User talk:Ionmihaialbu

Welcome!
Hello, Ionmihaialbu, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions.

I notice that one of the first articles you created was Mihai Albu, which appears to be an article about yourself. This is a common mistake made by new Wikipedians—as this is an encyclopedia, we wouldn't expect to have an article about every contributor. Your user page, however, is a great place to write about yourself, making sure to stay within user page guidelines. Just click your user name at the top of the screen when you are logged in, and edit it normally.

The page you created about yourself may well be deleted from the encyclopedia. If it is deleted and you wish to retrieve its contents, don't hesitate to ask anyone from this list and they will copy it to your user page.

Here are some pages that you might find helpful: I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Please sign your messages on talk pages using four tildes ( ~ ); this will automatically insert your username and the date. If you need help, check out Questions, or ask your question on this page and then place  before the question. Again, welcome! Drm310 (talk) 19:10, 13 July 2016 (UTC)

Hi, thanks for message. I deleted your article because
 * it did not provide independent verifiable sources to enable us to verify the facts and show that it meets the notability guidelines. It is now Wikipedia policy that biographical articles about living people must have independent verifiable references, as defined in the link, or they will be deleted. Sources that are not acceptable include those linked to the company, 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 company claims or interviewing its management.
 * you gave some urls at the end, but they were not in-line so we can't tell what fact each is supporting, and some are not acceptable as sources anyway. As it stands, nothing you say has verification.
 * it was written in a promotional tone. Articles must be neutral and encyclopaedic.
 * Examples of unsourced claims presented as fact include: best known for his signature line of high-end women's footwear... successful architect... alongside the works of other famous artists... hand-crafted avant-garde creations arose the interest of competing companies... another level with a whole new concept, a structural architecture approach, as a primary art form in itself&mdash; and so on, just sales talk
 * there shouldn't be any url links in the article, only in the "References" or "External links" sections. that's particularly the case when they are spamlinks to company or magazine websites, and the linked pages don't actually mention him
 * very important for Mihai Albu to be on Wikipedia.&mdash; I'm sure, but we are not free advertising

 * You claim not to be him. Note that creating an account in another real person's name can lead to a block, but I'll accept for now your claim that that you are working for him, presumably with his knowledge. However, you have an obvious conflict of interest when it comes to editing articles about this subject. Thank you for declaring your interest. If, after reading the information about notability linked above, you still believe that he is notable enough for a Wikipedia article (and that there is significant coverage in reliable, independent secondary sources), you could, if you wish, post a request at Requested articles for the article to be created. See also Best practices for editors with conflicts of interest.
 * Since you work for him, you 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, 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:. The template Paid can be used for this purpose – e.g. in the form:    . Please provide the required disclosure. Please do not edit further until you respond to this message.
