User talk:Eli theGreat

Welcome![edit]

Hello, Eli theGreat, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions.

I noticed that one of the first articles you edited was Michael Dorf (entrepreneur), which appears to be dealing with a topic with which you may have a conflict of interest. In other words, you may find it difficult to write about that topic in a neutral and objective way, because you are, work for, or represent, the subject of that article. Your recent contributions may have already been undone for this very reason.

To reduce the chances of your contributions being undone, you might like to draft your revised article before submission, and then ask me or another editor to proofread it. See our help page on userspace drafts for more details. If the page you created has already been deleted from Wikipedia, but you want to save the content from it to use for that draft, don't hesitate to ask anyone from this list and they will copy it to your user page.

One rule we do have in connection with conflicts of interest is that accounts used by more than one person will unfortunately be blocked from editing. Wikipedia generally does not allow editors to have usernames which imply that the account belongs to a company or corporation. If you have a username like this, you should request a change of username or create a new account. (A name that identifies the user as an individual within a given organization may be OK.)

In addition, you must disclose your employer, client, and affiliation with respect to any contribution for which you receive, or expect to receive, compensation (see WP:PAID).

Here are some pages that you might find helpful:

How to create your first article (using the Article Wizard if you wish)

I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Please sign your messages on talk pages using four tildes (~~~~); this will automatically insert your username and the date. If you need help, check out Wikipedia:Questions, ask me on my talk page, or ask your question on this page and then place {{Help me}} before the question. Again, welcome!

COI[edit]

Welcome to Wikipedia. I notice all of your edits have to do with Michael Dorf (entrepreneur), and he happens to have a son with the same name as you. I wanted to make sure you have read WP:COI and if you do have a conflict that you follow the appropriate steps to declare this. - Galatz ^Talk 14:30, 10 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for adding the tag to your page, just a quick thing, it shouldnt have the nowiki tag. The other is if you want to do Michael's 2 businesses I would recommend adding the COI for that as well. If you unsure what I mean just let me know and I can make the change for you. - Galatz ^Talk 19:04, 11 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Your submission at Articles for creation: sandbox (August 12)[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:

This draft appears to have two subjects. There is not enough information on either subject, but an article draft should be on one subject. (That is, split this and expand both parts.)

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 User:Eli theGreat/sandbox and click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window.
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.

Your draft article, User:Eli theGreat/sandbox[edit]

Hello, Eli theGreat. It has been over six months since you last edited the Articles for Creation submission or Draft page you started, "sandbox".

In accordance with our policy that Wikipedia is not for the indefinite hosting of material deemed unsuitable for the encyclopedia mainspace, the draft has been nominated for deletion. If you plan on working on it further, or editing it to address the issues raised if it was declined, simply edit the submission and remove the {{db-afc}}, {{db-draft}}, or {{db-g13}} code.

If your submission has already been deleted by the time you get there, and you wish to retrieve it, you can request its undeletion by following the instructions at this link. An administrator will, in most cases, restore the submission so you can continue to work on it.

Thanks for your submission to Wikipedia, and happy editing. JMHamo (talk) 23:12, 13 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
