Harris Institute
I have moved you article to draft space to allow you to continue to work on it. As is, the article is almost entirely sourced to primary sources, such as newsletters and press releases from the school itself. These are generally not useful in contributing to the determination of notability of a subject. It would be as if a subject said they are notable, and as proof of this they said they're notable because they said they're not able. We need multiple reliable, secondary sources that are independent of the subject to sustain notability per WP:GNG. If you have questions about this, let me know. I am also concerned that you have a conflict of interest with regards to the subject and are perhaps paid by the institute for your contributions here. As such, I am placing a notice regarding this issue below. --Hammersoft (talk) 13:41, 28 August 2021 (UTC)

Paid editing
Hello Amaandd. The nature of your edits gives the impression you have an undisclosed financial stake in promoting a topic, but you have not complied with Wikipedia's mandatory paid editing disclosure requirements. Paid advocacy is a category of conflict of interest (COI) editing that involves being compensated by a person, group, company or organization to use Wikipedia to promote their interests. Undisclosed paid advocacy is prohibited by our policies on neutral point of view and what Wikipedia is not, and is an especially serious type of COI; the Wikimedia Foundation regards it as a "black hat" practice akin to black-hat search-engine optimization.

Paid advocates are very strongly discouraged from direct article editing, and should instead propose changes on the talk page of the article in question if an article exists. If the article does not exist, paid advocates are extremely strongly discouraged from attempting to write an article at all. At best, any proposed article creation should be submitted through the articles for creation process, rather than directly.

Regardless, if you are receiving or expect to receive compensation for your edits, broadly construed, you are  required by the Wikimedia Terms of Use to disclose your employer, client and affiliation. You can post such a mandatory disclosure to your user page at User:Amaandd. The template Paid can be used for this purpose – e.g. in the form:. If I am mistaken – you are not being directly or indirectly compensated for your edits – please state that in response to this message. Otherwise, please provide the required disclosure. In either case, do not edit further until you answer this message. --Hammersoft (talk) 13:41, 28 August 2021 (UTC)

Concern regarding Draft:Harris Institute
Hello, Amaandd. This is a bot-delivered message letting you know that Draft:Harris Institute, a page you created, has not been edited in at least 5 months. Drafts that have not been edited for six months may be deleted, so if you wish to retain the page, please edit it again&#32;or request that it be moved to your userspace.

If the page has already been deleted, you can request it be undeleted so you can continue working on it.

Thank you for your submission to Wikipedia. FireflyBot (talk) 07:30, 24 March 2022 (UTC)
