[edit]

Information icon Welcome to Wikipedia, and thank you for your contributions. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, please note that there is a Manual of Style that should be followed to maintain a consistent, encyclopedic appearance. Deviating from this style, as you did in Charles VI of France, disturbs uniformity among articles and may cause readability or accessibility problems. Please take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. I reverted your unencyclopedic language that essentially states what is more objectively expressed elsewhere in the article. Please see Wikipedia:Manual of Style/Words to watch.

February 2020

[edit]

Information icon Please do not add inappropriate external links to Wikipedia, as you did to Sherman Oaks, Los Angeles. Wikipedia is not a collection of links, nor should it be used for advertising or promotion. Inappropriate links include, but are not limited to, links to personal websites, links to websites with which you are affiliated (whether as a link in article text, or a citation in an article), and links that attract visitors to a website or promote a product. See the external links guideline and spam guideline for further explanations. Because Wikipedia uses the nofollow attribute value, its external links are disregarded by most search engines. If you feel the link should be added to the page, please discuss it on the associated talk page rather than re-adding it. Thank you. John from Idegon (talk) 23:48, 7 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.

You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on Let's Paint Sherman Oaks requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a company, corporation or organization that does not credibly indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please read more about what is generally accepted as notable.

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. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator. Tymon.r Do you have any questions? 01:05, 8 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • Hi. You appear to have many misconceptions about Wikipedia. Please read the links added at the top of this page, and take advantage of the Teahouse for questions you may have. Don't feel bad. Most people completely misunderstand how Wikipedia works when they first come to edit. Heed what you're told, Assume good faith, and ask questions. You'll be fine. John from Idegon (talk) 01:18, 8 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Welcome to Wikipedia: check out the Teahouse!

Editing with a possible paid conflict of interest

[edit]
Information icon

Hello MoonRiver777. The nature of your edits gives the impression you have an undisclosed financial stake in promoting a topic, but you have not complied with Wikipedia's mandatory paid editing disclosure requirements. 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. Undisclosed 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 akin to black-hat SEO.

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, broadly construed, 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:MoonRiver777. The template {{Paid}} can be used for this purpose – e.g. in the form: {{paid|user=MoonRiver777|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. Otherwise, please provide the required disclosure. In either case, do not edit further until you answer this message. --SamHolt6 (talk) 05:03, 8 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Hello SamHolt6, there is no possible paid conflict of interest. I didn't receive anything from Togo dog or James Dean too. I've seen so many Wikipedia articles without even 2 or 3 reliable references, few sentences articles etc... My article is perfect and meets all requirements. It's unfair to delete the article about well known person who saves people's lives and keep thousands of not important issues.

Persian Medium moved to draftspace

[edit]

An article you recently created, Persian Medium, does not have enough sources and citations as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. (?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of "Draft:" before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page.

Please note it is a requirement that biographies of living people have inline citations. As such, this is unsuitable for the encyclopedia. Please fix it and submit it for review. John from Idegon (talk) 05:07, 8 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Sockpuppet investigation

[edit]

A sockpuppet investigation (WP:SPI) concerning your account is underway at Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Billphil1. You are invited to participate. SamHolt6 (talk) 14:34, 8 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Your draft article, Draft:Persian Medium

[edit]

Hello, MoonRiver777. It has been over six months since you last edited the Articles for Creation submission or Draft page you started, "Persian Medium".

In accordance with our policy that Wikipedia is not for the indefinite hosting of material deemed unsuitable for the encyclopedia mainspace, the draft has been nominated for deletion. If you plan on working on it further, or editing it to address the issues raised if it was declined, simply edit the submission and remove the {{db-afc}}, {{db-draft}}, or {{db-g13}} code.

If your submission has already been deleted by the time you get there, and you wish to retrieve it, you can request its undeletion by following the instructions at this link. An administrator will, in most cases, restore the submission so you can continue to work on it.

Thank you for your submission to Wikipedia! UnitedStatesian (talk) 02:04, 30 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
