I moved your "user" page
I moved your user page, User:, to User:Notablepeopleandplaces/sandbox. Your user page is meant to tell other editors about your activities on Wikipedia. You can leave it blank if you choose. It is not for draft articles. Draft articles should be created as "user sub-pages" or as pages whose name starts with Draft:. For more information on user pages and user sub-pages, read User pages. davidwr/ (talk)/(contribs)  21:33, 1 December 2020 (UTC)
 * Please do not edit this sandbox until after the "history split" in the discussion below is complete. Once it is complete, you can continue drafting the "split off" page at its new home, Draft:Kobenz (musician).  Once the page has been "split off," you should either blank the sandbox request that it be deleted by putting  on it.  davidwr/  (talk)/(contribs)  21:56, 1 December 2020 (UTC)
 * The edits made to Kobenz have been deleted. If you wish to continue drafting this topic, continue with User:Notablepeopleandplaces/sandbox.  davidwr/  (talk)/(contribs)  23:12, 1 December 2020 (UTC)

Kobenz history split
This is to both and  and will be re-posted to both of your user talk pages. Courtesy pings to and  as your edits are affected as well.

This page Kobenz is for the municipality in Austria.

I have requested that the "edit history" of the page be split and that the edits that deal with the musician be moved to a new page, Draft:Kobenz (musician). PLEASE DO NOT EDIT EITHER PAGE UNTIL THE HISTORY-SPLIT IS COMPLETE. You will know it is complete because the page history of the draft will contain 25-30 edits instead of none. davidwr/ (talk)/(contribs)  21:52, 1 December 2020 (UTC)
 * I see no reason to oppose this, and there is rationale, since one's a municipality and one's a musician, so totally support this. Slykos (talk • contribs • rights) 21:55, 1 December 2020 (UTC)
 * The edits made to Kobenz have been deleted and will not be restored. See above. davidwr/  (talk)/(contribs)  23:13, 1 December 2020 (UTC)

Managing a conflict of interest
Hello, Notablepeopleandplaces. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about in the page User:Notablepeopleandplaces/sandbox, you may have a conflict of interest (COI). Editors with a conflict of interest may be unduly influenced by their connection to the topic. See the conflict of interest guideline and FAQ for organizations for more information. We ask that you:


 * avoid editing or creating articles about yourself, your family, friends, colleagues, company, organization or competitors;
 * propose changes on the talk pages of affected articles (you can use the request edit template);
 * disclose your conflict of interest when discussing affected articles (see Conflict of interest);
 * avoid linking to your organization's website in other articles (see WP:Spam);
 * do your best to comply with Wikipedia's content policies.

In addition, you are required by the Wikimedia Foundation's terms of use to disclose your employer, client, and affiliation with respect to any contribution which forms all or part of work for which you receive, or expect to receive, compensation. See Paid-contribution disclosure.

Also, editing for the purpose of advertising, publicising, or promoting anyone or anything is not permitted. Thank you. — Jeff G. ツ 03:28, 2 December 2020 (UTC)

I do not have any relationship to the client Notablepeopleandplaces (talk) 12:02, 2 December 2020 (UTC)
 * "The client"? Your client?  Someone else's client?  davidwr/  (talk)/(contribs)  17:24, 2 December 2020 (UTC)

My English is not great. I meant “individual” Notablepeopleandplaces (talk) 17:55, 2 December 2020 (UTC)

Kobenz (musician) moved to draftspace
An article you recently created, Kobenz (musician), does not have enough sources and citations as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. (?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of " " before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page. Praxidicae (talk) 13:07, 8 December 2020 (UTC)

I’ve re-read the guidelines, and this person meets the requirements of being notable. Upon looking over all sources that have been added, it appears that these appear independent, and confirmed by multiple outlets. The general topics are verified on multiple sources and the artist is verified as an artist on Google, Spotify, and a few other sites that were listed. I’m looking to start doing more content writing on alternative/dark artists of all kind, and this is my first article. I would appreciate all suggestions, for reliable outlets to gather information, and advice of at what point someone becomes notable as the requirements are highly subjective. I’ve spent a lot of time reading the guidelines, before moving this article to main space. I was also considering adding search ability as a source. Wouldn’t a figure that shares a name with a city or territory and comes up beforehand be considered notable? How would one cite that? People should know the difference between the two as the fact that they are colliding would be considered notable and cause a need for disambiguation.

 * For the sake of this message, I am going to assume you are right, and that you have no connection to the editors which you have been connected to.
 * I'm not a checkuser, I'm not an administrator, but common sense says that in rare cases, the technical evidence is deceiving.  It's even rarer that the technical evidence and behavioral evidence are both deceiving at the same time.  But in the nearly 20-year history of Wikipedia, I'm sure it's happened more than once.
 * My assumption - again, I don't have any "inside information" to support this - is that this is so rare that, barring compelling evidence of a mistake, it's an accepted "cost." That is, Wikipedia accepts the cost of losing a good editor due to him being "indistinguishable from" an account of a known-bad-actor in exchange for not having many "bad actors" slip through.
 * Common sense also says Wikipedia is not alone in this "we occasionally declare persons persona non grata by mistake because we can't tell them from someone we know to be a problem." It's a fact of life we all have to live with. I've been on the wrong end of being judged incorrectly without any reasonable method to appeal since the person doing the judging was convinced they were right and "that was the end of the discussion."  It's frustrating.  But it's life.  I learned to live with it.
 * My best guess is that the only way back to Wikipedia will be if neither you nor the person behind the other account attempts to edit Wikipedia for 6 months, in which case you might be able to come back under WP:Standard offer. However, to avoid any possible confusion, it would be best if you stayed away from any topics remotely related to any topic you have edited about before being blocked AND avoid editing in any topics remotely related to any topic the other accounts have edited about.  See this and its archives for a list of accounts.  Click on the "contribs" and "logs" entries for each accounts to see what topics to avoid.  If new names are added to that page, just assume the 6-month clock has started over.  If the person behind the other accounts is persistent, it may mean you can never come back.  Frustrating, yes.  Unfair, yes.  Any way around it that won't cause more grief for you in the end?  Not that I can think of.
 * Again, for the sake of this message I am assuming that you are being on the level. If I'm wrong, if you are deceiving me and everyone else, then the above message does not apply to you.  davidwr/  (talk)/(contribs) 🎄  16:34, 19 December 2020 (UTC)


 * please stop involving yourself in unblock discussions. Your involvement here is unhelpful and could even be incorrectly interpretated as providing unblock conditions when you're clearly not in any position to unblock. Nick (talk) 19:57, 19 December 2020 (UTC)

@Davidwr: I am not whoever I am being accused of. I have no affiliation to anyone but myself. I think it’s very unfortunate and disheartening that I’ve received so much grief for trying to write my first article on someone less then an A list celebrity. I thought maybe I could contribute by finding interesting people with some potential and notability to write about. I spent a lot of time working on this article. My next article was going to be about a Russian alternative social media influencer. The first in her country. However, I’ll accept the ban, and I’ll move on. I just figured this could be a neat hobby as I have a passion for content writing. I really hope I didn’t hinder the persons I was writing about. I saw that the article began to get interest from others that’s what kept me going with it. Best of luck to you all! Notablepeopleandplaces (talk) 20:35, 19 December 2020 (UTC)
