Page Move
Hi SerAntoniDeMiloni. You moved Michael Ward (actor, born 1995) to Michael Ward (British Actor)‎, which you should not have done as there is already a Michael Ward (actor) who is British (and a film actor). When we have BIOs whose names and professions are identical, we use the DOB as the next way to disambiguate the names (we also don't use capitals in the descriptor). See Tom Brown for examples. We are going to have to revert this move back, therefore. If you want to move a page and are unsure of the policy/guidelines around article naming, raise the idea on the Talk Page first to check with others. Thank you.

Disambiguation link notification for March 9
Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Robert Gunawardena, you added links pointing to the disambiguation pages MP and Sri Lankan ([//dispenser.info.tm/~dispenser/cgi-bin/dablinks.py/Robert_Gunawardena check to confirm] | [//dispenser.info.tm/~dispenser/cgi-bin/dab_solver.py/Robert_Gunawardena?client=notify fix with Dab solver]). Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ* Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)

Vulcain (watch company) moved to draftspace
An article you recently created, Vulcain (watch company), 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. Loksmythe (talk) 17:54, 8 April 2020 (UTC)

Hi Loksmythe. I will do so in an hour or so. I'm just adding citations now. SerAntoniDeMiloni (talk) 17:56, 8 April 2020 (UTC)

Hi again Loksmythe. I've just submitted with a plethora of citations. It would be great if you could have a look. Thanks! SerAntoniDeMiloni (talk) 18:23, 8 April 2020 (UTC)

Hi Loksmythe, I've just made a couple of edits that I hope will remove the note about possible ad-like nature (such as the 'Watch of Presidents'). I've given it a re-read, and would like to note that much of Vulcain's history is steeped in their favour with US presidents and their history of gifting the watches to presidents (alongside their invention of the alarm-watch). Are there any other alterations you would suggest? Your help is much appreciated. Thanks SerAntoniDeMiloni (talk) 19:09, 8 April 2020 (UTC)

+ I've also added some more reputable sources (such as Bloomberg and Business Insider . Here's another Bloomberg and A German National newspaper . Most of the sources talking about the history say quite similar things, I have just added more news sources so as to not rely too heavily on a single source. Thanks 😃 SerAntoniDeMiloni (talk) 19:35, 8 April 2020 (UTC)

Deprodding of Isra Hirsi
I have removed the tag from Isra Hirsi, which you proposed for deletion, because its deletion has previously been contested or viewed as controversial. Proposed deletion is not for controversial deletions. For this reason, proposed deletion is disallowed on articles that have previously been de-prodded, even by the page's creator, or which have previously been listed on Articles for deletion. If you still think the article should be deleted, please don't add the template back to the article, but feel free to list it at Articles for deletion.

File permission problem with File:LeslieGoonewardenePortrait70s.jpg
Thanks for uploading File:LeslieGoonewardenePortrait70s.jpg, which you've attributed to Mr Goonewardene. I noticed that while you provided a valid copyright licensing tag, there is no proof that the creator of the file has agreed to release it under the given license.

If you are the copyright holder for this media entirely yourself but have previously published it elsewhere (especially online), please either
 * make a note permitting reuse under the CC-BY-SA or another acceptable free license (see this list) at the site of the original publication; or
 * Send an email from an address associated with the original publication to permissions-en@wikimedia.org, stating your ownership of the material and your intention to publish it under a free license. You can find a sample permission letter here. If you take this step, add OTRS pending to the file description page to prevent premature deletion.

If you did not create it entirely yourself, please ask the person who created the file to take one of the two steps listed above, or if the owner of the file has already given their permission to you via email, please forward that email to permissions-en@wikimedia.org.

If you believe the media meets the criteria at Non-free content, use a tag such as non-free fair use or one of the other tags listed at File copyright tags, and add a rationale justifying the file's use on the article or articles where it is included. See File copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have provided evidence that their copyright owners have agreed to license their works under the tags you supplied, too. You can find a list of files you have created in [ your upload log]. Files lacking evidence of permission may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described in section F11 of the criteria for speedy deletion. You may wish to read Wikipedia's image use policy. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. — Diannaa (talk) 22:16, 13 August 2020 (UTC)


 * Hi again Diannaa. Apologies for that – the file is OTRS pending. I'll add the tag. Thanks, SerAntoniDeMiloni (talk) 22:18, 13 August 2020 (UTC)

