Hi

Hi i have a questionnaire how can i keep the second numbers of the episode list for good — Preceding unsigned comment added by Cneeds1390 (talk • contribs) 16:11, 21 July 2019 (UTC)

Hello, Cneeds1390. That is something you must discuss on the article's Talk page.--Quisqualis (talk) 21:44, 21 July 2019 (UTC)

Which is more valid, a preserved history 400 years old or a MYTH taught by most history professors?

The LENAPE HISTORY EXISTS.

Most professors, who teach American Colonial History, teach a MYTH.

https://lenapehistory.blogspot.com/2019/07/vanguard-invitation.html

 MYRON, @LENLAPE LAND.

Mydavidpaine (talk)

I think that a preserved history 400 years old is more valid, because the Lenape history information can be supported with WP:RS. American colonial history is not a myth because it existed. There are lots of evidence proving its existence. LPS and MLP Fan (LittlestPetShop) (MyLittlePony) 16:55, 20 July 2019 (UTC)

References

OU WROTE “Lenape history information can be supported with WP:RS.” I can not find where or how “Lenape History” is supported by WP:RS. Please explain how I can find the “support.” The “Lenape History” I refer to is chapter 3 of the Walam Olum. Wikipedia says that there is “significant evidence that the document is a hoax.” I dispute that statement. Every word of the Walam Olum can be traced to an Old Norse word and its meaning. I contend the Lenape History as preserved in chapter 3 of the Walam Olum is valid. To prove it is a “Hoax” you need to show me several recorded words that are NOT traceable to Old Norse. Mydavidpaine (talk) —Preceding undated comment added 21:00, 20 July 2019 (UTC) You wrote “American colonial history is not a myth because it exists.” I contend that American colonial history is a MYTH because the events that happened in the 17th century have been profoundly distorted. Many of the events have been left out. For example, tell me what happened at Jamestown in the years 1610 through 1614. I was not taught about the 300 fully armored men with the latest flintlocks, were you? I was not taught that those men pillaged 40 miles of the James river on both sides, were you. I was not taught that the church they captured in Henrico county had been built by Bishop Guppson, five centuries earlier, where you. I was not taught that Thomas Dale repeatedly raped Pocahotas, in that church, were you? I was taught that she married John Ralph. So were you. But I was not taught that she named her son for the father-Thomas. I was not taught that a fourteen cannon frigate full of those men sailed up the coast to in 1612 to destroy churches, were you? I was not taught that the people in those churches were Catholics, who spoke Norse, were you? We, you and I, were taught a MYTH where the facts of colonial America have be suppressd by omission. The professors teach the MYTH.Mydavidpaine (talk) —Preceding undated comment added 21:27, 20 July 2019 (UTC)

Hello, Mydavidpaine. First, the appropriate place for a discussion on the content of an article is the talk page of that article. Secondly, Wikipedia relies on reliable published secondary sources: primary sources can be used only in limited ways, and only to provide additional detail on a matter covered in secondary sources. I'm not sure what it is you are arguing, but I can tell you that unless your interpretation of a historical text has been published in a reliable scholarly source, then Wikipedia will not take note of it. Please also see FRINGE. --ColinFine (talk) 21:56, 21 July 2019 (UTC)

How to add images which not have copyright

I want to add image to a page which has no copyright. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Sujay 1803 (talk • contribs) 16:19, 21 July 2019 (UTC)

@Sujay 1803: Check out WP:FUW. Interstellarity (talk) 18:12, 21 July 2019 (UTC)

Hi Sujay1803. How do you know that the image you want to use has no copyright? Unless you've created the image yourself, generally anything you find published somewhere in print or online is going to be assumed to be copyrighted unless it clearly states otherwise. If no information at all is provided about an image's copyright status, then it's best to assume that it is copyrighted. Just for reference, something created by someone else which can be freely copied (even if you purchased the work the image is being used in) doesn't necessarily mean the same thing as "free from copyright protection". In other words, you can buy a magazine, newspaper, or book but that doesn't make you the copyright holder of the content (text or images) contained in therein. You can buy a music CD or movie DVD, but that doesn't make you the copyright holder of the music or the movie. You can freely access (with paying a fee) the website of a political party, sports team or company, but that doesn't make you the copyright holder of the content found on their websites. So, you might want to take a look at c:Commons:Licensing and Wikipedia:Copyrights#Guidelines for images and other media files for more specific information about this. You might also want to ask for help at Wikipedia:Media copyright questions and provide more details about the actual file you want to upload. -- Marchjuly (talk) 00:33, 22 July 2019 (UTC)

