My stress level!








Welcome!


Hello, Etriusus, and welcome to Wikipedia! My name is Shalor and I work with the Wiki Education Foundation; I help support students who are editing as part of a class assignment.

I hope you enjoy editing here. If you haven't already done so, please check out the student training library, which introduces you to editing and Wikipedia's core principles. You may also want to check out the Teahouse, a community of Wikipedia editors dedicated to helping new users. Below are some resources to help you get started editing.

Good article review


Hi! I saw that you nominated the article on the Creighton Preparatory School for Good Article consideration. I want you to keep in mind that putting an article through the Good Article process can take a long time, sometimes even months to be completed and it's expected that you will be monitoring the article if there are any concerns that need to be addressed, even if the class is over. I can't review it, as I'm involved with your class. Here are the things they will be looking at, based on their assessment template: 



  • It is reasonably well written. Spelling, prose, and grammar are correct and it follows Wikipedia's style guidelines. There is no copyright issues or plagiarism.
    • 

  • It is factually accurate and verifiable. The article is sourced with reliable sources that establish notability and also explicitly back up the claims.
    • 

  • It is broad in its coverage. All of the major aspects are covered. They also look at the general size to make sure that it's not undercovered or has too much indiscriminate information.
    • 

  • It follows the neutral point of view policy. There's no bias in the article.
    • 

  • It's stable, without any edit wars. There is no edit warring currently going on or people going back and forth between versions.
    • 

  • It is illustrated by images and other media, where possible and appropriate. This is optional.


Offhand here are my notes for the article: 



  • The article needs to be checked for grammar. There's some use of the term "we" in the article, which should be avoided since Wikipedia is not meant to be written from the point of view of the school and per this guideline on second person pronouns, should be written in third person. This is especially important as second person pronouns can make an article seem too casual or even promotional. Make sure that there is no promotional language in the article.
    • 

  • I am somewhat concerned about the amount of detail in the article, as there may be too much focus on the smaller details, making them indiscriminate data.
    • 

  • Be extremely careful with the controversy section. Controversies should only be included if there is enough coverage to justify mentioning it. For example, I'm not sure that the Chris Nizzi situation has enough coverage.
    • 

  • The alumni section needs sourcing.
    • 

  • A lot of the sourcing is primary, so the reviewer will likely ask for more non-primary sources. The sourcing also needs to be fixed so that it has all of the necessary information for each source.


They may have more suggestions that are more nitpicky, which is why I wanted to caution you, as this can be a fairly labor intensive process. Shalor (Wiki Ed) (talk) 19:53, 10 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]



  • Hi! I saw that you removed the GA tag - I hope I didn't scare you off of it! I just wanted to give you an idea of the process. I'd definitely be willing to work with you on the process if you still wanted to do it. Shalor (Wiki Ed) (talk) 14:09, 11 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]


Anarchism


 Hi Etriusus, 

I saw your work on articles related to anarchism and wanted to say hello, as I work in the topic area too. If you haven't already, you might want to watch our noticeboard for Wikipedia's coverage of anarchism, which is a great place to ask questions, collaborate, discuss style/structure precedent, and stay informed about content related to anarchism. Take a look for yourself!

And if you're looking for other juicy places to edit, consider expanding a stub, adopting a cleanup category, or participating in one of our current formal discussions.

Feel free to say hi on my talk page and let me know if these links were helpful (or at least interesting). Hope to see you around. czar 10:31, 25 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]



Hi Czar,


I'm going to add a large amount of info to The Anarchist Cookbook page, you can see my planned edits on the front of my page. I would appreciate it if you could repair the links once I take the edits live, I've been having issue with that and I'll try to fix it prior to uploading but I'm uncertain if it'll work. Etriusus (talk) 18:08, 29 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]



Cool. I fixed a few but let me know if you need a hand with anything else. By the way, I recommend using reliable, secondary sources for the content summary instead of the book itself (primary source) whenever possible. czar 02:04, 30 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]


Thank you

Project classification


Hi! Some of your recent edits removed the WP Anarchism template from a number of talk pages clearly within scope, e.g., [1][2]. The template should be restored if you can revisit/revert those edits. In the case of my two examples, there is no defining connection to "philosophy" and as such those banners should be removed (not the "anarchism" one). The banner overlap is an artifact of unfinished work when the anarchism project split from the philosophy project. When eventually complete, the anarchism parameter will be phased out of the philosophy banner. Also, if helpful for the future, the WP:RATER tool makes this sort of classification much easier. czar 06:17, 13 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]



I see, I will restore the banners ASAP. It looks like when the new format moved over, many of the templates were left blank. This makes them show up twice since they are listed under 2 separate article classes. It is not a pressing concern but something that I'll clean up for organizational purposes.

