Welcome!
[edit]Hello, Lemon3245, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions.
I noticed that one of the first articles you edited appears to be dealing with a topic with which you may have a conflict of interest. In other words, you may find it difficult to write about that topic in a neutral and objective way, because you are, work for, or represent, the subject of that article. Your recent contributions may have already been undone for this very reason.
To reduce the chances of your contributions being undone, you might like to draft your revised article before submission, and then ask me or another editor to proofread it. See our help page on userspace drafts for more details. If the page you created has already been deleted from Wikipedia, but you want to save the content from it to use for that draft, don't hesitate to ask anyone from this list and they will copy it to your user page.
One rule we do have in connection with conflicts of interest is that accounts used by more than one person will unfortunately be blocked from editing. Wikipedia generally does not allow editors to have usernames which imply that the account belongs to a company or corporation. If you have a username like this, you should request a change of username or create a new account. (A name that identifies the user as an individual within a given organization may be OK.)
In addition, if you receive, or expect to receive, compensation for any contribution you make, you must disclose your employer, client, and affiliation to comply with our terms of use and our policy on paid editing.
Here are some pages that you might find helpful:

- Hello, User:Jimfbleak, thank you for your feedback and information. I understand what you mention in your message, however all of the information in the draft I'm writing is directly found in reliable sources. Would you recommend me to develop the article further for revision? I have already added more information but I'm not sure if they are visible to you, or please let me know where I can develop the article first before publication and that you or other user can check on it without it being deleted. Also please be sure that I'm the only person using this account. Thanks in advance I really appreciate the help! And sorry if I make mistakes but I'm trying to get familiar with the dynamic and policies of article publishing.

[edit]When you write about a person, you must provide independent verifiable sources to enable us to verify the facts and show that they meet the notability guidelines. Sources that are not acceptable include those linked to the person or an associated organisation, press releases, YouTube, IMDB, social media and other sites that can be self-edited, blogs, websites of unknown or non-reliable provenance, and sites that are just reporting what the person claims or interviewing them. Note that references should be in-line so we can tell what fact each is supporting, and should not be bare urls.
- Despite what you said, not all of your sources were independent, one is the website of the place where he works. Most of the others are reviews of his works, which are opinions rather than real verifiable facts. His notability, as linked above, doesn't depend on what people think of his work. The only real facts are when and where he was born, and where he and his partner work. Even then there'a problem in that your references, unless I missed something, don't confirm where you say they work.
- I don't know if he's notable enough for an article here, just not enough facts.
- You must write in a non-promotional tone. Articles must be neutral and encyclopaedic, with verifiable facts, not opinions or reviews.
- Which is basically what your article consist of.
Before attempting to write an article again, please make sure that the topic meets the notability criteria linked above, and check that you can find independent third party sources. Also read Your first article. You haven't fully answered my query at the top of the page. If you are writing about yourself, or someone you know as a friend, colleague, client, employer or relative, you have a conflict of interest, and you must disclose the nature of that COI.

- I understand, I'll try to find independent verifiable sources for the article. I do think he is a notable artist with wide international recognition, so I would just try to find better sources. Would something like the New York Times could be considered as an independent verifiable source? I'll rewrite the article and just keep facts and eliminate all artistic appreciation that could be considered as subjective.
- Clarifying the COI, he is an artist that I like and want to write something about him. What do you mean regarding in-line references? Thank you again!

- Thanks, the first para is a standard guidance, your refs were correctly in line, so that's not a problem Jimfbleak - talk to me? 14:12, 25 September 2024 (UTC)
Hello, I'm Qwerfjkl (bot). I have automatically detected that this edit performed by you, on the page Anri Sala, may have introduced referencing errors. They are as follows:
- A bare URL error. References show this error when one of the URL-containing parameters cannot be paired with an associated title. Please edit the article to add the appropriate title parameter to the reference. (Fix | Ask for help)
Please check this page and fix the errors highlighted. If you think this is a false positive, you can report it to my operator. Thanks, Qwerfjkl (bot) (talk) 02:03, 22 January 2025 (UTC)