Yera Lee

I made an article for a child model called Yera Lee. After. I wrote it it said that I didn't have reference and if I didn't add it then it would be deleted in 7 days. the problem is I am trying to add the references in and trying to edit it but it keeps saying "error not saved",I am not quite sure what to do. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Arikim123 (talk • contribs) 12:24, 21 July 2019 (UTC)

@Arikim123:, welcome to the Teahouse. It's hard to know exactly why you are getting this issue - perhaps you are trying to add a blacklisted link as a reference? I think you'd get a slightly different error message in that case, though. (What is the reference you are trying to add?) Could you try using a different device to edit the page and see if you still have problems saving? --bonadea contributions talk 13:14, 21 July 2019 (UTC)

The thing is I use another device and it still keeps saying Error but even if I EDIT a word or something it wont work. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Arikim123 (talk • contribs) 00:41, 22 July 2019 (UTC)

Hi Arkim123. The first thing might be to take a look at Wikipedia:Too soon and Wikipedia:Notability (people) because if you're unable to establish that Yera Lee is Wikipedia notable enough for a Wikpedia article to be written about her, adding sources is not really going to prevent the article from being deleted. Adding one source will take care of the WP:BLPPROD tag, but the article still would be unlikely to survive a discussion at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion.

The next thing to probably take a look at is Wikipedia:Plain and simple conflict of interest guide. If by chance you have some kind of personal or professional connection to Lee, you probably shouldn't really be trying to write an article about her in the first place. If she's truly Wikipedia notable enough for an article to be written, someone completely unconnected to her most likely will someday right such an article. You can ask someone to do just that by posting a request at Wikipedia:Requested articles or you can maybe try asking for help at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Korea, Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Taiwan or even at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Actors and Filmmakers

As for adding references to articles, it's hard to understand why your getting an error message without seeing exactly what you're trying to add. Are you following the advice given in Help:Referencing for beginners; if not, try doing what's suggested there. If you're doing what's suggested and still having problems, then there may be an issue with the link your trying to add. Start a discussion at Talk:Yera Lee and see if you can add the link there. If you can then perhaps Bonadea, myself, or another editor can figure out why your having problems. When you add the link to the article's talk page, go to the top of the page and and click "New section". Then, add a section heading in the "Subject/headline" window and then add the link and the describe the problem your having in main editing window. You can add the links as described in WP:EL#How to link. At the end of your post, please add your signature, and then click "Show preview" to check that everything OK. If it is, click "Publish changes" and someone will try and figure things out. -- Marchjuly (talk) 01:30, 22 July 2019 (UTC)

Questions about references, citing

I stick to copyediting on here & have questions concerning an article I'd like to edit. It's titled Chup! ,about a music album. Unfortunately, it's filled with so much personal bias, that most of the article needs either reworded or deleted. I'm still learning; thanks for your patience!

QUESTION 1) My edits will significantly change the content & size of this article; are there any steps I should take before I begin, like posting on the article or author's talk-page? (I've read about "good faith", but also about edit-wars). QUESTION 2) I'm unable to get Reference #1 link to work correctly. I don't know how to fix or remove it. Is it ok to fix everything else but leave a "broken-link" template behind? QUESTION 3) Because Reference #1 link doesn't work, I'll need another source to maintain the "3 source requirement". I'm not very familiar with what constitutes a reliable source --when it comes to music-- and was surprised to see that the source used for Reference #2 was just a music selling site called "CdBaby". Does this source actually count, and if so, do other music-selling sites count as well? QUESTION 4) When it comes to citing a source during or after a sentence, If the same source is used to create content in more than one paragraph, do I place multiple inline citations/footnotes, or just place one at the end of the section, like the author did?