Template:Did you know nominations/Leslie Goonewardene
SerAntoniDeMiloni, in case you hadn't seen it, the nomination is currently on hold pending image licensing improvements for the images in the article. Please see the nomination template for more information. Thanks. BlueMoonset (talk) 11:30, 29 August 2020 (UTC)
 * Thanks for that BlueMoonset. I've been speaking to the photo author who's been going through the OTRS, and it seems that he's been having some timing issues. He hasn't received a response to an email reply he sent 5 days ago, and the process seems to be going in circles. Do you have any suggestions on how to get more engagement? I'm hoping to get the DYK through before I start college next week, at which point I'll have quite a bit less time to focus on it. Thanks, SerAntoniDeMiloni (talk) 11:36, 29 August 2020 (UTC)
 * SerAntoniDeMiloni, things at OTRS can take a while; I've never quite figured out how it works or how to get more engagement than there has been already. I do, however, think that you need to post about this on the nomination page, including the timing issues (both OTRS and your impending college work). BlueMoonset (talk) 03:36, 30 August 2020 (UTC)

Replaceable fair use File:Latymer Upper School Facade.png
Thanks for uploading File:Latymer Upper School Facade.png. I noticed that this file is being used under a claim of fair use. However, I think that the way it is being used fails the first non-free content criterion. This criterion states that files used under claims of fair use may have no free equivalent; in other words, if the file could be adequately covered by a freely-licensed file or by text alone, then it may not be used on Wikipedia. If you believe this file is not replaceable, please:


 * 1) Go to the file description page and add the text  below the original replaceable fair use template, replacing   with a short explanation of why the file is not replaceable.
 * 2) On the file discussion page, write a full explanation of why you believe the file is not replaceable.

Alternatively, you can also choose to replace this non-free media item by finding freely licensed media of the same subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or similar) media under a free license, or by creating new media yourself (for example, by taking your own photograph of the subject).

If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified how these media fully satisfy our non-free content criteria. You can find a list of description pages you have edited by clicking on [ this link]. Note that even if you follow steps 1 and 2 above, non-free media which could be replaced by freely licensed alternatives will be deleted 2 days after this notification (7 days if uploaded before 13 July 2006), per the non-free content policy. If you have any questions, please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Whpq (talk) 20:19, 1 September 2020 (UTC)

Orphaned non-free image File:Latymer Upper School 1800s.png
Thanks for uploading File:Latymer Upper School 1800s.png. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

Delta Phi does *not* prefer to use St. Elmo to the greek letters. Please bring up such a significant change on the talk page. I'm reverting. (Also, the image added is larger than any other similar image for a GLO.Naraht (talk) 17:16, 27 September 2023 (UTC)
 * Thanks, ; I was just about to do the same. Mr. DeMiloni, over some years we have clarified and standardized our syntax for fraternity and sorority articles. This has been accomplished by a very active group of project editors.  Project groups, often populated by editors that are knowledgeable about a particular subject, add value both by their tacit knowledge and their passion for a subject.  Good project groups are consistent and not scattershot. Over several days you have offered edits to the Delta Phi article, only that one out of over 3,000 articles we track, all of which edits have been reverted.  May I ask your connection with that group?  I note you offer regular changes to articles relating to Sri Lanka.  Because I don't know much about Sri Lanka, except for the fact that Arthur C. Clark lived there, I would defer to those, like you, who are more knowledgeable about that nation to make all but the most routine edits, such as the correction of typos. Fair? Jax MN (talk) 18:04, 27 September 2023 (UTC)
 * Of course! Thank you for the kind input. I'd been reading several articles on the US educational system after going on a tangent on the University of Virginia, and thought I'd try cleaning up some articles. I saw the St. Anthony Hall article as a GA, and thought I'd try use that template. Of course, happy to make corrections with guidance. I'd note that the image I found seems to represent far better than the old image. SerAntoniDeMiloni (talk) 18:56, 27 September 2023 (UTC)

 * Thanks @Justiyaya. Might've relied a bit too much on those citations when researching. Will make the appropriate fixes. Many thanks, SerAntoniDeMiloni (talk) 17:22, 2 October 2023 (UTC)
 * Hey @Justiyaya. Would be great to get your thoughts now; I've had a little run through. Thanks. SerAntoniDeMiloni (talk) 13:45, 4 October 2023 (UTC)
 * Nicely done! Looking back I misidentified a few sources as being non-independent that were independent, sorry about that. Great improvements on the article and removing the ones that I haven't misidentified, thanks a lot for the fixes :D. In popular culture might work better with a sentence instead of a bullet point, but regardless nice work, happy editing!  Just ' i ' yaya  14:39, 4 October 2023 (UTC)

July 2024
 Your account has been blocked indefinitely for advertising or promotion and violating the Wikimedia Foundation's Terms of Use. This is because you have been making promotional edits to topics in which you have a financial stake, yet you have failed to adhere to the mandatory paid editing disclosure requirements. Paid advocacy is a form of conflict of interest (COI) editing which involves being compensated by a person, group, company or organization to use Wikipedia to promote their interests. Undisclosed paid advocacy is strictly prohibited. Using this site for advertising or promotion is contrary to the purpose of Wikipedia. If you think there are good reasons why you should be unblocked, please read our guide to appealing blocks to understand more about unblock requests, and then add the text  at the end of your user talk page. For that request to be considered, you must: –&#8239;Joe (talk) 15:28, 2 July 2024 (UTC)
 * Confirm that you have read and understand the Terms of Use and paid editing disclosure requirements.
 * State clearly how you are being compensated for your edits, and describe any affiliation or conflict of interest you might have with the subjects you have written about.
 * Describe how you intend to edit such topics in the future.


