User talk:Aliceattie

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

I noticed that one of the first articles you created or 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, which will be reviewed by other editors. 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:

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!

Hi there, Alice. Just to copy over my advice from your original question on the Teahouse as it seems you missed it;

I assume that you are referring to a Wikipedia article about you rather than an article you have made; perhaps Alice Attie?

First, you should know that now that you have expressed an interest in the article about yourself, you may be contacted by scammers offering you various 'editing services.' You should report these offers if they come; see the details at WP:SCAM.

Secondly, it is generally improper to edit articles about yourself. If you have changes that you wish to be made, you can request them with the Edit request wizard and a volunteer will review and perform them eventually.

Third, now that you have brought this article to attention it is likely that it will be freshly scrutinised to determine whether you, as the subject, meet Wikipedia's special definition of a 'notable person' and therefore qualify for a Wikipedia article. If that scrutiny leads to a discussion about deleting your article, do not be alarmed; this is a normal part of Wikipedia's process, and the vast majority of people do not qualify for a Wikipedia article about themselves, even those people who have had successful creative careers. There are a great many old articles such as yours that may have been created when Wikipedia's standards were more lax, or are simply low-profile enough to have heretofore evaded detailed scrutiny.

WP:About you contains some more general advice for people who are the subjects of articles.