When replying, if you can start each answer with QUESTION 1..,etc, it'll help me comprehend it better. (disabled body, abled heart :) Thanks! MinorEnglishMajor (talk) 01:09, 22 July 2019 (UTC)

Courtesy: the article is Chup! (Note italics). I 100% agree the article is not in neutral point of view (NPOV). Wikipedia philosophy is be bold in making changes (explaining what you did in Edit summary), and if reverted, discuss at the article's Talk page. David notMD (talk) 03:32, 22 July 2019 (UTC)

Hello, MinorEnglishMajor. I agree with the above advice. Looking at the article's history, it was started by a now-banned user, and, by today's standards, would not be approved as an article, given it has at best 2 reliable sources. Be bold and clean it up!--Quisqualis (talk) 03:43, 22 July 2019 (UTC)

Request to have an article created, unsure where it fits.

I've tried to figure out how to create an article myself, but to my dismay, I just don't get it.

I'd like to create an article for Non-Emergency Medical Transportation. This is a benefit available to many people on Medicare/Medicaid who need assistance getting to doctors appointments.

Where would this fit? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Smngg7 (talk • contribs) 16:07, 18 July 2019 (UTC)

Advice is available at WP:Your first article. David Biddulph (talk) 18:16, 18 July 2019 (UTC)

That does not help me figure out what category this article should go in. --Smngg7 (talk) 19:41, 18 July 2019 (UTC)

Smngg7, Category:Ambulance services? Gråbergs Gråa Sång (talk) 19:54, 18 July 2019 (UTC)

I would like to ask Smngg7 why he is concerned about a "category." That's usually tacked on after the article is accepted. Anyway, I will ask him on his Talk page. BeenAroundAWhile (talk) 05:01, 22 July 2019 (UTC)

How can an independent source know about me?

||ॐ||
Is wikipedia intently biased? How can a person in front who does not experience my direct experiences write correctly about my experiences? Is such not the case with you all? If such is the case why insist a independent source and not myself while writing my experiences? ॐ Tat Sat (talk) 14:59, 21 July 2019 (UTC)

Please see the replies you received here. --bonadea contributions talk 15:07, 21 July 2019 (UTC)

(ec)The place to write about your experiences is a personal blog or a social media update. No one should be writing on Wikipedia about their own or others' experiences. Wikipedia summarises information that is published out there so anyone looking for information can get a brief overview of the subject and a place to start looking for reliable sources that have worked and published on the subject that they are interested in. Wikipedia promises no more. Usedtobecool ^✉️ ✨ 15:12, 21 July 2019 (UTC)

"No one should be writing on Wikipedia about their own or others' experiences." which in-short means, if the references are biased, wikipedia is going to remain biased? It is just going to re-iterate the references and not allow truth to come out? What else can justify the truth other than match with a direct experience? If a direct experience does not match, the reference is a fake one? ॐ Tat Sat (talk) 06:24, 22 July 2019 (UTC)

@AUMSat: On the other hand, everybody is inherently biased when it comes to their own experiences. We may think they are more, or less, important than an objective person who doesn't know us would, for instance. So yes, Wikipedia does rely on published sources and not on personal experience, but is of course concerned with the sources being reliable. If there is an article about you on Wikipedia, and if there are obvious factual errors (that can be checked by other persons), you can use the talk page of that article and post the code {{edit request}} followed by the details about the change(s) you want to make.

Follow-up to Wikipedia:Teahouse/Questions/Archive 983#How to prevent my article to be deleted

Dear All,

I received a notification my draft article Draft:Eurodiaconia is being considered for deletion. I did not intend to breach any wikipedia guidelines and am hoping to receive some feedback in order to understand what I did wrong when editing and how to fix it. Thanks — Preceding unsigned comment added by JAmbrogi (talk • contribs) 08:46, 22 July 2019 (UTC)

One thing which would assist reviewers of your draft would be if you were to provide expanded citations in place of bare urls. --David Biddulph (talk) 09:01, 22 July 2019 (UTC)

Thanks William. I have now changed the format of my references and added more independent sources. Please let me know if anything else is missing. JAmbrogi (talk) 10:04, 22 July 2019 (UTC)

Edited an article and submitted it but only the old article shows not the new updates ?

Hi,

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Khalifa_University

I edited this article on wikipedia with the latest updates , references and citations. But suddenly new updated article is not showing only the old one is, why has this happened.