Invitation to take part in a survey about medical topics on Wikipedia


Dear fellow editor,

I am Piotr Konieczny, a sociologist of new media at Hanyang University (and User:Piotrus on Wikipedia). I would like to better understand Wikipedia's volunteers who edit medical topics, many associated with the  WikiProject Medicine, and known to create some of the highest quality content on Wikipedia. I hope that the lessons I can learn from you that I will present to the academic audience will benefit both the WikiProject Medicine (improving your understanding of yourself and helping to promote it and attract new volunteers) and the wider world of medical volunteering and academia. Open access copy of the resulting research will be made available at WikiProject's Medicine upon the completion of the project.

All questions are optional. The survey is divided into 4 parts: 1 - Brief description of yourself; 2 - Questions about your volunteering; 3 - Questions about WikiProject Medicine and 4 - Questions about Wikipedia's coverage of medical topics. 

Please note that by filling out this questionnaire, you consent to participate in this research. The survey is anonymous and all personal details relevant to your experience will be kept private and will not be transferred to any third party.

I appreciate your support of this research and thank you in advance for taking the time to participate and share your experiences! If you have any questions at all, please feel free to contact me at my Wikipedia user page or through my email listed on the survey page (or by Wikipedia email this user function).

The survey is accessible through the LINK HERE.

Sail Mohamed


Hi, would you mind doing a quick check of this article? Your edit to expand it last month added a couple unusual typos (like a period in the middle of a sentence) that look like they probably happened as you moved things around while revising what you'd written, and I just want to make sure that's not a sign of some error or something missing before I remove them. There's one sentence in particular that's gotten mangled in a way that I can easily see a fix for but might be indicative of a whole sentence that went missing while you were moving things around: Sail Mohamed was also a passionate anti-Stalinist, and rejecting support from the Red Aid in 1932 following his arrest., a front organisation of the French Communist Party. Thanks for expanding this article, btw! -- asilvering (talk) 20:09, 22 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]



@Asilvering: Go ahead and CE. I generally edit towards the later hours of the night so I'm not surprised the page needs a touch-up. I'm currently working on CLODO but plan to take Sail Mohamed to GA eventually. If you're considering taking this to GA, I'd be happy to help and do a co-nom.  Etriusus 03:58, 24 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

No plans! I just wanted to make sure I wasn't going to be ironing out a symptom of a larger problem than just a grammar error, like if you'd copy-pasted from a draft and accidentally overwritten part of the paragraph or something. It's hard to notice something like that has happened if someone else comes by and "fixes" things. I've done a CE pass on it now. -- asilvering (talk) 05:03, 24 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Per User talk:GoodHelper111


Well I edited list of child prodigies and added Srinivas Ramanujan to it because I read it on a page specifically dedicated to [[Srinivas Ramanujan 
Early life]]. So I kindly request you to read that page and revert your page. I am not offending you but just requesting you. Thank you.



@GoodHelper111:, I moved this conversation to its own section, please use the 'new section' function when starting a talk page discussion. Additionally, you can reply directly below my comment by using 2 colons and a 'user ping' (just copy the line of code I put in and change the name if you are unsure what that is). Lastly, please sign your posts, it took me a few minutes to figure out where this came from. The reason that edit was reversed is per WP:REF, all sources need to be cited by secondary, reliable sources. I don't doubt that Srinivas Ramanujan is likely a child prodigy, it was a good-faith edit. That being said, that page was protected due to prior people vandalizing it. If you wish to re-add Srinivas Ramanujan, please discuss it in Talk:List of child prodigies and cite a reliable, secondary source. I can see from your edit history you're a newer editor. I don't mean this to discourage you, I just want to explain it as best I can. For a good tutorial on how Wikipedia works, please go to The Wikipedia AdventureEtriusus 15:55, 8 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]


Delina Fico moved to draftspace


An article you recently created, Delina Fico, is not suitable as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. (?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of "Draft:" before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page.

Your submission at Articles for creation: Delina Fico (May 12)


 
Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed! Unfortunately, it has not been accepted because it included copyrighted content, which is not permitted on Wikipedia.  

