Welcome![edit]

Hello, Eilish.Foxen-McGough, and welcome to Wikipedia! I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Unfortunately, one or more of the pages you created, such as Draft:Celia Gregson, may not conform to some of Wikipedia's content policies and may not be retained. In short, the topic of an article must be notable and have already been the subject of publication by reliable and independent sources.

Please review Your first article for an overview of the article creation process. The Article Wizard is available to help you create an article, where it will be reviewed and considered for publication. For information on how to request a new article that can be created by someone else, see Requested articles. If you are stuck, come to the Teahouse, where experienced Wikipedians can help you through the processes.

New to Wikipedia? Please consider taking a look at our introductory tutorial or reviewing the contributing to Wikipedia page to learn the basics about editing. Below are a few other good pages about article creation.

I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Please sign your name on talk pages using four tildes (~~~~); this will automatically produce your name and the date. If you have any questions, ask me on my talk page. You can also type {{help me}} on this page, followed by your question, and someone will show up shortly to answer your questions. Again, welcome! Tails Wx (they/them) ⚧ 10:01, 25 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

A tag has been placed on Draft:Celia Gregson requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page appears to be an unambiguous copyright infringement. This page appears to be a direct copy from https://research-information.bris.ac.uk/en/persons/celia-l-gregson. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images taken from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. You may use external websites or other printed material as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. This part is crucial: say it in your own words. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.

If the external website or image belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text or image — which means allowing other people to use it for any reason — then you must verify that externally by one of the processes explained at Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials. The same holds if you are not the owner but have their permission. If you are not the owner and do not have permission, see Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission for how you may obtain it. You might want to look at Wikipedia's copyright policy for more details, or ask a question here.

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 deleted 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.

Managing a conflict of interest[edit]

Information icon Hello, Eilish.Foxen-McGough. 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:

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 Wikipedia:Paid-contribution disclosure.

Also, editing for the purpose of advertising, publicising, or promoting anyone or anything is not permitted. Thank you. Jimfbleak - talk to me? 14:21, 30 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Information icon

As previously advised, your edits give the impression you have a financial stake in promoting a topic, but you have not complied with Wikipedia's mandatory paid editing disclosure requirements. You were asked to cease editing until you responded by either stating that you are not being directly or indirectly compensated for your edits, or by complying with the mandatory requirements under the Wikimedia Terms of Use that you disclose your employer, client and affiliation. Again, you can post such a disclosure on your user page at User:Eilish.Foxen-McGough, and the template {{Paid}} can be used for this purpose – e.g. in the form: {{paid|user=Eilish.Foxen-McGough|employer=InsertName|client=InsertName}}. Please respond before making any other edits to Wikipedia. Theroadislong (talk) 08:51, 31 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I have to say this is very complicated and time consuming. I am a member of staff at the University of Bristol and part of my job role is to create Wikipedia pages for staff and have been transparent about this from the beginning. Eilish.Foxen-McGough (talk) 10:45, 31 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Then you need to make the paid editor disclosure on your user page, per instructions, we are all volunteers here. Theroadislong (talk) 10:57, 31 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
I am not sure how to proceed at all with this. Whilst creating Wikipedia pages for staff is now part of my job role it is not something I am specifically paid to do. For example, I am not paid per edit. Is this classed as having a financial stake in a topic? Furthermore, I have no idea how to disclose my employer on Wikipedia as when I clicked on my user page I just got an editing screen. It would be a lot easier if Wikipedia had tick boxes or a straightforward form for disclosing your employer as opposed to blank templates which are not clear how and what needs completing. Eilish.Foxen-McGough (talk) 11:01, 31 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
The instructions are above.... the template {{Paid}} can be used for this purpose – e.g. in the form: {{paid|user=Eilish.Foxen-McGough|employer=InsertName|client=InsertName}} this is what you put on your user page, you are most definitely deemed to be a paid editor! Theroadislong (talk) 11:04, 31 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Please also read WP:YFA, articles on Wikipedia are based on what reliable independent sources have said NOT what the primary sources say, creating an article here is one of the most difficult tasks there is, creating one when you have a conflict of interest is doubly difficult. You might find this useful too Wikipedia:When your boss tells you to edit Wikipedia. Theroadislong (talk) 11:07, 31 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Hello,
I think I am going to need to discuss this with my employer as I am not sure how to negotiate the conflict of interest issue. Eilish.Foxen-McGough (talk) 12:46, 31 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
You negotiate it by fully disclosing as per instructions. Theroadislong (talk) 12:47, 31 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
There is no need to be rude is there? The instructions are not clear. As a new user of Wikipedia the paid template is not clear at all and I have no idea what applies to me and what doesn't. Instead of being helpful and guiding a new user through the process just showing them a page with a variety of options and just telling them to follow instructions is counter productive.
Also please do not use exclamation marks as per your previous message when talking to me. I do not appreciate being shouted at. Eilish.Foxen-McGough (talk) 12:55, 31 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
I have added the template for you. Theroadislong (talk) 13:06, 31 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
There is nothing for you to discuss with your employer. You are required to declare your paid editing by our T&C, whether or not it is a specific part of your job. I came here to block you for not doing so, but I see you are engaging with Theroadislong, so I will hold off for now. I can't see that that editor is being rude, it's more you being defensive when you are the one who isn't following our rules. For the avoidance of any doubt, you must copy and save the following to User:Eilish.Foxen-McGough {{paid|user=Eilish.Foxen-McGough|employer=University of Bristol}} as soon as possible Jimfbleak - talk to me? 13:14, 31 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
I see Theroadislong has kindly done that for you Jimfbleak - talk to me? 13:16, 31 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
I will be discussing with my employer whether or not it is advisable for me, as a member of staff to even be creating articles as per the messages above and the link sent to me by theroadislong.
As previously mentioned I am a new user to Wikipedia and was not given any training or spoken to about T&Cs or conflict of interest. This is brand new information to me that I have became aware of today, I advise you have patience with new site users and don't expect them to be proficient within days nor threaten to block them when they're just asking for help. This has not been a pleasant user experience.
Our organisation Wikipedia training was solely on how to create articles, I assure you I was NOT willfully disregarding rules and regulations. 92.232.76.16 (talk) 13:30, 31 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Your references need to be independent of her, whereas most of yours were from organisations she is associated with, even including one of her own papers. At least one ref, Nogg, doesn't mention her on the linked page, and therefore doesn't confirm what you claim Jimfbleak - talk to me? 13:51, 31 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