Thank you in advance. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Suneetduggal (talk • contribs) 09:49, 22 July 2019 (UTC)

Hi Suneetduggal - if you look at the edit history of the article, you'll see that another user reverted your changes. In their edit summary, they noted that all your updates were based on the university website. If that is correct, they were probably right to revert your changes - per RS, we rely on independent secondary sources over affiliated sources. If you think their revert was in error, and you have reliable secondary sources to support the changes that you want to make, you should start a discussion on the article talk page. Cheers GirthSummit _(blether) 10:10, 22 July 2019 (UTC)

@Suneetduggal: Your edits were removed by GorgeCustersSabre (talk · contribs) with this edit because they relied solely on primary sources that are not reliable. Regards SoWhy 10:11, 22 July 2019 (UTC)

What's up with sexual allegation coverage on Wikipedia?

the place to debate policy issues is the village pump, not here. Feel free to come back if you have a question on how to edit Wikipedia. John from Idegon (talk) 18:07, 22 July 2019 (UTC)

I consider this as a meta-issue and find it appropriate to discuss. Currently, I am in a discussion at Talk:Neymar. But that's not my issue here, RFC is the place to go for that. My problem is that why are these types of issues getting covered up so often? Certainly a sexual assault allegation is not the same as a football transfer rumor, isn't it? Maybe this is a result of gender gap of registered users? I am up for open discussions. Interested articles are also up at Wikipedia:Wikipedia Signpost, the latest edition. THE NEW ImmortalWizard(chat) 16:57, 22 July 2019 (UTC) One aspect could be that per WP:Biographies of living persons, anything considering a LP and a crime (alleged or not) requires really, really, really good sources, not to mention adherence to WP:PROPORTION etc. Gråbergs Gråa Sång (talk) 17:39, 22 July 2019 (UTC) Edits like [1] should be very obviously wrong.

How to upload my profile image?

I can't update my profile image! — Preceding unsigned comment added by 105.112.1.223 (talk) 18:44, 22 July 2019 (UTC)

That depends on who you are and what you are trying to edit- but Wikipedia does not have "profiles"; Wikipedia has articles. Information on uploading images can be found at WP:UPIMAGE. 331dot (talk) 18:47, 22 July 2019 (UTC)

I am guessing that there is an existing article about you, with an image of you. You could take a selfie, and there is a process for adding that. You may have a professional photo you want to use, but that is complicated, as the photographer probably 'owns' the photo. David notMD (talk) 19:28, 22 July 2019 (UTC)

Editing important sections of articles

Hello, I am interested in adding to articles that have stubs within them, e.g. the plotline of a video game article being a stub. I've been working on and off to draft something to add to these sections. However, I'm not sure if I need to ask for these to be reviewed, since they'd be more substantial edits. Is it necessary or common practice to get large additions to articles reviewed? Thanks in advance. Bossjeff (talk) 17:04, 22 July 2019 (UTC)

No Bossjeff. Follow policy as best you can, in your edits. Then, be BOLD about adding them. If someone comes and reverts it or substantially modifies it, start a discussion in the page's talk page and come to a consensus on what the best version of the article is. WP:BRD cycle, that's it. Good luck! Usedtobecool ^✉️ ✨ 17:26, 22 July 2019 (UTC)

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Draft:Sony_Cyber-shot_DSC-WX500 — Preceding unsigned comment added by EPICGAMER890 (talk • contribs) 09:36, 22 July 2019 (UTC)

Hi EPICGAMER890 - I've taken a look at the article, and there are a few issues which jumped out at me.

• Some of the text is addressing the reader in the second person ("your image", "you can") - we don't do that in articles.
• There's also a little bit of WP:EDITORIALISING ("But, of course, you can still...") - try to avoid using phrases like 'of course', or 'obviously' or anything like that - just give the factual information.
• You're also using Sony's website as a source a couple of times - I'd remove that if possible, and rely purely on the independent secondary sources, per WP:RS.
• The appearance and material section seems to incorporate an external link, which isn't necessary, and a bit of possibly puffy language (pristine - is that a brand name, or a description?), and it's entirely unsourced.
• Some of the other information isn't obviously sourced, like the list price (which doesn't specify the currency - I assume that's US dollars, but could be Canadian, Australian, Singaporian...)
• I don't think the History section needs to be broken down into bullet points. You could simply say in prose that it was first produced in April 2015, and is still in production as of July 2019.
• Finally, and perhaps most importantly, I don't think the current sourcing establishes notability. This is a commercial product, so WP:CORPDEPTH guidelines for sourcing apply. The EPhotoZine source is a pretty detailed and I think goes part of the way towards establishing notability, but but require multiple such sources. The DPReview one is very short, it pretty much lists the features - I don't think that would count towards notability. I can't comment on the 'camera decisions' source, it's giving me a 404, perhaps there's a mistake with the URL? The other refs are all affiliated (Sony websites), so as it stands I don't think we've established notability. Try to find at least one more in-depth review, along the same lines as the EPhotoZine one.

