Just checking out how everything works

Hey Chris, I hope you had a good weekend. I think I figured how to do all this wikipedia stuff so let me know if you need help. Jmsaint (talk) 21:24, 3 September 2013 (UTC)

Your recent edits

Hello and welcome to Wikipedia. When you add content to talk pages and Wikipedia pages that have open discussion (but never when editing articles), please be sure to sign your posts. 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) 06:45, 11 September 2013 (UTC)

Possible Articles

1. J. R. Partington 2. François Fulgis Chevallier 3. Natural History Museum of Tripoli 4. John E. Amoore 5. Kenneth Ross MacKenzie

Hi, Chris! Welcome to the Wikipedia Education Program—I hope you enjoy editing this semester. Fun wiki code fact: if you want to make a numbered list (like the one above), you can use the # before each list item. It will automatically number them for you and post them on separate lines. :) Also, if you want to link to another Wikipedia article, you can enclose the title of the page in double brackets. Have fun with it! JMathewson (WMF) (talk) 18:06, 17 September 2013 (UTC)

The articles on J. R. Partington or the Natural History Museum of Tripoli would both work for the class. The others appear to be scientists who are outside the time scope of our class. Working on the Natural History Museum could be particularly interesting, but you'll want to make sure there are several different sources from which to gather material. You don't want to start working and then find that the only source is the Museum itself. There are several articles about Partington that I know of, so I think he would work as a subject of research.Kirwanfan (talk) 17:54, 18 September 2013 (UTC)

Disambiguation link notification for September 30

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Love's Travel Stops & Country Stores, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Lyric Theatre. Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Speedy deletion nomination of The Travel Ledger

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.

You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on The Travel Ledger requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about web content, but it does not credibly indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please read more about what is generally accepted as notable.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.

Undisclosed paid editing

Hello Chriscorbaz. The nature of your edits gives the impression you have a financial stake in promoting a topic, but that you have not complied with Wikipedia's mandatory paid editing disclosure requirements. Paid advocacy is a category of conflict of interest (COI) editing that involves being compensated by a person, group, company or organization to use Wikipedia to promote their interests. Undisclosed paid advocacy is prohibited by our policies on neutral point of view and what Wikipedia is not, and is an especially egregious type of COI; the Wikimedia Foundation regards it as a black hat practice.
Paid advocates are very strongly discouraged from direct article editing, and should instead propose changes on the talk page of the article in question if an article exists, and if it does not, from attempting to write an article at all. At best, any proposed article creation should be submitted through the articles for creation process, rather than directly.
Regardless, if you are receiving or expect to receive compensation for your edits, broadly construed, you are required by the Wikimedia Terms of Use to disclose your employer, client and affiliation. You can post such a mandatory disclosure to your user page at User:Chriscorbaz. The template {{Paid}} can be used for this purpose – e.g. in the form: {{paid|user=Chriscorbaz|employer=InsertName|client=InsertName}}. If I am mistaken – you are not being directly or indirectly compensated for your edits – please state that in response to this message. Otherwise, please provide the required disclosure. In either case, do not edit further until you answer this message. SmartSE (talk) 21:15, 4 October 2017 (UTC)

Hello! I am not being compensated directly or indirectly in any way, shape or form.— Preceding unsigned comment added by Chriscorbaz (talk • contribs)

That seems rather at odds with you appearing to be a marketing professional and the fact that you appear to be the founder of The Travel Ledger and were previously an intern at CommCore Consulting Group. Then you just so happen to know the date of birth of Korey McMahon and access to a PR photograph that you claimed as your own work. SmartSE (talk) 09:47, 5 October 2017 (UTC)

I'm flattered but I am not a marketing professional and I have never been paid by either of them. I wish I was. The Travel Ledger is my travel website that I do as a side hobby because I am traveling the world at the moment. I know Korey's birthday because I googled korey mcmahon birth. I will make sure to add more and better sourcing to my contributions. As well as look over the guidelines to make sure further confusion is avoided. Thank you for making me aware! Chriscorbaz (talk) 10:12, 5 October 2017 (UTC)

Well it appears to me as if you have a degree in PR and work in communications... it's not a big jump from that to being a marketing professional. I'm afraid I find it hard to believe you as you have once again created Korey McMahon containing large amounts of unsourced and promotional content. SmartSE (talk) 12:40, 6 October 2017 (UTC)

Well you're clearly not a lawyer because appear and reality are two different things. The first time the page was done it was not done well. The second one was. The material I have is sourced properly by real sources including U.S. Chamber of Commerce and The Norman Transcript. There was zero promotional content. Maybe if you spent more time actually reading and visiting those pages instead of stalking me on the internet you would know that. Also you are one creepy individual who needs to stop stalking me. Please stop, it's weird and makes me uncomfortable. I don't work in PR or communications or marketing. FYI since researching anything but me isn't your strong suit, PR and communications is completely different than marketing. Chriscorbaz (talk) 14:06, 6 October 2017 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Korey McMahon

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.

You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on Korey McMahon, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page seems to be unambiguous advertising which only promotes a company, group, product, service, person, or point of view and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become encyclopedic. Please read the guidelines on spam and Wikipedia:FAQ/Organizations for more information.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.

Replaceable fair use File:Korey McMahon infobox image.png

Thanks for uploading File:Korey McMahon infobox image.png. I noticed that this file is being used under a claim of fair use. However, I think that the way it is being used fails the first non-free content criterion. This criterion states that files used under claims of fair use may have no free equivalent; in other words, if the file could be adequately covered by a freely-licensed file or by text alone, then it may not be used on Wikipedia. If you believe this file is not replaceable, please:

1. Go to the file description page and add the text {{di-replaceable fair use disputed|<your reason>}} below the original replaceable fair use template, replacing <your reason> with a short explanation of why the file is not replaceable.
2. On the file discussion page, write a full explanation of why you believe the file is not replaceable.

Alternatively, you can also choose to replace this non-free media item by finding freely licensed media of the same subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or similar) media under a free license, or by creating new media yourself (for example, by taking your own photograph of the subject).

If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified how these media fully satisfy our non-free content criteria. You can find a list of description pages you have edited by clicking on this link. Note that even if you follow steps 1 and 2 above, non-free media which could be replaced by freely licensed alternatives will be deleted 2 days after this notification (7 days if uploaded before 13 July 2006), per the non-free content policy. If you have any questions, please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. SmartSE (talk) 12:35, 6 October 2017 (UTC)

Orphaned non-free image File:Ring Rust Radio Logo.jpg

⚠

Thanks for uploading File:Ring Rust Radio Logo.jpg. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described in section F5 of the criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. --B-bot (talk) 03:31, 21 February 2019 (UTC)
