Welcome!
Hello, Giuliotoscani, and welcome to Wikipedia! I hope you like the place and decide to stay.

In short, the topic of an article must be notable and have already been the subject of publication by reliable and independent sources.

Please review Your first article for an overview of the article creation process. The Article Wizard is available to help you create an article, where it will be reviewed and considered for publication. For information on how to request a new article that can be created by someone else, see Requested articles. If you are stuck, come to the Teahouse, where experienced Wikipedians can help you through the processes.

Managing a conflict of interest
Hello, Giuliotoscani. 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. SmartSE (talk) 09:02, 13 June 2023 (UTC)


 * Thanks Smartse,
 * I understand that there is a conflict if I am talking about myself, but this research has been published in a peer reviewed Journal and is perfectly relevant to the subject of tacit knowledge. I am not writing about me, but about a subject that i am very familiar with, but is peer-reviewed, no is not self-referencing.
 * How should I do to contribute better?
 * Regards Giuliotoscani (talk) 09:21, 13 June 2023 (UTC)


 * Whether it is peer-reviewed or not is irrelevant and if you wrote it yourself, you most definitely have a conflict of interest when you add it as a reference within an article. If you wish to contribute to scientific/academic articles, please start by citing review articles or books that are not authored by yourself instead. SmartSE (talk) 15:13, 13 June 2023 (UTC)

Hello, Giuliotoscani. We welcome your contributions, but it appears as if your primary purpose on Wikipedia is to add citations to research published by a small group of researchers.

Editing in this way is a violation of the policy against using Wikipedia for promotion and is a form of conflict of interest in Wikipedia – please see WP:SELFCITE and WP:MEDCOI. The editing community considers excessive self-citing to be a form of spamming on Wikipedia (WP:REFSPAM); the edits will be reviewed and the citations removed where it was not appropriate to add them.

Scientific articles should prefer secondary sources to ensure that the information added is trusted by the scientific community.

The editing community highly values expert contributors, so I do hope you will consider contributing more broadly. If you wish to contribute, please first consider citing review articles written by other researchers in your field and which are already highly cited in the literature. If you wish to cite your own research, please start a new section on the article's talk page and add Edit COI to ask a volunteer to review whether or not the citation should be added.

Citing an article that you wrote in multiple articles looks especially like spamming (WP:REFSPAM): avoid doing this. Also, external links are not permitted in the body of an article per WP:EL. Thanks, Biogeographist (talk) 22:20, 26 August 2023 (UTC)
