User talk:Ruethai1

Welcome!
Hello, Digital Alchemy, and welcome to Wikipedia!&#32;Thank you for your contributions.

I noticed that one of the first articles you edited was Digital Alchemy, which 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, you must disclose your employer, client, and affiliation with respect to any contribution for which you receive, or expect to receive, compensation (see WP:PAID).

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, or ask your question on this page and then place  before the question. Again, welcome! Jschnur (talk) 06:51, 26 April 2017 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Digital Alchemy


A tag has been placed on Digital Alchemy, 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 removed 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. KH-1 (talk) 06:59, 26 April 2017 (UTC)

There have been two problems identified with this account: the account has been used for advertising or promotion, which is contrary to the purpose of Wikipedia, and your username indicates that the account represents a business or other organisation or group, which is also against policy, as an account must be for just one person. Because of those problems, the account has been blocked indefinitely from editing.

If you intend to make useful contributions about some topic other than your business or organisation, you may request an unblock. To do so, post the text at the bottom of your talk page. Replace the text "Your proposed new username" with a new username you are willing to use. See Special:CentralAuth to search for available usernames. Your new username will need to meet our username policy. Replace the text "Your reason here" with your reason to be unblocked. In this reason, you must:
 * Convince us that you understand the reason for your block and that you will not repeat the kind of edits for which you were blocked.
 * Describe in general terms the contributions that you intend to make if you are unblocked.

If you believe this block was made in error, you may appeal this block by adding the text at the bottom of your talk page, but you should read the guide to appealing blocks first. Deb (talk) 09:58, 26 April 2017 (UTC)

I thought it was the advertising content and the username that posed problems. Then, I have a few questions if you don't mind. 1. The reason why I cannot write about Digital Alchemy is because you don't think it should be on Wikipedia or because you think I should not be the one to write it? 2. If it is because it should not be on Wikipedia, can you please provide a link to the criteria so that I don't try to create a page that doesn't deserve to be on Wikipedia in the future? 3. If it is because of the fact that I am the one who did it, does that mean people are not allowed to write about what they experience first-hand or about whatever factions they belong to, regardless of how neutral the content is? Ex. Alumni cannot write about their university / Citizens cannot write about their country or hometown / Monks cannot write about their temples or religions?

And to answer your question, no, I don't plan to edit other areas at the moment. Thank you. Ruethai1 (talk) 10:48, 3 May 2017 (UTC)
 * To answer your questions:
 * Both. The company doesn't at first glance appear to meet the notability requirements, and your submission clearly indicated that you are not able to write neutrally about the subject.
 * WP:CORP is the guideline for companies and organisations.
 * To an extent, yes - WP:COI basically says you should avoid writing about yourself, your company, your family etc. It's not forbidden per se, but once you've written something like your Digital Alchemy submission, we can be pretty certain that you can't write neutrally about it.
 * If you have no other interest on Wikipedia other than writing about your company, I would recommend you consider alternative outlets instead. Yunshui 雲 水 16:01, 3 May 2017 (UTC)

Welcome to Wikipedia. Because we have a policy against usernames which give the impression that the account represents a group, organization or website, I have blocked this account; please take a moment to create a new account with a username that represents only yourself as an individual and which complies with our username policy or request a change of username. You should also read our conflict of interest guideline and be aware that promotional editing is not acceptable regardless of the username you choose. If your username does not represent a group, organization or website, you may appeal this username block by adding the text at the bottom of your talk page. You may simply create a new account, but you may prefer to change your username to one that complies with our username policy, so that your past contributions are associated with your new username. If you would prefer to change your username, you may appeal this username block by adding the text
