Speedy deletion nomination of The Unfazed Life
Hello ChrisMiller203,

I wanted to let you know that I just tagged The Unfazed Life for deletion, because it seems to be promotional, rather than an encyclopedia article.

If you feel that the article shouldn't be deleted and want more time to work on it, you can contest this deletion, but please don't remove the speedy deletion tag from the top.

You can leave a note on my talk page if you have questions. Josu4u (talk) 19:07, 20 September 2015 (UTC)

Managing a conflict of interest
Hello, ChrisMiller203. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with some of the people, places or things you have written about in the article The Unfazed Life, you may have a conflict of interest. People with a conflict of interest may be unduly influenced by their connection to the topic. For information on how to contribute to Wikipedia when you have a conflict of interest, see the conflict of interest guideline and frequently asked questions for organizations. In particular, please:


 * avoid editing or creating articles related to you, your organization, its competitors, or projects and products you or they are involved with;
 * instead, propose changes on the talk pages of affected articles (see the template);
 * avoid linking to the Wikipedia article or 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, the Wikimedia Foundation's terms of use require disclosure of your employer, client, and affiliation with respect to any contribution for which you receive, or expect to receive, compensation.

Please familiarize yourself with relevant policies and guidelines, especially those pertaining to neutral point of view, sourcing, and autobiographies. Thank you. Tokyogirl79 (｡◕‿◕｡)  04:24, 21 September 2015 (UTC)
 * ChrisMiller203, yes you do have a conflict of interest. You created Unfazed Life, thus you will always have a conflict of interest with this organization. You cannot come on to Wikipedia and create an article about a company that you run and founded, then claim that you have no connection to the company. The term "conflict of interest" means that someone is editing on a topic that is directly related to them, the editor, so it stands to reason that you would directly profit from having an article since it would potentially raise visibility. The article you wrote was fairly promotional in tone, as you included phrases like " Breaking through the grounds of doubt and total struggle, Miller has found a way to see the positive in every situation, which always leads to believing in yourself and your success." This is very, very unambiguously promotional per Wikipedia's guidelines. This, paired with the very obvious and prominent fact that you own and run this organization, is what caused me to post the conflict of interest guidelines on your usertalk page. I'm going to post this on your talk page as well so I can make sure that you read this. I'm going to assume that you misread the COI guidelines, so I have to warn you: saying that you don't have a conflict of interest when you clearly do will not reflect well on you.
