Your submission at Articles for creation: The Power of Dark (September 22)[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 submission's references do not adequately show the subject's notability. Wikipedia requires significant coverage about the subject in reliable sources that are independent of the subject—see the general guideline on notability and the golden rule. Please improve the submission's referencing (see Wikipedia:Referencing for beginners), so that the information is verifiable, and there is clear evidence of why the subject is notable and worthy of inclusion in an encyclopedia. If additional reliable sources cannot be found for the subject, then it may not be suitable for Wikipedia at this time.

The comment the reviewer left was:

This draft lacks a proper lede sentence. The sources should provide coverage of the notability of the book, such as reviews and/or sales figures.

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:The Power of Dark 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.

The IT Girl Series[edit]

Hello, this article is empty! Can you add text and sources like books and reviews? It may be deleted if it looks like you're not going to come back to it. Blythwood (talk) 20:12, 31 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Editing Wikipedia[edit]

Hello, thanks for joining Wikipedia! I notice that all your edits are on the topics of Egmont Publishing, and I wonder if you have some connection, or "conflict of interest" with them, such as that you are an employee or contractor or being paid for editing Wikipedia to market them.

This isn't necessarily a problem, but if this is so, you must immediately file a disclosure statement explaining any conflict of interest to ensure transparency before editing Wikipedia further. Here's an example of what a disclosure looks like - but let me know if you have any kind of questions about this, privately by email is fine if you’re having problems. You should also ensure that all your edits are factual and cannot be considered in any way promotional, and are backed up by citations to reliable sources demonstrating them to be true. An automated message explaining this is added below. Hope this is OK, let me know if you have any thoughts or questions. Blythwood (talk) 23:23, 31 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, Msbedo. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places, or things you have written about on Wikipedia, you may have a conflict of interest (COI). Editors with a COI may be unduly influenced by their connection to the topic, and it is important when editing Wikipedia articles that such connections be completely transparent. See the conflict of interest guideline and FAQ for organizations for more information. In particular, we ask that you please:

avoid editing or creating articles related to you and your family, friends, school, company, club, or organization, as well as any competing companies' projects or products;
instead, you are encouraged to propose changes on the Talk pages of affected article(s) (see the {{request edit}} template);
when discussing affected articles, disclose your COI (see WP:DISCLOSE);
avoid linking to the Wikipedia article or to the website of your organization in other articles (see WP:SPAM);
exercise great caution so that you do not violate Wikipedia's content policies.

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).

Please take a few moments to read and review Wikipedia's policies regarding conflicts of interest, especially those pertaining to neutral point of view, sourcing and autobiographies. Thank you.

You have been blocked indefinitely from editing for using Wikipedia for advertising, and also because in view of your editing history it is inconceivable that you are not editing as part of paid work, but you have failed to disclose the fact, despite being informed of the requirement to do so. If you think there are good reasons why you should be unblocked, you may request an unblock by first reading the guide to appealing blocks, then adding the following text to the bottom of your talk page: {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}}.

This user's unblock request has been reviewed by an administrator, who declined the request. Other administrators may also review this block, but should not override the decision without good reason (see the blocking policy).

Msbedo (block log • active blocks • global blocks • contribs • deleted contribs • filter log • creation log • change block settings • unblock • checkuser (log))

Request reason:

I am asking you to review my Wikipedia membership. I apologise for not declaring that some of my edits would be connected to paid work. I understand how some of my contributions could be regarded as advertising, although many of my edits were intended as information pages. My interest is in children’s literature and children’s publishing and going forward I will attempt to provide edits that conform to Wikipedia’s guidelines and provide useful information. Please do be in touch if you require further information. Kind regards, Michael

Decline reason:

Given the blatantly promotional edits in the past, I do not think Wikipedia would be benefited by your contributions to our children's literature articles. Huon (talk) 23:24, 10 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
