Hi, Mishae. I think I need some help. I requested help for an article I created (see below). Just got a message saying that I've been helped. But I'm not sure how my query was answered. Thank you!

I recently created Global Banking Alliance for Women. There was a comment that the article reads like an advertisement, so I modified it by expanding and diversifying the references. The text is descriptive. Is it possible to remove the advertisement comment now? Or is there anything else I need to do to make it not read like an advertisement? Thank you for your help! Katrinpark (talk)

Hi, Gidonb, I hope you are well. May I ask you to take a look at Global Banking Alliance for Women, when you have a minute? I created it last week and received a comment saying that it reads like an advert, but I'm not sure how to fix it. Thank you so much for your help! Katrinpark (talk)

Katrinpark(talk) Hi Brainy_J, thank you for the comment. Could you give me specific examples of what makes the article sound like an advertisement? I'd like to fix it. Also, if you could let me know which external links are inappropriate, I'd appreciate that.

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Global Banking Alliance for Women, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Count Me In (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Re: email

I would prefer that all communication be kept onwiki rather than via emails, for purposes of transparency. Email should only be used in the case of privacy concerns that make onwiki communication untenable; and in such cases I may not be the right person for contact.

JavaHurricane, thank you again for reviewing my submission and connecting me to the Teahouse! I will revise the entry so that it addresses the comments you left in your review. Katrinpark (talk) 19:02, 6 November 2023 (UTC)Reply
