List of COPRA enemies moved to draftspace

An article you recently created, List of COPRA enemies, has mostly primary sources and no reliable sources as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. (?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of "Draft:" before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please follow the confirms on the Articles for Creation template atop the page.

Note on adding unsourced content

Hey, I'm Z0. I noticed that you added content to an article but didn't provide a reliable source. You should cite a reliable source for all of your edits so that they can be verified. In Wikipedia, verifiability means that other people using the encyclopedia can check that the information comes from a reliable source. Adding unsourced content contravenes Wikipedia's policy on verifiability. If you need guidance on referencing, please see the referencing for beginners tutorial.

Wikipedia does not publish original research, which refers to material—such as facts, allegations, ideas, and personal experiences—for which no reliable, published sources exist. Its content is determined by previously published information rather than the beliefs or experiences of its editors. Even if you're sure something is true, it must be verifiable before you can add it. The verifiability policy requires inline citations for any material challenged or likely to be challenged, and for all quotations, anywhere in article space. Articles should be based on reliable and published sources (see Wikipedia:Neutral point of view) and if no reliable sources can be found on a topic, Wikipedia should not have an article on it.

Please review the guidelines at Wikipedia:Citing sources and take this opportunity to add references to the article. The editor whose username is Z0 10:06, 12 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that you've added some links pointing to disambiguation pages. Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)

Your draft article, Draft:List of COPRA agents

Hello, Ubiquitouslarry. It has been over six months since you last edited the Articles for Creation submission or Draft page you started, "List of COPRA agents".

In accordance with our policy that Wikipedia is not for the indefinite hosting of material deemed unsuitable for the encyclopedia mainspace, the draft has been nominated for deletion. If you plan on working on it further, or editing it to address the issues raised if it was declined, simply edit the submission and remove the {{db-afc}}, {{db-draft}}, or {{db-g13}} code.

If your submission has already been deleted by the time you get there, and you wish to retrieve it, you can request its undeletion by following the instructions at this link. An administrator will, in most cases, restore the submission so you can continue to work on it.

Thanks for your submission to Wikipedia, and happy editing. JMHamo (talk) 19:24, 17 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

File:Late Life theatrical poster.jpg

Hi, I'm RonBot, a script that checks new non-free file uploads. I have found that the subject image that you recently uploaded was more than 5% in excess of the Non-free content guideline size of 100,000 pixels. I have tagged the image for a standard reduction, which (for jpg/gif/png/svg files) normally happens within a day. Please check the reduced image, and make sure that the image is not excessively corrupted. Other files will be added to Category:Wikipedia non-free file size reduction requests for manual processing. There is a full seven-day period before the original oversized image will be hidden; during that time you might want to consider editing the original image yourself (perhaps an initial crop to allow a smaller reduction or none at all). A formula for the calculation of the desired size can be found at WP:Image resolution, along with instructions on how to tag the image in the rare cases that it requires an oversized image (typically about 0.2% of non-free uploads are tagged as necessarily oversized). Please contact the bot owner if you have any questions, or you can ask them at Wikipedia talk:Non-free content. See User:RonBot for info on how to not get these messages.

Your submission at Articles for creation: Frank W Chen (director) (July 16)

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed! Unfortunately, it has not been accepted because it included copyrighted content, which is not permitted on Wikipedia.

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed! Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reason left by CaptainEek was:

This submission appears to read more like an advertisement than an entry in an encyclopedia. Encyclopedia articles need to be written from a neutral point of view, and should refer to a range of independent, reliable, published sources, not just to materials produced by the creator of the subject being discussed. This is important so that the article can meet Wikipedia's verifiability policy and the notability of the subject can be established. If you still feel that this subject is worthy of inclusion in Wikipedia, please rewrite your submission to comply with these policies.

Please check the submission for any additional comments left by the reviewer. You are encouraged to edit the submission to address the issues raised and resubmit when they have been resolved.

If you would like to continue working on the submission, go to Draft:Somos Group and click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window.
If you now believe the draft cannot meet Wikipedia's standards or do not wish to progress it further, you may request deletion. Please go to Draft:Somos Group, click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window, add "{{db-self}}" at the top of the draft text and click the blue "publish changes" button to save this edit.

Editing with a possible conflict of interest

Hello, Ubiquitouslarry. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about on Wikipedia, you may have a conflict of interest (COI). Editors with a conflict of interest may be unduly influenced by their connection to the topic. See the conflict of interest guideline and FAQ for organizations for more information. We ask that you:

avoid editing or creating articles about yourself, your family, friends, colleagues, company, organization or competitors;
propose changes on the talk pages of affected articles (you can use the {{request edit}} template);
disclose your conflict of interest when discussing affected articles (see Wikipedia:Conflict of interest#How to disclose a COI);
avoid linking to your organization's website in other articles (see WP:Spam);
do your best to comply with Wikipedia's content policies.

In addition, you are required by the Wikimedia Foundation's terms of use to 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.

Also, editing for the purpose of advertising, publicising, or promoting anyone or anything is not permitted. Thank you.--SamHolt6 (talk) 02:37, 12 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

In addition the the inquest above, also see WP:PAID. SamHolt6 (talk) 02:38, 12 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Hey, SamHolt6. I am not writing articles about my family, friends, colleagues, company, organization or competitors. I do not have an organization with which I am affiliated that has a Wikipedia page. So linking is not an issue. I am doing my best to comply with Wikipedia content policies. Ubiquitouslarry (talk) 00:30, 14 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

In addition, I have updated my talk page to properly identify my paid work on Wikipedia. Ubiquitouslarry (talk) 07:17, 14 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed! Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reason left by MurielMary was:

Orphaned non-free image File:Logo-black.png

⚠

Thanks for uploading File:Logo-black.png. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

paid editing and reviews

Thank you for disclosing however I find your self-publishing/reviewing of articles for which you are paid to write to be quite problematic. In at least two recent instances, you've gone around an AFC review that declined your article (one several times) and published it anyway, subverting any attempts to get a second set of non-COI edits on it. While AFC isn't explicitly required it is generally expected of paid editors to allow reviews. Praxidicae (talk) 19:21, 13 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Praxidicae It is not my intention to circumvent the review process entirely. But as you say, it is optional. The articles in question were declined. But they were also amended and have been sitting in review for a number of months with no activity. I also know that editors such as yourself will let me know if an article isn't up to standards. Ubiquitouslarry (talk) 22:50, 13 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]

And as a more specific example this is so heavily ref-bombed with sources that say virtually nothing about the subject, it's impossible to parse for what should actually be in the article. It very much would have benefited from an actual review and I'd strongly suggest you move it back to draft space. Praxidicae (talk) 19:24, 13 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Praxidicae “Ref-bombing” is an intresting term. However, it is not my intention to throw random references at a wall to see what sticks. And it is not my strategy to gain credibility through obfuscation. The references I cited were to either to confirm statements or add background to subjects that are tangental to the main article. Ubiquitouslarry (talk) 22:50, 13 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Praxidicae Forwarding Somos Group to Venevisión is misleading. Somos Group severed ties with Venevisión’s parent company, Cisneros Media, in 2009. I am happy to pull the Somos Group article back into draft. Ubiquitouslarry (talk) 22:50, 13 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]

This submission is not adequately supported by reliable sources. Reliable sources are required so that information can be verified. If you need help with referencing, please see Referencing for beginners and Citing sources.

Like I've said elsewhere, this too is heavily ref-bombed with tangentially related sources. He'd probably be notable if he were the attorney of the Boston bombers but not their roommates which strikes me as super WP:COATRACKy.