Wikipedia cannot accept material copied from elsewhere, unless it explicitly and verifiably has been released to the world under a suitably-free and compatible copyright license or into the public domain and is written in an acceptable tone—this includes material that you own the copyright to.  You should attribute the content of a draft to outside sources, using citations, but copying and pasting or closely paraphrasing sources is not acceptable. The entire draft should be written using your own words and structure. Note to reviewers: do not leave copyright violations sitting in the page history. Please follow the instructions here.
 You are welcome to write an article on the subject, but please do not use copyrighted work.

@Moneytrees: I appreciate the sentiment, truly. I was rather taken aback when I saw the warning but I'm more thankful that Tol caught it and it was quickly resolved. Also thank you and Tol for reviewing the page Delina Fico, it was remarkably timely by Wikipedia standards (jk jk). Tol and I discussed the issue briefly here: User talk:Tol.


This copy-vio/poor citations issue seems to be a reoccuring theme with [This user] on the Albanian Wikipedia. I was preparing to translate [Sevim Arbana] but then I noticed the rather questionable citations and obvious copy-vios, also done by the same user. I still plan on translating it, but will likely have to start from scratch. I am frankly unsure if this is outside our jurisdiction but perhaps a message to the Albanian Admin team is in order. Cheers, Etriusus 20:22, 12 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Dealing with copyright violations on articles in other languages is immensely annoying for obvious reasons... I'm not sure what the Albanian equivalent of our Template:copypaste is, so I added a bunch of spaces and noted a copyright violation in an an edit summary. Hopefully some patroller there will come along and remove it. Moneytrees🏝️(Talk) 22:09, 12 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Hi there, Etriusus, and welcome to Women in Red. It's good to see that you are taking part in our translation contest and that you have already created three biographies of women. If you have not already done so, you might find it useful to look through our Primer for creating women's biographies. Please let me know if you run into any problems or need assistance. Happy editing!--Ipigott (talk) 09:42, 17 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Reference requirement?


Hi. Thank you for the welcome. I'm confused by the requirement for sources. Many of the various other sources for references in movies, TV shows, and video games don't have references, so I'm just confused why this is needed for this particular case, as most of these mentions are years old. Is this a new requirement? MalamuteBoy (talk) 19:12, 6 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]



@MalamuteBoy: First and foremost, welcome to Wikipedia!! The fact you reached out to me tells me that you really do aim to help improve wikipedia and if you ever need any help with other projects/issues, feel free to use the ping template and reach out to me. 😊


So the edit in question (here on the Party All the Time page) was reverted because there was no   reliable, secondary source provided. The edit, because you're a new account who was editing a Protected Page, ended up in the Pending Changes Log and I was the one who reviewed the edit. Since this edit ended up in the pending changes log, it unfortunately falls under a lot more scrutiny then general edits (see Wikipedia:Pending changes policy for more details).


Ideally, every line should be cited in Wikipedia. There are specific examples where the information is implicitly cited (like movie and video game synopse) but everything ideally should be cited. Some stuff obviously falls through the cracks (WP:PERFECTION); I can see a sentence on Party All the Time that lacks a citation and should realistically be cited. The page is a Stub, so it has a long way to go till it's WP:GA quality. Your edit is likely factually accurate but there was no citation. This is always been policy, albeit Wikipedia is 6.5 million articles and not every page can be reviewed in depth. Do you mind linking me a few of these examples?


As a general guideline, overcite, don't undercite. Its a good habit to get into here on wikipedia. If you want a tutorial, try The Wikipedia Adventure or maybe consider Wikipedia:Adopt-a-user. Hopefully this clarifies some stuff.

what is difference between British or English !?

@Abtin336: Are you referring to the reverted edit on William Blake? Please take it up on the talk page. The page uses "English" fairly consistently and changing it only 2 times just confuses the article. Please give edit summaries in English, not Persian. Also, when pinging users, please give context for the question, I had to dig a bunch to find what you were referring to. If Persian is your first language, please consider the Persian Wikipedia.

List of impostors pending changes revert


Your reversion of pending changes is attributed in edit summary as WP:Overcite, which relates to the Warren entry; I concur with this. However, that accounts for two of the three reverted edits; the other one dealt with other unrelated content and is not explained by the revert reason, so I thought I'd ask you to double check whether you actually intended to revert that as well or if it was collateral damage. Thanks. — 2406:3003:2077:1E60:C998:20C6:8CCF:5730 (talk) 16:57, 9 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
