hello and a quick question?
Hello,

I noticed on this page  that you stated the photo of Dan Ritchie was "Sent to me personally from Daniel Ritchie". Would you happen to be doing the article on him and also the article on Cody Sipe as a paid editor? Conflict-of-interest editing on Wikipedia Please pardon the question if this is not the case, but I did not know if you were aware of the disclosure requirements here at wikipedia if an editor is doing paid editing. In any case, welcome to wikipedia. Cheers! WordSeventeen (talk) 19:49, 23 May 2015 (UTC)

Welcome!
WordSeventeen,

Thank you for pointing this out. I wasn't aware of the policy, but with your assistance I made the appropriate citations. Again, Thanks! I'm anxious to get this figured out - I noticed several articles over on the "request for edits" page that I'd love to work on in addition to the ones that I've already contributed to. Your links for beginners was extremely helpful as well. TGCJKS197276 (talk) 00:29, 24 May 2015 (UTC)

 * Will they still pay you when your spam articles get deleted? Joseph2302 (talk) 21:45, 23 May 2015 (UTC)


 * I feel as if that is a personal attack and am unsure how to respond. Perhaps you should review Etiquette. Rudeness and sarcasm are never good ways to resolve issues, either personally or professionally. Are you requesting deletion of my two pages because you feel angry that I was paid for them?

Some advice
If you decide to create more articles (either paid or unpaid), I strongly recommend all new users to use the WP:AFC process. The way it works is that you submit a draft, a reviewer reviews it and suggests improvements, and this continues until it meets Wikipedia standards- from experience, articles created this way are nearly always better quality. Joseph2302 (talk) 00:40, 24 May 2015 (UTC)

@User:Joseph2302 Thank you for this advice. I was following the information that I found on the "how to create a page" page. At first I thought I was to use the sandbox, but then I found the other page. This has been an extremely confusing experience, but I'm definitely willing and eager to learn. TGCJKS197276 (talk) 02:24, 25 May 2015 (UTC)


 * Another useful page to read is WP:SIMPLECOI, the gist of which is: don't edit pages where you have a conflict of interest, suggest edits to other editors instead. Articles for Creation is in a sense of variant of this guideline. You don't publish the article, you post a suggestion to publish. Q VVERTYVS (hm?) 05:27, 25 May 2015 (UTC)

Permission for image usage
Hi TGCJKS197276, on several of your uploads, you say that you have obtained permission for the usage of these images. Please forward this statement of permission to permissions-en@wikimedia.org. (Submissions to this address are confidential and will not be posted publicly.) We require that a statement of permission be on file for any image that you upload where you, personally, are not the sole creator of the image. (The "sole creator" means you held the camera in your hand, aimed it at the subject, and clicked the button.) The purpose of this exercise is to ensure that we respect the rights of copyright holders. Please see WP:CONSENT for more information. --B (talk) 11:31, 24 May 2015 (UTC)

Thank you - I'll review the WP:CONSENT page then let them know what they need to do. This has been tremendously helpful and I really appreciate the assistance. By the way, am I responding to these correctly by editing the section? TGCJKS197276 (talk) 02:26, 25 May 2015 (UTC)

encouragement
Hi TGCJKS197276, I hope that you do not become discouraged upon your rocky first experience here. Please know that all of the editors here are not so judgmental, and quick to pile on, when they feel some perceived wrong needs to be righted. You were not aware of a policy, but when asked about a possible issue, you were clearly forthright and did the proper thing. When someone offers advice to you here at wikipedia, it always good to look at that person's background and time of volunteer service here before accepting it. I would encourage you to keep writing articles using the article wizard. If you ever need any assistance on some articles, or have any questions please feel free to contact me on my talk page or via email from a link there. Have a great holiday weekend. Cheers! WordSeventeen (talk) 03:45, 25 May 2015 (UTC)


 * I've struck some personal attacks directed at me. Also, I'm happy to help, I've given advice about using WP:AFC to create articles above, but I firmly believe that if articles aren't good enough for Wikipedia, then the best approach is sometimes to delete them, rather than waste hours improving them before they get deleted. Joseph2302 (talk) 13:53, 28 May 2015 (UTC)

A barnstar for you!
WordSeventeen Thank you so much for the encouragement and the offer for assistance! This has most certainly been a "trial by fire" beginning, but I'm anxious to move forward and continue to learn. I'll use the article wizard from now and put it before other editors before taking it live. Lesson learned. :)TGCJKS197276 (talk) 15:42, 28 May 2015 (UTC)
