Welcome!

[edit]

Hello, Imanraja, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions.

I noticed that one of the first articles you edited was PhagesDB, which appears to be dealing with a topic with which you may have a conflict of interest. In other words, you may find it difficult to write about that topic in a neutral and objective way, because you are, work for, or represent, the subject of that article. Your recent contributions may have already been undone for this very reason.

To reduce the chances of your contributions being undone, you might like to draft your revised article before submission, and then ask me or another editor to proofread it. See our help page on userspace drafts for more details. If the page you created has already been deleted from Wikipedia, but you want to save the content from it to use for that draft, don't hesitate to ask anyone from this list and they will copy it to your user page.

One rule we do have in connection with conflicts of interest is that accounts used by more than one person will unfortunately be blocked from editing. Wikipedia generally does not allow editors to have usernames which imply that the account belongs to a company or corporation. If you have a username like this, you should request a change of username or create a new account. (A name that identifies the user as an individual within a given organization may be OK.)

In addition, if you receive, or expect to receive, compensation for any contribution you make, you must disclose your employer, client, and affiliation to comply with our terms our use and policy on paid editing.

Here are some pages that you might find helpful:

I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Please sign your messages on talk pages using four tildes (~~~~); this will automatically insert your username and the date. If you need help, check out Wikipedia:Questions, ask me on my talk page, or ask your question on this page and then place {{Help me}} before the question. Again, welcome!

PhagesDB

[edit]

Hello - I hate it when important scientific topics get put forward for deletion, whilst minor TV celebrities get written about in inordinate and boring depth. May I urge you to find and utilise reliable and in-depth, independent sources to support your new article on PhagesDB. I fear that without these it won't be long until someone proposes it for deletion. This is not to suggest that its scientific import is not recognised, just that Wikipedia uses certain criteria for Notability that have to be met for articles to remain here. In future, my advice would be to work on articles in draft and get them up to a great standard before moving them into the main encyclopaedia. Any questions - leave a note on my talk page, or post a question at the WP:Teahouse.  Regards from the UK, Nick Moyes (talk) 21:49, 20 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Nomination of PhagesDB for deletion

[edit]

A discussion is taking place as to whether the article PhagesDB is suitable for inclusion in Wikipedia according to Wikipedia's policies and guidelines or whether it should be deleted.

The article will be discussed at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/PhagesDB until a consensus is reached, and anyone is welcome to contribute to the discussion. The nomination will explain the policies and guidelines which are of concern. The discussion focuses on high-quality evidence and our policies and guidelines.

Users may edit the article during the discussion, including to improve the article to address concerns raised in the discussion. However, do not remove the article-for-deletion notice from the top of the article. power~enwiki (π, ν) 22:07, 21 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Unspecified source/license for File:Maxresdefault.jpg

[edit]

Thanks for uploading File:Maxresdefault.jpg. The image has been identified as not specifying the copyright status of the image, which is required by Wikipedia's policy on images. Even if you created the image yourself, you still need to release it so Wikipedia can use it. If you don't indicate the copyright status of the image on the image's description page, using an appropriate copyright tag, it may be deleted some time after the next seven days. If you made this image yourself, you can use copyright tags like {{PD-self}} (to release all rights), {{self|CC-by-sa-3.0|GFDL}} (to require that you be credited), or any tag here - just go to the image, click edit, and add one of those. If you have uploaded other images, please verify that you have provided copyright information for them as well.

For more information on using images, see the following pages:

This is an automated notice by MifterBot. For assistance on the image use policy, see Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. NOTE: Once you correct this, please remove the tag from the image's page. --MifterBot (TalkContribsOwner) 15:46, 11 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Non-free rationale for File:Maxresdefault.jpg

[edit]

Thanks for uploading or contributing to File:Maxresdefault.jpg. I notice the file page specifies that the file is being used under non-free content criteria, but there is not a suitable explanation or rationale as to why each specific use in Wikipedia is acceptable. Please go to the file description page, and edit it to include a non-free rationale.

If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified the non-free rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'file' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "File" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free media lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described in section F6 of the criteria for speedy deletion. If the file is already gone, you can still make a request for undeletion and ask for a chance to fix the problem. If you have any questions, please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

ATTENTION: This is an automated, bot-generated message. This bot DID NOT nominate any file(s) for deletion; please refer to the page history of each individual file for details. Thanks, FastilyBot (talk) 03:00, 13 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Stop adding that screenshot

[edit]

Imanraja, please stop adding that screenshot to PhagesDB. It is not informative nor illustrative of the topic, and it is not practice in WP articles to add such images of splash screens for this type of topic. (Also, as youy may have noticed from the above messages, there's various problems with your license declarations. Just give it a miss :) --Elmidae (talk · contribs) 16:20, 16 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
