Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. This is a message letting you know that one or more of your recent edits to Happily Ever After (1989 film) have been undone by an automated computer program called ClueBot NG.

Welcome!

[edit]

Hello, Eufftardis, 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, which will be reviewed by other editors. 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.

Proposed fix for misstatement of bankruptcy/conviction

[edit]

The current article says that “First National’s bankruptcy followed just weeks after the film’s failed premiere; its President, Milton Verret, was found guilty of defrauding investors.” No reliable sources support a formal bankruptcy or a criminal conviction. The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission brought a civil enforcement action instead.

I propose replacing that sentence with:

In 1998, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission entered a civil enforcement judgment enjoining officers of First National Entertainment Corp. for issuing false and misleading revenue projections for Happily Ever After, improperly trading stock based on undisclosed information, and failing to meet required reporting obligations.[1][2]

These sources confirm that the SEC action was civil, not criminal, and there was no immediate bankruptcy.

Your submission at Articles for creation: Milton Verret (September 19)

[edit]
Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed. Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reasons left by Haj were:
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 (see the guidelines on the notability of people). 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.
Your draft shows signs of having been generated by a large language model, such as ChatGPT. Their outputs usually have multiple issues that prevent them from meeting our guidelines on writing articles. These include:
Please address these issues. The best way is usually to read reliable sources and summarize them, instead of using a large language model. See our help page on large language models.
 The comment the reviewer left was:
Half of the references are nonexistent.
