January 2021[edit]

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:Karina Flores, from its old location at User:Karaflores/sandbox/Karina Flores. 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. Sam Sailor 20:49, 14 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Hello and welcome to Wikipedia. When you add content to talk pages and Wikipedia pages that have open discussion, such as at User talk:Sulfurboy, (but never when editing articles), please be sure to sign your posts. There are two ways to do this. Either:

Add four tildes ( ~~~~ ) at the end of your comment, or
With the cursor positioned at the end of your comment, click on the signature button located above the edit window.

This will automatically insert a signature with your username or IP address and the time you posted the comment. This information is necessary to allow other editors to easily see who wrote what and when.

Thank you. Theroadislong (talk) 10:25, 24 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Autobiographies are strongly discouraged[edit]

Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. We appreciate your contributions; however, it appears you may have written a Wikipedia article about yourself, at Draft:Karina Flores. Creating an autobiography is strongly discouraged – please see our guideline on writing autobiographies. If you create such an article, it may be deleted. If what you have done in life is genuinely notable and can be verified according to our policy for articles about living people, someone else will probably create an article about you sooner or later (see Wikipedians with articles). If you wish to add to or change an existing article about yourself, you are welcome to propose the changes by visiting the article's talk page. Please understand that this is an encyclopedia and not a personal web space or social networking site. If your article has already been deleted, please see: Why was the page I created deleted?, and if you feel the deletion was an error, please discuss this with the deleting administrator. Thank you. Sam Sailor 20:53, 14 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

External source is writing[edit]

I am an external source who writes the biography of Karina and does the related researches to validate the content. I appreciate your suggestions, and I fixed the content as requested. Thank you, Sam!

Draft:Karina Flores[edit source][edit]

Hi Sulfurboy and Sam Sailor I genuinely believe that the article is compliant now as I made an extensive research so you can imagine what I found.

Managing a conflict of interest[edit]

Hello, Karaflores. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about in the page Draft:Karina Flores, 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 WP:Spam);
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. Theroadislong (talk) 10:27, 24 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I can confirm there is not COI[edit]

I can confirm there is not COI as I am an external contributor without any relationship with the subject of the draft, and there is not any contractual relationship with the subject of the draft.

Then you need to change your user name ASAP and stop impersonating the articles subject. Theroadislong (talk) 12:55, 24 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I asked for the change, many thanks for your help! As you can understand I am new here. LovingOperaForever (talk) 14:37, 24 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Why did you mark the image of her as "own work", and then release it under a CC license? Possibly (talk) 19:52, 24 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, I am new here, and I am learning a lot during these days, I am reaching out operabase to get the authorization to publish the picture. In the meantime, I removed it.

Kind regards LovingOperaForever (talk) 20:03, 24 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I submitted the request to delete the file. Thanks for your support! LovingOperaForever (talk) 20:33, 24 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Creating other accounts[edit]

Hello, LovingOperaForever, welcome to Wikipedia and thank you for your contributions. Your editing pattern indicates that you may be using multiple accounts, such as Gianluca Castaldo (talk · contribs). Our policy on multiple accounts usually does not allow this, and users who misuse multiple accounts may be blocked from editing. If you operate multiple accounts directly or with the help of another person, please disclose these connections. See this link. Possibly (talk) 18:13, 24 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I just retired the other account LovingOperaForever (talk) 19:45, 24 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Re-submitting[edit]

Hi, Hatchens thanks for reviewing my draft. I didn't get any specific comment so I am submitting again the draft, maybe I will be more lucky to get further information. Before submitting this draft I followed all the review comments and yesterday there were only a few things to do suggested by Theroadislong that I implemented.

Your submission at Articles for creation: Karina Flores (March 13)[edit]

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

The draft creator asked me to review this, but I must decline the submission. For one thing, several of the issues raised in January have not been resolved. Lines like "Her voice is feminine with a dark timbre, brought by dynamic music accent to highlight opera singing's tragic nature" never belong in a Wikipedia article; we are not newspaper reviewers here. That she's soloed in various well-known Requiems is certainly not lead-worthy; hell, I've done that much. We don't need tables of "Repertory" or "Performances," and surely not to list everything the subject has ever done. Likewise, items on a discography should be key releases highlighting the performer, not merely recordings on which the performer was one of many appearing. Being nominated for an honor is not the same as winning an award. And so on. I make no judgment on the subject's notability, but the draft needs numerous improvements still, and the editor's many tweaks since January have not touched them.

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:Karina Flores 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:Karina Flores, 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.

Concerns about a photo you uploaded[edit]

This concerns your recent addition of File:Karina I took it.jpg to Karina Flores.

You have said on Commons that you took this image yourself. However, it is clearly a professional portrait. Did you indeed take it? If so, you have previously said that you have no connection to Karina Flores so that doesn't make sense. More importantly, that image has already been published online without a free license at https://www.instagram.com/p/B76tWJFCx8l/. Thus, further steps will be needed to prove that you hold the copyright. Otherwise, the photo will be deleted. You need to sort this out at Commons as soon as possible. Further information about how to do this is here. Best wishes, Voceditenore (talk) 10:54, 24 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Hallo dear Voceditenore, taking pictures of artists, it doesn't mean you know them, in this case I was with a professional photographer friend of mine and we took this pic, maybe he sent to her or someone else, but I don't have an instagram account so I couldn't double check as you did. Thank you again for your precious support. Next time I will investigate better before publishing any pics. kind regards, LovingOperaForever (talk) 18:10, 25 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I have tagged the photograph for speedy deletion it is a clear copyright violation from here [1] you don't need an Instagram account to see the copyright declaration "© 2021 Instagram from Facebook". Theroadislong (talk) 18:18, 25 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
