Hello, and thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. This is just a note to let you know that I've moved the draft that you were working on to Draft:Bobo Explores Light, from its old location at User:Coel Jo/sandbox. This has been done because the Draft namespace is the preferred location for Articles for Creation submissions. Please feel free to continue to work on it there. If you have any questions about this, you are welcome to ask me on my talk page. Thank you. — Frayæ (Talk/Spjall) 10:05, 29 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Help with article?

Hi!

I'm Ed. I was looking at the list of participant of the Wikipedia Apps project and noticed you are the most recent member to join. I wonder if you might be willing to give some feedback to some suggested changes I have for the article about the app Letgo, which is the second most downloaded iOS app? The suggested changes are here: Talk:Letgo#Reactivating_Edit_Request. I should note that while I am a very experienced Wikipedia editor, I have a conflict of interest as a consultant to Letgo, which is why independent review is so critical. Best wishes, BC1278 (talk) 20:11, 4 December 2018 (UTC)BC1278[reply]

Wikipedia and copyright

Hello Coel Jo, and welcome to Wikipedia. Your additions to Draft:Kiwaka have been removed in whole or in part, as they appear to have added copyrighted content without evidence that the source material is in the public domain or has been released by its owner or legal agent under a suitably-free and compatible copyright license. (To request such a release, see Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission.) While we appreciate your contributions to Wikipedia, there are certain things you must keep in mind about using information from sources to avoid copyright and plagiarism issues.

You can only copy/translate a small amount of a source, and you must mark what you take as a direct quotation with double quotation marks (") and cite the source using an inline citation. You can read about this at Wikipedia:Non-free content in the sections on "text". See also Help:Referencing for beginners, for how to cite sources here.
Aside from limited quotation, you must put all information in your own words and structure, in proper paraphrase. Following the source's words too closely can create copyright problems, so it is not permitted here; see Wikipedia:Close paraphrasing. (There is a college-level introduction to paraphrase, with examples, hosted by the Online Writing Lab of Purdue.) Even when using your own words, you are still, however, asked to cite your sources to verify the information and to demonstrate that the content is not original research.
Our primary policy on using copyrighted content is Wikipedia:Copyrights. You may also want to review Wikipedia:Copy-paste.
If you own the copyright to the source you want to copy or are a legally designated agent, you may be able to license that text so that we can publish it here. Understand, though, that unlike many other sites, where a person can license their content for use there and retain non-free ownership, that is not possible at Wikipedia. Rather, the release of content must be irrevocable, to the world, into the public domain (PD) or under a suitably-free and compatible copyright license. Such a release must be done in a verifiable manner, so that the authority of the person purporting to release the copyright is evidenced. See Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials.
In very rare cases (that is, for sources that are PD or compatibly licensed) it may be possible to include greater portions of a source text. However, please seek help at Wikipedia:Media copyright questions, the help desk or the Teahouse before adding such content to the article. 99.9% of sources may not be added in this way, so it is necessary to seek confirmation first. If you do confirm that a source is public domain or compatibly licensed, you will still need to provide full attribution; see Wikipedia:Plagiarism for the steps you need to follow.
Also note that Wikipedia articles may not be copied or translated without attribution. If you want to copy or translate from another Wikipedia project or article, you must follow the copyright attribution steps in Wikipedia:Translation#How to translate. See also Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia.

It's very important that contributors understand and follow these practices, as policy requires that people who persistently do not must be blocked from editing. If you have any questions about this, you are welcome to leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. — Diannaa 🍁 (talk) 00:23, 12 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

WikiProject Apple Inc.

Hello Coel Jo,

You've been identified either as a previous member of the project, an active editor on Apple related pages, a bearer of Apple related userboxes, or just a hoopy frood.

WikiProject Apple Inc. has unexpectedly quit, because an error type "unknown" occured. Editors must restart it! If you are interested, read the project page and sign up as a member. There's something for everyone to do, such as welcoming, sourcing, writing, copy editing, gnoming, proofreading, or feedback — but no pressure. Do what you do, but let's coordinate and stay in touch.

See the full welcome message on the talk page, or join the new IRC channel on irc.freenode.net named #wikipedia-en-appleinc ^connect. Please join, speak, and idle, and someone will read and reply.

Please spread the word, and join or unsubscribe at the subscription page.

