Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. We appreciate your contributions; however, it appears you may have written a Wikipedia article, or a draft for a Wikipedia article, about yourself. Creating an autobiography is strongly discouraged – please see our guideline on writing autobiographies. If you create such an article, it may be deleted. If what you have done in life is genuinely notable and can be verified according to our policy for articles about living people, someone else will probably create an article about you sooner or later (see Wikipedians with articles). If you wish to add to or change an existing article about yourself, you are welcome to propose the changes by visiting the article's talk page. Please understand that this is an encyclopedia and not a personal web space or social networking site. If your article has already been deleted, please see: Why was the page I created deleted?, and if you feel the deletion was an error, please discuss this with the deleting administrator. Thank you.

Managing a conflict of interest
Hello, Asouzaesilva. 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 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 request edit template);
 * disclose your conflict of interest when discussing affected articles (see Conflict of interest);
 * avoid linking to your organization's website in other articles (see Spam);
 * 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 Paid-contribution disclosure.

Also, editing for the purpose of advertising, publicising, or promoting anyone or anything is not permitted. Thank you. S0091 (talk) 23:56, 11 September 2022 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Draft:Adriana de Souza e Silva


A tag has been placed on Draft:Adriana de Souza e Silva, requesting that it be deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under two or more of the criteria for speedy deletion, by which pages can be deleted at any time, without discussion. If the page meets any of these strictly-defined criteria, then it may soon be deleted by an administrator. The reasons it has been tagged are:
 * It seems to be unambiguous advertising which only promotes a company, product, group, service, person, or point of view and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become encyclopedic. (See section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion.) Please read the guidelines on spam and FAQ/Organizations for more information.
 * It appears to be an unambiguous copyright infringement of http://www.souzaesilva.com/. (See section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion.) For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images taken from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. You may use external websites or other printed material as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. This part is crucial: say it in your own words. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.If the external website or image belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text or image — which means allowing other people to use it for any reason — then you must verify that externally by one of the processes explained at Donating copyrighted materials. The same holds if you are not the owner but have their permission. If you are not the owner and do not have permission, see Requesting copyright permission for how you may obtain it. You might want to look at Wikipedia's copyright policy for more details, or ask a question here.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.

You may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you use Wikipedia for promotion or advertising. S0091 (talk) 00:00, 12 September 2022 (UTC)


 * Hi, I'm not using wikipedia for promotion or advertising. I have several colleagues in academia (e.g., Dietram Scheufele, Mimi Sheller) who have wikipedia pages that follow a very similar format -- in fact, I followed those models to create this page. What else could I do to make this page available at Wikipedia? Thank you for your help. Asouzaesilva (talk) 00:16, 12 September 2022 (UTC)
 * I was actually referring to my other draft page: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Draft:Adriana_de_Souza_e_Silva Asouzaesilva (talk) 00:19, 12 September 2022 (UTC)

Blocked
 You have been blocked indefinitely from editing because your account is being used only for advertising or promotion. If you think there are good reasons for being unblocked, please read the guide to appealing blocks, then add the following text below the block notice on your talk page:. – Athaenara ✉  02:15, 12 September 2022 (UTC)

If you aren't going to edit about yourself, what will you edit about? Please see other stuff exists as to why it's not always a good idea to use other articles as a model- in short, it could be that the other articles you used are also problematic. If you want to use other articles as a model, use those classified as good articles. 331dot (talk) 08:31, 14 September 2022 (UTC)


 * Some times i just do minor edits in other wikipedia pages for accuracy and content, and would like to have that right back. I have never done anything else inappropriate in wikipedia, so I believe i should be able to edit other pages too. Also, would it be possible to have my draft page back as a draft? I won't publish it, but just would like to copy the content for myself. I put a lot of work on that page, and just would like to have it for my records. Thank you! — Preceding unsigned comment added by Asouzaesilva (talk • contribs)
 * Not every statement needs to be an unblock request- additional comment should be standard, unformatted comments like this. The draft can be emailed to you; the main problem was that it was almost exclusively sourced to your own work and read like a resume or CV; any article about you should summarize what independent reliable sources choose on their own to say about you. are you okay with an unblock if this user agrees to not edit about themselves? 331dot (talk) 13:10, 14 September 2022 (UTC)
 * Usually in these situations I say OK fine, whatever you decide, but this is an exception. This user has made precisely one edit that wasn't self-promotional (changed the word "book" to "textbook"), regardless of lofty claims to the contrary.  And no, Wikipedia is not just a free editing service to be exploited at will.  – Athaenara  ✉  15:08, 14 September 2022 (UTC)
 * Further: I've expressed my view, and will not give anybody a hard time if they hold different views and/or decide to unblock this user.  – Athaenara  ✉  00:11, 15 September 2022 (UTC)


 * I must confess that after all these years I am still baffled by people who think putting up a page about themselves is a legitimate use of this encyclopedia. It's not, and they should know that.  – Athaenara  ✉  14:54, 14 September 2022 (UTC)
 * Thanks for your answer; I kinda had that thought in the back of my mind. Asouzaesilva, you mentioned that you "do minor edits", but this account only shows a single edit. Have you made edits with another account, or while logged out? 331dot (talk) 15:11, 14 September 2022 (UTC)
 * @Athanaera and @331dot: I don't really remember how many edits i did in the past. It might have been just this one recently. But I do engage with Wikipedia since its inception in the early 2000s. I teach higher ed classes on Wikipedia, about its history, and how it contributes to knowledge creation via user generated content. I would very much like to start contributing to it on a more regular basis, this is why i'm so disappointed for being blocked on my first attempt. I just read the Wikipedia article about creating autobiographies where it says it is strongly discouraged. I do agree with the premises and won't recreate the page. However, i don't think this should be reason to permanently ban me from editing anything else or attempting to create any other page. Thank you. Asouzaesilva (talk) 17:19, 14 September 2022 (UTC)
