Welcome!

Hello, Lauren Kolodny, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions.

I noticed that one of the first articles you edited appears to be dealing with a topic with which you may have a conflict of interest. In other words, you may find it difficult to write about that topic in a neutral and objective way, because you are, work for, or represent, the subject of that article. Your recent contributions may have already been undone for this very reason.

To reduce the chances of your contributions being undone, you might like to draft your revised article before submission, and then ask me or another editor to proofread it. See our help page on userspace drafts for more details. If the page you created has already been deleted from Wikipedia, but you want to save the content from it to use for that draft, don't hesitate to ask anyone from this list and they will copy it to your user page.

One rule we do have in connection with conflicts of interest is that accounts used by more than one person will unfortunately be blocked from editing. Wikipedia generally does not allow editors to have usernames which imply that the account belongs to a company or corporation. If you have a username like this, you should request a change of username or create a new account. (A name that identifies the user as an individual within a given organization may be OK.)

In addition, if you receive, or expect to receive, compensation for any contribution you make, you must disclose your employer, client, and affiliation to comply with our terms of use and our policy on paid editing.

Here are some pages that you might find helpful:

I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Please sign your messages on talk pages using four tildes (~~~~); this will automatically insert your username and the date. If you need help, visit the Teahouse, check out Wikipedia:Questions, ask me on my talk page, or ask your question on this page and then place {{Help me}} before the question. Again, welcome!

User:Lauren Kolodny/sandbox

Information icon Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. We appreciate your contributions; however, it appears you may have written a Wikipedia article, or a draft for a Wikipedia article, about yourself, at User:Lauren Kolodny/sandbox. 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 Notable people who have edited Wikipedia). 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. -- Marchjuly (talk) 11:55, 15 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Your username

Welcome to Wikipedia. I noticed that your username, "Lauren Kolodny", may not meet Wikipedia's username policy because it appears to be the user name of a specific, identifiable person according to User:Lauren Kolodny/sandbox. Although users are allowed to use their real names as their user name if they want as explained in WP:REALNAME in some cases an account may be WP:SOFTBLOCKed as a precaution against damaging impersonation until the account holder's identity can be verified. If you believe that your username does not violate our policy, please leave a note here explaining why. As an alternative, you may ask for a change of username by completing the form at Special:GlobalRenameRequest, or you may simply create a new account for editing. Thank you. -- Marchjuly (talk) 11:59, 15 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

If you're really Lauren Koldony, you can use your real name as your username if you want; however, your can be blocked as a precaution against damaging impersonation until your identity can be formally verified. If you want to avoid this from happening, you should consider emailing the Wikipedia Vounteer Response Team and asking for assistance in getting your identity verified. Of course, if you're not Lauren Koldony, you will name to request a username change per Wikipedia:Changing username because your username would be in violation of relevant Wikipedia policy. -- Marchjuly (talk) 12:05, 15 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Acrew Capital moved to draftspace

Thanks for your contributions to Acrew Capital. Unfortunately, I do not think it is ready for publishing at this time because it has no sources. I have converted your article to a draft which you can improve, undisturbed for a while.

Please see more information at Help:Unreviewed new page. When the article is ready for publication, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page OR move the page back. Chaotic Enby (talk · contribs) 12:08, 15 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Please take a look at Wikipedia:Notability (organizations and companies) because nobody is going to be able to create an article about Acrew Capital if it's not Wikipedia notable enough for an article to be written about it. In addition, please take a look at WP:PAID because if you're the same Lauren Kolodny who's listed as a founder of the firm, then you do have a clear financial connection to the firm and would not only be subject to WP:COI but also almost certainly the aforementioned PAID. A failure to properly disclose a financial conflict of interest to a firm that you're trying to create a Wikipedia article about would be a violation of the Wikimedia Foundtion's Terms of Use and could lead to your account being blocked. So, please take a close look at WP:UPE and make sure you properly declare your connection to the firm if you wish to continue trying to create an article about it. -- Marchjuly (talk) 13:47, 15 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
