Managing a conflict of interest

Hello, Dmbrinton. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about in the page Donna M. Brinton, 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. Randompointofview (talk) 22:40, 25 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

May 2020

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:Robert K. Brinton (mountaineer), from its old location at User:Dmbrinton/sandbox/Robert K. Brinton (mountaineer). 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. KylieTastic (talk) 19:20, 26 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Draft Robert K. Brinton (mountaineer)

Hi - I am a first-time contributor to Wikipedia so please forgive my ignorance. I was reading about chances to improve the time for approval and note that my contribution is relevant to two Wikiprojects: (1) Climbing and (2) Skiing and Snowboarding. I tried editing my draft as shown but then was told I needed to add this information on a talk page. I'm not sure how to do this. Dmbrinton (talk) 00:19, 27 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Your submission at Articles for creation: Mt. Baldy Ski Hut (November 23)

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

This submission's references do not show that the subject qualifies for a Wikipedia article—that is, they do not show significant coverage (not just passing mentions) about the subject in published, reliable, secondary sources that are independent of the subject. Before any resubmission, additional references meeting these criteria should be added (see technical help and learn about mistakes to avoid when addressing this issue). If no additional references exist, the subject is not suitable for Wikipedia.

The comment the reviewer left was:

Nothing special about this particular ski hut, unlike say the Pear Lake Ski Hut, which is on the National Register of Historic Places. I don't see any substantial, independent notice, so WP:GNG isn't satisfied. For example, the USDA Forest Service just mentions it in passing. IMO it should just be added to Mount San Antonio.

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:Mt. Baldy Ski Hut 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:Mt. Baldy Ski Hut, 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, or have experienced any untoward behavior associated with this submission, 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.

Your draft article, Draft:Mt. Baldy Ski Hut

Hello, Dmbrinton. It has been over six months since you last edited the Articles for Creation submission or Draft page you started, "Mt. Baldy Ski Hut".

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 deleted.
