Also, when you post on talk pages you should sign your name using four tildes (~~~~); that should automatically produce your username and the date after your post.

I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! If you have any questions, feel free to leave me a message on my talk page, consult Wikipedia:Questions, or place {{helpme}} on your talk page and ask your question there.

Speedy declined - User:NickAangWiki[edit]

I declined your G10 speedy on this user page, because he wrote it himself: it seems to me an honest declaration that he is a paid editor (good, complies with the WMF's Terms of Use) and that he has some sock accounts (bad). JohnCD (talk) 15:45, 1 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Per this account, you may be interested in Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Nickaang/Archive. The user NickAangWiki account has now been blocked, and I have added them to the WP:SPI page. Just FYI. 220 of ^Borg 13:17, 6 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Tabitha Lipkin[edit]

I ended up taking this to AfD rather than speedy deletion. She's definitely non-notable, but her working as an anchor and winning the beauty contest is just enough to get her through speedy criteria. It's one of those situations where she might be able to get the article restored at DRV if she contested things, so it's safer to go through AfD since it'd make it more difficult for her to restore it without RS in the future. I just wanted to let you know so you can weigh in on the AfD. Tokyogirl79 (｡◕‿◕｡) 06:39, 8 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

A good idea, indeed. Thanks for the note. Kiranjitdas (talk) 06:43, 8 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Conflict of interest, disclosure required[edit]

Hello Kiranjitdas. The nature of your edits gives the impression you have a financial stake in promoting a topic, such as the edit you made to James Allen (company),. Paid advocacy is a category of conflict of interest (COI) editing that involves being compensated by a person, group, company or organization to use Wikipedia to promote their interests. Paid advocacy is prohibited by our policies on neutral point of view and what Wikipedia is not, and is an especially egregious type of COI; the Wikimedia Foundation regards it as a black hat practice.

Paid advocates are very strongly discouraged from direct article editing, and should instead propose changes on the talk page of the article in question if an article exists, and if it does not, from attempting to write an article at all. At best, any proposed article creation should be submitted through the articles for creation process, rather than directly.

Regardless, if you are receiving or expect to receive compensation for your edits, you are required by the Wikimedia Terms of Use to disclose your employer, client and affiliation. You can post such a mandatory disclosure to your user page at User:Kiranjitdas. The template {{Paid}} can be used for this purpose – e.g. in the form: {{paid|user=Kiranjitdas|employer=InsertName|client=InsertName}}. If I am mistaken – you are not being directly or indirectly compensated for your edits – please state that in response to this message. If you are being compensated, please provide the required disclosure. In either case, please do not edit further until you answer this message. - Brianhe (talk) 22:56, 27 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Notice of Conflict of interest noticeboard discussion[edit]

This message is being sent to inform you that there is currently a discussion at Wikipedia:Conflict of interest/Noticeboard regarding a possible conflict of interest incident in which you may be involved. Thank you. Brianhe (talk) 22:56, 27 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Proposed deletion of James Allen (company)[edit]

The article James Allen (company) has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Proposed deletion as a creation of confirmed Orangemoody sock Kiranjitdas, with no other editors.

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.
