  Hello, I'm Tacyarg. I noticed that you added or changed content in an article, Da Brat, but you didn't provide a reliable source. It's been removed and archived in the page history for now, but if you'd like to include a citation and re-add it, please do so. You can have a look at referencing for beginners. If you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. Tacyarg (talk) 23:02, 13 July 2024 (UTC)Reply

Hello Tacyarg, I've added the reliable source to Da Brat Wikipedia page thank you for the tips! Kiara olear (talk) 03:13, 16 July 2024 (UTC)Reply
Hi, thank you for adding sources to the page. However, you are not writing in a neutral way, and you are adding your own opinions. For instance, you write the exciting addition of Da Brat to the cast of the acclaimed TV series "The Chi" for its fourth season. This casting decision underscores the show's dedication to highlighting Chicago's rich talent pool, both on-screen and off-screen. Da Brat, a renowned rapper from Chicago, brings her unique energy and authenticity to the series, further rooting it in the cultural landscape of the city. Her involvement not only adds a fresh dynamic to the storyline but also bridges the gap between the music and television industries, showcasing the versatility of Chicago's artists. The inclusion of Da Brat in "The Chi" serves as a testament to the show's commitment to representing Chicago's diverse voices and experiences. Her presence in the series is expected to resonate with fans. You source that to this article. But all that says which is relevant to the article is Da Brat will reportedly just make a guest appearance. It does not make any statements about her "unique energy", the fans' views, or the show's commitment to diversity. Please review the guidance on neutrality.

  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. 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.

Managing a conflict of interest

  Hello, Kiara olear. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about on Wikipedia, 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 article subjects for more information. We ask that you:

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. Liz Read! Talk! 05:39, 14 July 2024 (UTC)Reply
