Florida Atlantic University College of Social Work and Criminal Justice moved to draftspace
[edit]An article you recently created, Florida Atlantic University College of Social Work and Criminal Justice, is not suitable as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources, so that it can pass notability criteria.(?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). Per your request, I've moved the article to draftspace (with a prefix of "Draft:
" before the article title) where you can work on it with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page. Or ping me, and I'll be happy to take a look at it.Onel5969 TT me 10:35, 27 February 2023 (UTC)
- Thank you! Roaringwikifan (talk) 10:45, 27 February 2023 (UTC)
- Submitted the draft @Onel5969. I would love for your to take a look at it and I certainly appreciate any feedback. Thank you. Roaringwikifan (talk) 17:54, 27 February 2023 (UTC)
Links to draft articles
[edit]Please do not introduce links in actual articles to draft articles, as you did to Florida Atlantic University. Since a draft is not yet ready for the main article space, it is not in shape for ordinary readers, and links from articles should not go to a draft. Such links are contrary to the Manual of Style. These links have been removed. Thank you. - Arjayay (talk) 15:12, 29 June 2023 (UTC)

Managing a conflict of interest
[edit]Hello, Roaringwikifan. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about on the page Florida Atlantic University, 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);
- 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, publicising, or promoting anyone or anything is not permitted. Thank you. signed, Rosguill talk 18:22, 6 March 2024 (UTC)
- Hello @Rosguill, I have no affiliation nor receive compensation in any way. I noticed the university had a page for all other colleges except their social work college. My editing history shows that I typically make edits to university and education-related pages. Thank you. Roaringwikifan (talk) 08:53, 9 March 2024 (UTC)
- That seems a little far-fetched to me, given that nearly all of your edits since February 2023 have been dedicated to writing about schools in FAU. Could you explain this pattern of editing please?
- The decision to revert the article to a redirect was primarily based on Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Florida Atlantic University College of Social Work and Criminal Justice; the changes made since that discussion did not adequately address the concerns raised by other editors at AfD. signed, Rosguill talk 14:49, 9 March 2024 (UTC)
- Hi @Rosguill, thanks for your message. From what I know, editors tend to make repeated edits to items to work and improve them. If that wasn't the case, then all editors might as well be accused of COI if they work on items for too long.
- As I'm sure you understand, coming on here without any affiliation, nor compensation, nor are they my employer, to be accused of COI is upsetting for someone who doesn't have one. Most people are straightforward about it or create articles that are littered with WP:Puffery so it's pretty clear. As to the AfD, I edited the language, added additional independent sources, and added it as a university stub. Of course, it could use some editing but I believe the article is a suitable stub for the mainspace, provides basic information that would be useful to a reader, and should be given the chance for improvement by other editors. Also, WP:DISC
- You know more than me- not sure if there is a dispute or appeal process here or a way to open a new AfD discussion. But again, I have no COI, and believe the article is a suitable stub for the mainspace and provides basic information that would be useful to a reader.
- Thanks again for the help. Roaringwikifan (talk) 18:47, 9 March 2024 (UTC)
- As it has been converted to a redirect per an AfD decision, you should only recreate Florida Atlantic University College of Social Work and Criminal Justice if you can find new sources not previously included in the article or identified in the AfD discussion, that make a clear case for establishing that the subject meets WP:GNG. While the article draft you submitted contained independent references, it did not contain independent references with significant coverage of the College of Social Work and Criminal Justice in particular, and this did not improve in the draft submitted since the AfD's closure, which appears to include exactly one additional source, [1], a press release in a local paper that does not provide more than a sentence of coverage about the subject. My assessment of the article is that not even one of the cited independent sources devotes sufficient coverage to this specific college to begin building a case for WP:ORGCRITE; to meet notability guidelines for an organization, you need to present several sources that meet this standard (and as it is a school within a broader, notable university, these sources should preferably address only the specific school, without devoting attention to other parts of the university, per WP:INHERIT). signed, Rosguill talk 13:56, 12 March 2024 (UTC)
- Also, it appears the article was recently deleted. Can you help restore it to the mainspace if it was deleted under this assumption? Again, I have no COI nor am I an advertiser. Thank you again! Roaringwikifan (talk) 09:02, 9 March 2024 (UTC)
