User talk:Katgrahamcontent

Welcome

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

I notice 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 reverted for this very reason.

To reduce the chances of deletion, you might like to draft your article before submission, then ask me or any other editor to proofread it. To start creating a draft article, just click your user name at the top of the screen when you are logged in, and edit that page as you would any other. 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.

The one firm 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. It is also worth noting that Wikipedia generally does not allow editors to have usernames which specifically link them to one company or corporation. If your username does have such a name, it would be advisable for you to request a change of username.

If you are stuck, and looking for help, please come to the New contributors' help page, where experienced Wikipedians can answer any queries you have! You can also just type {{helpme}} on your user page, and someone will show up shortly to answer your questions. Here are a few other good links for newcomers:

I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Please sign your name on talk pages using four tildes (~~~~); this will automatically produce your name and the date. If you have any questions, check out Wikipedia:Where to ask a question or ask me on my talk page. Again, welcome! Cind.amuse 21:54, 15 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Katerina Graham

Hi! Welcome again to Wikipedia. As an encyclopedia, Wikipedia presents information of individuals, organization, corporations, intellectual property, and various defined entities that have been deemed notable according to established policies and guidelines. Information is culled from sources that are both reliable and independent of the subject. Wikipedia does not accept content that is deemed original research or unpublished previously in some capacity through either print or electronic media. Oftentimes, when subjects of articles are still living, they find some information or content objectionable, including information that they would prefer to keep hidden. In this case, Wikipedia's policies and guidelines pertaining to biographies of living persons state that while editors are forbidden from adding contentious content that has not been sourced to a reliable source, they are also instructed not to censor information and content, simply because the subject objects.

While you are most certainly welcome to edit the Katerina Graham article, it is apparent that you have a conflict of interest. Reverting edits of other editors to a desired version, outside of consensus of all involved editors is outside the scope of maintaining an appropriate conflict of interest. Accordingly, your recent edits to the Katerina Graham have been removed due to the introduction of content that is determined unencyclopedic in nature and contrary to Wikipedia's Manual of Style. Essentially, it appears that the subject is using Wikipedia as a webhost and platform to present, promote, and manage her image in the public. This is contrary to the purposes of Wikipedia. I certainly realize that this must be frustrating for you. At this time, I would request that prior to making bold revisions (such as reverting the entire article to a former version) you present your editing ideas on the talk page for other editors to weigh in with a response and recommendation, providing opportunity for consensus. I would also like to invite you to check out the Wikiproject for writing and developing articles on actors and filmmakers. You may find it interesting and fun to offer your insight and ideas on articles similar to that of Katerina Graham. I have attached below, a list of Wikipedia policies and guidelines that may assist you in your time on Wikipedia. Please don't hesitate to ask, if you have any questions.
