Welcome!
Hello, Nickpwarren, 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, if you receive, or expect to receive, compensation for any contribution you make, you must disclose your employer, client, and affiliation to comply with our terms of use and our policy on paid editing.

Here are some pages that you might find helpful:
 * The plain and simple conflict of interest guide
 * The five pillars of Wikipedia
 * Contributing to 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. If you need help, check out Questions, ask me on my talk page, or ask your question on this page and then place  before the question. Again, welcome! MoonyTheDwarf (Braden N.)

Speedy deletion nomination of Draft:Corda


A tag has been placed on Draft:Corda, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page seems to be unambiguous advertising which only promotes a company, group, product, service, person, or point of view and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become encyclopedic. Please read the guidelines on spam and FAQ/Organizations for more information.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the. VViking Talk Edits 14:45, 12 November 2019 (UTC)

November 2019
Thank you for your contributions. Please mark your edits 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. MoonyTheDwarf (Braden N.) (talk) 20:56, 12 November 2019 (UTC)
 * Creating a thread or replying to it is not minor MoonyTheDwarf (Braden N.) (talk) 20:56, 12 November 2019 (UTC)

R3 Corda and 1RR per GS/Crypto
You may wish to revert your last reversion - please see the 1 revert per 24 hours provision for crypto articles, as notified above.

Instead, this is literally under discussion on the talk page - David Gerard (talk) 15:26, 2 December 2019 (UTC)

Your submission at Articles for creation: Corda (decentralized database) (January 14)
 Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed! Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reasons left by Robert McClenon were:

The comment the reviewer left was:

Corda is a major piece of software being used by huge institutions worldwide. All facts in this article are referenced to independent sources. It is therefore absolutely notable. As a proof point, another platform in Corda's peer group has its own Wikipedia page: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hyperledger

Nickpwarren (talk) 15:02, 14 January 2020 (UTC)
 * , I am afraid what you think does not matter. These notability policies were established by the community as a whole through consensus, and in order for your article to be accepted, it has to prove notability through those policies. "but xyzledger has a wikipedia page!" is not a proof of notability. --MoonyTheDwarf (Braden N.) (talk) 15:07, 14 January 2020 (UTC)


 * Ok then can you please explain which sources are causing the issue? As they are all independent. Or at least give me one example so I can make an informed edit. Thanks.Nickpwarren (talk) 15:10, 14 January 2020 (UTC)
 * , I'm not a very good judge, so i'd recommend asking at the WP:HELPDESK. But, to me, it seems a lot like very few of these are independent, and are all press release with little independent content. But I will be honest, I did not spend nearly as much time reviewing the sources in this situation as your reviewer likely did. --MoonyTheDwarf (Braden N.) (talk) 15:24, 14 January 2020 (UTC)

Hi there, I'm HasteurBot. I just wanted to let you know that Draft:Corda (decentralized database), a page you created, has not been edited in 5 months. The Articles for Creation space is not an indefinite storage location for content that is not appropriate for articlespace.

If your submission is not edited soon, it could be nominated for deletion. If you would like to attempt to save it, you will need to improve it.

If the deletion has already occured, instructions on how you may be able to retrieve it are available at WP:REFUND/G13.