I hope that's helpful. Cheers GirthSummit _(blether) 10:05, 22 July 2019 (UTC)

Hello EPICGAMER890 and welcome to the Teahouse. Please understand that drafts are reviewed by volunteers based on their capacities. Requesting a review on the Teahouse or somewhere else is unlikely to speed up the process since there is no reason why your draft should get preferential treatment. Regards SoWhy 10:07, 22 July 2019 (UTC)

It's unlikely to speed up the process. But it may well result in good advice (like that given by Girth Summit), which, if taken, will lead to a draft that is more likely to be accepted once it is reviewed. Maproom (talk) 21:42, 22 July 2019 (UTC)

I want to write about a company

Hello All,

Please I am willing to write about a company and I tried creating one, but was flagged for deletion, can someone guide and tell me what I'm getting wrong? — Preceding unsigned comment added by O'blues (talk • contribs) 06:44, 22 July 2019 (UTC)

Hi O'blues. It looks like the administrator who deleted your "sandbox" is CambridgeBayWeather; I cannot see your sanbox, but perhaps CambridgeBayWeather can clarify what the problem was. You can post a message at User talk:CambridgeBayWeather and ask. In general, only companies deemed to be Wikipedia notable per Wikipedia:Notability (organizations and companies) are considered OK to write an article about; moreover, articles aren't supposed to be written to promote the company, but rather only reflect the kind of significant in-depth coverage the company is receiving from reliable sources independent of the company. In other words, Wikipedia isn't really interested (for the most part) in what the company might have to say about itself, or helping the company expand its business; it's only interested in neutrally worded content (both positive and negative) which can be verified through citations to reliable sources. -- Marchjuly (talk) 06:58, 22 July 2019 (UTC)

(edit conflict) Hello O'blues, and welcome to the Teahouse. That a company exists is not enough for it to have a WP-article, the bar is higher than that. For example, the company's own websites can not be used as an argument that it should have a WP-article. Take the time to read WP:NORG and WP:Your first article. Gråbergs Gråa Sång (talk) 07:01, 22 July 2019 (UTC)

(edit conflict) @O'blues: You've got a message at your talk page User talk:O'blues#Speedy deletion nomination of User:O'blues/sandbox which explains what you got wrong: ‘the page seems to be unambiguous advertising which only promotes a company, (...) and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become encyclopedic’. In other words, with a bit of exaggeration, it was about how wonderful the company is, not about what the company is. Please see WP:TONE for some hints on writing objective articles.

As your first article, it was probably about a company you know closely, possibly from working at it. Please read carefully a policy on WP:Conflict of interest, which requires disclosure in case you have COI. The more if the COI results from your job – then stronger requirements defined in WP:PAID policy apply.

It might also happen the company doesn't appear that important to the rest of the world as you think. Please see the general guidelines on notability: WP:N, as well as specific guidelines that apply to companies: WP:NCORP.

If you're sure the subject is notable enough, you must demonstrate that by proper referencing – see the WP:VER policy, which describes how to select appropriate sources and how to use them to support Wikipedia articles. --CiaPan (talk) 07:25, 22 July 2019 (UTC)

Patrice de Camaret – (born Guillain Louis Patrice Marie de Camaret, 02 January 1952) a French/ Brazilian national, is the principal partner of Squanto Cayman – a single family office, with offices in Sao Paulo, London and NY.

