== Conflict of interest in Wikipedia ==

Since you are now starting to [[WP:REFSPAM|add references to Al-Ali's works in other articles]], I am initiating the conflict of interest discussion with you.  I work on conflict of interest issues here in Wikipedia, along with my regular editing.  I'm giving you notice of our Conflict of Interest guideline and Terms of Use, and will have some comments and requests for you below.

[[File:Information.svg|25px|alt=Information icon]] Hello, Widmun. We [[Wikipedia:Welcoming committee/Welcome to Wikipedia|welcome]] your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places, or things [[Special:Contributions/Widmun|you have written about]] on Wikipedia, you may have a [[conflict of interest]] (COI). Editors with a COI may be unduly influenced by their connection to the topic, and it is important when editing Wikipedia articles that such connections be completely transparent. See the '''[[Wikipedia:Conflict of interest|conflict of interest guideline]]''' and [[Wikipedia:FAQ/Organizations|FAQ for organizations]] for more information. In particular, we ask that you please:

*'''avoid editing or creating''' articles related to you and your family, friends, school, company, club, or organization, as well as any competing companies' projects or products;
* instead, you are encouraged to '''propose changes''' on the Talk pages of affected article(s) (see the {{tl|request edit}} template);
* when discussing affected articles, '''disclose''' your COI (see [[Wikipedia:Conflict of interest#Declaring an interest|WP:DISCLOSE]]);
*'''avoid linking''' to the Wikipedia article or to the website of your organization in other articles (see [[Wikipedia:Spam|WP:SPAM]]);
*'''exercise great caution''' so that you do not violate Wikipedia's [[Wikipedia:Core content policies|content policies]].

In addition, you '''must''' 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|WP:PAID]]).

Please take a few moments to read and review Wikipedia's policies regarding conflicts of interest, especially those pertaining to [[Wikipedia:Neutral point of view|neutral point of view]], [[Wikipedia:Verifiability|sourcing]] and [[Wikipedia:Autobiography|autobiographies]].  Thank you.<!-- THE FOLLOWING CATEGORY SHOULD BE REMOVED IF THE USER IS BLOCKED, OR IT IS DECIDED THAT THIS USER DOES NOT HAVE A COI, OR THIS TEMPLATE HAS BEEN IN PLACE FOR A WHILE WITH NO ACTION. -->{{#ifexpr: ({{CURRENTTIMESTAMP}} - 20170508203834) < 5000000000 | [[Category:User talk pages with conflict of interest notices|{{PAGENAME}}]] |  }}<!-- Template:uw-coi -->

===Comments and requests===
Wikipedia is a widely-used reference work and managing conflict of interest is essential for ensuring the integrity of Wikipedia and retaining the public's trust in it.  As in academia, COI is managed here in two steps - disclosure and a form of peer review. Please note that there is no bar to being part of the Wikipedia community if you want to be involved in articles where you have a conflict of interest; there are just some things we ask you to do (and if you are paid, some things you need to do).

Disclosure is the most important, and first, step.  While I am not asking you to disclose your identity (anonymity is strictly protecting by our [[WP:OUTING]] policy) would you please disclose if you have some connection with Al-Ali, directly or through a third party (e.g. a PR agency or the like)?  You can answer how ever you wish (giving personally identifying information or not), but if there is a ''connection'', please disclose it.  After you respond (and you can just reply below), I can walk you through how the "peer review" part happens and then, if you like, I can provide you with some more general orientation as to how this place works. Please reply here, just below, to keep the discussion in one place.  Thanks! [[User:Jytdog|Jytdog]] ([[User talk:Jytdog|talk]]) 20:38, 8 May 2017 (UTC)
:Please reply. [[User:Jytdog|Jytdog]] ([[User talk:Jytdog|talk]]) 13:54, 9 May 2017 (UTC)

:Thank you for engaging with my page. I will not beat around the bush or waste your time and mine. The honest straight answer is that I am Him....and add that I have no financial gain whatsoever out of it...I don't receive any kind of royalty from selling the books ,neither have I sold my rights to the publisher and you can make sure by asking Amazon if you have such access. Not only that but I spent many thousands of dollars on publication charges . The books prices you see go all to the publisher ( CreateSpace of Amazon) for the simple reason that I want my books to be sold cheap and within the grasp of more hands. I am sure you have by now searched me on the web and thank you for providing me with 2 more references I was unaware of and providing ISBN nos. for the others...you might find more by removing my hyphenated middle name...I think the page in its shape now requires more factual information about my DOB and  personal, degrees, urological innovations (all in journals and medical books referred to) , scientific activities, academic career and decorations, if acceptable. Regards--[[User:Widmun|Widmun]] ([[User talk:Widmun#top|talk]]) 19:23, 9 May 2017 (UTC)
::Thanks so much for your note and for your honesty.  It is delightful to have such an experienced surgeon working in Wikipedia.   I hope that when the article about you gets settled, that you will contribute to other topics where you have expertise. 

