Managing a conflict of interest

edit

  Hello, Musicdiplomacy. 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 conflict of interest may be unduly influenced by their connection to the topic. See the conflict of interest guideline and FAQ for organizations for more information. We ask that you:

  • avoid editing or creating articles about yourself, your family, friends, colleagues, company, organization or competitors;
  • propose changes on the talk pages of affected articles (you can use the {{request edit}} template);
  • disclose your conflict of interest when discussing affected articles (see Wikipedia:Conflict of interest#How to disclose a COI);
  • avoid linking to your organization's website in other articles (see WP:Spam);
  • do your best to comply with Wikipedia's content policies.

In addition, you are required by the Wikimedia Foundation's terms of use to disclose your employer, client, and affiliation with respect to any contribution which forms all or part of work for which you receive, or expect to receive, compensation. See Wikipedia:Paid-contribution disclosure.

Also, editing for the purpose of advertising, publicising, or promoting anyone or anything is not permitted. Thank you. MrOllie (talk) 11:45, 19 July 2020 (UTC)Reply

You should not be reinstating an autobiography and overriding the decision made at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Paolo Petrocelli. - MrOllie (talk) 11:46, 19 July 2020 (UTC)Reply

Thanks for the clarification, Mrollie. The decision was made in 2016. I think there are now the terms for the re-creation of the page. Should I use the 'Request edit' template? Thanks for the guidance. - Musicdiplomacy (talk) 11:53, 19 July 2020 (UTC)Reply

Sources

At Talk:Paolo Petrocelli you gave this as a suggested source to justify recreating an article at Paolo Petrocelli.

Thank you for that, it is progress. But it appears to me to be a primary source so is not all that useful, except to clarify what is needed.

I suggest you continue to look for reliable secondary sources, and post any you find here. It does take a while to get the hang of what we mean by that! But we will get there.

Feel free to send me an email or drop a message on my talk page, or better still ping me here if you can figure out how. TIA Andrewa (talk) 16:36, 20 July 2020 (UTC)Reply

The article at EMMA for Peace gives several sources. https://cyprus-mail.com/2015/11/10/music-weaves-its-way-through-international-affairs/ and https://web.archive.org/web/20150402183032/https://it.cinema.yahoo.com/notizie/musica-nel-mediterraneo-risuona-la-pace-con-emma-140700797.html look particularly interesting. Unfortunately the second is in Italian, I do not read Italian and Google translate cannot help me. Suggestions? Andrewa (talk) 16:58, 20 July 2020 (UTC)Reply
