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

This submission's references do not adequately show the subject's notability. Wikipedia requires significant coverage about the subject in reliable sources that are independent of the subject—see the general guideline on notability and the golden rule. Please improve the submission's referencing (see Wikipedia:Referencing for beginners), so that the information is verifiable, and there is clear evidence of why the subject is notable and worthy of inclusion in an encyclopedia. If additional reliable sources cannot be found for the subject, then it may not be suitable for Wikipedia at this time.

 The comment the reviewer left was:

The only references appear to be the vendor's own, and so are not independent and do not establish notability.

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:LAI4D and click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window.
• If you need any assistance, you can ask for help at the Articles for creation help desk or on the reviewer's talk page.
• You can also use Wikipedia's real-time chat help from experienced editors.

Hello! Jahurtado, I noticed your article was declined at Articles for Creation, and that can be disappointing. If you are wondering why your article submission was declined, please post a question at the Articles for creation help desk. If you have any other questions about your editing experience, we'd love to help you at the Teahouse, a friendly space on Wikipedia where experienced editors lend a hand to help new editors like yourself! See you there! Robert McClenon (talk) 00:34, 11 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, Jahurtado. 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 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 conflict of interest guideline and 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 {{request edit}} template);
• when discussing affected articles, disclose your COI (see WP:DISCLOSE);
• avoid linking to the Wikipedia article or to the website of your organization in other articles (see WP:SPAM);
• exercise great caution so that you do not violate Wikipedia's content policies.

In addition, you must disclose your employer, client, and affiliation with respect to any contribution for which you receive, or expect to receive, compensation (see WP:PAID).

Please take a few moments to read and review Wikipedia's policies regarding conflicts of interest, especially those pertaining to neutral point of view, sourcing and autobiographies. Thank you. ~Anachronist (talk) 07:08, 7 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Please do not add inappropriate external links to Wikipedia. Wikipedia is not a collection of links, nor should it be used for advertising or promotion. Inappropriate links include, but are not limited to, links to personal websites, links to websites with which you are affiliated (whether as a link in article text, or a citation in an article), and links that attract visitors to a website or promote a product. See the external links guideline and spam guideline for further explanations. Because Wikipedia uses the nofollow attribute value, its external links are disregarded by most search engines. If you feel the link should be added to the page, please discuss it on the associated talk page rather than re-adding it. Thank you. ~Anachronist (talk) 07:08, 7 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Hello Anachronist. I have to say you are absolutely right about my COI. Apart from that, the truth is I intend to provide only relevant content to the topics I edit. I suppose you have marked the links as inappropriate because of my COI and not for other reason.

To lose the direct links to the online 3D models is a pity. To facilitate the access to this relatively novel technology of 3D on the web was my real intention. I'm not going to re-add the links, I respect the work of the “controllers” who make Wikipedia a more “objective” place. If you want to reconsider the deletion of those links, perfect because my contributions without them are of little use.--Jahurtado (talk) 09:49, 7 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

It looked to me, based on your contribution history, that your objective here is to link out to your website rather than providing any relevant content to articles. We value actual content more than links.

Wikipedia emphatically does not exist "to facilitate the access" to any web site. Wikipedia functions as an index or directory of its own content rather than external content. Internal Wikilinks between articles are preferable. Believe me, yours weren't the only ones I removed. Wikipedia can exist just fine without any external links at all.

There are a some approaches you can take:

1. The images you provided don't include any links at all on the image pages! You can add a link to each image page you created. That way anyone who clicks on an image can see where it came from. As an example, I did this for you at File:Lai4d 3D fantasy fish.jpg, in which I added two links to the information template.

2. Because you shouldn't add your own links to articles, instead suggest a link on the talk page and let it go; just let others decide whether to add it.

3. If a subject is notable, then the best approach is to write an article about it and include an external link in that article. I see that you created Draft:LAI4D some time ago. That's a good move — draft space and WP:AFC is really the only viable venue for someone with a conflict of interest to get an article published. If you could get a couple of citations to reliable-source coverage of LAI4D into that draft (see Wikipedia:Golden rule for guidance), then the article might be acceptable in main article space.

If it does someday make it into main article space, I have already converted the external links I found to internal links to the article LAI4D, and all those links will automatically start working once the article exists, which will increase the discoverability of that article. ~Anachronist (talk) 04:52, 8 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks Anachronist. I will follow your advice.--Jahurtado (talk) 13:30, 8 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]
