Helping with a draft

I was asked for help with a draft but I didn't know what advice to give. I asked here but you responded to the next question and ignored mine.— Vchimpanzee · talk · contributions · 19:31, 7 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

To editor Vchimpanzee: sad Sorry, I was thinking about how to answer. I'll have a response shortly. Anon126 (talk - contribs) 19:39, 7 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]
I'm rejoining the real world now and won't see this for several days. Perhaps you could help the person directly. Thanks.— Vchimpanzee · talk · contributions · 21:22, 7 April 2014 (UTC)Oops, your answer was there, not here.— Vchimpanzee · talk · contributions · 14:20, 8 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Electrical equipment in hazardous areas

Hi, you tagged the lead on this article as needing a rewrite. Any specific suggestions would really help. --Wtshymanski (talk) 23:26, 9 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

WP Mentorship

Hi Anon126, there is a proposal ongoing about a development of Wikipedia mentoring, to make it slicker and a better, more standerdised process. We would love to have you on board, and would appreciate your help, anything you can do, from reading the proposal and leaving comments to volunteering to be a part of the scheme is greatly appreciated. Thanks, Matty.007 16:22, 19 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Re:Thanks for diffusing!

No problems. If any other editors got any more ideas after mine, please encourage them to do so. When I decided to diffuse the category, I was worrying that the administrators would accuse me of vandalism. Knowing you approve of what I've done make me feel relief about this.--NeoBatfreak (talk) 07:58, 20 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

About your review

At first I want to thank you for your review. I've already removed some information. I was wondering if you inform me whether I could make it restricted so that anyone couldn't easily edit the article as you know it's about an organisation. Or any kind of suggestions to get rid of this problem.

Thank you.

To editor Shahriar.khaled786: I've looked over it, and I think the detail level is fine for now. As for restrictions, sorry, that's not likely to happen. No one owns any article, so an organization's article can't be controlled by the organization. Pages are sometimes protected from editing, but that is only for serious problems.

Thank you Anon126

Bonjour:

Yes indeed, I am trying to upload her picture unfortunately wikicommon is not connecting with the wikipage in my sandbox. Will you please upload it?

A second request, for some reason, I am unable to link my text to wiki (highlighted in blue as it does in all published articles), will you please help?

Cheers

Hello, I assume you are Ajbaptiste but logged out, and that you are referring to Draft:Misoon Ghim? I am not sure what other image you want to add. About the links, I've fixed the category links at the bottom; were you concerned about those? Anon126 (notify me of responses! / talk / contribs) 20:14, 27 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

USCGC Tupelo

Thank you for your recent edits to USCGC Tupelo (WLB-303). Be advised the U.S. Coast Guard may commission a new Tupelo in the future, same name, but different designation; eg: WLB-XXX. This could possibly necessitate another edit. Thank you for remembering our ship, and your interest in U.S. Coast Guard history. Semper ParatusTjlynnjr (talk) 17:12, 29 April 2014 (UTC).[reply]

Article Submission

Dear Anon126,

I hope you are doing well over there!

I have submitted an article to Wikipedia earlier.

The article can can be found here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia_talk:Articles_for_creation/Sebastian_Springer

I was hoping that you take a look at it and let me know if any further modifications are still required.

Sorry for running to you like this. I hope this is not annoying. :)

Thank you for assistance!

To editor GlobalScientists150: Hello, no it's not a problem (though I'm not sure if we've met on Wikipedia before).
The submission needs more sources that are about him, not by him. Generally, most of the information should come from sources of information that are neither written by him nor affiliated with him; these are the independent sources required to show notability.
That is, has any of the following...
  • His academic work
  • His teaching
  • His awards
...been discussed by...
  • A newspaper?
  • A magazine?
  • His academic peers?
There are also other ways for an academic professional to be notable on Wikipedia. Anon126 (notify me of responses! / talk / contribs) 21:43, 2 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Re: Your Signature

Thanks for leaving a message on my user talk, however I used signatures I signed is used a template or using four tildes! --Allen Nguyen Talk 21:18, 2 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I've proposed a merger

I've started a discussion to merge the List of My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic characters with the My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic page, and I would appreciate some input. You may find the discussion here. User:Immblueversion (talk) 18:58, 3 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]

To editor Immblueversion:
Already watching. I will comment soon. Anon126 (notify me of responses! / talk / contribs) 19:38, 3 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Sorry, I read more into the details on merging articles after I first posted the discussion, and I learned that it should typically take place on the talk page of the destination article; I meant to delete it from the list's talk page. Looking at it again, though, apparently it's acceptable to discuss it on the source page. I reckon I should just leave both discussions alone. User:Immblueversion (talk) 22:31, 3 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Thank You Thank You.

