User talk:Pimpirazzo

Welcome!
Hello, Pimpirazzo, 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 our use and policy on paid editing.

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.

Are you in any way related to Michelle Cammarosano?
I need to ask this as you are adding links to sources written by her. If you are, you have a conflict of interest and might also have to follow our legal policy at WP:PAID. If not, I apologise, but we do get quite a bit of academic spam. Doug Weller talk 18:39, 18 July 2018 (UTC)
 * Hi Doug, and thank you for your question! Well, I'm unfortunately not related to Michelle Cammarosano, probably a nice French girl somewhere in the world, but I fear I'm very much related to Michele Cammarosano - indeed, it's just me! :D In the contributions I made today I just added bibliographic references on the topic of cuneiform writing technique (one article & one web page by myself, and one article by Jonathan Taylor), which, together with an article by A. Bramanti (already present on the "Stylus" page) may be considered the basic literature on this matter today. In case this configures a conflict of interest based on Wikipedia rules, apologies! Still it would be a pity not to have some references about that topic; in this case may I ask you to ask any Assyriologist for a feedback? I'm confident they would confirm to you that these are indeed very appropriate bibliographic references (note that an earlier version of the web article is being used at CDLI:wiki at http://cdli.ox.ac.uk/wiki/doku.php?id=cuneiform_writing_techniques, and the journal article won a prize by the International Association of Assyriology, https://iaassyriology.com/category/minutes/). I hardly need to add that the contributions I made do not provide me either money or any form of compensation or material or academic advantage, but if WP:Paid requires a disclosure to be made, glad to deliver it here! Thanks again & all the best, Pimpirazzo (talk) 20:20, 18 July 2018 (UTC)


 * Whoops, sorry Michele. That's a confusing one as I have a friend (male) called Michel. Dutch. That's fine, maybe you could also help improve some of our articles? You'd need to read WP:NOR and WP:VERIFY as what we expect is quite different from what a journal looks for, but I'm sure you'd get on well. Thanks. Doug Weller  talk 12:45, 21 July 2018 (UTC)
