August 2022
Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. We appreciate your contributions; however, it appears you may have written a Wikipedia article, or a draft for a Wikipedia article, about yourself. Creating an autobiography is strongly discouraged – please see our guideline on writing autobiographies. If you create such an article, it may be deleted. If what you have done in life is genuinely notable and can be verified according to our policy for articles about living people, someone else will probably create an article about you sooner or later (see Wikipedians with articles). If you wish to add to or change an existing article about yourself, you are welcome to propose the changes by visiting the article's talk page. Please understand that this is an encyclopedia and not a personal web space or social networking site. If your article has already been deleted, please see: Why was the page I created deleted?, and if you feel the deletion was an error, please discuss this with the deleting administrator. Thank you.

 * Hi,
 * No, this article is about my son. I'm Shaun Sr.  Re sources, what else would you like to see?  I have his birth certificate and pilot's license available.
 * Thanks,
 * Shaun ShaunTEvans (talk) 17:54, 27 August 2022 (UTC)
 * Okay, understood. Most of the advice RE autobios still applies, though.
 * But this being the case, the main issue at hand is one of conflicts of interest. I will post a separate message regarding that.
 * Best, -- DoubleGrazing (talk) 18:06, 27 August 2022 (UTC)
 * Hi,
 * Thank you for the clarification. Does this mean the declination still applies?  I did disclose my relationship (and I used my own name, lol).  Also, that's why the article is as 'short and sweet', and devoid of all but basic facts.  Everything is factual and easily verified, so I'm confused as to what the problem is, given the disclosure.  Would I just need to copy/paste it to someone who isn't his father and have them post it?
 * Thanks,
 * Shaun ShaunTEvans (talk) 18:15, 27 August 2022 (UTC)
 * Yes, the declination still stands. I declined the draft not because of your relationship, but because it is insufficiently referenced, and because notability isn't established — please see WP:REFB and WP:GNG, respectively, for advice on these two separate but related issues.
 * There is nothing to stop you continuing to work on this draft, despite your conflict of interest; you just cannot publish it without going through the AfC (Articles for Creation) review and approval process.
 * Your main priority should be to find and cite independent and reliable secondary sources that provide significant coverage of the subject, in order to show notability, per the GNG rule I've referenced above.
 * Best, -- DoubleGrazing (talk) 19:17, 27 August 2022 (UTC)

Managing a conflict of interest
Hello, ShaunTEvans. 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 organizations 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 request edit template);
 * disclose your conflict of interest when discussing affected articles (see Conflict of interest);
 * avoid linking to your organization's website in other articles (see Spam);
 * 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. DoubleGrazing (talk) 18:06, 27 August 2022 (UTC)
