Managing a conflict of interest

edit

  Hello, Becktea. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places, or things you have written about on Wikipedia, you may have a conflict of interest (COI). Editors with a COI may be unduly influenced by their connection to the topic, and it is important when editing Wikipedia articles that such connections be completely transparent. See the conflict of interest guideline and 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. - Bilby (talk) 01:46, 18 August 2016 (UTC)Reply

  • Your article above has once again been flagged for deletion in considerations by our policies, however, examining this, I must ask you to note our non-negotiable policies WP:What Wikipedia is not and WP:Paid, as it suggests you may be a connected employee or otherwise involved. SwisterTwister talk 06:32, 22 February 2017 (UTC)Reply
  • @SwisterTwister: I would like to declare that I am not an employee of WudStay or otherwise involved. I am trying to be an ethical contributor on Wikipedia adhering to guidelines and policies, adding Indian pages to the encyclopedia. I understand that not every company or organization can be listed, hence choose some that are notable in the Indian startup ecosystem. Becktea (talk) 19:59, 26 February 2017 (UTC)Reply

Proposed deletion of AppyStore

edit
 

The article AppyStore has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Fails WP:CORP. Sources only indicate that curated app stores are notable, not tgis app store. Sources also mention it in passing or as source of a report, as Indian Express. Note only substantial contributor is confirmed sockpuppet of undisclosed paid editing ring.

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.
