A belated welcome!
Here's wishing you a belated welcome to Wikipedia, Goweegie2. I see that you've already been around a while and wanted to thank you for your contributions. Though you seem to have been successful in finding your way around, you may benefit from following some of the links below, which help editors get the most out of Wikipedia:
 * Introduction
 * The five pillars of Wikipedia
 * Contributing to Wikipedia
 * How to edit a page
 * Help pages
 * How to write a great article
 * Editor's index to Wikipedia

Also, when you post on talk pages you should sign your name using four tildes ( ~ ); that should automatically produce your username and the date after your post.

I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! If you have any questions, feel free to leave me a message on my talk page, consult Questions, or place helpme on your talk page and ask your question there.

Again, welcome! A guy saved by Jesus (talk) 03:23, 18 March 2016 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of Pernille Vermund


The article Pernille Vermund has been proposed for deletion because it appears to have no references. Under Wikipedia policy, this biography of a living person will be deleted after seven days unless it has at least one reference to a reliable source that directly supports material in the article.

If you created the article, please don't be offended. Instead, consider improving the article. For help on inserting references, see Referencing for beginners, or ask at the help desk. Once you have provided at least one reliable source, you may remove the prod blp/dated tag. Please do not remove the tag unless the article is sourced. If you cannot provide such a source within seven days, the article may be deleted, but you can when you are ready to add one.

 * Once the article is sourced, please feel free to remove the PROD tag. If you plan on improving it later, I suggest that you move it to draftspace for improvement. Dreamy Jazz 🎷 talk to me &#124; my contributions 23:15, 10 June 2019 (UTC)

June 2019
Hello Goweegie2. The nature of your edits gives the impression you have an undisclosed financial stake in promoting a topic, such as the edit you made to Pernille Vermund, 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 egregious type of COI; the Wikimedia Foundation regards it as a "black hat" practice akin to black-hat SEO.

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, and if it does not, 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:Goweegie2. 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. Dreamy Jazz 🎷 talk to me &#124; my contributions 08:32, 11 June 2019 (UTC)


 * I was not paid to make that page, I made it entirely of my own volition. I'm a foreign politics nerd so sometimes I contribute to foreign politics discussions. I similarly created the page for Inga Sæland a little over a year and a half ago, but I admit I probably did a much better job with that page. I admit I should've made the page more substantial and added more references. Goweegie2 (talk) 16:15, 11 June 2019 (UTC)
 * , thanks for responding. This message was to ask you directly if you were being paid, because had tagged the article with Undisclosed paid and I prefer that users are asked if they are being paid if the tag is used. The tag has since been removed by another editor.
 * We can all only give so much time, so if you have the time definitely add references but don't worry if you don't have time. It may be moved to draftspace, but it will be unlikely to be deleted now that it has a source (i.e. BLPPROD does not apply). If it was taken to AfD, it would be surely a keep, as there are sources to use. I am sure that in a while another editor will do some work on it (I may lend a hand in a few weeks).
