User talk:Bordercolliez

Welcome

Hello, Bordercolliez, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Unfortunately, one or more of your edits have not conformed to Wikipedia's verifiability policy, and may be removed if they have not yet been. Wikipedia articles should refer only to facts and interpretations that have been stated in print or on reputable websites or other forms of media. Always remember to provide a reliable source for quotations and for any material that is likely to be challenged, or it may be removed. Wikipedia also has a related policy against including original research in articles. As well, all new biographies of living people must contain at least one reliable source.

If you are stuck and looking for help, please see the guide for citing sources or come to the new contributors' help page, where experienced Wikipedians can answer any queries you have! Or, you can just type {{helpme}} on your user page, and someone will show up shortly to answer your questions. Here are a few other good links for newcomers:

I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Please sign your name on talk pages using four tildes (~~~~); this will automatically produce your name and the date. If you have any questions, check out Wikipedia:Where to ask a question or ask me on my talk page. Again, welcome! Falcon8765 ^(TALK) 15:00, 8 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Invitation to join WP:RRTF

Hello, Bordercolliez! I'd like to invite you to join the new Rick Riordan Task Force (formerly the "Percy Jackson" Task Force), which works to improve articles related to Rick Riordan and his books. Check out our project page or contact me to learn more! -- 2ReinreB2 (talk) 17:32, 12 November 2016 (UTC) [reply]

Your edits to The Lightning Thief were very good! I had no idea about the pseudonym, but when I checked up on it, it proved to be true. The Taskforce could really use someone with your eye for detail and ability to reference previously-unknown facts! Thanks again, 2ReinreB2 (talk) 17:32, 12 November 2016 (UTC).[reply]

Adam Wallace (author) moved to draftspace

An article you recently created, Adam Wallace (author), 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: Adam Wallace (author) (January 8)

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed! Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reason left by Mattdaviesfsic was:

This submission's references do not show that the subject qualifies for a Wikipedia article—that is, they do not show significant coverage (not just passing mentions) about the subject in published, reliable, secondary sources that are independent of the subject (see the guidelines on the notability of people). Before any resubmission, additional references meeting these criteria should be added (see technical help and learn about mistakes to avoid when addressing this issue). If no additional references exist, the subject is not suitable for Wikipedia.

Please check the submission for any additional comments left by the reviewer. You are encouraged to edit the submission to address the issues raised and resubmit after they have been resolved.

If you would like to continue working on the submission, go to Draft:Adam Wallace (author) and click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window.
If you do not edit your draft in the next 6 months, it will be considered abandoned and may be deleted.
If you need any assistance, or have experienced any untoward behavior associated with this submission, you can ask for help at the Articles for creation help desk, on the reviewer's talk page or use Wikipedia's real-time chat help from experienced editors.

See you there! Mattdaviesfsic (talk) 17:07, 8 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Concern regarding Draft:Adam Wallace (author)

Your draft article, Draft:Adam Wallace (author)

Hello, Bordercolliez. It has been over six months since you last edited the Articles for Creation submission or Draft page you started, "Adam Wallace".

In accordance with our policy that Wikipedia is not for the indefinite hosting of material deemed unsuitable for the encyclopedia mainspace, the draft has been deleted. When you plan on working on it further and you wish to retrieve it, you can request its undeletion. An administrator will, in most cases, restore the submission so you can continue to work on it.

Thanks for your submission to Wikipedia, and happy editing. Liz ^{Read! Talk!} 17:23, 8 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
