Links to draft articles
Please do not introduce links in actual articles to draft articles, as you did to List of unmanned aerial vehicles. Since a draft is not yet ready for the main article space, it is not in shape for ordinary readers, and links from articles should not go to a draft. Such links are contrary to the Manual of Style. Thank you. - Arjayay (talk) 11:09, 21 November 2020 (UTC)

Hello CaptainShrimpy. The nature of your edits, such as the one you made to Inspirar Health Tech, 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:CaptainShrimpy. 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. —  Insertcleverphrasehere(or here) (or here) (or here)  08:53, 11 January 2022 (UTC)

Dear mister Insertcleverphrasehere(or here) (or here) (or here) '

I do not receive any money for this work but decided to help my friend tell the world about this company that is saving lives during a pandemic. I am not pursuing financial goals. On the contrary, I was surprised by your aggressive and active behavior here.

This article does not contain anything that could be of financial benefit or bad intentions. And only for the purpose of showing on Wikipedia about the existence of such a company.

Yes, perhaps the article is far from perfect. And everyone can make edits and correct if there are any inaccuracies or incorrect points in it, but obviously, it should not be deleted just because you so wanted.

Yes, I added links after your notification to prove that this company exists. Because your comment was not right.

"No indication of notability. Only links are to the company itself, and I was unable to find anything better. The only link I could even find that mentions it is: https://br.sputniknews.com/20200828/exercito-2020-brasil-apresenta-a-russia-solucoes-em-biosseguranca-para-combater-covid-19-16004024.html (Though I can't read it because google translates wigs out because of their cookie message that constantly refreshes the page)".

This is not right, and I have proved in the article that it has an indication of notability by adding 7 links about it in different media.

And you seem to be very prejudiced and biased, and use your power, earned here by volunteering, in order to spread strange hidden aggression.

I am a new person here, and I also want to contribute by contributing information that does not yet exist here and which I own. Also, I apologize in advance for my language.

I have corrected some of the points that you noticed and am ready to edit this article until it fits perfectly in all the parameters of Wikipedia. Therefore, I ask you not to nominate this article for deletion. — Preceding unsigned comment added by CaptainShrimpy (talk • contribs) 09:41, 11 January 2022 (UTC)

Hello and welcome to Wikipedia. When you add content to talk pages and Wikipedia pages that have open discussion (but never when editing articles), please be sure to sign your posts. There are two ways to do this. Either: This will automatically insert a signature with your username or IP address and the time you posted the comment. This information is necessary to allow other editors to easily see who wrote what and when.
 * 1) Add four tildes  ( &#126;&#126;&#126;&#126; ) at the end of your comment, or
 * 2) With the cursor positioned at the end of your comment, click on the signature button OOjs UI icon signature-ltr.svg located above the edit window.

 * Hi Shrimpy, Apologies if I rubbed you the wrong way. editing with a conflict of interest is strongly discouraged, primarily because it can result in the exact situation that has occurred here. I do apologise for assuming that you were a paid editor (from experience, the vast majority of new editors that write articles on companies are). The article in question is written in a (perhaps unintentionally) promotional lean, which led to my concerns and issuing the above notice. Editing articles (and especially writing new ones) about which you have a conflict of interest is a delicate art that is best avoided when new to the Wiki, and altogether if it can be. I applaud your efforts to find more sources for the article after it was listed for deletion, and I agree with the assessment by Djm-leighpark that the company may be notable (though at this stage, the article in it's current state won't be able to survive AfD).
 * As you can see from the fourth bullet point of WP:COIEDIT, if you choose to continue in your desire to realise this article, you are required to use the process at Articles for Creation (AfC), where you can submit a draft for approval, which will then be considered by experienced editors. A bit of a word to the wise though: keep to the best quality sources, keep the article short (2-3 paragraphs plus an infobox is probably all we can justify here with the sources available), and keep to the facts as presented by the news sources that you have found (no lengthy list of specifications that are only available from primary sources, these sorts of things come across as very promotional and unencyclopedic). AfC wait times can be very long (many months) however, so be prepared to wait. —  Insertcleverphrasehere(or here) (or here) (or here)  21:14, 19 January 2022 (UTC)