 * Recyclable nappies, probiotic yoghurt, a Tuscan winery, a Nigerian priest, a Chilean vegan food manufacturer – that's quite an eclectic range of interests for a teenager. I can't discuss the off-wiki evidence that led to this block here, to protect your own privacy as much as anything else, but I will say that it's very convincing. Your fastest route to an unblock is to be as forthright as possible. Paid editing is not strictly forbidden on Wikipedia, but undisclosed paid editing is, so you will remain blocked until we're convinced that you've disclosed all your clients and will abide by WP:PAID and WP:COI going forward. –&#8239;Joe (talk) 21:33, 2 July 2024 (UTC)


 * Joe, Spicy. Yes, of course, please let me explain all. I feel really terrible about having been blocked, because Wiki editing has been a huge passion of mine for so many years, since childhood. I’m mortified, and very much hope that my openness and genuine remorse will allow me to redeem myself.

The pages I’ve written reflect many of the eclectic interests I have. For instance, Speidel and Vulcain were written in 2020 when my school classes were cancelled. I’m an avid watch collector, and had bought a Vulcain Cricket from the 50s, which came on a 50s Speidel band, on eBay. I got quite interested in the history of both, so I delved into writing their pages. I had little else to do.

Other pages like ZF Sachs were written by transcribing from German language pages. Here, a relative worked for the company in the 1800s, and the company had been defunct for a decade or so I believe.

Lots of the startup company edits seem a bit more sporadic, but I did an unpaid internship at a venture capital fund called the Craftory a few years ago (where my dad works). I wrote pages around startups I met there in my spare time because I was quite interested in their work, and because writing these pages allowed me to connect to a couple of founders after I’d written their pages. I found that it allowed me a pretty unique opportunity to connect with interesting people I’d never get to connect with otherwise. The only payment I received from the Craftory after I wrote their page, and only after telling them I had written it, was a baseball cap, and nothing else. A couple of the startups, specifically Dyper and Edgard & Cooper did send me a few hundred pounds each as token appreciation, but only after meeting the founders, after writing the page. I’m just a student, and I made the mistake of accepting these thank-yous without disclosing the pages as “paid work”, because I just didn’t think of them as such because I hadn’t gone out soliciting the work commercially. That was nevertheless the wrong thing to have done, and I’m sorry for that.

The Nigerian priest is the pastor of a friend in his London ‘flock’. My friend knows about my wiki hobby, and he asked me as a favour to try build his pastor a page. I created a stub from what seemed notable in 10 mins and left it there. Most of what’s there now wasn’t my work. The winery is one that my grandparents used to own, but that I haven’t been back to since the early 2010s. New owners expanded quite a bit since, and I thought the winery was noteworthy of a page, so I wrote one. I didn’t get paid for this.

I haven’t written pages with input except for a couple of professors, who I’d reached out to in order to better understand their work, especially for rather complex things like microbiology. Lots of the microbiology profs just came out of interest after writing the page on Seed and meeting its founders (the probiotic company).

I think the work that verges closest to solicited paid work was the page for IFIT. A college friend reached out, asking if his father could ask me a couple of questions about Wikipedia. His father runs the institute, and asked me if I could help him write a page. He noted that, as a charity, they don’t have much money, but that he might be able to help me make some money from my writing if I could help out. They’d been looking into some sort of page writing services, but suggested that if I could write the page, I could be introduced to some of their partners who could pay.

The page was sufficiently notable, and the opportunity to earn some money was quite motivating. I wrote the page, and then IFIT helped me write a brochure for a wiki writing service using other pages I’d written in the past as examples. They introduced me to three of their partners in the foundation space, and I made the mistake of trying to solicit paid editing. I deeply apologise here. This was a mistake, and I now clearly see this.

