Welcome!
editHello, Quettal, 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:
- The plain and simple conflict of interest guide
- The five pillars of Wikipedia
- Contributing to Wikipedia
- Tutorial
- How to edit a page and How to develop articles
- How to create your first article (using the Article Wizard if you wish)
- Simplified Manual of Style

- Hi - just to follow up on the above automated message, I wanted to give you a more personal note about why I put it there. The article currently in your sandbox comes across as rather promotional, and it is unlikely to be accepted without significant amendments. I assume from the style of writing that you have a connection with this company - perhaps you are employed by them, or know someone associated with them - in which case, you must read the WP:COI guidance. If you want to persist with writing the article, please try to adopt a more neutral, factual tone. Cheers GirthSummit (blether) 04:55, 15 August 2019 (UTC)
- Hello Blether, Thank you for your message. I'll take all this into consideration and go through the article again. Cheers Quettal (talk) 16:39, 15 August 2019 (UTC)
