User talk:DoggiestDoggo

Welcome!

Hello, DoggiestDoggo, and welcome to Wikipedia! I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Unfortunately, one or more of the pages you created, such as TX2, may not conform to some of Wikipedia's content policies and may not be retained. In short, the topic of an article must be notable and have already been the subject of publication by reliable and independent sources.

Please review Your first article for an overview of the article creation process. The Article Wizard is available to help you create an article, where it will be reviewed and considered for publication. For information on how to request a new article that can be created by someone else, see Requested articles. If you are stuck, come to the Teahouse, where experienced Wikipedians can help you through the processes.

New to Wikipedia? Please consider taking a look at our introductory tutorial or reviewing the contributing to Wikipedia page to learn the basics about editing. Below are a few other good pages about article creation.

Proposed deletion of TX2

The article TX2 has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

No notability, no independent sources, only primary links with pretty low subscriber and view figures. Will propose for AFD in about a week if no improvements provided.

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.

Speedy deletion nomination of Douglas Spink

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.
You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on Douglas Spink requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page appears to be an unambiguous copyright infringement. This page appears to be a direct copy from https://www.king5.com/amp/article/news/drug-smuggler-arrested-in-bestiality-case-in-wash/281-409876474. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images taken from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. You may use external websites or other printed material as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. This part is crucial: say it in your own words. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.

If the external website or image belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text or image — which means allowing other people to use it for any reason — then you must verify that externally by one of the processes explained at Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials. The same holds if you are not the owner but have their permission. If you are not the owner and do not have permission, see Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission for how you may obtain it. You might want to look at Wikipedia's copyright policy for more details, or ask a question here.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.

Use of block quotes

Hello, DoggiestDoggo! Given the above copyright notice, I wanted to reach out to you about using block quotations. Block quotes are useful to separate quotes that are introduced in the text and are more than 40 words or so. The blocking is useful as it can sometimes get confusing to know when a quote starts/stops when it's long. On the Douglas Spink page, you used block quotes to provide information about Spink from other sources, but you didn't integrate the quotations into the body of the article. This can make it difficult as a reader to fully understand the the quotation and why you are providing it. For now, I have removed the block quotes because I did not feel they added to the article. However, if you believe the information provided was useful, please integrate the quotations in a more useful manner. Thank you!

October 2023

Your edit to Shipping (fandom) has been removed in whole or in part, as it appears to have added copyrighted material to Wikipedia without evidence of permission from the copyright holder. If you are the copyright holder, please read Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials for more information on uploading your material to Wikipedia. For legal reasons, Wikipedia cannot accept copyrighted material, including text or images from print publications or from other websites, without an appropriate and verifiable license. All such contributions will be deleted. You may use external websites or publications as a source of information, but not as a source of content, such as sentences or images—you must write using your own words. Wikipedia takes copyright very seriously, and persistent violators of our copyright policy will be blocked from editing. See Wikipedia:Copying text from other sources for more information. — Diannaa (talk) 13:51, 25 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Even if the edit doesn't violate copyright, it was so badly written and the sourcing was done in such a way that it was hard to verify anything stated. Having it on that page does nothing to help readers. In fact, it results in further confusion. Two of the sources used were from weird and undoubtedly unreliable Freedom of the Mind (a private consulting and coaching service). Another was from a Google doc (self-published). Not sure about 'The Social Animal. While the articles from Samantha Aburime (one in 2023, another in 2021), Blackwell et al., and another by Alice Marwick, seem good, the use of unreliable sources in the section undermines the entire addition, and arguably, invalidates it. If such a section should be added at all, there should be discussion and crafting of the section by multiple users, not someone doing fly-by editing.Historyday01 (talk) 15:46, 25 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]
