Tips

Don't be afraid to edit! Just find something that can be improved and make it better. Other editors will help fix any mistakes you make.
It's normal to feel a little overwhelmed, but don't worry if you don't understand everything at first—it's fine to edit using common sense.
If an edit you make is reverted, you can discuss the issue at the article's talk page. Sign your messages with four tildes (~~~~), be civil, and don't restore the edit unless there is consensus.
When adding new content to an article, always include a citation to a reliable source.
If you wish to edit about a subject with which you are affiliated, read our conflict of interest guide and disclose your connection.
Have fun! Your presence in the Wikipedia community is welcome.

Happy editing! Cheers, Comr Melody Idoghor (talk) 13:26, 2 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Your submission at Articles for creation: Aamina Ahmad (April 8)[edit]

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

Thank you for your submission, but the subject of this article already exists in Wikipedia. You can find it and improve it at Aamina Ahmad instead.

The comment the reviewer left was:

Two copies of this page have been created, in draft space and in article space. It is not necessary to create two copies of the same page, and it annoys the reviewers. This is sometimes done in order to bypass Articles for Creation review. However, if a submitter is ready to have the article in article space, it can be moved into article space, rather than creating a copy. It is common for a page that has been duplicated in draft space and in article space to be nominated for deletion or proposed for deletion.

If the article is kept, this draft should be redirected to the article. If the article is deleted, this draft may be kept for future improvement.

This draft is either essentially the same as the article with the same name, or a subset of the article with the same name. The draft will be replaced by a redirect from draft space to the article.

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 when they have been resolved.

If you would like to continue working on the submission, go to Draft:Aamina Ahmad and click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window.
If you now believe the draft cannot meet Wikipedia's standards or do not wish to progress it further, you may request deletion. Please go to Draft:Aamina Ahmad, click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window, add "{{Db-g7}}" at the top of the draft text and click the blue "publish changes" button to save this edit.
If you do not make any further changes to your draft, in 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.

Hello, Iowawrwrkshp! Having an article declined at Articles for Creation can be disappointing. If you are wondering why your article submission was declined, please post a question at the Articles for creation help desk. If you have any other questions about your editing experience, we'd love to help you at the Teahouse, a friendly space on Wikipedia where experienced editors lend a hand to help new editors like yourself! See you there! Robert McClenon (talk) 22:06, 8 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Ben Shattuck moved to draftspace[edit]

An article you recently created, Ben Shattuck, is not suitable as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. (?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of "Draft:" before the article title) where you can incubate the article 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. DoubleGrazing (talk) 06:55, 13 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, I've moved this article back into the draft space. It appears to me based on your user name that you are likely to have a conflict of interest (COI), and for that reason you should submit your draft for review via the Articles for Creation (AfC) process rather than publishing directly.

I have not submitted the draft for review yet; you are welcome to do so by clicking the blue 'Submit' button.

I will post a separate message below to help you deal with any COI issue.

Best, -- DoubleGrazing (talk) 07:00, 13 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Managing a conflict of interest[edit]

Hello, Iowawrwrkshp. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about on the page Draft:Ben Shattuck, 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 organizations for more information. We ask that you:

avoid editing or creating articles about yourself, your family, friends, colleagues, company, organization or competitors;
propose changes on the talk pages of affected articles (you can use the {{request edit}} 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. DoubleGrazing (talk) 07:01, 13 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Your submission at Articles for creation: Naomi Jackson (April 14)[edit]

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed! Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reasons left by Timtrent were:

This submission's references do not show that the subject qualifies for a Wikipedia article—that is, they do not show significant coverage (not just passing mentions) about the subject in published, reliable, secondary sources that are independent of the subject (see the guidelines on the notability of people). Before any resubmission, additional references meeting these criteria should be added (see technical help and learn about mistakes to avoid when addressing this issue). If no additional references exist, the subject is not suitable for Wikipedia.

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 when they have been resolved.

You might get a Wikipedian who is prepared to teach you. But, since you are paid to edit here you will find that very few editors have any interest in helping you earn your living. Yoiu mustleanr what is required and only submit your drafts when they are ready.

Paid editors may be allowed, but it is that you are tolerated, not welcomed. Your job is to learn yoiur trade without troubling the rest of us. Please use your payments and learn what it takes to get your articles accepted here.

Work well and there is almost a guarantee of acceptance. Work poorly and you will find your clients do not pay your invoices. 🇺🇦 Fiddle^Timtrent Faddle^Talk to me 🇺🇦 09:21, 14 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

April 2022[edit]

Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, articles should not be moved without good reason. They should have a name that is both accurate and intuitive. Wikipedia has some guidelines in place to help with this. Generally, a page should only be moved to a new title if the current name doesn't follow these guidelines. Also, if a page move is being discussed, consensus needs to be reached before anybody moves the page. If you would like to experiment with page titles and moving, please use the test Wikipedia. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Paid editors may not move drafts to main space 🇺🇦 Fiddle^Timtrent Faddle^Talk to me 🇺🇦 07:20, 14 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Please do not add promotional material to Wikipedia, as you did to Bread Loaf Writers' Conference. While objective prose about beliefs, organisations, people, products or services is acceptable, Wikipedia is not a vehicle for soapboxing, advertising or promotion. Thank you.

I am not paid but simply trying to create pages of writers of color with national awards who are sorely underrepresented. You seem to have a personal vendetta and a need to gatekeep which is very odd. There are many pages I have referenced with less notability and fewer sourcing that you have not made it a personal mission to attack. I have never written anything untoward and have included negative reviews. Hope you have a good day. Iowawrwrkshp (talk) 17:14, 14 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

But you state on your user page that you have been paid by University of Iowa for your contributions to Wikipedia? Theroadislong (talk) 17:26, 14 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

For the first page I made which was accepted. Not for the two you took down. Have a great day. Iowawrwrkshp (talk) 00:25, 22 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
