User talk:Ctorella

The article Pickerel Pie Entertainment has been speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article seems to be blatant advertising which only promotes a company, product, group or service and which would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become an encyclopedia article. Please read the general criteria for speedy deletion, particularly item 11, as well as the guidelines on spam. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this.

Hello, and thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. This is just a note to let you know that I've moved the draft that you were working on to Draft:Streetsound, from its old location at User:Ctorella/sandbox. This has been done because the Draft namespace is the preferred location for Articles for Creation submissions. Please feel free to continue to work on it there. If you have any questions about this, you are welcome to ask me on my talk page. Thank you. Nathan2055^{talk - contribs} 20:31, 22 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

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

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:

Needs more external news sources about the magazine. Also full of name drops that need to be cleaned up.

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:Streetsound 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:Streetsound, 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 6 months, it will be considered abandoned and may be deleted.
• If you need any assistance, 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.

A tag has been placed on Streetsound requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page appears to be an unambiguous copyright infringement. This page appears to be a direct copy from https://streetsoundmagzine.com/history. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images taken from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. You may use external websites or other printed material as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. This part is crucial: say it in your own words. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.

If the external website or image belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text or image — which means allowing other people to use it for any reason — then you must verify that externally by one of the processes explained at Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials. The same holds if you are not the owner but have their permission. If you are not the owner and do not have permission, see Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission for how you may obtain it. You might want to look at Wikipedia's copyright policy for more details, or ask a question here.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.

This is now listed at Wikipedia:Copyright problems/2020 November 21. The external page is clearly marked "lastUpdateDate": "2020-08-04T13:43:13.406Z", so predates the Wikipedia page. You should probably go ahead and make an appropriate conflict-of-interest disclosure. Thanks, Justlettersandnumbers (talk) 22:16, 21 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

hey thanks for getting back so quickly..I'm not sure i entirely understand your point about the external site predating the WP. My first draft of the article was in August and that was the one i posted on the external site. If i have taken down the external page, I'm not sure i see the issue. Either way I'll try and work through it with the copyright folks Noted about the COI form as well.. thanks, I'm just a little frustrated since i feel like I've done nothing outside the spirt of WP rules. It was never clear that my article would be approved, and i didn't ever get a chance to address the issue, before my article was deleted. Chris Chris Torella Ctorella 23:01, 21 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I don't recall tagging Streetsound for deletion, the logs show Onel5969 nominated it for deletion, and it hasn't been deleted yet, at least not under that name, so I don't know why you are asking me. However, you have an obvious conflict of interest which you must declare. You are required by the Wikimedia Terms of Use to post on your main user page at user:Ctorella, the following, duly completed. {{paid|user=Ctorella|employer=''InsertName''|client=''InsertName''}}}Note that editing with a COI is discouraged, but permitted as long as it is declared. Concealing a COI can lead to a block. Please do not edit further until you respond to this message. Also, please remove the self-promotion from your user page Jimfbleak - talk to me? 11:13, 22 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Sorry for the confusion I misspoke about you being the source for the deletion... I have updated my talk page with the COI (since I was not paid I used the non-paid COI. I also added some background and context (hopefully that allowed?). I've also revised the self-promoting language from my talk page (thanks for pointing that out. I appreciate the guidance. Chris Chris Torella Ctorella 13:33, 22 November 2020 (UTC) Update - I've also added a section to the talk page of streetsound to address the copyright flagging.

Please do not introduce links in actual articles to user pages or sandboxes, as you did at Pseudo.com. Since these pages have not been accepted as articles, user pages, sandboxes and drafts are not suitable for linking in articles. and such links are contrary to the Manual of Style. These links have been deleted, please do not re-add any such links, thank you - Arjayay (talk) 10:55, 23 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
