Hello, Thederekjohnson!
Having an article declined at Articles for Creation 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! Legacypac (talk) 01:56, 4 June 2018 (UTC)

Hello. This is a message to let you know that one or more of your recent contributions, such as the edit you made to Draft:Ed Rush (author), did not appear constructive and has been reverted. Please take some time to familiarise yourself with our policies and guidelines. You can find information about these at our welcome page which also provides further information about contributing constructively to this encyclopedia. If you only meant to make test edits, please use the sandbox for that. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you may leave a message on my talk page. Do not move drafts before they are accepted. » Shadowowl | talk 11:39, 22 June 2018 (UTC)
Hi Thederekjohnson. I have returned this to draftspace as it does not establish notability against WP:ACTOR or WP:AUTHOR (or WP:NFOOTY, or really WP:NCOLLATH). Would you please read WP:COI and WP:PAID before editing further and make any necessary declarations if applicable. For WP:AUTHOR to apply, there would need to be significant critical coverage of his works in independent reliable sources. Some of the guidelines at WP:CORP are broadly applicable to public speakers (particularly with respect to sourcing). If you move it back to mainspace without showing notability, it'll be heading to Articles for deletion. The same applies to Draft:Ed Rush (author). ~Hydronium~Hydroxide~(Talk)~ 01:21, 1 July 2018 (UTC)
Thanks for creating True Tamplin, Thederekjohnson!
Wikipedia editor Doomsdayer520 just reviewed your page, and wrote this note for you:
Thanks for your new article on True Tamplin, but note that some other editors have pointed out problems with the article that could lead to significant downsizing or even deletion by the community. The article needs less promotion and much more information (if any) on Tamplin getting noticed by independent media sources.
To reply, leave a comment on Doomsdayer520's talk page.
Learn more about page curation.

Hi. I have reviewed your contributions to True Tamplin article and would like to warn you about a potential conflict of interest related to it. 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. See the conflict of interest guideline and FAQ for organizations for more information. We ask that you:
In addition, you must 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 WP:PAID). Also please note that editing for the purpose of advertising, publicising, or promoting anyone or anything is not permitted.
I've reported your edits to the Conflict of Interest Noticeboard. Please be prepared to explain your edits. -- Bbarmadillo (talk) 19:07, 7 September 2018 (UTC)
A discussion is taking place as to whether the article True Tamplin is suitable for inclusion in Wikipedia according to Wikipedia's policies and guidelines or whether it should be deleted.
The article will be discussed at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/True Tamplin until a consensus is reached, and anyone, including you, is welcome to contribute to the discussion. The nomination will explain the policies and guidelines which are of concern. The discussion focuses on high-quality evidence and our policies and guidelines.
Users may edit the article during the discussion, including to improve the article to address concerns raised in the discussion. However, do not remove the article-for-deletion notice from the top of the article. Bbarmadillo (talk) 06:08, 8 September 2018 (UTC)
Thank you for clarifying the question around a potential WP:COI. Just a brief response, but you said that "the Wikipedia community, by and large, do not help nor welcome new contributors attempting to join the community by making quality edits and pages."
Cheers, Melcous (talk) 23:12, 9 September 2018 (UTC)
Hello, Thederekjohnson. It has been over six months since you last edited the Articles for Creation submission or Draft page you started, "Ed Rush".
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 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. ―Abelmoschus Esculentus (talk • contribs) 11:42, 26 February 2019 (UTC)
On a different, lighter note, you asked for adoption. I can adopt you if you would like, but it seems like you'd just like some advice for starters. To help me help you, can you answer a few questions?
Smooth sailing, Captain Eek Edits Ho Cap'n!⚓ 04:46, 12 January 2020 (UTC)
Hello @CaptainEek: It's great to hear back from you. Hope the weekend treated you well. You are accurate in your inclination to think that I am not sure about adoption at this stage, but certainly out to seek some advice in my stage of learning. So let me get on to answering your questions.
I do hope these suffice as proper responses to your original questions. Thank you for giving me the pedestal to voice my heart behind my endeavor.
// On a sidenote, how should one handle the situation that unfolded above? I have gone ahead and removed that users contribution to my Talk page, but I was curious to see what standard and best practices might be in those instances? Thederekjohnson (talk) 04:16, 14 January 2020 (UTC)

Hello again, @CaptainEek:
Thanks for your very thorough and informative response.
Of course. Here is the link to the page in question.
On that note of new pages and the question of Notability, do you say that creating pages from scratch is difficult in that way solely based on the notability factor or the sheer leg work to be done within the platform necessary to create the page?
Thanks! Thederekjohnson (talk) 04:10, 16 January 2020 (UTC)

@CaptainEek:,
Thank you, once again, for your insight and guidance.
I understand why there might be some resistance in any effort to make edits to this page that stick. I hope to gain substantial credibility to the topic of the personhood of this page by implementing information and assets that the current page lacks. Which leads me to a specific question I had for you:
In the process of uploading an image to Wikimedia Commons, what is the copyright classification for an image that was given directly from the author with explicit authorization to be used in cases such as these? Based up on my research with the Wikimedia protocols, I only see coverage for the usage of imagery that currently exists online and resides behind a copyright classification.
Let me know if you need me to further elaborate on my question.
Thanks, Thederekjohnson (talk) 03:33, 20 January 2020 (UTC)
// Hello @CaptainEek:,
I was able to follow your instructions from your previous post successfully! Many thanks.
Oddly enough, I was scouring a wiki article tonight and came across a reference that had a major error in the URL attached. Based upon the associate subject matter, the reference was meant to include a URL with a ".com" TLD but the error in this field resulted in a URL for a pornographic site.
I obviously went in and made the edit, made blatant note of it in the associated Talk page, but I was curious to see if there's any other protocol around this? I thought this instance might weigh heavier considering the product of this error.
Thanks, Thederekjohnson (talk) 04:49, 24 January 2020 (UTC)
//
@CaptainEek: I understand. I do not believe this URL was added with ill intent, but an honest mistake considering the fact the domain was the same, with the exception of the TLD. This helps. I was curious to see if there was any further protocol to be followed in this case.
Thank you once again!

Hello @CaptainEek:,
I have a quick question for you: When looking to adjust a wiki article that has been spun with a negative bias, can you use entries within the "TALK" page as justification for making changes? My wording of that concept might be a tad unclear. For instance, if a page has been written with a particular bias and corresponding editor(s) of that page has indicated bias in contributions within the talk page, can that be grounds to remove and reframe the content of an article?
Interested to to find if there is any opportunity here... Thederekjohnson (talk) 03:40, 31 January 2020 (UTC)
//
@CaptainEek: I believe you certainly understood the question. Is there ever a proper instance, regardless of bias, to effectively remove the edits of another contributor?
Thederekjohnson (talk) 04:42, 4 February 2020 (UTC)
It has been a long time since we have spoken to each other. How have you been getting on? Foxnpichu (talk) 23:40, 12 February 2021 (UTC)
An article you recently created, The Media Project (organization), is not suitable as written to remain published. It needs more in-depth coverage about the subject itself, with citations from reliable, independent sources in order to show it meets WP:GNG. It should have at least three. And please remember that interviews, as primary sources, do not count towards GNG.(?) 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 click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page.Onel5969 TT me 11:50, 26 January 2023 (UTC)
