May 2014

Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, your addition of one or more external links to the page Murder 101 (film) has been reverted.
Your edit here to Murder 101 (film) was reverted by an automated bot that attempts to remove links which are discouraged per our external links guideline. The external link(s) you added or changed (https://www.facebook.com/pages/Murder-101/301343256551991) is/are on my list of links to remove and probably shouldn't be included in Wikipedia.
If you were trying to insert an external link that does comply with our policies and guidelines, then please accept my creator's apologies and feel free to undo the bot's revert. However, if the link does not comply with our policies and guidelines, but your edit included other, constructive, changes to the article, feel free to make those changes again without re-adding the link. Please read Wikipedia's external links guideline for more information, and consult my list of frequently-reverted sites. For more information about me, see my FAQ page. Thanks! --XLinkBot (talk) 21:21, 5 May 2014 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Sheldon Robins

You may also wish to consider using a Wizard to help you create articles. See the Article Wizard.

Thank you.

A tag has been placed on Sheldon Robins, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page seems to be unambiguous advertising that only promotes a company, product, group, service or person and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become an acceptable page. Please read the general criteria for speedy deletion, particularly item G11, as well as the guidelines on spam.

If you can indicate why the subject of this page is not blatant advertising, . Clicking that button will take you to the talk page where you will find a pre-formatted place for you to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. You can also visit the page's talk page directly to give your reasons, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay. You are welcome to edit the page to fix this problem, but please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself. As well as removing promotional phrasing, it helps to add factual encyclopaedic information to the page, and add citations from independent reliable sources to ensure that the page will be verifiable. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. --Finngall ^talk 23:02, 5 May 2014 (UTC)

• (Copying my reply on Talk:Sheldon Robins here in case that page gets deleted before you read it there:)

  Mr. Robins may very well pass the notability standards for inclusion, but that's not why I tagged the article for deletion. The article was tagged because it looks like a copy and paste from a press release. Wikipedia is an encyclopedia, not an advertising medium or a free web host. If the article were to be rewritten with a neutral point of view with third-party references from reliable sources, it could likely stay. But if you are somehow associated with Mr. Robins, then please read the guidelines on conflict of interest as well as the other policy links I've included here. Thanks. --Finngall ^talk 23:45, 5 May 2014 (UTC)

Conflict of interest

Hello, OnlineMgr. We welcome your contributions to Wikipedia, but if you are affiliated with some of the people, places or things you have written about on Wikipedia, you may have a conflict of interest.

All editors are required to comply with Wikipedia's neutral point of view content policy. People who are very close to a subject often have a distorted view of it, which may cause them to inadvertently edit in ways that make the article either too flattering or too disparaging. People with a close connection to a subject are not absolutely prohibited from editing about that subject, but they need to be especially careful about ensuring their edits are verified by reliable sources and writing with as little bias as possible.

If you are very close to a subject, here are some ways you can reduce the risk of problems:

• Avoid or exercise great caution when editing or creating articles related to you, your organization, or its competitors, as well as projects and products they are involved with.
• Avoid linking to the Wikipedia article or website of your organization in other articles (see Wikipedia:Spam).
• Exercise great caution so that you do not accidentally breach Wikipedia's content policies.

Please familiarize yourself with relevant content policies and guidelines, especially those pertaining to neutral point of view, verifiability of information, and autobiographies.

For information on how to contribute to Wikipedia when you have a conflict of interest, please see our frequently asked questions for organizations. Thank you. Tokyogirl79 (｡◕‿◕｡) 19:36, 29 May 2014 (UTC)

• I'd probably recommend changing your username as well. The problem is that the name, combined with some of the edits, really gives off the impression that you are the online promotions manager for the Murder 101 film. Even if you are (and I'm fairly certain you are), it's usually better to go with a name that's a little more low key and doesn't automatically come across as a promotional username. In any case, if you do have a conflict of interest you should definitely divulge it up front. It doesn't mean that you can't edit, just that you need to be very careful about how you edit. A good example of what can be done with a COI is Cinephile24fps, the director of Zombeavers. He mostly just fixed minor errors with the page, updated minor information- small bits of info here and there. Other than making an article that seems to have been based off of a press release, your edits haven't been too bad, although I will say that I'm extremely worried about the coverage in the article for Murder 101. It's on my list of articles to start cleaning up, but I'll warn you: establishing coverage for unreleased films is very, very difficult because you have to essentially prove that the production itself received enough coverage to warrant an entry, something that's difficult for indie films in general. Mostly we just end up having to wait for reviews to come out. It's fairly rare that I'm able to move articles for indie films out into the mainspace before their release.

Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to add soapboxing, promotional or advertising material to Wikipedia, you may be blocked from editing. Deb (talk) 20:30, 29 May 2014 (UTC)
