Review of draft Historic Preservation Book prize page

[edit]

Thanks for working on my new page - I think it is ready for review and to have draft status removed. Please let me know if you see any other issue that needs to be fixed ProfessorKaiFlai (talk) 17:47, 11 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Good luck with your review, @ProfessorKaiFlai! It would have a better chance if the draft had any independent sources about the prize itself (not just prize winner announcements). Schazjmd (talk) 19:21, 11 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks - I added what sources I could but also note this from the talk page: "This draft does not require a rating on Wikipedia's content assessment scale. It is of interest to multiple WikiProjects." That suggests to me that the article should be able to make the transfer. Fingers crossed!

@ProfessorKaiFlai, I'm not sure what you're interpreting that language to mean. It's boilerplate, it doesn't mean anything specific about your article or its notability. Anyway, good luck! Schazjmd (talk) 21:49, 11 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks - I'll abide by whatever decision is made
, as always. Thanks for the feedback! ProfessorKaiFlai (talk) 03:24, 12 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Maps on Survivor sites

[edit]

Just what is not appropriate about the links to the maps I've been adding to the Survivor Wiki pages? Curious about what your rational is. Jdavis2927 (talk) 19:55, 5 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Jdavis2927, please read WP:EL (which I also linked on your talk page). External links don't belong in wikipedia articles, except as references or in an External links section. The links that you're adding would not belong even in an External links section. A user-generated map is "unverifiable research" (#2 in the "what should not be linked" section of WP:EL).

Question from Amenzeiyamu on Emilia Asim-Ita (05:18, 6 July 2024)

[edit]

Hello, I noticed this page needs a lot of edits as it still speaks of her in the present tense. Is this the norm? --Amenzeiyamu (talk) 05:18, 6 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Amenzeiyamu, welcome! You are correct, an article about a person who has died should use the past tense. I see that you've already fixed the tenses in that article, good job! Schazjmd (talk) 13:06, 6 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks a lot! 197.211.59.16 (talk) 18:25, 6 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Question from Pvchem86 (18:16, 8 July 2024)

[edit]

Hey I want to write a wikipedia page for someone else, how shall I start --Pvchem86 (talk) 18:16, 8 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hi @Pvchem86 and welcome! Your first article walks you through the process. I have to warn you though that writing an article from scratch and getting it accepted can be a challenge. On the technical side, it might be helpful if you learn how to edit by making small changes and improvements to existing articles first. On the content side, if you'd like to post your three best reliable sources for the person that you want to write about here, I'll be glad to take a look and give advice on whether it looks like that person is notable enough for an article.

Hello I would like to publish my original theory --Jonatan Levi Garcia Zendejas (talk) 09:35, 16 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Welcome, @Jonatan Levi Garcia Zendejas. Wikipedia is not the place to publish original theories; see What Wikipedia is not and Original research for details. I will post some useful links for editing Wikipedia on your talk page, if you're interested in editing, but if your only purpose is to publish your thoughts, I suggest starting a blog. Hope that helps! Schazjmd (talk) 13:33, 16 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

non-mainspace in see also

[edit]

Hi, thanks for the correction on Mornington Crescent tube station: Difference between revisions - Wikipedia (diff). I wasn't aware meta links weren't allowed in the see also section; I know of the rules of MOS:NOTSEEALSO and didn't think it was violating. Could you please point me to the restrictions on linking to wikipedia space in the main namespace for my future editing reference? Thank you.


Shotgunheist💬 19:11, 4 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hi @Shotgunheist, the guidance is at MOS:DRAFTNOLINK: In articles, do not link to pages outside the article namespace, except in articles about Wikipedia itself (and even in that case with care – see Wikipedia:Manual of Style/Self-references to avoid).

I think I have to block User talk:FairfieldAve as CIR

[edit]

A shame, but [1] is the last straw. Any comment before I do so? Doug Weller talk 08:38, 5 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Doug Weller, I have to agree, the English competency just isn't there. Schazjmd (talk) 13:28, 5 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
