'''Welcome!''' |
|||
Hello, Science 2.0, and '''[[Wikipedia:Welcome, newcomers|welcome to Wikipedia]]'''! Thank you for [[Special:Contributions/Science 2.0|your contributions]]. |
|||
I notice that one of the first articles you edited appears to be dealing with a topic with which you may have a [[WP:COI|conflict of interest]]. In other words, you may find it difficult to write about that topic in a [[WP:NPOV|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 any other editor to proofread it. See [[Help:Userspace draft|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 [[:Category:Wikipedia administrators who will provide copies of deleted articles|anyone from this list]] and they will copy it to your user page. |
|||
The one firm rule we do have in connection with conflicts of interest is that accounts used by more than one person will unfortunately [[WP:NOSHARE|be blocked from editing]]. It is also worth noting that Wikipedia generally does not allow editors to have [[Wikipedia:Username policy|usernames which specifically link them to one company or corporation]]. If you have a username like this, you should [[Wikipedia:Changing username|request a change of username]] or create a new account. |
|||
If you are stuck, and looking for help, please come to the '''[[Wikipedia:New contributors' help page|New contributors' help page]]''', where experienced Wikipedians can answer any queries you have! You can also just type '''<code>{{tl|helpme}}</code>''' on your user page, and someone will show up shortly to answer your questions. Here are a few other good links for newcomers: |

Editing Science 2.0
Please make sure when adding to Science 2.0 it is actually Science 2.0-related and not just jargon or marketing. If you wouldn't try to take over Google or Facebook's page on Wikipedia please don't do it anywhere. Wikipedia is an information source and not a marketing tool.
