Notability and External Sources

{{helpme}} A recent entry I created, Atlas Black: Managing to Succeed has been tagged with notability and unreferenced tags. I have now added a background section that builds on its notability and adds references. Two questions: (1) I'm wondering if what I did is enough, or if more is necessary, (2) if so, how does one go about asking for those tags to be removed. --Tkiyak (talk) 21:44, 22 September 2009 (UTC)

You could have asked Durova to look at the article again, as she was the editor who tagged it. However, I agree that you've established notability and have provided some reliable sources, so I have removed the tags. Still, I would prefer if you could replace the YouTube links with alternative references in order to improve things further. Thanks, ∙ AJCham^(talk) 21:59, 22 September 2009 (UTC)

Thank you for your assistance, AJCham. I had not contacted Durova since I was under the impression that she used an automated tool to mark it as such, but re-reading what Friendly is I see I misunderstood the tool. I do agree that contacting her would have been the appropriate action. I will look to see if I can find alternates to the Youtube links. Thanks again for all your help.

Managing a conflict of interest

Hello, Tkiyak. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about on the page Journal of International Business Studies, 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, 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. Randykitty (talk) 15:47, 11 December 2023 (UTC)
