Welcome!
Hello, Goldenpen80, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Unfortunately, your edit to United Nations Convention against Torture does not conform to Wikipedia's Neutral Point of View policy (NPOV). Wikipedia articles should refer only to facts and interpretations that have been stated in print or on reputable websites or other forms of media.

There's a page about the NPOV policy that has tips on how to effectively write about disparate points of view without compromising the NPOV status of the article as a whole. If you are stuck, and looking for help, please come to the Questions page, where experienced Wikipedians can answer any queries you have! Or, to ask for help on your talk page, and a volunteer should respond shortly. Below are a few other good links for newcomers: I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Please sign your name on talk pages using four tildes ( ~ ); this will automatically produce your name and the date. If you have any questions, check out Questions or ask me on my talk page. Again, welcome! &thinsp;&mdash; Mr. Guye (talk) (contribs)&thinsp; 17:38, 13 April 2020 (UTC)

Thank you for your contributions. Please mark your edits, such as your recent edits to United Nations Convention against Torture, as "minor" only if they are minor edits. In accordance with Help:Minor edit, a minor edit is one that the editor believes requires no review and could never be the subject of a dispute. Minor edits consist of things such as typographical corrections, formatting changes or rearrangement of text without modification of content. Additionally, the reversion of clear-cut vandalism and test edits may be labeled "minor". Thank you. &thinsp;&mdash; Mr. Guye (talk) (contribs)&thinsp; 18:00, 13 April 2020 (UTC)

Hello, I'm Mr. Guye. I wanted to let you know that I removed one or more external links you added to the main body of United Nations Convention against Torture. Generally, any relevant external links should be listed in an "External links" section at the end of the article and meet the external links guidelines. Links within the body of an article should be internal Wikilinks. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. &thinsp;&mdash; Mr. Guye (talk) (contribs)&thinsp; 18:01, 13 April 2020 (UTC)

Managing a conflict of interest
Hello, Goldenpen80. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about in the page United Nations Convention against Torture, 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 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 WP: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. &thinsp;&mdash; Mr. Guye (talk) (contribs)&thinsp; 18:02, 13 April 2020 (UTC)

Help me!
Please help me with... Hello: I hope you are well. I have a question about how best to add information the United Nations Convention against Torture page about a related initiative called Convention against Torture Initiative? They are separate but working toward similar and related outcomes. I tried but I am told my edits were not in line with wiki policy. How can I make the addition and remain in compliance?

Also, how can I have a separate Wiki page created for the Convention against Torture Initiative that is in compliance with Wiki's policies? Thank you for your helpGoldenpen80 (talk) 23:47, 14 April 2020 (UTC) Goldenpen80 (talk) 23:47, 14 April 2020 (UTC)
 * Yes, I see that you added and then later removed, a large chunk of documentation about CTI that, on its face, looks to have been copied from somewhere else. The other editors were right to call you on that.
 * Creating a whole new article is, on Wikipedia, one of the hardest things you could choose to do as a new editor. There is guidance at your first article, but to make the story short, you need to find independent press coverage about the CTI that establishes it as a notable subject suitable for a Wikipedia article. Summarize what those articles say, in your own words, and cite them properly. A really short addition about the CTI, properly cited and in context, might possibly be an acceptable addition to the article you first tried to edit.
