Héðinsfjörður crash

The 1947 Héðinsfjörður air crash article you created a while back just got moved to 1947 Flugfélag Íslands DC-3 crash. While the mover makes good points in that air crash is probably not the correct term (plane crash is probably more correct), I'm not sure the new title is descriptive of that crash as it is so commonly linked to the site of the crash but not the airline or the plane type. Your thoughts? Alvaldi (talk) 13:07, 18 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Monumento Nacional

@Yngvadottir Inoticed you deleted Portal Fernandez Concha from the list of National Monuments.

Here is a link confirming its status in the Chilean Congress official publication https://www.camara.cl/cms/noticias/2023/05/04/exponen-la-necesidad-de-recuperar-el-edificio-patrimonial-portal-fernandez-concha/

I feel if a building were discussed in the US congress it would be notable. I appreciate that chile isa small country that cant be compared to the USA but it would appear notable.

Its challenging to motivate yourself toengage and try create useful content on wikipedia when things are deleted without what would appear to be a second thought. TraceySear840 (talk) 15:56, 18 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Yngvadottir

additionally here [1]https://www.camara.cl/verDoc.aspx?prmId=5103&prmDestinoId=3&prmTipo=RESOLUCIONENVIO

it says "Lamentablemente, durante los últimos años se ha evidenciado una grave crisis de seguridad e integridad en los sectores aledaños a la Plaza de Armas de Santiago, y el Portal Fernández Concha es uno de los edificios más afectados, pese a ser monumento nacional. Así, recientemente, el portal periodístico CIPER publicó un reportaje que revela" TraceySear840 (talk) 15:58, 18 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hi TraceySear840. Let me say first, I am glad you returned to editing. Secondly, I don't doubt the building is notable. That's why I rewrote your draft and moved it to mainspace. (And nobody has nominated the article for deletion, so the community appears to agree!) Unfortunately, it's quite common for a new editor to have an article on a notable topic rejected at Articles for Creation; the reviewers are looking at the draft, not researching the topic themselves, and as you have discovered, there's a steep learning curve for writers who want to create new articles.

I looked at the first link you added here (note that the Congress discussing the building and passing a resolution that it should be taken away from its owners is already in the article). However, that reference doesn't support listing it as a historic monument; it's not precisely expressed, but El inmueble se protege como monumento nacional en categoría de zona típica indicates what the other sources state: it's included in the zona típica of the Plaza de Armas and associated buildings, but not listed independently. Both quotations appear to be using the term loosely. If that has changed and the building is now listed independently as a historic monument, please find a citation where the Consejo de Monumentos Nacionales states that. I looked but found only the page we are citing, [2].

I realise it can be very discouraging to have your work reverted. And I do appreciate how hard it is to write for publication in a language that (I assume) is not your native language. I do not agree in the least with assuming that an editor's motivations are bad, and I hope you have now responded to the questions about conflict of interest and artificial intelligence so that those can be put to rest. I'm now going to go and check the article talk page and your talk page. Yngvadottir (talk) 23:44, 18 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Yngvadottir Thank you for the detailled feedback, advice and useful ideas. TraceySear840 (talk) 12:36, 22 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
