Welcome to Wikipedia!

[edit]
Welcome Dr Jamie Lachman!
Hello Dr Jamie Lachman. Welcome to Wikipedia and thank you for your contributions!

I'm Cabayi, one of the other editors here, and I hope you decide to stay and help contribute to this amazing repository of knowledge.

Some pages of helpful information to get you started:
  Introduction to Wikipedia
  The five pillars of Wikipedia
  Editing tutorial
  How to edit a page
  Simplified Manual of Style
  The basics of Wikicode
  How to develop an article
  How to create an article
  Help pages
  What Wikipedia is not
Some common sense Dos and Don'ts:
  Do be bold
  Do assume good faith
  Do be civil
  Do keep cool!
  Do maintain a neutral point of view
  Don't spam
  Don't infringe copyright
  Don't edit where you have a conflict of interest
  Don't commit vandalism
  Don't get blocked
If you need further help, you can:
  Ask a question
or you can:
  Get help at the Teahouse
or even:
  Ask an experienced editor to "adopt" you

Alternatively, leave me a message at my talk page or type {{Help me}} here on your talk page and someone will try to help.

There are many ways you can contribute to Wikipedia. Here are a few ideas:
  Fight vandalism
  Be a WikiFairy or a WikiGnome
  Help contribute to articles
  Perform maintenance tasks
           
  Become a member of a project that interests you
  Help design new templates
  Subscribe and contribute to The Signpost
  Translate articles from Wikipedias in other languages

To get some practice editing you can use a sandbox. You can create your own personal sandbox for use any time. It's perfect for working on bigger projects. Then for easy access in the future, you can put {{My sandbox}} on your userpage.

Please remember to:

  • Always sign your posts on talk pages. You can do this either by clicking on the button on the edit toolbar or by typing four tildes ~~~~ at the end of your post. This will automatically insert your signature, a link to your talk page, and a timestamp.
  • Leave descriptive edit summaries for your edits. Doing so helps other editors understand what changes you have made and why you made them.
The best way to learn about something is to experience it. Explore, learn, contribute, and don't forget to have some fun!

As previously advised, your edits, such as the edit you made to Draft:Jamie Lachman, give the impression you have a financial stake in promoting a topic, but you have not complied with Wikipedia's mandatory paid editing disclosure requirements. You were asked to cease editing until you responded by either stating that you are not being directly or indirectly compensated for your edits, or by complying with the mandatory requirements under the Wikimedia Terms of Use that you disclose your employer, client and affiliation. Again, you can post such a disclosure on your user page at User:Julietm276, and the template {{Paid}} can be used for this purpose – e.g. in the form: {{paid|user=Julietm276|employer=InsertName|client=InsertName}}. Please respond before making any other edits to Wikipedia. Cabayi (talk) 11:18, 3 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hi there,
Do I just copy {{paid|user=Julietm276|employer=InsertName|client=InsertName}} with the client name in there and paste on the page somewhere.I am doing this page as part of a package to include a webpage (which has already been published) - any help on this would be appreicated Julietm276 (talk) 11:23, 3 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Yes, just paste that tag (without the nowiki wrappers), with appropriate name substitutions, on your user page. ~Anachronist (talk) 17:35, 5 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Just also to let you know I have no financial stake in this page for Dr Lachman - I am doing this as I have done a web page for him and thought I would do a Wiki page for free Julietm276 (talk) 11:24, 3 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Claiming that your payment covers the webpage but not the Wikipedia article is splitting hairs to a degree that stretches credibility. The template, without the nowiki tags, goes on your user page. I've broken the redirect which would have taken you straight from your userpage to the draft to make it easier for you. Cabayi (talk) 11:32, 3 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I believe this may now all be in order. I have declared I will be expecting a form of payment upon publication of the page Dr Jamie Lachman. What else do I now need to do in order to have this published. I believe I have made the edits you have required
(see User:Julietm276 for declaration of payment - do let me know if this is in the correct place) Julietm276 (talk) 15:04, 15 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Please see the instructions in Wikipedia:Paid-contribution disclosure#How to disclose and put the proper tag on your user page.
As a paid editor, you should never unilaterally move a draft to article space. And once it is in article space, you should refrain from making further substantive changes to it, other than minor corrections to spelling and grammar and such.
To create articles, the only venue available for editors with a conflict of interest is to create drafts and submit them for review. I have moved your article back to Draft:Jamie Lachman and added a review button at the top so you can submit the draft for review after you have addressed the WP:BLP concerns. ~Anachronist (talk) 17:32, 5 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Anachronist I was told to put down that I was being paid as I had created a website for Dr Lachman. The wiki page is not being paid for, so now at a loss as to what to do. I was hoping to have this ready for review this week before I go into hospital and then come back to any minor edits I had thought about. Should I just remove the CoI note and then submit? Julietm276 (talk) 17:38, 5 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
If you are getting paid "as part of a package", as you say, and including the Wikipedia article as part of the service, then you are considered a paid editor, even if your employer or client isn't paying you specifically to create a Wikipedia article. So yes, please put that declaration tag on your user page. I see you made a declaration, but you don't need the redirect. Just use the declaration {{paid|employer=Global Parenting Initiative|client=Jamie Lachman}}. That is really all you need. I'll do it for you now, since you've made the declaration anyway in your own way.
I advise against submitting your draft for review until you have improved it. In its current state, it would be declined. The community has a very low tolerance for WP:BLP violations. Anything you write about a living person must be verifiable by a reliable source, preferably a source that's independent of that person. And the "Early life" and "Career" sections cite no sources at all; that's unacceptable, and that's the reason it's a draft instead of an article. ~Anachronist (talk) 17:45, 5 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
