[edit]Welcome to Wikipedia. Everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia. However, please do not add promotional material to articles or other Wikipedia pages, as you did to A1 Academia. Advertising and using Wikipedia as a "soapbox" are against Wikipedia policy and not permitted. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about Wikipedia. Thank you.

Please refrain from introducing inappropriate pages, such as A1 Academia, to Wikipedia, as doing so is not in accordance with our policies. For more information about creating articles, you may want to read Wikipedia:Your first article; you might also consider using the Article Wizard. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. Thank you. ConcernedVancouverite (talk) 23:10, 15 August 2012 (UTC)
Orphaned non-free media (File:A1 Academia Logo.png)
[edit]Thanks for uploading File:A1 Academia Logo.png. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, it is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the media was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that media for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).
If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'file' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "File" from the dropdown box. Note that all non-free media not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Hazard-Bot (talk) 04:24, 17 August 2012 (UTC)

[edit]Hello, I'm Mikemoral. I noticed that you recently removed some content from A1 Academia, with this edit, without explaining why. In the future, it would be helpful to others if you described your changes to Wikipedia with an edit summary. If this was a mistake, don't worry, I restored the removed content. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks! —Mikemoral♪♫ 08:43, 10 April 2013 (UTC)

ConcernedVancouverite Hello ConcernedVancouverite, I understand my position and the guidelines about conflict of interest. My worry is that A1_Academia stands little chance to have its story on wikipedia. I am a conflicted editor and will abide to guidelines stipulated Ndeangotho (talk) 15:02, 8 July 2013 (UTC)
- Thank you for acknowledging your conflict of interest. Unfortunately Wikipedia is not a place to have a promotional story told. Once the software is more notable as noted by third party independent reliable sources it could then be eligible for a stand alone article. Prior to that it is too soon for an article about it.

[edit]Hello, Ndeangotho. We welcome your contributions to Wikipedia, but if you are affiliated with some of the people, places or things you have written about in the article A1_Academia, you may have a conflict of interest or close connection to the subject.
All editors are required to comply with Wikipedia's neutral point of view content policy. People who are very close to a subject often have a distorted view of it, which may cause them to inadvertently edit in ways that make the article either too flattering or too disparaging. People with a close connection to a subject are not absolutely prohibited from editing about that subject, but they need to be especially careful about ensuring their edits are verified by reliable sources and writing with as little bias as possible.
If you are very close to a subject, here are some ways you can reduce the risk of problems:
- Avoid or exercise great caution when editing or creating articles related to you, your organization, or its competitors, as well as projects and products they are involved with.
- Be cautious about deletion discussions. Everyone is welcome to provide information about independent sources in deletion discussions, but avoid advocating for deletion of articles about your competitors.
- Avoid linking to the Wikipedia article or website of your organization in other articles (see Wikipedia:Spam).
- Exercise great caution so that you do not accidentally breach Wikipedia's content policies.
Please familiarize yourself with relevant content policies and guidelines, especially those pertaining to neutral point of view, verifiability of information, and autobiographies.
For information on how to contribute to Wikipedia when you have a conflict of interest, please see our frequently asked questions for organizations. Thank you. Based upon your request here [1] it sounds as if you may potentially have a conflict of interest. Please also review WP:OWN regarding ownership of articles.
