 * Hi Theroadislong,
 * I am confused about the denial of the submission since I referenced the news article and the Ohio-6 special elections wiki page specifically references him. What further information would you like me to submit to get this article approved?

 * You need to show how they pass the criteria at WP:GNG.Being a candidate doesn't make them notable. Theroadislong (talk) 21:21, 25 February 2024 (UTC)
 * Understood, thank you! OhioBlue (talk) 21:25, 25 February 2024 (UTC)

Managing a conflict of interest
Hello, OhioBlue. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about on Wikipedia, 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 article subjects for more information. We ask that you:


 * avoid editing or creating articles about yourself, your family, friends, colleagues, company, organization, clients, or competitors;
 * propose changes on the talk pages of affected articles (you can use the edit COI template);
 * disclose your conflict of interest when discussing affected articles (see );
 * avoid linking to your organization's website in other articles (see );
 * 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. Theroadislong (talk) 21:21, 25 February 2024 (UTC)
