Tips 
 * Don't be afraid to edit! Just find something that can be improved and make it better. Other editors will help fix any mistakes you make.
 * It's normal to feel a little overwhelmed, but don't worry if you don't understand everything at first—it's fine to edit using common sense.
 * If an edit you make is reverted, you can discuss the issue at the article's talk page. Be civil, and don't restore the edit unless there is consensus.
 * Always use edit summaries to explain your changes.
 * When adding new content to an article, always include a citation to a reliable source.
 * If you wish to edit about a subject with which you are affiliated, read our conflict of interest guide and disclose your connection.
 * Have fun! Your presence in the Wikipedia community is welcome.

Happy editing! Cheers, DDMS123 (talk) 03:33, 28 February 2023 (UTC)

Welcome!
Hello, Pretzel00, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Unfortunately, your edit to Australian College of Nursing does not conform to Wikipedia's Neutral Point of View policy (NPOV). Wikipedia articles should refer only to facts and interpretations that have been stated in print or on reputable websites or other forms of media.

There's a page about the NPOV policy that has tips on how to effectively write about disparate points of view without compromising the NPOV status of the article as a whole. If you are stuck, and looking for help, please come to the Questions page, where experienced Wikipedians can answer any queries you have! Or, to ask for help on your talk page, and a volunteer should respond shortly. Below are a few other good links for newcomers:

I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Please sign your name on talk pages using four tildes ( ~ ); this will automatically produce your name and the date.

 * Hi Taavi,
 * Thanks for your message and apologies for misunderstanding the policy. I am new to Wikipedia and this is my first time contributing. I am an employee of the Australian College of Nursing and am confident that the information I provided is factual. I included links and references throughout the article to back this up. I spent a considerable amount of time creating the content and am devastated to see it has all disappeared. I would really appreciate if you could help me resolve this. Could you let me know specifically which parts of the content need to be revised or removed?
 * Thank you so much for your help! Pretzel00 (talk) 21:39, 5 March 2023 (UTC)

I am very surprised
Someone has not taken you through the steps to understand WP:RS, WP:COI, and in general understanding what WP:SPA might mean. To add vast amounts of text and referencing back to your own website is not what WP:ABOUT. It is very odd you havent either been blocked or hammered with a range of unfriendly messages about updating - a common malaise of employees of instituions who have been told to fix up the wikipedia article...

So you are in a double jeopardy - most of what you have added is not WP:RS - and no one has taken you through the issues. I strongly suggest that you ask for help and or advice - or even better - try to find reliable third party sources for the information... JarrahTree 01:50, 15 March 2023 (UTC)
