Your submission at Articles for creation: Mara (November 1)

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed! Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reason left by HouseBlaster 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 after they have been resolved.

If you would like to continue working on the submission, go to Draft:Mara and click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window.
If you do not edit your draft in the next 6 months, it will be considered abandoned and may be deleted.
If you need any assistance, or have experienced any untoward behavior associated with this submission, you can ask for help at the Articles for creation help desk, on the reviewer's talk page or use Wikipedia's real-time chat help from experienced editors.

Hello, Ghostfishing! Having an article draft declined at Articles for Creation can be disappointing. If you are wondering why your article submission was declined, please post a question at the Articles for creation help desk. If you have any other questions about your editing experience, we'd love to help you at the Teahouse, a friendly space on Wikipedia where experienced editors lend a hand to help new editors like yourself! See you there! House Blaster^talk 15:34, 1 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, Thanks for reviewing. Would you be kind to assist me with a few tips on how to improve the article? Ghostfishing (talk) 18:56, 1 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

First, are you being employed/paid by Mara? If so, under the Wikimedia Terms of Use, you are legally required to disclose this relationship publicly. Second, Wikipedia is not the place to promote a business. Much of the article reads like an advertisement: for example, "enables users to easily buy, sell..." (emphasis mine). Before you resubmit, I would highly recommend that you go over the article to make sure it is written as an neutral, "boring" explanation of the facts. Let me know if you have any questions! House Blaster^talk 12:19, 2 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks. I am not a staff member or employee of Mara. I'll go through the article again. Ghostfishing (talk) 10:05, 7 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

See WP:COI. Submitter has stated that they are not a "staff member or employee of Mara" in response to a previous query, but that doesn't fully address COI.

Onuche Ogbelu moved to draftspace

An article you recently created, Onuche Ogbelu, is not suitable as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. (?) WP:NFOOTY is no longer a valid SNG, so GNG must be met. It needs several refs from independent, reliable, secondary sources to pass WP:GNG. It should have at least 3 of those. Please remember that routine sports coverage does not satisfy GNG, and that interviews, being primary sources, do not go to notability either. 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 do not review your own edits at CopyPatrol

Do not mark your own edits as "no action needed" at CopyPatrol. Even if you modified the article and meant well, that system only works when every edit that is flagged as a potential copyright violation is independently reviewed by another editor who can determine what, if anything else, needs to be done. Thanks. DanCherek (talk) 01:52, 7 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

It was a mistake but noted. Thanks Ghostfishing (talk) 05:25, 7 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

XDC Network moved to draftspace

Thanks for your contributions to XDC Network. Unfortunately, I do not think it is ready for publishing at this time because you may have a possible Conflict of Interest. I have converted your article to a draft which you can improve, undisturbed for a while.

Please see more information at Help:Unreviewed new page. When the article is ready for publication, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page OR move the page back. Fancy Refrigerator ^(talk) 13:03, 14 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

hi User:Fancy_Refrigerator, thanks for the review. There's no COI though as I am neither a staff of XDC Network nor a paid editor. I am just a crypto enthusiast. From what you've written I believe the references are in order, so I'd appreciate if you could point out specific areas you think may need improving. Thanks Ghostfishing (talk) 15:24, 14 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Ghostfishing. The lead section needs improving; the last three sentences, in particular, read like an advertisement. Fancy Refrigerator ^(talk) 11:56, 15 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Fancy Refrigerator. I've worked on the lead section and submitted it for review. However, it is a bit difficult to rewrite this sentence: 'XDC Network is the first hybrid blockchain that combines the features of public and private blockchains with interoperable smart contracts'. That's what makes the blockchain notable and different from others, and it is not promotional in my honest opinion. Kindly take a look and get back to me .

Thanks. Ghostfishing (talk) 22:07, 15 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Managing a conflict of interest

Hello, Ghostfishing. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about on the page XDC Network, 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:

avoid editing or creating articles about yourself, your family, friends, colleagues, company, organization, clients, or competitors;
propose changes on the talk pages of affected articles (you can use the {{edit COI}} template);
disclose your conflict of interest when discussing affected articles (see Wikipedia:Conflict of interest § How to disclose a COI);
avoid linking to your organization's website in other articles (see Wikipedia:Spam § External link spamming);
do your best to comply with Wikipedia's content policies.

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. Fancy Refrigerator ^(talk) 13:04, 14 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Your submission at Articles for creation: XDC Network (January 10)

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

This draft's references do not show that the subject qualifies for a Wikipedia article. In summary, the draft needs multiple published sources that are:

in-depth (not just brief mentions about the subject or routine announcements)
reliable
secondary
strictly independent of the subject

Make sure you add references that meet all four of these criteria before resubmitting. Learn about mistakes to avoid when addressing this issue. If no additional references exist, the subject is not suitable for Wikipedia.

The comment the reviewer left was:

Lots of references but it's not clear whether any of them are actually independent.

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 after they have been resolved.

If you would like to continue working on the submission, go to Draft:XDC Network and click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window.
If you do not edit your draft in the next 6 months, it will be considered abandoned and may be deleted.
