Advertising
editHi there, though I do greatly appreciate that you declared yourself a paid editor on your user page, you are still subject to Wikipedia community rules, like for instance, you shouldn't be here to engage in advertising. The article OurDemocracy looks like an advertisement and you haven't properly established the subject's notability, which would be crucial if you expect this article to stick around. See our General Notability Guideline as well as our guidelines for corporations found at WP:NCORP. You are going to need to show us that there are multiple reliable sources who speak about this company in depth, rather than just as passing mentions, like this. If you can't do that, the article will almost certainly get deleted. Frankly, it could get deleted right now for being unambiguous advertising, but I'm going to do you a favor and move it back into draft space so you can work on it.
Additionally, there were problems with some of your edits, which I have had to revert. These changes[1][2][3][4] seemingly have no place in biographical articles, and just come across as promotional. Again, if you are a paid editor, that's one thing, but if you are actively polluting articles with promotional content, that is not okay. And you would still have to declare your paid relationship with these subjects, if you are linked to them. Thank you, Cyphoidbomb (talk) 14:39, 23 April 2019 (UTC)
Warning
editDo not move Draft:OurDemocracy back to live space until you resolve the issues I've detailed above. Advertising won't be tolerated, and I have no qualms about blacklisting companies that engage in this behavior or blocking the users who engage in this behavior.

DO NOT COPY
editDO NOT COPY is a basic concept in academia. The content you added in these edits (which only administrators will be able to see) at Draft:OurDemocracy was copied from the organisation's website. This is unacceptable. Copying is intellectually dishonest and lazy, and constitutes intellectual theft. While quoting may be a legitimate use of someone else's materials, you need to understand those basic rules, like that only small excerpts may be used, and that we may not base large portions of an article on someone else's content. See MOS:QUOTE and WP:NOFULLTEXT and WP:COPYRIGHT. What you did, copying large swaths of content from their website is not covered under fair use, even if you provide references, which you did. copyright violations will not be tolerated at Wikipedia, so consider this your only warning on the matter. And also consider this your last warning about using Wikipedia for advertising purposes. We are not here to act as mouthpieces for this company's promotional department. If you can't write objectively about the subject without promoting it, then maybe you shouldn't be editing at Wikipedia. Cyphoidbomb (talk) 15:15, 3 May 2019 (UTC)
