User talk:1amroff

Hello, 1amroff, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions.

I noticed that one of the first articles you edited was Shahriyar Majidzade, which 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:

• Best practices for editors with close associations

• Tutorial
• How to edit a page and How to develop articles
• How to create your first article (using the Article Wizard if you wish)
• Simplified Manual of Style
• The Teahouse, our help forum for new editors

I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Please sign your messages on talk pages using four tildes (~~~~); this will automatically insert your username and the date. If you need help, visit the Teahouse, check out Wikipedia:Questions, ask me on my talk page, or ask your question on this page and then place {{Help me}} before the question. Again, welcome!

Hello @Jay8g. Thank you very much for your instructive comment.

In fact, I represent the subject in the article and this might be considered as conflict of interest according to Wikipedia rules.

I hereby declare that I am not getting any compensation for any contributions I made, will make on this article.

The reason for my recent edits on this live page is that, this article is marked as "article for deletion" for "not being a notable person" and I added some additional resources and information for justifying the notability of this person (See the discussion here: Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Shahriyar Majidzade).

I would be happy I you help me to move it to userspace for now and proofread it to be written from a neutral point of view. 1amroff (talk) 07:02, 25 April 2025 (UTC)

Hi 1amroff, thanks for your message re the above article currently subject to possible deletion. I am currently fairly inactive on Wikipedia and don't normally do much work in Articles for Creation reviews so feel that I'm unable to be of much help to you. I suggest that you check out the advice at Wikipedia:WikiProject Articles for creation plus List of Reviewers and, in particular, this page for a list of reviewers with suitable experience who may be able to help. Best wishes. Cactus.man ✍ 18:29, 26 April 2025 (UTC)

1amroff, while I can appreciate your efforts to preserve an article with which you have COI, your method of seeking assistance does not follow English Wikipedia's standards for behavior. Efforts to clandestinely influence articles are fundamentally antithetical to Wikipedia's ethos. I will not "keep the contents of (your) email confidential". Making such an ask is highly inappropriate. You are canvassing for editors who you think will be amenable to your position and maintaining the article. This is not allowed by Wikipedia policy. Why you reached to me in particular is a mystery; I have never edited the Shahriyar Majidzade article, nor professed any interest in Azerbaijani topics.

I am not the first person you have reached out to in this way. You must engage with the article on its Talk page and on the deletion discussion page in an open and honest manner instead of trying to influence votes via email to random editors.

For posterity, I am putting the contents of your email on this talk page.

I respectfully decline your request for assistance. I will not be reviewing these sources, nor will I be participating in the deletion discussion. You will find that candor and honesty will serve you far better on Wikipedia than this attempt at back channel dealing. M4V3R1CK32 (talk) 16:46, 28 April 2025 (UTC)
