Your submission at Articles for creation: Genusee (May 18)

Your recent article submission has been rejected. If you have further questions, you can ask at the Articles for creation help desk or use Wikipedia's real-time chat help. The reason left by Aplucas0703 was: This submission is contrary to the purpose of Wikipedia. The comment the reviewer left was: While we appreciate your desire to contribute to Wikipedia, you should not write about yourself or your business, as it decreases trust in the neutrality of the encyclopedia. For further information about Wikipedia's policies on this topic, please see WP:COI and WP:NOTYOU. Unfortunately, I must reject your draft, as it is contrary to the purpose of Wikipedia.

Welcome!

Hello, Burnj396, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions.

I noticed that one of the first articles you edited was Draft:Genusee, which 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.

Blocked for sockpuppetry

You have been blocked indefinitely from editing for abusing multiple accounts per the evidence presented at Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Burnj396. Note that multiple accounts are allowed, but not for illegitimate reasons, and any contributions made while evading blocks or bans may be reverted or deleted.

If you think there are good reasons for being unblocked, please read the guide to appealing blocks, then add the following text at the bottom of your talk page: {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}}. UtherSRG (talk) 16:12, 30 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Concern regarding Draft:Genusee

Hello, Burnj396. This is a bot-delivered message letting you know that Draft:Genusee, a page you created, has not been edited in at least 5 months. Drafts that have not been edited for six months may be deleted, so if you wish to retain the page, please edit it again or request that it be moved to your userspace.

If the page has already been deleted, you can request it be undeleted so you can continue working on it.

Thank you for your submission to Wikipedia. FireflyBot (talk) 20:01, 18 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Your draft article, Draft:Genusee

Hello, Burnj396. It has been over six months since you last edited the Articles for Creation submission or Draft page you started, "Genusee".

In accordance with our policy that Wikipedia is not for the indefinite hosting of material deemed unsuitable for the encyclopedia mainspace, the draft has been deleted. When you plan on working on it further and you wish to retrieve it, you can request its undeletion. An administrator will, in most cases, restore the submission so you can continue to work on it.

Thanks for your submission to Wikipedia, and happy editing. Liz ^{Read! Talk!} 19:37, 18 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
