Welcome!

Hello, Roaring22, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Unfortunately, one or more of the pages you created, such as Rob Ryan (Entrepreneur), may not conform to some of Wikipedia's guidelines for page creation, and may soon be deleted.

You may also wish to consider using a Wizard to help you create articles. See the Article Wizard. Thank you.

There's a page about creating articles you may want to read called Your first article. If you are stuck, and looking for help, please come to the New contributors' help page, where experienced Wikipedians can answer any queries you have! Or, you can just type {{helpme}} on this page, and someone will show up shortly to answer your questions. Here are a few other good links for newcomers:

I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Please sign your name on talk pages using four tildes (~~~~); this will automatically produce your name and the date. If you have any questions, check out Wikipedia:Where to ask a question or ask me on my talk page. Again, welcome! GILO   ACCIDENT & EMERGENCY 22:29, 23 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

The article Rob Ryan (Entrepreneur) has been proposed for deletion because under Wikipedia policy, all biographies of living persons created after March 18, 2010, must have at least one source that directly supports material in the article.

If you created the article, please don't take offense. Instead, consider improving the article. For help on inserting references, see Wikipedia:Referencing for beginners or ask at Wikipedia:Help desk. Once you have provided at least one reliable source, you may remove the {{prod blp}} tag. Please do not remove the tag unless the article is sourced. If you cannot provide such a source within ten days, the article may be deleted, but you can request that it be undeleted when you are ready to add one. GILO   ACCIDENT & EMERGENCY 22:29, 23 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

The sources for this article are noted in public and published references (news articles, Cornell University, Forbes, Investors Daily, etc.) and further reference by personal knowledge of the facts from Robert Ryan. Please review current edits and updated references and citations to confirm acceptance of article.— Preceding unsigned comment added by Roaring22 (talkcontribs)

Don't worry, the proposed-deletion notice above is from 2010. References were added to the article and the proposed-deletion was cancelled years ago. Alsee (talk) 13:06, 31 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you. Is there a way to remove the header notice (see below)

Text document with red question mark.svg Some or all of this article's listed sources may not be reliable. Please help this article by looking for better, more reliable sources, or by checking whether the references meet the criteria for reliable sources. Unreliable citations may be challenged or deleted. (September 2013)

If you have fixed the problem, you can remove the tag. It's amazingly satisfying! Happy editing! Happy Squirrel (talk) 13:12, 1 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

File source and copyright licensing problem with File:Rob-ryan.jpg

File Copyright problem
File Copyright problem

Thanks for uploading File:Rob-ryan.jpg. However, it currently is missing information on its copyright status and its source. Wikipedia takes copyright very seriously.

If you did not create this work entirely yourself, you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, please add a link to the page from which it was taken, together with a brief restatement of the website's terms of use of its content. If the original copyright holder is a party unaffiliated with the website, that author should also be credited. You will also need to state under what licensing terms it was released. Please refer to the image use policy to learn what files you can or cannot upload on Wikipedia. The page on copyright tags may help you to find the correct tag to use for your file.

Please add this information by editing the image description page. If the necessary information is not added within the next days, the image will be deleted. If the file is already gone, you can still make a request for undeletion and ask for a chance to fix the problem.

Please also check any other files you may have uploaded to make sure they are correctly tagged. Here is a list of your uploads. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Nick⁠—⁠Contact/Contribs 18:54, 30 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]

The uploaded picture file was taken by me and I hold the copyright.— Preceding unsigned comment added by Roaring22 (talkcontribs)

I fixed the formatting on the copyright license for you. I changed

{{Attribution}} David L. Parker

to

{{Attribution|Roaring22|David L. Parker}}.[1]

The name needs to be inside the brackets. I also included Roaring22, although that is optional. I think the copyright issue is solved, but I'll mention Nick here. He's the one who notified you of the problem. He will be notified that I used his name here. Hopefully he will show up to confirm that everything is good now. Alsee (talk) 13:06, 31 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Everything looks good. Thank you Roaring22 for supplying the copyright info and Alsee for helping out! Nick⁠—⁠Contact/Contribs 15:24, 31 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]

File permission problem with File:Rob-ryan.jpg

Thanks for uploading File:Rob-ryan.jpg. I noticed that while you provided a valid copyright licensing tag, there is no proof that the creator of the file has agreed to release it under the given license.

If you are the copyright holder for this media entirely yourself but have previously published it elsewhere (especially online), please either

  • make a note permitting reuse under the CC-BY-SA or another acceptable free license (see this list) at the site of the original publication; or
  • Send an email from an address associated with the original publication to permissions-en@wikimedia.org, stating your ownership of the material and your intention to publish it under a free license. You can find a sample permission letter here. If you take this step, add {{OTRS pending}} to the file description page to prevent premature deletion.