Hello, Pdecamaret. I suggest you save what you have written on this page, then review a few important Wikipedia articles, and do as they recommend. The articles are: WP:Your first article, WP:Autobiography, WP:Notability, WP:Reliable Sources, WP:Citing sources.--Quisqualis (talk) 17:38, 22 July 2019 (UTC)

@Pdecamaret: I couldn't see any evidence that reliable, independent sources like newspapers or books have taken notice of you and have written about you and your life in some detail. Only then would you meet our Noability threshold for inclusion into this encyclopaedia. Until that happens you remain one of millions of other nice people for whom LinkedIn and Facebook must suffice.

broke the page

Talk:Book censorship in China I followed the instructions to apply the peer review tag but it didnt work and the purge button doesn't work either. I don't want to edit this page because its apparently very controversial. should it be protected since some editors dont like any content to be changed to some articles even if it's well referenced? It would be very helpful for editors to do this so other editors dont waste their time adding to it if it's a pet project. 49.198.7.235 (talk) 04:53, 22 July 2019 (UTC)

Hi IP 49.198.7.235. It's pretty hard to "break" a Wikipedia page and pretty much every mistake can be fixed by simply WP:UNDOING the problem edit. So, you can also self-revert your edit if you feel you accidentally created a problem. Just make sure to leave an edit summary explaining why. As for page protection, that's only really done to stop serious cases of ongoing disruption when other attempts to do so have been tried and failed; pages aren't really "locked" just to prevent certain editors from editing them. If you disagree with some of the edits being made to the article, try and follow Wikipedia:Dispute resolution and engage these other editors on the article's talk page. You can also try Wikipedia:BOLD, revert, discuss cycle too, but make sure you don't get caught up in any edit warring. Wikipedia is a collaborative editing project and it's OK to be WP:BOLD when you edit, but on controversial subjects it sometimes is better to be WP:CAUTIOUS. -- Marchjuly (talk) 07:07, 22 July 2019 (UTC)

thankyou- i reverted the talk page to remove the peer review link I added. I also reverted the article. Please check my edit comment. I had to provide a clear explanation for the edit. But the explanation had to be somewhat vague due to the subject matter which could potentially violate wikipedia:BLP Wikipedia:Etiquette. I am unsure of how to comply with both sets of rules. 49.198.7.235 (talk) 04:00, 23 July 2019 (UTC)

Kundan Srivastava wiki

Hi Team,

I know that some people tried to submit an article about Kundan Srivastava and the article was rejected 3-4 times a few years before because of lack of resources.

Now he has a lot of of sources. Can we have a Wikipedia profile of Kundan Srivastava? Can you verify his reliable sources are mentioned below. I’ll be highly grateful to you.

If you allow then will submit the article about Kundan. He’s a noted Indian human rights activist. Below is the google knowledge panel source.

Surbhi20 (talk) 18:15, 15 July 2019 (UTC)

Surbhi20, this appears to be reference bombing. Many of the sources you cite do not mention Srivastava at all, and those which do (at least on a spot check) seem only to be a name drop or brief mention. No number of mentions or name drops results in notability. The requirement is that multiple independent and reliable sources (which your top two are not) cover the subject in depth, not just mention them. That still does not seem to be the case here. If you have some sources you believe satisfy that requirement, please note two or three of those and those particular ones can be evaluated, but a bunch of passing mentions won't do the trick. Seraphimblade ^{Talk to me} 19:43, 15 July 2019 (UTC)

Seraphimblade,

Thankyou for your reply. Sir, all the sources I cite do mention Srivastava’s works.

I understood your words for the independent and multiple sources that you mentioned.

Out of these 6 sources mentioned below ..how many you consider as reliable sources for Wikipedia?

Surbhi20 (talk) 02:31, 16 July 2019 (UTC)

Surbhi20, hi - I'm afraid that from a quick check, none of those sources look suitable to me. I've never heard of 'Celebrityborn', 'writingtipsoasis' or 'bepositive' before, but none of them look like reliable sources with reputations for fact checking to me. The name of 'popularwikibio' implies that it is UGC, so also not reliable. INVC might be a bit better, but to be honest that looks like a rehashed press release, and winning a non-notable award (we don't have an article on it, so I assume it is not notable) doesn't make the subject notable. Is there any significant coverage of him in national news media? That would be a good start. GirthSummit _(blether) 14:03, 16 July 2019 (UTC)

Thankyou so much for making me understand. Will search his significant coverage of national news media and will get back to you soon.

