User talk:Nbgdrafting&design

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

I noticed that one of the first articles you edited 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:

 * The five pillars of Wikipedia

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

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.

Help me!
Please help me with...If I have written articles and published them on my own website can I copy and paste them into Article wizard as new articles? And what is the best way to reference my articles that have been published in other media?

 * Okay, there are a few things here to discuss, I'll try to get them all while still answering your questions. To directly answer your first question in one word: no. If you have already published something, the copyright belongs to you and as such Wikipedia cannot have that text. There are ways to get around that, either by leaving a copyleft notice or by specifically donating the content to Wikipedia (see WP:DONATETEXT). The second issue with just copy/pasting text is that it still needs to conform to Wikipedia's guidelines and standards. If it is overly promotional or there are not enough references, your draft will be declined. In other words, you need make sure it follows the Golden Rule.
 * As to your second question, if you want to reference your own work (or any body of work), you could either use the refToolbar (see WP:REFB section 3.1) or use one of the various citation templates such as cite web. My personal preference is the refToolbar, which is a popup menu that lets you fill in all of the required parameters.
 * Now, a few things that you have not asked about, but I feel obligated to mention. First is your username: per CORPNAME your username is not acceptable, so you will have to request a name change at WP:CHUS. Second is your desire to use your own references. Original research is not strongly discouraged, and primary sources fall into that category. These types of sources are generally only acceptable for uncontroversial facts. Sources that are not directly connected to the subject of the article are best. Third, I took a look at your userpage, and it will most likely be deleted as a misuse of Wikipedia as a web host. Your userpage should be about you and your interests, not be a platform to promote or advertise someone. Either trim it down or move it to the Draft space if you plan on submitting that for review. If you want more help, stop by the Teahouse, Wikipedia's live help channel, or the help desk to ask someone for assistance. To reply directly to me, start your message with .

There have been two problems with this account: the account has been used for advertising or promotion, which is contrary to the purpose of Wikipedia, and your username indicates that the account represents a business or other organisation or group, which is also against policy, as an account must be for just one person. Because of those problems, the account has been blocked indefinitely from editing.

If you intend to make useful contributions about some topic other than your business or organisation, you may request an unblock. To do so, post the text at the bottom of your talk page. Replace the text "Your proposed new username" with a new username you are willing to use. See Special:CentralAuth to search for available usernames. Your new username will need to meet our username policy. Replace the text "Your reason here" with your reason to be unblocked. In this reason, you must:
 * Convince us that you understand the reason for your block and that you will not repeat the kind of edits for which you were blocked.
 * Describe in general terms the contributions that you intend to make if you are unblocked.

If you believe this block was made in error, you may appeal this block by adding the text at the bottom of your talk page, but you should read the guide to appealing blocks first. MER-C 11:55, 4 August 2016 (UTC)
