User talk:Marishka1404

April 2016
Hello, I'm Dcirovic. I wanted to let you know that I reverted one of your recent contributions —the one you made with this edit to Averil Leimon— because it didn’t appear constructive to me. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks. Dcirovic (talk) 15:20, 25 April 2016 (UTC)

Welcome!
Hello, Marishka1404, and welcome to Wikipedia!&#32;Thank you for your contributions.

I noticed that one of the first articles you edited was Averil Leimon, which appears to be dealing with a topic with which you may have a conflict of interest. In other words, you may find it difficult to write about that topic in a neutral and objective way, because you are, work for, or represent, the subject of that article.&#32;Your recent contributions may have already been undone for this very reason.

To reduce the chances of your contributions being undone, you might like to draft your revised article before submission, and then ask me or another editor to proofread it. See our help page on userspace drafts for more details. If the page you created has already been deleted from Wikipedia, but you want to save the content from it to use for that draft, don't hesitate to ask anyone from this list and they will copy it to your user page.

One rule we do have in connection with conflicts of interest is that accounts used by more than one person will unfortunately be blocked from editing. Wikipedia generally does not allow editors to have usernames which imply that the account belongs to a company or corporation. If you have a username like this, you should request a change of username or create a new account. (A name that identifies the user as an individual within a given organization may be OK.)

In addition, you must disclose your employer, client, and affiliation with respect to any contribution for which you receive, or expect to receive, compensation (see WP:PAID).

Here are some pages that you might find helpful:

 * How to edit a page and How to develop articles
 * How to create your first article (using the Article Wizard if you wish)

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! Dismas |(talk) 17:14, 25 April 2016 (UTC)

Your edit to User talk:81.147.141.233
I'm not sure why you left a message at User talk:81.147.141.233 but you did. And it read:
 * Hello,


 * I am the Marketing Assistant here in White Water Group and work closely with Averil Leimon who instructed me to modify this wikipedia page with the correct and updated information ! I have spent a great amount of time editing it and these changes have been deleted at several occasions - this is really inconvenient and does not allow me to do my job properly. Could you please revert to the edited version as it included a great amount of relevant external links.


 * On another note, I want to change Averil Leimon profile picture (as instructed) but find it hard to do so. Could you please help me on this.


 * Thanks Marisca Houessinon

I'm not sure if you were trying to leave that message for me or someone else but I thought I'd reply to you anyway to maybe help explain a few things about Wikipedia.

First, because you work with Leimon, you have a conflict of interest (see WP:COI) which you should declare on your user page here and on the talk page of the Leimon article which you can find here. You can find instructions for doing that at WP:DISCLOSE.

Second, Leimon and White Water Group do not have any say in what is in the Leimon article. They do not own the content. See WP:OWN. Many people and many companies have articles written about them on Wikipedia and they also do not own the content or direct what is, or isn't, said in those articles. So, because they do not have control over what appears in the articles, your "job" should not be updating the article here. It's out of your complete control. You can make suggestions on the talk page (Talk:Averil Leimon) but those suggestions should include links to verifiable sources for the information. We cannot use you, Leimon, or WWG as a reference for the info that you might suggest. (See WP:OR and WP:RS)

As for the image, if you'd like to change it then a new image can be uploaded. But that image must be freely licensed. Meaning anyone can use it for any purpose. Most notable people do not want to release photos under such a license due to the fact that someone else can use the image for their own purposes whether they be commercial or not. If you do end up uploading an image though, I would ask that you upload it to Wikimedia Commons since the image could then be used at any version of Wikipedia, e.g. the German Wikipedia, Spanish, etc.

I suggest reading over some of the links that I placed in the welcome message above so that you can be more familiar with Wikipedia's guidelines and policies.

I hope this has helped your understanding of Wikipedia, Dismas |(talk) 14:24, 26 April 2016 (UTC)