For your main question ‘Can we have a Wikipedia profile of Kundan Srivastava? ’ the answer is: NO.
Wikipedia is not social media (see WP:NOTSOCIALMEDIA) – we don't have 'profiles' of anyone. We have articles about notable subjects, with specific criteria of notability (see WP:NOTABILITY). --CiaPan (talk) 06:45, 17 July 2019 (UTC)

Profiles of topics (or people) didn't originate with social media. Any Wikipedia article could reasonably be called a profile of its subject. Let's not allow corporations to steal the language! —{{u|Goldenshimmer}} (they/their)｜Talk｜Contributions 03:11, 20 July 2019 (UTC)

I understand what CiaPan is saying, but the original poster (whose native language does not seem to be English) probably means the word as "a short article giving a description of a person or organization." And we DO have those. Sincerely, BeenAroundAWhile (talk) 04:08, 23 July 2019 (UTC)

Verifiable resources behind paywalls?

Hello community,

I am a new member in Wikipedia community. I am currently drafting my first article. In general, I know how references work and are required for verification. But, I am skeptical as they are behind paywalls (for e.g. NYTimes). Is there any article on Wikipedia knowledge base around choosing such articles for references? If so, can one guide me to the article?

Thanks in advance. Adiosvr (talk) 22:39, 22 July 2019 (UTC)

AdithyavrHello and welcome to the Teahouse. Please read WP:PAYWALL; a paywall is not a barrier to using a source on Wikipedia. Sources must be verifiable, but they do not need to be easy to access or free to access. 331dot (talk) 22:44, 22 July 2019 (UTC)

(edit conflict) Hey, welcome to Wikipedia! Not all reliable sources can be easily accessed, due to paywalls, but also because they may be print-only and exclusively in university libraries, or even in only one special museum/library. This doesn't matter, as long as these sources exist and are reliable, they may be used. If you cannot access a source, you can ask someone else to access it at WikiProject Resource Exchange. --MrClog (talk) 22:47, 22 July 2019 (UTC)

Thanks a lot for the reply! This helps. I thought adding resources that have paywalls might make it difficult for other editors to verify them, resulting in the article deletion or roll back of changes. Hence, the question. But, based on the answers, I feel I don't really have to worry about that. Adiosvr (talk) 22:58, 22 July 2019 (UTC)

Such sources might be harder to verify which might make some editors question their value. Some editors are more accepting of such sources when they come from organiztions that have a pretty well-established reputation for editorial control and reliability (e.g. a major newspaper), but they may be more skeptical of sources which are less well established or otherwise appear a bit shakely per WP:RS. In the latter case, you might be asked to provide some more clarification about the source by others. There are also ways to format a citation which indicate whether it can be freely accessed by anyone or requires some kind of subscription/registration. You can see one way this is done in Template:Cite news#Subscription or registration required, but there are other ways as well. Regardless of whether there's a paywall or not, you should have read the source yourself and verified it says what you're claiming it says if you want to use it; if you yourself can't access it, then you probably should avoid it or try to find someone who can.

Finally, although sources behind paywalls can be cited as citations, they pretty much shouldn't ever be used as external links per item 6 of WP:ELNO. -- Marchjuly (talk) 04:47, 23 July 2019 (UTC)

Notability issue in the biography

I might face notability issue in the biography of my great grandfather who happens to be a freedom fighter and thus i want to create biography of him as a homage but i have no idea how to get notability as requested by wikipedia . Pl. help me out Your sincerely Tejas Jain — Preceding unsigned comment added by Tejaskumarjain (talk • contribs) 06:17, 23 July 2019 (UTC)

Hi Tejaskumarjain and welcome to the Teahouse. Your great grandfather cannot have a Wikipedia article unless he has been written about in independent WP:Reliable sources. If you cannot find these, then you will have to create your homage elsewhere. Sorry to disappoint you, but Wikipedia, as an encyclopaedia, reports only what has been written about elsewhere. If you have some possible sources, then you might like to mention then here so that we can guide you as to whether they establish the WP:notability of your great grandfather. Dbfirs 06:42, 23 July 2019 (UTC)

(edit conflict) Hi Tejaskumarjain.