RhinosF1^(chat)_{(status)(contribs)} and Smuckola on behalf of WikiProject Apple Inc. - Delivered 15:00, 18 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Hello @RhinosF1: and @Smuckola:,

Thank you for your message. I'll be glad to contribute, mainly in topics related to iOS educational content.

Best regards,Coel Jo (talk) 23:56, 18 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@Coel Jo: I looked at one of your iOS app articles, Back in Time (iOS App), and it's pretty good. You're crankin em out. I hope you can maintain top level WP:RSes and make many articles but I know there's a lot of apps out there, so there will be a lot of awards and coverage. And you're covering a current product, so they're all online! lol You should join Wikipedia:WikiProject_Apple_Inc./iOS_task_force, and add the WikiProjects Apps, iOS, Apple, Computing, and maybe Education or Science to the Talk pages. Check and see if those are relevant. The User:Kephir/gadgets/rater tool is handy for that. — Smuckola (talk) 02:37, 19 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@Smuckola: I'm glad you liked the article and thank you for the suggestions. I'll use them to improve the articles I've written so far... and thank you for the Barnstar :)

Best regards, Coel Jo (talk) 00:15, 21 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@Coel Jo: I'm glad you signed up, because you're already doing the work so you may as well be recognized as a boss, for it. I wasn't commenting on all your articles, just a couple, so if you keep them at that quality level then that's good. It was kinda nutty that one person tagged the warning that it was written like an advertisement because it was not in any way. You gotta keep the WP:RSes tight, because the world is spammed with apps and app review sites, and I imagine there's a lot of astroturfing as standard marketing. A WP:RS is defined by our analysis of its author credentials and editorial oversight. So some of them are fairly universal to Wikipedia, like CNN and like many of the news sources you've used. Ya know what I'm saying? They scrutinize that concept very close at WP:VGRS and maybe you'd like to create such a list, however small, for WP:APPLE. If you made a list of common WP:RS for iOS app reviews and overviews, and any notes on how to research them, that could go on the Resources page for the iOS Task List kinda like what I started here for WP:APPLE. What do you think? Thank you very much! — Smuckola (talk) 03:31, 21 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@Smuckola: I'm not familiar to some of the Wikipedia procedures and it took me a while to understand what you are asking of me :) I can prepare a small list for WP: Apple (I know a few reliable websites that cover the Apple Universe). For iOS app reviews is a bit harder: I believe most of the review websites ask developers payment to get their software reviewed... but I can dig a little bit and come out with some basic guidelines. I will discuss them with you before I publish them. Is this OK? Best regards, Coel Jo (talk) 02:28, 24 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

iOS Barnstar, March 2019

		Good job on creating new articles, and on making good quality WP:RS content. — Smuckola (talk) 02:50, 19 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

File:Screenshot of the iOS app Bobo Explores Light.jpg

Hi, I'm RonBot, a script that checks new non-free file uploads. I have found that the subject image that you recently uploaded was more than 5% in excess of the Non-free content guideline size of 100,000 pixels. I have tagged the image for a standard reduction, which (for jpg/gif/png/svg files) normally happens within a day. Please check the reduced image, and make sure that the image is not excessively corrupted. Other files will be added to Category:Wikipedia non-free file size reduction requests for manual processing. There is a full seven-day period before the original oversized image will be hidden; during that time you might want to consider editing the original image yourself (perhaps an initial crop to allow a smaller reduction or none at all). A formula for the calculation of the desired size can be found at WP:Image resolution, along with instructions on how to tag the image in the rare cases that it requires an oversized image (typically about 0.2% of non-free uploads are tagged as necessarily oversized). Please contact the bot owner if you have any questions, or you can ask them at Wikipedia talk:Non-free content. See User:RonBot for info on how to not get these messages.

iOS update

Greetings good INDV. Since I updated my IPad recently I've had trouble editing Wikipedia. I'm not asking for help with my IPad, I looked up how it should function and it does, just not on Wikipedia and Amazon. Since you seemed to be knowledgeable on such topics I thought maybe you might have heard of other people having such problems or have some useful info. Thanks in advance. Dorromikhal (talk) 16:03, 30 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Forgot to say this, I've been experiencing trouble with moving the cursor, selecting text and using links Dorromikhal (talk) 16:05, 30 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Hello @Dorromikhal,

Sorry for taking a while to come back to you. I usually work on a mac but I know that there are some limitations on working in mobile devices. Please take a look at Wikipedia: Editing on mobile devices#Technical limitations.
