 – via Questia (subscription required)

Hi, seeing the great work you've done. I was wondering if you'd be willing to join my project? If you scroll down see the stub focus contest. You're more than welcome to propose a subject and help create 10 new articles and also used the project pages to store missing content. No obligation to be a part of it, just a loose association of editors who start articles from other wikis who tackle systematic bias.♦ Dr. Blofeld 06:06, 17 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Dr, thanks for your invitation. I will try to contribute to your project. I may propose a subject related to magazines or magazine founders from those countries which are less represented in the Wikipedia. --Egeymi (talk) 14:06, 18 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Nomination of Magharebia for deletion

A discussion is taking place as to whether the article Magharebia 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/Magharebia until a consensus is reached, and anyone 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. Mnnlaxer (talk) 21:26, 8 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Question

Hi, as my watchlist is getting quite long, I am trying to pare it down a bit. So when I see you editing a magazine article that I have watchlisted, I remove it, assuming that you'll keep an eye on it so I'm not needed any more. However, that hinges upon the assumption being true... If you don't watchlist them, thy risk not being watched by anybody any more at all. Hence my question: do you watchlist the articles you edit and can I continue removing those from my own watchlist? Thanks. --Randykitty (talk) 15:38, 20 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I am sorry, I do not watchlist all the articles I edited. But I sometimes add them to my list. So I do not know which magazines you are referring to. However, I frequently check the magazine articles. --Egeymi (talk) 15:46, 20 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  • It would be too many to list (and because I took them off my watchlist, I'd be hard pressed to make a list anyway). But it looks like you're cheking most of them, so I'll continue taking them of my watchlist, concentrating on academic journals. Thanks for all your good work! --Randykitty (talk) 16:01, 20 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]
OK Randy, sure I will check them. Don't worry :)) --Egeymi (talk) 16:03, 20 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Reliable sources

Eygemi, first of all, thank you for your contributions here. I just ran into Leninshil Zhas, an article on a very difficult topic since there are so few sources available. Unfortunately, one of the references you added, this article, is not an acceptable source for a variety of reasons. Basically, that journal is part of a pay-for-play scheme, where authors pay a sum to get their stuff published. There seems to be no decent editorial oversight, and thus we cannot cite them in Wikipedia. (I just left a note on User talk:Randykitty#Journal mill--Randykitty is an academic and one of our experts on academic journals.) Note that I'm not blaming you--I don't know whether you're an academic or not, whether you're trained to look for those things or not, and it can be hard to see: it certainly looks, at first glance, like a decent enough journal. But I did have to remove it. Thanks, Drmies (talk) 14:07, 17 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]

It is OK Drmies. --Egeymi (talk) 06:49, 20 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Email

I tried sending your Taylor & Francis access to the address you listed in the form, but it bounced - could you send me an email? I'm wondering if maybe there's a typo in the address. Nikkimaria (talk) 03:46, 19 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I have sent you an email, thanks. --Egeymi (talk) 06:50, 20 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]