Hi Anon126. @Anon126: Thanks for your thorough and very helpful response. I will work on that. Much clearer now on the difference between citations and references which is "no difference" :) Today I will make a request to take the page out of deletion so that I may work on editing Ms. Fontaines. Thanks for offering step by step answers and for making this feel less daunting. Venus2211 (talk) 18:11, 9 May 2014 (UTC)Venus2211[reply]

I had something new come up. Conflicting edits. I have to merge my edit and don't know how to! EEK! I think this is going to take me a while. Wikipedia that is. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Venus2211 (talk • contribs) 01:27, 11 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]

To editor Venus2211: (Oh, here is your message. I almost didn't find it.) If you can't merge your changes, you can cancel what you were doing and start over. (I suspect that I was the other editor that caused the conflict, sorry if you were making big changes sad) Anon126 (notify me of responses! / talk / contribs) 01:35, 11 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]
To editor Anon126: Thanks for making changes and doing what you are doing to help out. Not a concern it helps me to practice. ;) Ok. I will redo. Hopefully it will work out. Thanks thanks thanks Venus2211 (talk) 01:39, 11 May 2014 (UTC)Venus2211 P.S. Do you know if I can add the Getty images images? They ARE copyright and on actual red carpet where normally only media people can go.[reply]
To editor Venus2211: No, it will likely be deleted, I'm afraid. Anon126 (notify me of responses! / talk / contribs) 01:57, 11 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]
To editor Anon126: Ok. Thanks Anon126. If I attempt to email Ms. Fontaines and ask to get approval from her website and she okays/provides me with an image? Would that likely work? I can always try if wikipedia accepts it. Venus2211 (talk) 02:02, 11 May 2014 (UTC)Venus2211[reply]
To editor Venus2211: It'll be tough. The copyright probably belongs to the photographer, who has only given permission for Fontaines to use the photo on her site. You need to get permission from the copyright owner, which seems pretty hard to track down based on what I found. Anon126 (notify me of responses! / talk / contribs) 02:28, 11 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Adding to this: If you manage to find the copyright owner, they need to grant permission for anyone to use it for any purpose, even commercial ones. This is part of Wikipedia's basic principles: providing content that anyone can use. Anon126 (notify me of responses! / talk / contribs) 02:44, 11 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]
To editor Anon126: Full of questions. Thanks for all of your help Anon126. Does this part currently on the page I am editing go away once I have corrected the necessary details or does someone re-visit and clear it at some point?

To editor Venus2211: (To make things clearer for other people, I've put your example in a box.) You can remove it yourself if you think the problems are solved, but make sure to explain why you think so the edit summary. The code that makes the notices is inside {{multiple issues|...}}. As you might guess, it contains messages for multiple issues. You can remove individual issues as they are solved by taking out specific {{...}} items. Keep in mind that other people could add them again if they think the problems are not yet solved, or if new problems come up. Anon126 (notify me of responses! / talk / contribs) 02:28, 11 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]
To editor Anon126: You are good at this Anon126. I wish there was such a thing as a "brain app" so people could access all the information needed. Sort of like Matrix the movie. Thanks for boxing the example. Now I know how to do that. :) Ok. I will remove the references and hope my idea of solved is the same as other editors. Did you get the question about attempting to get permission and image from the official site of Ms Fontaines? I don't know if I can do that. In the case that I can, will Wikipedia likely accept that? Thanks thanks thanks Venus2211 (talk) 02:35, 11 May 2014 (UTC)Venus2211[reply]
To editor Venus2211: Yes, I've replied to the question about permission. (It starts with "I'll be tough".) Anon126 (notify me of responses! / talk / contribs) 02:44, 11 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]
To editor Anon126: Now that's funny and it worked.Found it thanks thanks thanks . Will see how easy it is to get a/single photographer or many to okay a few photographs. Hopefully they have personal sites I can mail them on. If I manage that do I notify someone that I have received the right to use the image? thanks thanks thanksVenus2211 (talk) 02:57, 11 May 2014 (UTC)Venus2211[reply]

Still having trouble and was re deleted before I had a chance to enter anything more.

