Welcome!
editHello, Mormoironier, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions.
I noticed that one of the first articles you 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, 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:

- How to edit a page and How to develop articles
- How to create your first article (using the Article Wizard if you wish)

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.

before the question. Again, welcome! 331dot (talk) 09:53, 11 July 2023 (UTC)
- I have published a revised version. As you can see it is heavily referenced so that everything I have written is sourced from those references and is verifiable. The problem is that my references point to old sources (1964-1992) so are difficult to verify online. I do have electronic copies of all of them that can be sent/ uploaded as needed. Please advise me! Thanks Mormoironier (talk) 14:38, 11 July 2023 (UTC)
- Can you proof read this for me - I would wlecome some advice? Thanks Mormoironier (talk) 14:46, 11 July 2023 (UTC)
Recover lost Sandbox file
editHow do I do this - 3 hours of work! Mormoironier (talk) 12:34, 11 July 2023 (UTC)
- You have not saved the content of your sandbox, so unless it is still open on your browser somewhere it is indeed lost. Theroadislong (talk) 12:41, 11 July 2023 (UTC)
- oh, thanks Mormoironier (talk) 12:42, 11 July 2023 (UTC)

Your user page
editYou appear to be creating an article on your user page. See WP:USERPAGE for what is allowed there I suggest you use the WP:AFC process instead.Theroadislong (talk) 15:17, 11 July 2023 (UTC)
- As I have just offered at the Teahouse, I'm happy to either move this to a Draft page, or straight into mainspace for you. The Daily Telegraph obituary I found clearly proves his notability. But either way I think it merits expanding upon, based on those sources. Nick Moyes (talk) 16:17, 11 July 2023 (UTC)
Your submission at Articles for creation: Richard Francis (broadcaster) has been accepted
editCongratulations, and thank you for helping expand the scope of Wikipedia! We hope you will continue making quality contributions.
The article has been assessed as Stub-Class, which is recorded on its talk page. It is commonplace for new articles to start out as stubs and then attain higher grades as they develop over time. You may like to take a look at the grading scheme to see how you can improve the article.
If you have any questions, you are welcome to ask at the help desk. Once you have made at least 10 edits and had an account for at least four days, you will have the option to create articles yourself without posting a request to Articles for creation.
