Information icon Hello, Pbablow. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places, or things you have written about in the article Olurotimi Badero, you may have a conflict of interest (COI). Editors with a COI may be unduly influenced by their connection to the topic, and it is important when editing Wikipedia articles that such connections be completely transparent. See the conflict of interest guideline and FAQ for organizations for more information. In particular, we ask that you please:

  • avoid editing or creating articles related to you and your family, friends, school, company, club, or organization, as well as any competing companies' projects or products;
  • instead, you are encouraged to propose changes on the Talk pages of affected article(s) (see the {{request edit}} template);
  • when discussing affected articles, disclose your COI (see WP:DISCLOSE);
  • avoid linking to the Wikipedia article or to the website of your organization in other articles (see WP:SPAM);
  • exercise great caution so that you do not violate Wikipedia's content policies.

In addition, you must disclose your employer, client, and affiliation with respect to any contribution for which you receive, or expect to receive, compensation (see WP:PAID).

Please take a few moments to read and review Wikipedia's policies regarding conflicts of interest, especially those pertaining to neutral point of view, sourcing and autobiographies. Thank you. RunnyAmigatalk 19:47, 6 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Question regarding your edits

[edit]

Hi. Are you affiliated with Olurotimi Badero, either personally or professionally? RunnyAmigatalk 18:57, 13 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Hi again. You've edited that article since I posted this question but you haven't responded to me. I'd still like input from you before I resort to undoing your edits again. Are you Badero? Are you in any way affiliated with him? RunnyAmigatalk 19:54, 13 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

--Pbablow (talk) 16:41, 14 September 2016 (UTC) Hello,[reply]

I am in no way related to him, I have never met him in person or have any professional affiliations to him. I explained the reason for my edit before posting yesterday.

I just now noticed a note you left another user where you said, "I work for a magazine company in Nigeria and I was asked to do a story on him." So you were paid to do a story on him? Isn't that a "professional affiliation?"
That said, please have a look at WP:NPOV. Edits like yours are not allowed because they serve to promote. RunnyAmigatalk 16:50, 14 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
I wasn't paid to do a story on him. The magazine company I work with is owned by a church, RCCG, City of David (check out www.cityofdavidng.org)and we all work as volunteers and the proceeds we make from sales goes to charity.
--Pbablow (talk) 17:00, 14 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
So it's not necessarily "professional" but there's still a pretty obvious conflict. I assume this [1] is what you're talking about but I wasn't able to find the article/interview itself online. Did you have a look at WP:NPOV? RunnyAmigatalk 17:07, 14 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Found it. [2] I don't believe this changes anything regarding the WP:NPOV issue. RunnyAmigatalk 17:12, 14 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Okay, no problem. If you don't believe me you can pull the page down, all I did was with good intentions. Thank you! --Pbablow (talk) 17:23, 14 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

We have a reliable source claiming that Badero is the only doctor in the world with both heart and kidney specialties. That's more than enough to establish him as notable, so I think his article can stay up. My concern was with the text that came off as promotional and non-neutral. RunnyAmigatalk 17:35, 14 September 2016 (UTC) --Pbablow (talk) 17:47, 14 September 2016 (UTC) You can remove Avantgarde from the list of references, I have no problem with that, I am not seeking to promote Avantgarde, all I seek to do is to provide a biography on Dr. Badero for other users.[reply]

A tag has been placed on Olurotimi Badero, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page seems to be unambiguous advertising which only promotes a company, group, product, service, person, or point of view and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become encyclopedic. Please read the guidelines on spam and Wikipedia:FAQ/Organizations for more information.

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.
