Articles you might like to edit, from SuggestBot[edit]
SuggestBot predicts that you will enjoy editing some of these articles. Have fun!
Note: All columns in this table are sortable, allowing you to rearrange the table so the articles most interesting to you are shown at the top. All images have mouse-over popups with more information. For more information about the columns and categories, please consult the documentation and please get in touch on SuggestBot's talk page with any questions you might have.
SuggestBot picks articles in a number of ways based on other articles you've edited, including straight text similarity, following wikilinks, and matching your editing patterns against those of other Wikipedians. It tries to recommend only articles that other Wikipedians have marked as needing work. Your contributions make Wikipedia better — thanks for helping.
If you have feedback on how to make SuggestBot better, please tell me on SuggestBot's talk page. Thanks from Nettrom (talk), SuggestBot's caretaker. -- SuggestBot (talk) 14:58, 31 August 2018 (UTC)
Paid editing?[edit]
Hello Dennyneanderthal. The nature of your edits gives the impression you have an undisclosed financial stake in promoting a topic, and that 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 egregious type of COI; the Wikimedia Foundation regards it as a "black hat" practice akin to Black hat SEO.
Paid advocates are very strongly discouraged from direct article editing, and should instead propose changes on the talk page of the article in question if an article exists, and if it does not, 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:Dennyneanderthal. The template {{Paid}} can be used for this purpose – e.g. in the form: {{paid|user=Dennyneanderthal|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, please do not edit further until you answer this message. GSS (talk|c|em) 17:02, 10 October 2018 (UTC)
- @GSS: Hi. I am not a paid editor, and I am really curious to know what it was about my edits that makes you think so. I pretty much randomly searched around Wikipedia looking for ways to be helpful. I did edit Dina Powell, whose Wiki has been going crazy lately, but that was in response to the news that she was in the running to replace Nikky Haley at the UN. I literally read an article about it and decided to add the information to her Wiki. No one paid me, or will be paying me to add that one sentence, which was, as far as I can tell, pretty neutral. Especially compared to what is going on over there now. Also, I got the Paid accusation before I edited Dina Powell's page, I believe. So I am truly baffled. Not sure if I will continue editing now. Waiting for your explanation. Thanks. Dennyneanderthal (talk) 08:59, 24 October 2018 (UTC)
Speedy deletion nomination of Simon Hooper[edit]
If this is the first article that you have 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.
A tag has been placed on Simon Hooper requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a real person or group of people that does not credibly indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please read more about what is generally accepted as notable.
If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator. Razer(talk) 10:31, 11 October 2018 (UTC)
The article Margarita Lazareva has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:
Fails WP:NTENNIS and WP:GNG
While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.
You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.
Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.

Mergers[edit]
I have reverted your merger of Landscape with a Red Cloud. This is because the stub article is sourced enough for notability. Please do look carefully at WP: Mergers. Eustachiusz (talk) 13:51, 5 November 2018 (UTC)
Elizabeth Eggert[edit]
Hello and thank you for your contributions. The Elizabeth Eggert article that you created yesterday is to me "close paraphrasing" of the cited source oregonencyclopedia.org. Please refer to WP:Close paraphrasing. I am pinging @Diannaa: to get her opinion. Thanks and regards, Biwom (talk) 01:12, 22 February 2019 (UTC)
- I agree that there's too much overlap between your source webpage and the material you placed in the article. I am listing the article at WP:CP, which means you've got the opportunity to re-write the content. Please see the full instructions in my next post. — Diannaa 🍁 (talk) 01:20, 22 February 2019 (UTC)
