Your submission at Articles for creation: sandbox (June 15)

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

The comment the reviewer left was:

This still reads rather too much like a promotional piece. Please format the references correctly - no 'bare' URLs (see WP:REFB); please note that bolding and external links within the text are not SoP. ee WP:UGC in respect of sources such as LinkedIn & also WP:TECHCRUNCH.

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 after they have been resolved.

If you would like to continue working on the submission, go to User:Blackbook Agency/sandbox 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 User:Blackbook Agency/sandbox, click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window, add "{{Db-g7}}" at the top of the draft text and click the blue "publish changes" button to save this edit.
If you do not make any further changes to your draft in the next 6 months, it will be considered abandoned and may be deleted.
If you need any assistance, or have experienced any untoward behavior associated with this submission, you can ask for help at the Articles for creation help desk, on the reviewer's talk page or use Wikipedia's real-time chat help from experienced editors.

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

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.

The comment the reviewer left was:

Far too promotional; riddled with peacockery like 'well-known', 'successful', 'unwavering focus on premium quality', 'exquisite', etc. Dial down the adulation by at least 90% before resubmitting.

Many of the sources cited are non-RS. Also, the lead paragraph appears more or less verbatim in many of them, indicating that they are based on the same PR blurb issued by the subject or their representatives.

Unless this is significantly improved, next time it may be rejected outright and possibly deleted.

Managing a conflict of interest

Hello, Blackbook Agency. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about on the page User:Blackbook Agency/sandbox, 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 Wikipedia:Spam#External link spamming);
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. You need to disclose any relationship you may have with Gilad Shabtai. Please do this before resubmitting the draft. Thank you. -- DoubleGrazing (talk) 10:30, 15 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

June 2022

Your account has been blocked from editing Wikipedia because your username, Blackbook Agency, does not meet our username policy. Your username is the principal reason for the block. You are welcome to continue editing after you have selected a new username that meets the username policy guidelines, which are summarized below.

Per the username policy, a username should represent an individual and should not: represent a group or organization; be promotional; be misleading (such as indicating possession of special user rights or being a "Bot" account (unless approved for such purposes)); be offensive or otherwise disruptive. However, a username that contains the name of a organization and also identifies you individually, such as "Sara Smith at XYZ Company", "Mark at WidgetsUSA", or "FoobarFan87" is allowed, though, among others, the guidance on conflict of interest and the policy of paid-contribution disclosure are relevant.

You are encouraged to choose a new account name that meets our username policy guidelines and create the account yourself. Alternatively, if you wish for your existing contributions to carry over under a new name, then you may request a change in username by:

Adding {{unblock-un|your new username here}} below. You should be able to do this even though you are blocked. If not, you may wish to contact the blocking administrator by clicking on "Email this user" from their talk page.
At an administrator's discretion, you may be unblocked for 24 hours to file a change of name request.
Your requested new username cannot already be in use. Therefore, please check the list here to see if a name is taken prior to requesting a change of name.

Appeals: If, after reading the guide to appealing blocks you believe you were blocked in error, then you may appeal this block by adding {{unblock|Your reason here}} below this notice. Orange Mike | Talk 12:36, 15 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

This user's request to be unblocked to request a change in username has been reviewed by an administrator, who accepted the request.

I have renamed your account and I will remove the block. 331dot (talk) 13:08, 15 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Blackbook Agency (talk) 12:52, 15 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I'm prepared to rename and unblock you, but do you understand that per WP:PAID you must declare any paid relationship with the subject of your edits? 331dot (talk) 13:01, 15 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

yes, Gilad is my client Blackbook Agency (talk) 13:04, 15 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

That's not sufficient. Please see How to disclose. --Orange Mike | Talk 15:02, 15 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

{{connected contributor (paid)}} Eleftheria Vos (talk) 07:08, 16 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, that is the correct template to use to make your disclosure. You must place it on your user page without the "nowiki" tags which serve to suppress its proper display. 331dot (talk) 11:59, 16 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I added it, but it says {{Connected contributor (paid)}} should only be used on talk pages. Eleftheria Vos (talk) 12:50, 16 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

You're right; Mike got the template wrong. The template you want to use is {{UserboxCOI}}, as in {{UserboxCOI|Blackbook Agency}}. {{Connected contributor (paid)}} goes on the talk page of the article or draft. I've fixed it for you. SWinxy (talk) 17:05, 13 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]
