Anchor Hanover Group[edit]

I suggest you take out this list of board members. Looks too much like corporate advertising. Take off the categories until it's approved. And, if you can, find more external coverage. Rathfelder (talk) 11:40, 19 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

- Thank you for these suggestions, I've taken the board members and categories off and will continue to look for additional sources. Kathryn Blackwood (talk) 14:28, 19 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Conflict of interest?[edit]

Hi Kathryn. I see that the linkedin page for "Kathryn (Charles-Wilson) Blackwood" says she is the "Web Content Executive at Anchor Hanover Group" - I presume that is you? I think you should study the Wikipedia:Conflict of interest policy if you are in that position. Particularly it says "Editors with a COI, including paid editors, are expected to disclose it whenever they seek to change an affected article's content ... COI editors should not edit affected articles directly, but propose changes on article talk pages instead." I personally take a more relaxed view than that, but I think a COI editor should not delete anything that could be perceived to be critical, but rather make a case on the article Talk page for others to decide to delete or not.

Your submission at Articles for creation: Anchor Hanover Group (December 28)[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 CNMall41 was:

This submission appears to read more like an advertisement than an entry in an encyclopedia. Encyclopedia articles need to be written from a neutral point of view, and should refer to a range of independent, reliable, published sources, not just to materials produced by the creator of the subject being discussed. This is important so that the article can meet Wikipedia's verifiability policy and the notability of the subject can be established. If you still feel that this subject is worthy of inclusion in Wikipedia, please rewrite your submission to comply with these policies.

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:Anchor Hanover Group 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:Anchor Hanover Group, click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window, add "{{db-self}}" at the top of the draft text and click the blue "publish changes" button to save this edit.
If you need any assistance, you can ask for help at the Articles for creation help desk or on the reviewer's talk page.
You can also use Wikipedia's real-time chat help from experienced editors.
