User talk:Mgjanulaitis

December 2023

Hello Mgjanulaitis. 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 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 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:Mgjanulaitis. The template {{Paid}} can be used for this purpose – e.g. in the form: {{paid|user=Mgjanulaitis|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) 20:59, 6 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I haven't made any edits and have not yet published my first article. Do I need to include this on my article which will be a 3rd person history of my company? Mgjanulaitis (talk) 21:18, 8 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

To meet the requirement you need only to place the notice described on your user page. There are templates to mark article/draft talk pages with a similar notice(see WP:PAID), but that can come later. 331dot (talk) 21:24, 8 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

OK I think I have done that correctly. I actually don't need a page for myself. I created this page to I could add my company bio and history like most of my other competitors have done. Mgjanulaitis (talk) 21:54, 8 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Your submission at Articles for creation: Corner Bowl Software (December 15)

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed. Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reason left by 331dot 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:

Wikipedia cannot be used as a source for other Wikipedia articles. Press releases are useless for establishing notability. This just summarizes the routine activities of the company.

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:Corner Bowl Software 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.