::So... per [[WP:COISELF]], you have a conflict of interest with regard to content about you in Wikipedia. 

::As I noted above, there are two pieces to COI management in WP.   The first is disclosure, which you have now initially done.  The second is a form of peer review.  This piece may seem a bit strange to you at first, but if you think about it, it will make sense.  In Wikipedia, editors can immediately publish their work, with no intervening publisher or standard peer review -- you can just create an article, click save, and voilà there is a new article, and you can go into any article, make changes, click save, and done.  No intermediary - no publisher, no "editors" as that term is used in the real world. And no author at the top of the page, so that readers know who wrote an article, and can read the article in light of who the authors are.  And likewise, no COI disclosures on a given article, as there are in scientific publications.  So the bias that conflicted editors ~tend~ to have, ''can'' go right into the article.  Conflicted editors are also really driven to try to make the article fit with their external interest.  If they edit directly, this often leads to big battles with other editors. 

:: What we ask editors to do who have a COI and want to work on articles where their COI is relevant, is:
::: a) if you want to create an article relevant to a COI you have, create the article as a draft through the [[WP:AFC]] process, disclose your COI on the Talk page, and then submit the draft article for review (the AfC process sets up a nice big button for you to click when it is ready) so it can be reviewed ''before'' it publishes; (too late for this!) and  
:::b) And if you want to change content in any existing article on a topic where you have a COI, we ask you to propose content on the Talk page for others to review and implement ''before'' it goes live, instead of doing it directly yourself, and to disclose your COI when you do that.  You can just do that simply.  "I wrote the following book, and I would like to add it to the list here."   Or "I would like to add this information about myself to the article -- what do folks think?"   Please be aware that for everything in Wikipedia -- especially for biographies of living people, must be sourced to a reliable source, and that source needs to be cited.  Please see [[WP:RS]] for the definition of "reliable source" for most topics, and [[WP:MEDRS]] for the definition of "reliable source" for anything about health.  Please also see [[WP:BLP]] which is the policy governing articles about living people. 

::By following those "peer review" processes, editors with a COI can contribute where they have a COI,  and the integrity of WP can be protected. We get some great contributions that way, when conflicted editors take the time to understand what kinds of proposals are OK under the content policies. (which I will say more about, if you want).

::I hope that makes sense to you. 

::I want to add here that per the [[WP:COI]] guideline, if you want to directly update simple, uncontroversial ''facts'' (for example, correcting the facts about your date of birth) you can do that directly in the article, without making an edit request on the Talk page.  Just be sure to always cite a reliable source for the information you change, and make sure it is simple, factual, uncontroversial content.   If you are not sure if something is uncontroversial, please ask at the Talk page. 

::Will you please agree to follow the peer review processes going forward, when you want to work on the article about you or any article where your COI is relevant?  Do let me know, and if anything above doesn't make sense I would be happy to discuss.  And if you want me to quickly go over the content policies, I can do that. Just let me know.  Thanks! [[User:Jytdog|Jytdog]] ([[User talk:Jytdog|talk]])

:::Thank you for your comprehensive discussion which is enviable. Expanding my activity on Wikipedia at this time is not on my schedule, but I might in the future. You might have noticed that I created many pages in English and Arabic over the last 8 yrs. or so. You appreciate that I have other duties to comply with, full up to my brows. For the time being I only want my page to get through with your help, you seem to be more dedicated to Wikipedia than myself. Regards --[[User:Widmun|Widmun]] ([[User talk:Widmun#top|talk]]) 21:13, 9 May 2017 (UTC)
:::::That is fine of course.  22:09, 9 May 2017 (UTC)

== indenting and signing ==

Quick note on the logistics of discussing things on Talk pages, which are essential for everything that happens here. 

In Talk page discussions, we "thread" comments by indenting - when you reply to someone, you put a colon <nowiki>":"</nowiki> in ''front'' of your comment, and the WP software converts that into an indent; if the other person has indented once, then you indent twice by putting two colons <nowiki>"::"</nowiki> which the WP software converts into two indents, and when that gets ridiculous you reset back to the margin (or "outdent") by putting this <nowiki>{{od}}</nowiki> in front of your comment. This also allows you to make it clear if you are ''also'' responding to something that someone else responded to if there are more than two people in the discussion; in that case you would indent the same amount as the person just above you in the thread.  I hope that all makes sense. 

And at the ''end'' of the comment, please "sign" by typing exactly four (not 3 or 5) tildas <nowiki>"~~~~"</nowiki> which the WP software converts into a date stamp and links to your talk and user pages.  That is how we know who said what.  I know this is insanely archaic and unwieldy, but this is the software environment we have to work on. Sorry about that. 

