In [[:Gyral Rossby Waves]] I included material from a website that is available under a compatible Creative Commons Licence. So it should be OKay. I give attribution so that your readers are made aware that I copied the prose since it is impossible to reformulate the equations and the associed explanations. I make sure that I follow this licensing requirement when copying from compatibly-licensed material.

Information icon Welcome to Wikipedia. We appreciate your contributions, but in one of your recent edits to Mid-Pleistocene Transition, it appears that you have added original research, which is against Wikipedia's policies. Original research refers to material—such as facts, allegations, ideas, and personal experiences—for which no reliable, published sources exist; it also encompasses combining published sources in a way to imply something that none of them explicitly say. Please be prepared to cite a reliable source for all of your contributions. You can have a look at the tutorial on citing sources. Thank you. GenQuest "scribble" 07:47, 16 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Nomination of Milankovich's theory revisited for deletion

A discussion is taking place as to whether the article Milankovich's theory revisited is suitable for inclusion in Wikipedia according to Wikipedia's policies and guidelines or whether it should be deleted.

The article will be discussed at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Milankovich's theory revisited until a consensus is reached, and anyone, including you, is welcome to contribute to the discussion. The nomination will explain the policies and guidelines which are of concern. The discussion focuses on high-quality evidence and our policies and guidelines.

Users may edit the article during the discussion, including to improve the article to address concerns raised in the discussion. However, do not remove the article-for-deletion notice from the top of the article.

Please don't recreate the article

Jean-Louis Pinault, the article Milankovich's theory revisited has been moved to Milankovich's theory, following discussion at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Milankovich's theory revisited. If you intend to keep working on it, please do so at the new location, and do not recreate the old article. The reason for this move is that we are not going to have an article named like that in mainspace - it runs counter Wikipedia's WP:POVFORK guidelines to have articles on different "perspectives" or revisionist takes on a topic, if that what this is. I will ask an admin to delete the article once more. Again, please do not recreate it, stick to new location.

As to whether this should be a separate article at all (which I think is not the case), I will shortly start a WP:MERGE discussion at Milankovitch cycles, where you are invited to participate. --Elmidae (talk · contribs) 19:16, 17 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

A merge discussion has now been started at Talk:Milankovitch_cycles#Milankovich's_theory_revisited. --Elmidae (talk · contribs) 19:51, 17 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Copying licensed material requires attribution

Hi. I see in a recent addition to Subharmonic modes of the climate system you included material from a webpage that is available under a compatible Creative Commons Licence. That's okay, but you have to give attribution so that our readers are made aware that you copied the prose rather than wrote it yourself. I've added the attribution for this particular instance. Please make sure that you follow this licensing requirement when copying from compatibly-licensed material in the future. — Diannaa (talk) 14:25, 2 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy deletion nomination of Gyral Rossby waves

Hello Jean-Louis Pinault,

I wanted to let you know that I just tagged Gyral Rossby waves for deletion, because it seems to be copied from another source, probably infringing copyright.

If you feel that the article shouldn't be deleted and want more time to rewrite it in your own words, you can contest this deletion, but don't remove the speedy deletion tag from the top.

You can leave a note on my talk page if you have questions. Thanks!