I’m hugely proud of my body of work for Wiki, and I have met some fascinating people as a result of my editing. I would be absolutely crestfallen if my mistake in not managing paid work properly would preclude me from continuing to contribute to Wiki, and being part of the Wiki editing family, especially with my wide range of pages from Boris Skossyreff to Leslie Goonewardene. I have very much understood my mistake, and hope that my contrition might persuade you to give me a second chance. Yours hopefully. SerAntoniDeMiloni (talk) 07:19, 3 July 2024 (UTC)


 * Thank you for the honesty, but basically what you're saying is that almost every single article you have created over the past six years involved a COI, some of them financial COIs. And not only did you not disclose any of this or follow any of the guidelines given in WP:COI, you actively denied them when challenged. That is nothing to be proud of and not encouraging. If you want to make another unblock request then it's not up to me whether to accept it, but I would be worried that you continue to see Wikipedia as a professional networking opportunity. –&#8239;Joe (talk) 07:35, 3 July 2024 (UTC)
 * Also, I don't want to out you here (and please be careful about what you disclose yourself – connecting dots is not hard), but if I have correctly deduced from the above who your father is, then you have also made direct, undisclosed edits to articles about him, his companies, and other members of your family. Frankly, there's nothing eclectic about your editing at all: scratch the surface and it all comes back to promoting your family business. –&#8239;Joe (talk) 07:43, 3 July 2024 (UTC)
 * Please don’t be harsh. I’ve written over 100 pages on a huge range of topics, none of which involved any conflicts of interest, or payment. As per your request, I’ve diligently listed every single page where a conflict might have been deemed to be in place - it’s 6 in total. Writing about deceased relatives shouldn't be relevant I thought - most of these pages have been translated and expanded from other language Wikis, and are both notable and well cited. My defence is that I genuinely didn’t solicit writing for any fee up until the IFIT page, and the 2 modest thank-yous I received from the startups felt like pocket money rather than payment. I also always adhered to the strict editorial rules, with fairly balanced notable pages in everything I have written, and none of the pages were fluff pieces. I have learned from my mistake, and I assure you it won’t happen again. It's a learning process, I understand that, but it'd be devastating to have something that's such a large part of my life removed without having been warned before. Please give me a chance. SerAntoniDeMiloni (talk) 08:32, 3 July 2024 (UTC)
 * As a disinterested observer, I don't have any problems with SerAntoni's work. He's been diplomatic, open to criticism, and responsive. Cut him a break. Jax MN (talk) 21:40, 3 July 2024 (UTC)
 * Unfortunately the Wikimedia Terms of Use does have a problem with his work, and that is not something we can wave away. –&#8239;Joe (talk) 08:35, 4 July 2024 (UTC)
 * I'm sorry but you have not been adhering to the rules. You're mistaken if you think that writing about your relatives, people and organisations you work with, or want to work with, is not a conflict of interest. You're mistaken if you think transactions involving "a few hundred pounds" ("pocket money"?) don't count as paid editing. You should not have touched any of these pages. If you insisted on doing so, you should have followed the guidelines at WP:COIEDIT, including prior disclosure and refraining from direct edits. I'm sorry if you think I'm being harsh, but I'm telling you this because you seem to want to return to editing and you will need to understand these rules and commit to following them if that is to happen. –&#8239;Joe (talk) 08:33, 4 July 2024 (UTC)
 * I have fully understood. I was young when I started, I hadn’t read the rules, and made an error.
 * I’ve now understood very clearly what constitutes paid editing, and that I should stay far clear from accepting any thanks or rewards, and that I will never again even go close to anything that could be deemed a COI, for which the definition I have now read and clearly understood. It’s black and white for me now, and that’s how I’ll keep it. SerAntoniDeMiloni (talk) 08:59, 4 July 2024 (UTC)
 * Hi @Joe Roe. I’ve 100% understood the errors I made, and I now fully understand how I need to navigate these. I will be glad to add any and all required disclosures to the handful of pages relevant, now that I am aware how to manage this. Given my passion for wikipedia editing, and my large body of faultless work compared to the few mistakes I made, I would be greatly appreciative if I could be given the opportunity to make amends here? Is there a path forward? Cheers. SerAntoniDeMiloni (talk) 16:09, 7 July 2024 (UTC)
 * You need to make a new unblock request, as you did above. For fairness, it's another admin that decides, not me – I'll defer to whatever they say. –&#8239;Joe (talk) 07:39, 8 July 2024 (UTC)


 * @NinjaRobotPirate Not sure if my message came off entirely right. My intention was to emphasise that I have understood where I have gone wrong here. That I absolutely do understand that paid editing is detrimental to a what Wikipedia tries to be. That I understand the mistake I’ve made with going down that path, and that I will not stray down that path again. That I’d like to add conflict notices to the pages that are contentious, because this editing is now black and white to me.


 * I’ve volunteered thousands of hours in the past, and written a very broad range of pages. I’ve got quite a lot of them on my user page – a testament to the pride I have in this work. I’m trying to counter this block not with malicious intentions, but because I still feel I have much more to add. Please give me another chance. I've learned from my mistakes.SerAntoniDeMiloni (talk) 08:06, 16 July 2024 (UTC)


 * @NinjaRobotPirate – just wanted to see if you've seen my message. Thanks. SerAntoniDeMiloni (talk) 14:13, 19 July 2024 (UTC)