Thanks for your help. Still having trouble. The page was deleted before I had a change to enter my edit and information. Now that I have entered some of it it's not appearing properly. I enetered the following with no luck. Can you help with this? What am I doing incorrectly that is making it not appear on the edit page? Do editors always re delete a submission before you've worked on it? Is there something I can do to keep that from happening. I am doing this on my free time and am having a hard time with it clearly. Thanks Thanks Venus2211 (talk) 03:34, 10 May 2014 (UTC)Venus2211[reply]

Hi, Venus2211. You need some special code at the end to make the references appear. I've added it, and you can get the exact code here. Even after that fix, there is still something else.
Citations are supposed to show that a piece of information is true. Take this sentence from your article: "She has worked the spectrum of the entertainment industry having produced, directed, casting film, song writing and singing." Which source shows that this is true? Place the <ref>...</ref> code for that source right after the sentence.
You've recreated the article in the "live" article space. I want to warn you that this means that it could be deleted again. If that happens, you should go to requests for undeletion again and ask for it to be restored as a userspace draft. That means it will be a subpage of your userpage, with a name like User:Venus2211/Anastasia S. Fontaines. This is outside the live article space, so it will not be deleted so quickly.
If you have any more questions, feel free to ask them below. Anon126 (notify me of responses! / talk / contribs) 04:12, 10 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Article

Dear Anon126,

Hope you're doing well over there!

It's me again.

I have made a number of editions in the article here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia_talk:Articles_for_creation/Sebastian_Springer

- I added more independent citations. - I also cited some other research papers that have discussed his work. - I added some new verifiable information.

Please take a look and let me know if the article is ready for creation or still needs some more changes.

On another note, I have requested changing my username from GlobalScientists150 to Sourcecode12.

Kind Regards, — Preceding unsigned comment added by GlobalScientists150 (talk • contribs) 17:00, 10 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Anon126 You are a great resource. I need more help if you can please.

Hi!

Thanks to your help I think things are improving though still messy. I tried to upload images after I made further edits and references to the page for Anastasia S. Fontaines. Is there an editor that could help me with adding images. I looked it up and it seems as though I needs someone to do it for me due to being a novice at this and new. I am in no way ready to create 10 pages yet. Getting through this one will be a major triumph. Then I will do more.

Thanks thanks thanks Venus2211 (talk) 23:30, 10 May 2014 (UTC)Venus2211[reply]

Hello again, Venus2211. I think you may have misread the requirements: You only need to make ten edits (and have your account for four days) to upload images. But even after that, there are still some rules you have to follow. I'm guessing you want to add the photo here. Copyrighted images (like this one) can only be added if they meet certain requirements. One of the requirements is that there is no way to replace it with another one that is free content. Unfortunately, photos of living people usually fail this one, because someone else could take a photo of her at a public appearance. If you really want to, you could try to take her photo at an event and upload it. Anon126 (notify me of responses! / talk / contribs) 00:17, 11 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]

"@anon126". User:Anon126/Anon126 I did misread that. Thanks for spelling it out. I feel like a 2 year old on here. I will think out the image situation. If it's a copyright image from somewhere like Getty or Wireimage on a carpet? That would work? I believe at those carpet events only media are allowed to take photos. If it has their stamp on it would that help. I noticed that some of the images have a "LOGO Stamp" with the copyright media company on it. Does that help in the images criteria? Thanks thanks thanks Venus2211 (talk) 00:38, 11 May 2014 (UTC)Venus2211[reply]

To editor Venus2211: Basically, any image that doesn't say people are allowed to reuse it is copyrighted and "non-free". The logo stamp doesn't really matter; it's still copyrighted with or without it. I think you are right; it is difficult to take a photo at such an event, but I've made a request for one anyway. The best thing to do now is continue improving the article without an image. Anon126 (notify me of responses! / talk / contribs) 01:04, 11 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Sourcecode12

Thanks for the heads up!

It seems that Sourcecode12 username is now working. I will avoid using Globalscientists150.

Waiting for your response regarding the article and if it requires further editing.