1. Wikipedia articles are only really intended to be written about subject considered to be Wikipedia notable, and when it comes to writing articles about people the primary guideline is Wikipedia:Notability (people); so, unless you able to establish that your grandfather is Wikipedia notable for an article to be written about him, it's unlikely that either you or anyone else will be able to do so.
2. Since you obviously have a personal connection to your grandfather, you would be considered to have a Wikipedia:Conflict of interest with respect to anything written about him on Wikipedia. Wikipedia doesn't expressly prohibit conflict-of-interest editing, but it doesn't highly discourage it. Editors trying to create articles about family members is one thing that is particularly discouraged per WP:COISELF; so, it would actually be better to let someone else write the article (assuming your grandfather is Wikipedia notable).
3. Lots of people mistake Wikipedia articles for things they aren't really intended to be; for example, articles are not intended to be memorials or homages. So, if that's really why you want to create an article about your grandfather, then Wikipedia is probably not the best place for you to do so. Lots of people also mistakenly assume that creating an article means that they will be able control the article, but that's not really how Wikipedia works. Anyone can edit any article at anytime, and no one particular editor has any final editorial control over things. So, even if you're able to create an article about your grandfather, you'll not have any special power of editorial control. Other editors will be able to freely add or remove content (postive or negative) that they deem to be in accordance with relevant Wikipedia policies and guidelines and you won't be able to stop from doing so simply because the article is about your grandfather. You will be expected to follow relevant policies and guidelines just like everyone else. For more on this, please see Wikipedia:Dispute resolution and Wikipedia:An article about yourself isn't necessarily a good thing.

Talk pages

I have a lot of different subjects on my talk page? Is it okay to remove old subjects that have not been edited in a really long time? Billiekhalidfan (talk) 00:10, 23 July 2019 (UTC)

Hi Billiekhalidfan. If by "my talk page" you mean "my user talk page", then you can remove posts per WP:BLANKING; there are some things you're not suppose to remove, but most things you can. Even though there will still be a record of the posts and who made them in the page history, many editors prefer to WP:ARCHIVE their talk pages instead. There are various different way to archive a page: some editors set up automatic archiving, while others do it manually. Archiving helps to keep older posts organized and easy to find, but it's not mandatory.

If, however, you're talking about an article talk page, then you probably shouldn't really be deleting any posts unless there's a very good policy or guideline reason to do as explained in WP:TPO. Article talk pages can also be archived, but it would probably be a good idea to discuss this first on the talk page itself to see what other think. -- Marchjuly (talk) 00:33, 23 July 2019 (UTC)

@Billiekhalidfan: My advice is to urge you to create an 'archive', as advised above. I can see that you're keen to contribute, but are probably also rather strong-willed? And this has led to some conflict and a few stern warnings on your talk page? I'm sure you'd like the older ones to be less visible, but I also see that one of our experienced admins (Ad Orientem) has been trying to guide and support you. Right now, a few other editors seem to feel you're a bit of a 'loose cannon', but I'm sure that'll change once you come to appreciate how to listen and to work cooperatively with other editors. I advise against simply deleting, rather than archiving those early notices because (whilst allowed) it nevertheless makes me suspicious of an editor's motives and attitudes. An editor who blanks old problematic messages effectively invites me to look into their past editing, whilst also making me irritated that I have to waste a lot morr time delving into their past talk page interactions and warnings, rather than simply popping over to an archived sub-page. (If I have to leave warnings, or report an editor, I'm then far more likely to take a much sterner approach than if every past problem they had were clearly in view for me to understand. I'd be suspcious that theyre intentionally avoiding scrutiny, and I might then start looking for the reason. As you learn and improve as an editor, those embarassing old messages will be in you past, and something to proudly look back at and make you see how far you've come in learning to contribute and collaborate. I'm convinced you'll have a smoother ride if you archive, rather than blank them. Hope you find this informal bit of guidance of value. Regards, Nick Moyes (talk) 04:38, 23 July 2019 (UTC)

Ok, I have added an archive. Thank you for your help! Billiekhalidfan (talk) 12:23, 23 July 2019 (UTC)

I've seen quite a few articles with such headers, and also a few in need of them. How are they added? Theanswertolifetheuniverseandeverything (talk) 13:12, 23 July 2019 (UTC)

They are added by adding the right templates. You can find a list here. --MrClog (talk) 13:16, 23 July 2019 (UTC)

You can also add them more easily by installing WP:twinkle. Although a word of caution - adding cleanup templates is very easy and doesn't contribute a whole lot; actually fixing things takes a bit more time but is far more valuable. There's no harm in adding cleanup messages, they serve a useful purpose when used with care. Just be a little bit judicious about which articles really need them, and whether you could also be spending your time fixing the problems within the articles. Good luck.