And you don't need to notify me on my talk page. This page is on my [[WP:Watchlist]] so I can see when you (or anybody) writes something here. [[User:Jytdog|Jytdog]] ([[User talk:Jytdog|talk]]) 22:09, 9 May 2017 (UTC)

:Hi [[User:Jytdog|Jytdog]] ([[User talk:Jytdog|talk]]) ...What is next ...How do I proceed from here--[[User:Widmun|Widmun]] ([[User talk:Widmun#top|talk]]) 23:18, 11 May 2017 (UTC)
::?? I replied to the same message you left at my talk page already, [https://en.wikipedia.org/enwiki/w/index.php?title=User_talk%3AJytdog&type=revision&diff=779696244&oldid=779695407 here].  You do not seem to have actually taken the time to read the message [https://en.wikipedia.org/enwiki/w/index.php?title=User_talk%3AWidmun&type=revision&diff=779588462&oldid=779582261 above], which describes exactly how you can proceed. This is simply disrespectful. [[User:Jytdog|Jytdog]] ([[User talk:Jytdog|talk]]) 02:19, 12 May 2017 (UTC)

===draft===
::::Sorry that you felt this way , something I didn't intend...but the reason is perhaps that I have hurriedly read your earlier comment of 9 May. and missed its valuable information.
Below is a revised manuscript of the page, by adding factual information about my career, for your kind attention:

[[File:Information.svg|25px|alt=Information icon]] Hello, and thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. This is just a note to let you know that I've moved the draft that you were working on to [[:Draft:Muneer Al-Ali]], from its old location at {{no redirect|User:Widmun/Muneer Al-Ali}}. This has been done because the [[WP:DRAFTS|Draft namespace]] is the preferred location for [[WP:AFC|Articles for Creation]] submissions. Please feel free to continue to work on it there. If you have any questions about this, you are welcome to ask me on [[User talk:KGirlTrucker81|my talk page]]. Thank you. <!-- Template:uw-draftmoved --> [[User:KGirlTrucker81|<span style="background-color:pink; color: purple">'''KGirlTrucker81'''</span>]]<sup> [[User talk:KGirlTrucker81|<span style= "color:purple">huh?</span>]] [[Special:Contributions/KGirlTrucker81|what I've been doing]]</sup> 20:54, 13 May 2017 (UTC)

== [[Wikipedia:Proposed deletion|Proposed deletion]] of [[Muneer Al-Ali]] ==

<!--<includeonly>}}</includeonly>-->
Hello, Widmun. I wanted to let you know that I’m proposing an article that you started, [[Muneer Al-Ali]], for deletion because I don't think it meets our criteria for inclusion. If you don't want the article deleted:

# [http://en.wikipedia.org/enwiki/w/index.php?title={{urlencode:Muneer Al-Ali}}&action=edit edit the page]
# remove the text that looks like this: {{tlc|proposed deletion/dated...}} 
# save the page

Also, ''be sure to explain why'' you think the article should be kept in your edit summary or on [[Talk:Muneer Al-Ali|the article's talk page]].  If you don't do so, it may be deleted later anyway. 

You can leave a note on [[User_talk:Kudpung|my talk page]] if you have questions.

== Unblock ==

{{unblock reviewed | 1=Sorry that I didn't comply with the regulations....It wasn't a planned act but a rather desperate one...because I have modified and changed the disputed page several times to no avail and deleted with a blanket statement which fits everything ,without indicating a specific requirement ,and I have been deliberately and unrelentingly pursued by an administrator called Jytdog...I am sure so many editors give similar reasons but you have your ways of investigating this.... | decline = You were not "deliberately and unrelentingly pursued" by an admin. Your edits violated our rules, and then you were caught creating a sock account to get around these rules. You've admitted that this was done as a "desperate" move.

Jytdog.... today you have added revised versions of my talk page....and of the disputed page...I couldn't notice any appreciable difference....What is that supposed to mean ?[[User:Widmun|Widmun]] ([[User talk:Widmun#top|talk]]) 18:52, 14 July 2017 (UTC)
:I just fixed some formatting so your draft article is one subsection instead of being several main sections (one can now link to the whole thing like this: [[User_talk:Widmun#draft]]).  btw, comments about "cultural terrorism" do not help you get unblocked.  You have been [[WP:DISRUPTIVE]] (a technical term here) -- you socked and edit warred to try to get your autobiography in published in WP.  You have now, in addition to that, accused the community of terrorism.  It is very unlikely anyone is going to unblock you until you acknowledge what you have done wrong and promise to stop.  And if you continue writing foolish things here, your talk page access will be revoked as well. [[User:Jytdog|Jytdog]] ([[User talk:Jytdog|talk]]) 19:27, 14 July 2017 (UTC)

:::I am sorry you are disappointed.  It is not clear to me that the community made the correct decision in deleting the article about you and I am exploring ways to fix that, but your behavior has been dishonorable and you have only yourself to blame for that.