If you did not create it entirely yourself, please ask the person who created the file to take one of the two steps listed above, or if the owner of the file has already given their permission to you via email, please forward that email to permissions-en@wikimedia.org.

If you believe the media meets the criteria at Wikipedia:Non-free content, use a tag such as {{non-free fair use}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:File copyright tags#Fair use, and add a rationale justifying the file's use on the article or articles where it is included. See Wikipedia:File copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have provided evidence that their copyright owners have agreed to license their works under the tags you supplied, too. You can find a list of files you have created in your upload log. Files lacking evidence of permission may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. You may wish to read Wikipedia's image use policy. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Kelly hi! 20:56, 16 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Managing a conflict of interest

Information icon Hello, Roaring22. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about in the article Rob Ryan (entrepreneur), you may have a conflict of interest (COI). Editors with a COI may be unduly influenced by their connection to the topic. See the conflict of interest guideline and FAQ for organizations for more information. In particular, please:

  • avoid editing or creating articles related to you and your circle, your organization, its competitors, projects or products;
  • instead propose changes on the talk pages of affected articles (see the {{request edit}} template);
  • when discussing affected articles, disclose your COI (see WP:DISCLOSE);
  • avoid linking to the Wikipedia article or website of your organization in other articles (see WP:SPAM);
  • exercise great caution so that you do not violate Wikipedia's content policies.

In addition, you must disclose your employer, client, and affiliation with respect to any contribution for which you receive, or expect to receive, compensation (see WP:PAID).

Please familiarize yourself with relevant policies and guidelines, especially those pertaining to neutral point of view, sourcing and autobiographies. Thank you. -- Rrburke (talk) 14:30, 29 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Notice of Conflict of interest noticeboard discussion

Information icon There is currently a discussion at Wikipedia:Conflict of interest/Noticeboard regarding a possible conflict of interest incident with which you may be involved. Thank you. SVTCobra (talk) 15:31, 8 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Help me!

SVTCobra has edited the Wikipedia page for Rob Ryan (Entrepreneur), claiming that the author was, in fact, the subject. That is incorrect, my name is Davide Parker (dparker@srscapital.us), and I am not the subject but the author in this case. Certain items were removed without notice and I will attempt to restore them as they were originally entered, and provide additional independent resources and references. For example, SVTCobra states that 'Rob Ryan was not an engineer and yet was awarded the Intel Engineer of the Year Award', I will provide a copy of the award for SVTCobra's education. As to Mr. Ryan's role with DEC and Livermore, I will also provide further resources and references. In the past you have asked for such before removing material - I would appreciate a similar approach here, rather than outright removal of material. SVTCobra states that many of the claims in the article are extraordinary and approaches their edit with cynicism. The fact that Mr. Ryan was the principal founder of Ascend Communications is a reflection of Mr. Ryan's capabilities and engineering skill set. Further, SVTCobra mentioned other engineers that worked with Mr. Ryan at Ascend, which is true, but they followed him from Hayes and the company was founded under his leadership. I will provide further references in this regard, including the original offering statement from Ascend.

What can be done to restore the original article and let me provide substantiating documentation consistent with Wikipedia policies.

David Parker

Please help me with...

It sounds like you have a content dispute going but additionally, you really need to read the thread you were linked to above and disclose as required by WP:DISCLOSE. Praxidicae (talk) 16:49, 28 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Hello David Parker. I would have seen this message sooner if you had used {{ping}} with my user name. I believe I said you were suspected of being the subject. I made that inference because your user name is named after Mr. Ryan's ranch. Regardless, I remain firm in my belief that you have a conflict of interest with regards to Rob Ryan (entrepreneur) as well as for Draft:Theresa W Ryan.
Articles on Wikipedia must have reliable sources to back up every claim. I removed claims for which I could find no documentation. And copying from Mr. Ryan's website or his Cornell alumni bio or his books is not allowed. The reason I said he isn't an engineer is because he does not appear to have an engineering degree, making the Intel award less plausible (and still undocumented). The article will almost certainly not be restored to the condition it was in. It was in violation of WP:PROMO. I sought the advice of others before making substantial changes. Since you have a likely COI, you should probably not edit the article, but you are free to make suggestions at Talk:Rob Ryan (entrepreneur) and post links to the references and sources for the claims about Livermore and DEC. But you are right, I do get cynical when I see Wikipedia biographies which are written as marketing material. I will add this talk page to my watch list, just so you don't have to ping me if you choose to communicate here. Sincerely, --SVTCobra 20:01, 15 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]
