Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. Your user page may not meet Wikipedia's user page guidelines. It is intended for basic information about yourself, your interests and goals as they relate to editing Wikipedia, as well as disclosures of conflicts of interest and paid editing. Although a lot of freedom is allowed in personalizing your user page, it is not: The user page guidelines have additional information on what is and what is not considered acceptable content. Please use your user sandbox or the draft article space to practice editing or to create new articles. Thank you.  Acroterion   (talk)   01:21, 18 February 2024 (UTC)
 * an encyclopedia article (and should not be styled to look like one)
 * a workspace for a draft article
 * a personal website, blog, or social media site
 * a space for self-promotion or other advertising
 * a CV, resumé or lengthy autobiography


 * Hi Acroterion
 * I do not see a violation
 * I put two paragraphs about my professional life.  Dawndarasms (talk) 01:50, 18 February 2024 (UTC)

Managing a conflict of interest
Hello, Dawndarasms. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about on the page Draft:Dawn M Daras, 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 edit COI template);
 * disclose your conflict of interest when discussing affected articles (see );
 * avoid linking to your organization's website in other articles (see );
 * 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. TLA (talk) 01:41, 18 February 2024 (UTC)


 * Hi Tia,
 * I receive no compensation for writing the article.
 * I'm writing about a contribution I made in 2013 that has to do with text analytics. I wrote about it in 2015 and the article is published.  It is more widely utilized now in machine learning.
 * It is not a financial conflict of interest. I am a sole proprietor. This is not an invention I am utilizing currently.
 * Sincerely,
 * Dawn Daras Dawndarasms (talk) 01:46, 18 February 2024 (UTC)
 * It looks to me like you wrote up a resume that in no way looks like a Wikipedia article and contains no secondary sources. The whole financial thing is rather meaningless: did you not write an autobiography? So naturally you have a conflict of interest. Drmies (talk) 01:49, 18 February 2024 (UTC)
 * Hello
 * This sounds strangely unprofessional in your response.
 * No, I have written about a substantial contribution to a field which has to do with geolocation enablement through computational linguistics. I gave verifying links
 * I also wrote about another substantial contribution
 * My resume' would be much longer
 * I am a computer scientist and computational linguist Dawndarasms (talk) 01:53, 18 February 2024 (UTC)
 * It looks to me that you've just noted that you have a conflict of interest. Please read WP:Conflict_of_interest to make sure you're disclosing that clearly. Please also refer to the reason your submission was declined – the sources need to be WP:RELIABLE and WP:INDEPENDENT - not Linkedin-ish. TLA  (talk) 01:57, 18 February 2024 (UTC)
 * I gave an external link which is on Medium which is the publication of the invention for an IBM business partner.
 * It also has citations and is professional
 * Additionally on LinkedIn and on my website are professionals who utilized and spoke regarding the use of the invention
 * Apparently you did not read either of the sources - LinkedIN is a resource for persons who work in professional fields
 * I believe that this is not a conflict of interest Dawndarasms (talk) 02:22, 18 February 2024 (UTC)
 * If you write about yourself you have a conflict of interest. It's the very definition of a conflict of interest. Medium is not a reliable source to begin with, and you wrote that article yourself. LinkedIn is maybe a resource, but it's also user-submitted. You resubmitted the draft, under a new name--that's not going to change the outcome. Drmies (talk) 02:26, 18 February 2024 (UTC)


 * Please read WP:AUTOBIO for an extensive discussion on why autobiographies are strongly discouraged on Wikipedia. As Jimmy Wales has noted, it is a social faux pas to write about yourself here, at minimum.  Acroterion   (talk)   02:32, 18 February 2024 (UTC)

 * I am considered an academic
 * I cited in references an article which discusses the application of the invention
 * I cited LInkedIn and my website because there is where my references in business also have given praise to the inventions I discuss
 * I also cite several academic articles I have published, as an academic Dawndarasms (talk) 01:55, 18 February 2024 (UTC)
 * You need secondary sources. Maybe see Notability (academics). Drmies (talk) 02:00, 18 February 2024 (UTC)

Contested deletion
This page should not be speedily deleted because... (your reason here) --216.21.162.61 (talk) 03:00, 18 February 2024 (UTC)


 * Considering this user has edited with a conflict of interest, has had their user page deleted prior (presumably also for the same speedy deletion criteria), and is written in the third person attempting to mimic the style of articles, I don't see how this is "just biographical information". You can easily say the same thing in the first person without the puffery. It's a user page, not an article. Schrödinger's jellyfish &#9993; 04:08, 18 February 2024 (UTC)
 * Please also see the prior notice at User talk:Dawndarasms. Schrödinger's jellyfish &#9993; 04:09, 18 February 2024 (UTC)
 * Also - if you are editing while logged out to contest the speedy deletion of your page, I highly suggest against doing so. Schrödinger's jellyfish &#9993; 04:14, 18 February 2024 (UTC)

It's just biographical information about the user It's not advertising or anything against Wikipedia policy

COI
You have an obvious conflict of interest, please don't write about yourself, your friends or relatives and read the guidance below:


 * When you write about a person, you must provide independent verifiable sources to enable us to verify the facts and show that they meet the notability guidelines. Sources that are not acceptable include those linked to the person or an associated organisation, press releases, YouTube, IMDB, social media and other sites that can be self-edited, blogs, websites of unknown or non-reliable provenance, and sites that are just reporting what the person claims or interviewing them. Note that references should be in-line so we can tell what fact each is supporting, and should not be bare urls.
 * You must write in a non-promotional tone. Articles must be neutral and encyclopaedic, with verifiable facts, not opinions or reviews.
 * There shouldn't be any url links in the article, only in the "References" or "External links" sections.
 * You must not copy text from elsewhere. Copyrighted text is not allowed in Wikipedia, as outlined in this policy. That applies even to pages created by you or your organisation, unless they state clearly and explicitly that the text is public domain. We require that text posted here can be used, modified and distributed for any purpose, including commercial; text is considered to be copyright unless explicitly stated otherwise. There are ways to donate copyrighted text to Wikipedia, as described here; please note that simply asserting on the talk page that you are the owner of the copyright, or you have permission to use the text, isn't sufficient.

Before attempting to write an article again, please make sure that the topic meets the notability criteria linked above, and check that you can find independent third party sources. Also read Your first article. If you are writing about yourself, or someone you know as a friend, colleague, client, employer or relative, you have a conflict of interest, and you must disclose the nature of that COI.
