or cite multiple reliable, secondary sources independent of the subject, which cover the subject in some depth

Make sure your draft meets one of the criteria above before resubmitting. Learn about mistakes to avoid when addressing this issue. If the subject does not meet any of the criteria, it is not suitable for Wikipedia.

The comment the reviewer left was:

cancelling all self published works, this does not meet WP:GNG or WP:NPROF.

Managing a conflict of interest[edit]

Hello, OrganizationTheory. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about on the page Draft:Acharya Dr. Sthaneshwar Timalsina, 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 article subjects for more information. We ask that you:

avoid editing or creating articles about yourself, your family, friends, colleagues, company, organization, clients, or competitors;
propose changes on the talk pages of affected articles (you can use the {{edit COI}} template)—don't forget to give details of reliable sources supporting your suggestions;
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. Thank you. DoubleGrazing (talk) 10:27, 6 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

May 2024[edit]

This is your only warning; if you move a page disruptively again, as you did at Draft:Sthaneshwar Timalsina, you may be blocked from editing without further notice. Thanks, Please feel free to ping/mention -- User4edits (T) 05:42, 14 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Dear @User4edits I'm hoping you can help me understand what this means. I had submitted the draft for publication and received a decline on April 29, 2024. That decline told me to ask the AfC Help Desk for further assistance, which is what I did here: Wikipedia:WikiProject Articles for creation/Help desk#20:09, 5 May 2024 review of submission by OrganizationTheory. The Editor at the help desk identified a few changes to make, and told me to change the name of the page to "Sthaneshwar Timalsina", and then said the article is "good to go" because it certainly meets the Wikipedia:Notability (academics)#Criteria. So I made the changes, changed the page name, and then moved it into the article space. Was this not the appropriate action? If not, can you please let me know how to proceed? I certainly don't want to be blocked from future edits! Thank you for your guidance. OrganizationTheory (talk) 10:44, 14 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Judging by the edit summary "revert COI move to mainspace" left when this was moved back to drafts, User4edits seems to be suggesting that you may have a conflict of interest in this subject which has not been disclosed. You will note that I placed a COI query here a week or so ago (the section above, titled 'Managing a conflict of interest'), but you appear not to have responded to this. Could you do so now, please, describing (in your own words) what relationship, if any, you have with the subject of this draft. Thank you, -- DoubleGrazing (talk) 10:53, 14 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Ah, thank you for clarifying! There is no COI whatsoever. I make almost all my edits in the realm of Hindu and Buddhist tantra and have edited other similar scholars' pages as well, like Mark S. G. Dyczkowski. I don't have any relationship with these scholars. I have just been hoping to increase the number of biographical pages about scholars of Śaiva tantra in particular, as it is a particular fascination on mine that isn't well-represented on Wikipedia, and this was my first attempt at moving an article into main. I apologize once again if I did something wrong in the process, it was simply because I'm new here and still learning the ropes. I'd like to remain an active editor on Wikipedia and hope this mistake doesn't get in the way of that. OrganizationTheory (talk) 11:08, 14 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

An SPI has been started by me for some people (including you) linked to this Draft. You can see it here, do you know them? Thanks, Please feel free to ping/mention -- User4edits (T) 16:27, 14 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Dear User4edits, having read the SPI article you pasted above, I now understand what your concerns about my account are and I assure you they are entirely not the case. As that article advises, I'll be patient and wait until the investigation concludes. OrganizationTheory (talk) 10:59, 15 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
