editHello, I'm Philipnelson99. I wanted to let you know that one of your recent contributions—specifically this edit to Drinking culture—has been undone because it appeared to be promotional. Advertising and using Wikipedia as a "soapbox" are against Wikipedia policy and not permitted; Wikipedia articles should be written objectively, using independent sources, and from a neutral perspective. Please take a look at the welcome page to learn more about Wikipedia. If you have any questions, you can ask for assistance at the Help desk. Thank you.

editThank you for declaring your conflict of interest. That doesn't mean you can write what you like, you must follow the guidance below:
- When you write about a person, you must provide independent verifiable sources to enable us to verify the facts and show that they meet the notability guidelines. Sources that are not acceptable include those linked to the person or an associated organisation, press releases, YouTube, IMDB, social media and other sites that can be self-edited, blogs, websites of unknown or non-reliable provenance, and sites that are just reporting what the person claims or interviewing them. Note that references should be in-line so we can tell what fact each is supporting, and should not be bare urls.
- Much of your text, including mearly all the claimed awards and fellowships, is unsourced. The sources you do give include interviews with her, her own CV, or pages sourced to her own university where she presumably has input into their content. We don't need to know what she says about herself, we need independent third-party sources, especially if you make claims like "highest honors".
- You must write in a non-promotional tone. Articles must be neutral and encyclopaedic, with verifiable facts, not opinions or reviews.
- source for your "keynote speaker" says "other speakers", and the "They are currently working on a book about America’s long obsession with Indian spirituality... " section is her talking about her own book.
- There shouldn't be any url links in the article, only in the "References" or "External links" sections.
- You must not copy text from elsewhere. Copyrighted text is not allowed in Wikipedia, as outlined in this policy. That applies even to pages created by you or your organisation, unless they state clearly and explicitly that the text is public domain. We require that text posted here can be used, modified and distributed for any purpose, including commercial; text is considered to be copyright unless explicitly stated otherwise. There are ways to donate copyrighted text to Wikipedia, as described here; please note that simply asserting on the talk page that you are the owner of the copyright, or you have permission to use the text, isn't sufficient.
- Your text was a substantial copy of her cv. Copyright violations cannot be restored
Before attempting to write an article again, please make sure that the topic meets the notability criteria linked above, and check that you can find independent third party sources. Jimfbleak - talk to me? 09:06, 15 January 2024 (UTC)
- Not reason for deletion, but "Referred articles" should be "Refereed articles" Jimfbleak - talk to me? 09:16, 15 January 2024 (UTC)
