Potential conflict of interest

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. Cordless Larry (talk) 08:09, 31 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

. There are two ways to do this. Either:

1. Add four tildes ( ~~~~ ) at the end of your comment; or
2. With the cursor positioned at the end of your comment, click on the signature button ( or ) located above the edit window.

This will automatically insert a signature with your username or IP address and the time you posted the comment. This information is necessary to allow other editors to easily see who wrote what and when.

Thank you. --SineBot (talk) 08:15, 31 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Solved!

Draft:Alice Waddington

has a new comment

Thank you! I have tried to reduce the number of sources cited as much as possible to avoid bombarding and will be submitting the article for review tomorrow. Wish me good luck!

Hi MarthaDaisy. I'm not an AfC reviewer, but I saw your post at the Teahouse. After glancing over your draft, I noticed a couple of things: (1) You have embedded some external links into the body of the article; (2) you've added footnotes to section headings; and (3) the large number of sources being cited.

The first "problem" is not really in accordance with

if a stand-alone article exists for the target page; or simply removing the embedded link altogether if none of the other suggestions work.

The second "problem" is not really recommended per

, but it is also a fairly easy fix: simply move the footnote to the appropriate location within the relevant section.

The third "problem" is more difficult to fix and requires that you actually go through and re-check each and every citation for relevance. Fifty-two citations is not excessive if they all are relevant and absolutely needed for verifying article content. However, there is a tendency for some new editors creating an article for the first time that "more is always better" when it many cases the opposite may be the case for the reasons explained in

requires.

Finally, since you are writing about someone associated with the filmmaking, you might find some helpful information at Wikipedia:WikiProject Actors and Filmmakers. You can also ask questions or for advice on the projects talk page. -- Marchjuly (talk) 11:31, 1 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Oh no, I had no idea I had been noticed before!! I thought I need to remove them for submission of my draft. So sorry if it came across as disrespectful, I am still a bit lost on how wikipedia works as a whole and trying to learn. Thanks for the heads up!
