editHello JulieKB1953. The nature of your edits gives the impression you have an undisclosed financial stake in promoting a topic, but 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 serious type of COI; the Wikimedia Foundation regards it as a "black hat" practice akin to black-hat search-engine optimization.
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. If the article does not exist, paid advocates are extremely strongly discouraged 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:JulieKB1953. The template {{Paid}} can be used for this purpose – e.g. in the form: {{paid|user=JulieKB1953|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. 331dot (talk) 16:09, 17 November 2020 (UTC)
If you are editing about people who were once your clients, it would still fall under conflict of interest which you should disclose(though are not required to by the Terms of Use). Current clients do fall under the paid editing policy. 331dot (talk) 16:42, 17 November 2020 (UTC)
If I update articles on several old or new clients, I would list my employer but who would I list as my client? JulieKB1953 (talk) 17 November 2020 (UTC)
- I think that for old/former clients, it's enough to just say that the person used to be your client. No need to say any more in that case, from what I understand. For current clients, you would list who is paying you(your employer) and for whom the edit is for(your client). You would replace the words "Insertname" with the name of the client. 331dot (talk) 17:04, 17 November 2020 (UTC)
Can you review my user page? I want to make sure I am doing correctly. When I edit or submit an article I would include that on the article? JulieKB1953 (talk) 17:18, 17 November 2020 (UTC)
- Okay I've fixed your user page so the notice is correct. You don't need to include the declaration on the draft itself, but on the talk page for the draft. If you're using a computer as opposed to a phone, there should be a "talk" tab at the top of any draft you create, that's where to do it. 331dot (talk) 17:22, 17 November 2020 (UTC)
Thank you. I appreciate your help. I will submit the article for publishing JulieKB1953 (talk) 17:31, 17 November 2020 (UTC)
Speedy deletion nomination of Sara Bradley
editHello JulieKB1953,
I wanted to let you know that I just tagged Sara Bradley for deletion, because the article doesn't clearly indicate why the subject is important enough to be included in an encyclopedia.
If you feel that the article shouldn't be deleted and want more time to work on it, you can contest this deletion, but don't remove the speedy deletion tag from the top.
You can leave a note on my talk page if you have questions. Thanks!

Hello Alexandermcnabb|Alexandermcnabb, I would like help. I believe Sara Bradley is important enough to have an article. I am not sure how to leave a message on your talk. JulieKB1953 (talk) 17:14, 19 November 2020 (UTC)
advice
editAs reviewing administrator, I deleted this article, but under a different criterion, G11, essentially advertising, not correctable with normal editing.
I see you declared paid editing on the talk p., and therefore you should not have written that article in main space to begin with, but in draftspace, and let one of the AfC reviewers check it first. DGG ( talk ) 19:25, 19 November 2020 (UTC) Where do I go to start the article in draft space? I was in the process of editing and adding additional references.

suggestion
edit- I see from your user page that you wrote this as a paid editor, but you declare only that you work for Estes Public Relations. You need to also declare every article you write or contributed to in a paid capacity, See WP:PAID. . My advice would be to work on articles of personal interest to you until you learn our standards. . DGG ( talk ) 18:16, 3 May 2021 (UTC)
Concern regarding Draft:Sara Bradley
editHello, JulieKB1953. This is a bot-delivered message letting you know that Draft:Sara Bradley, a page you created, has not been edited in at least 5 months. Draft space is not an indefinite storage location for content that is not appropriate for article space.
If your submission is not edited soon, it could be nominated for deletion under CSD G13. If you would like to attempt to save it, you will need to improve it. You may request userfication of the content if it meets requirements.
If the deletion has already occurred, instructions on how you may be able to retrieve it are available here.
Thank you for your submission to Wikipedia. FireflyBot (talk) 11:02, 14 September 2021 (UTC)
