Institute of Management Consultants New Zealand moved to draftspace

Thanks for your contributions to Institute of Management Consultants New Zealand. Unfortunately, I do not think it is ready for publishing at this time because it needs more sources to establish notability and it is promotional and reads like an advertisement. I have converted your article to a draft which you can improve, undisturbed for a while.

Please see more information at Help:Unreviewed new page. When the article is ready for publication, please click on the "Submit for review" button at the top of the page OR move the page back. BoyTheKingCanDance (talk) 17:58, 27 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for your feedback. I am not sure what to do to address the concerns you have raised. It is hard to add an article about an organisation without saying what it is and what it does which is what I have done. How do I avoid that being "promotional"? This is a voluntary not-for profit group. It is not the subject of media or academic debate and is not generally written about by others so I am not sure what "sources" I can cite to establish notability. I am happy to make change to improve the article but I am unsure how to do so. i tried to keep the article simple, modelling it on an existing article in the same category which is very similar but has not been flagged: https://wiki.riteme.site/wiki/Institute_of_Public_Administration_New_Zealand Enzedscribe (talk) 21:30, 27 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks. I have edited the page now and submitted it for review Enzedscribe (talk) 03:17, 28 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Your submission at Articles for creation: Institute of Management Consultants New Zealand (November 28)

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

This draft's references do not show that the subject qualifies for a Wikipedia article. In summary, the draft needs multiple published sources that are:

in-depth (not just brief mentions about the subject or routine announcements)
reliable
secondary
strictly independent of the subject

Make sure you add references that meet all four of these criteria before resubmitting. Learn about mistakes to avoid when addressing this issue. If no additional references exist, the subject is not suitable for Wikipedia.

The comment the reviewer left was:

Primary sources do not establish notability per WP:ORG.

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:Institute of Management Consultants New Zealand 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.

Speedy deletion of Draft:Institute of Management Consultants New Zealand

If this was the first article that you created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.
You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

The page Draft:Institute of Management Consultants New Zealand has been speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This was done under section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page appeared to be an unambiguous copyright infringement. This page appeared to be a direct copy from https://imcnz.org.nz/about/. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images taken from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition has been be deleted. You may use external websites or other printed material as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. This part is crucial: say it in your own words. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.

If the external website or image belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text or image — which means allowing other people to use it for any reason — then you must verify that externally by one of the processes explained at Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials. The same holds if you are not the owner but have their permission. If you are not the owner and do not have permission, see Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission for how you may obtain it. You might want to look at Wikipedia's copyright policy for more details, or ask a question here.

Please do not recreate the material without addressing these concerns, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If you think this page should not have been deleted for this reason, you may contact the deleting administrator, or if you have already done so, you may open a discussion at Wikipedia:Deletion review.

Managing a conflict of interest

Hello, Enzedscribe. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about on Wikipedia, you may have a conflict of interest (COI). Editors with a conflict of interest may be unduly influenced by their connection to the topic. See the conflict of interest guideline and FAQ for article subjects for more information. We ask that you:

avoid editing or creating articles about yourself, your family, friends, colleagues, company, organization, clients, or competitors;
propose changes on the talk pages of affected articles (you can use the {{edit COI}} template), including links or details of reliable sources that support your suggestions;
disclose your conflict of interest when discussing affected articles (see Wikipedia:Conflict of interest § How to disclose a COI);
avoid linking to your organization's website in other articles (see Wikipedia:Spam § External link spamming);
do your best to comply with Wikipedia's content policies.

In addition, you are required by the Wikimedia Foundation's terms of use to disclose your employer, client, and affiliation with respect to any contribution which forms all or part of work for which you receive, or expect to receive, compensation. See Wikipedia:Paid-contribution disclosure.

Also, editing for the purpose of advertising, publicizing, or promoting anyone or anything is not permitted. Thank you. DoubleGrazing (talk) 07:27, 28 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I am involved in the organisation I have written about in a voluntary capacity. I receive no remuneration from them whatsoever. On the vontrary I do extensive pro bono work for them for ethical reasons and I resent the implication that I have written the article for personal gain. Enzedscribe (talk) 07:54, 28 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Okay, thank you. You may still come under the paid-editing rules, eg. unpaid interns do; I'm not entirely sure. But what I am sure is that you have a COI, which needs to be disclosed. If you prefer to make the generic (ie. not paid-editing) disclosure, use the {{User COI}} template. Thanks, -- DoubleGrazing (talk) 08:04, 28 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
