the draft text and click the blue "publish changes" button to save this edit.
- If you do not make any further changes to 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.

Hello, 80sloVerS1!
Having an article draft declined at Articles for Creation can be disappointing. If you are wondering why your article submission was declined, please post a question at the Articles for creation help desk. If you have any other questions about your editing experience, we'd love to help you at the Teahouse, a friendly space on Wikipedia where experienced editors lend a hand to help new editors like yourself! See you there! PRAXIDICAE💕 16:03, 24 May 2022 (UTC)

Hello 80sloVerS1. 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:80sloVerS1. The template {{Paid}} can be used for this purpose – e.g. in the form: {{paid|user=80sloVerS1|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. 331dot (talk) 11:07, 25 May 2022 (UTC)
- Thank you for all your guidance and advise. I will look at this all and submit via article for creation process or talk page. + add the affiliation details. 80sloVerS1 (talk) 11:35, 25 May 2022 (UTC)
- You should also disclose on your user page. 331dot (talk) 13:24, 25 May 2022 (UTC)
