Your submission at Articles for creation: Illumio (December 27)[edit]

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed! Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reason left by Ceradon was:

This submission appears to read more like an advertisement than an entry in an encyclopedia. Encyclopedia articles need to be written from a neutral point of view, and should refer to a range of independent, reliable, published sources, not just to materials produced by the creator of the subject being discussed. This is important so that the article can meet Wikipedia's verifiability policy and the notability of the subject can be established. If you still feel that this subject is worthy of inclusion in Wikipedia, please rewrite your submission to comply with these policies.

Please check the submission for any additional comments left by the reviewer. You are encouraged to edit the submission to address the issues raised and resubmit when they have been resolved.

If you would like to continue working on the submission, go to Draft:Illumio and click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window.
If you need any assistance, you can ask for help at the Articles for creation help desk or on the reviewer's talk page.
You can also get real-time chat help from experienced editors.

Hello, I just accepted this article at AFC and wanted to confirm whether the GE Ventures is article is a paid assignment or not. Thanks and Regards, Vrac (talk) 19:43, 10 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Vrac - thank you for your review of and edits to the GE Ventures article, it is greatly appreciated! Per your question, I am confirming that this was a paid assignment. Rgedarov (talk) 20:02, 10 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, Someone pointed out that I missed a step regarding verification of paid contributions. The policy Wikipedia:Paid-contribution disclosure documents what must be declared for paid editing (see How to disclose section of document). I have placed the connected contributor template on the Talk:GE Ventures page, ideally this is something you should have done, however we are missing the "employer" data, i.e. who paid you to do the editing, which differs from client, which in this case I presume to be GE Ventures. Please let us know who the employer is so we can fill it out. Thanks and Regards, Vrac (talk) 19:43, 14 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Vrac - apologies for the trouble! Confirming that my employer is The OutCast Agency (www.theoutcastagency.com), and you are correct that my client is General Electric / GE Ventures. I can add these specifics to my Wikipedia user page as well. If there's anything else that needs to be done to reassure compliance, please let me know.

Thanks for that. You should take a close look at the Wikipedia:Paid-contribution disclosure policy, the requirements for disclosure have recently changed. Regards, Vrac (talk) 23:52, 23 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
