October 2020[edit]

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:List of Critical Menstruation Research topics. 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. Nathan2055^{talk - contribs} 20:14, 13 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Your submission at Articles for creation: List of Critical Menstruation Research topics (October 14)[edit]

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed! Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reason left by Nathan2055 was:

Wikipedia is not an indiscriminate collection of information. Please consider either adding this information to one of the articles you listed or adding additional context to this draft in order to show why this list should receive a separate article. Thank you for your contributions!

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 when they have been resolved.

If you would like to continue working on the submission, go to Draft:List of Critical Menstruation Research topics and click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window.
If you now believe the draft cannot meet Wikipedia's standards or do not wish to progress it further, you may request deletion. Please go to Draft:List of Critical Menstruation Research topics, click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window, add "{{Db-g7}}" at the top of the draft text and click the blue "publish changes" button to save this edit.
If you do not make any further changes to your draft, in 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.

Hello, Drkirstyross! Having an article declined at Articles for Creation can be disappointing. If you are wondering why your article submission was declined, please post a question at the Articles for creation help desk. If you have any other questions about your editing experience, we'd love to help you at the Teahouse, a friendly space on Wikipedia where experienced editors lend a hand to help new editors like yourself! See you there! Nathan2055^{talk - contribs} 03:19, 14 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Sandbox draft[edit]

Heya! Fixed a couple of categories - I figure that journalists from The Times / Sunday Times would just go under The Times? If not, we could create a new category, nested under the appropriate place in category:Journalists by publication in the United Kingdom. Would also suggest adding the image to the infobox - you could even crop her husband out and make a new derivative in Commons :) Not sure if info about her husband would go in the lead, feels more appropriate lower down. And the info about being in the third cohort might go in the lead, perhaps? Looking good so far! Lirazelf (talk) 15:30, 1 April 2021 (UTC) drkirstyross (talk) Thanks! Have now published my first article! Thanks for the help[reply]

Trainerkirsty[edit]

Is Trainerkirsty yours? If so, I suggest you clearly mark it on the users pages (User:Trainerkirsty, User:Drkirstyross) with Template:User alternative account or other clear sign. If this is not your account, then we should ask for it to be blocked because it says it is you. Pikavoom ^Talk 09:11, 15 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
