Question from BeacHal1 (20:35, 6 May 2024)

[edit]

Hiyah! So, the editor that declined my most recent article has past on my revisions and it all seems a bit odd. They were being assessed at the time for a higher ranking on here… would you be able to revisit it and make sure that it’s still in the works. It seems as though that editor’s actions have caused it to be mothballed… and I saw you edited too. Thanks again --BeacHal1 (talk) 20:35, 6 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hello @BeacHal1, articles aren't reviewed in a specific order; there are currently 1,301 pending submissions. In the meantime, you might want to do a bit of basic copyediting as well as make sure that the article conforms to the Manual of Style, and even though it's just a guideline, it's still best to use this style guide so that articles are consistently formatted. (Here is an introduction to the Manual of Style) If you have more questions, don't hesitate to ask me using your Homepage or at the Teahouse and learn about editing Wikipedia through our introduction. Happy editing! ~~2NumForIce (speak|edits) 03:04, 7 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Hi, just sent you an email but please ignore! I’ve just realised I had a vpn setting on my iPad that meant I was auto-blocked. All good. Although, I have found it quite frustrating re my most recent article and the slightly bullying behaviour on here has put me off doing more!
I might reengage asp but life’s tough enough without a mob rule in Wikipedia too… BeacHal1 (talk) 20:54, 29 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Question from Eboedusa1 (20:05, 3 July 2024)

[edit]

Hi sir. Please can you guide me with tips for creating new page for a musicians. Thanks for the help --Eboedusa1 (talk) 20:05, 3 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hello @Eboedusa1, there are many policies and guidelines when it comes to conflict of interest editing (COI). Wikipedia strongly discourages COI editing as it could backfire and cause embarrassment, especially if not written in a neutral point of view.
Editors with a COI must disclose the COI, especially if you are being paid per the Terms of Use, in which case, there is a separate (but similar) process for disclosing paid editing.
COI editors are strongly discouraged to edit affected articles directly. Instead, use the {{Edit COI}} template to propose changes to an existing article and Articles for creation for creating a new article.
Creating a new article is a complicated process and you should learn editing and rules of Wikipedia and complete smaller tasks at the Task Center before creating a new article. You must make sure that the subject is notable enough for inclusion. Text on Wikipedia must be cited by reliable sources so that information is verifiable. Also, an article about yourself isn't necessarily a good thing, as you don't "own" what you write on Wikipedia.
When you're ready to create a new article, go to Help:Your first article, which will guide you through creating a new article. You should go through the entire page before proceeding to the Article Wizard. After creating a new article draft, it will be reviewed by an Articles for creation volunteer. Be patient; there are currently 1,301 pending submissions, and they are not reviewed in any specific order. In the meantime, you might want to do some basic copyediting so that the article is more likely to be approved.
The bottom line is, COI editing is just not a good idea. COI editing can cause many problems, and there are even legal consequences for hidden advertising mimicking a content format such as a Wikipedia article. If your company tells you to make or edit a Wikipedia article about them, tell them it can't be done. If you have more questions, don't hesitate to ask me using your Homepage or at the Teahouse and learn about editing Wikipedia through our introduction. Happy editing! ~~2NumForIce (speak|edits) 23:18, 10 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

[edit]

So, how do you add links to articles? --Theroeful (talk) 18:43, 9 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hello @Theroeful, and welcome to Wikipedia! It appears you may have a conflict of interest (COI) based on a deleted user page:

Editors with a COI must disclose the COI, especially if you are being paid per the Terms of Use, in which case, there is a separate (but similar) process for disclosing paid editing.

COI editors are strongly discouraged to edit affected articles directly. Instead, use the {{Edit COI}} template to propose changes to an existing article and Articles for creation for creating a new article.

If your company tells you to make or edit a Wikipedia article about them, tell them it can't be done.

To link to other articles in the wikitext editor, put two square brackets around the article's name. For example:

[[Wikipedia]]Wikipedia

If you want to change the text of the link, use a pipe symbol:

[[Wikipedia|The Free Encyclopedia]]The Free Encyclopedia

If you simply want to add a few extra letters to the end of the article name, just add them right after the brackets:

[[Encyclopedia]]sEncyclopedias

[edit]

How do i create the page? --Silalahisasustrapanggabeana (talk) 08:18, 10 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hello @Silalahisasustrapanggabeana, creating a new article is a complicated process. Before creating your first article, you should learn editing and rules of Wikipedia and complete smaller tasks at the Task Center.
First, is the subject you are editing closely related to yourself, family, friends, clients, employers, financial or other relationships (having a conflict of interest or COI)?
If you have a COI, click [show] to the right of this box for important rules

Editors with a COI must disclose the COI, especially if you are being paid per the Terms of Use, in which case, there is a separate (but similar) process for disclosing paid editing.

COI editors are strongly discouraged to edit affected articles directly and to write autobiographies. Instead, use the {{Edit COI}} template to propose changes to an existing article and Articles for creation for creating a new article.

Hello, I translated a page about Slavitza Jovan from the German Wikipedia, but it doesn't have any references, besides IMDb and All movie. Do I have to find references myself?

3.14 (talk) 21:05, 15 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hello @3.14159265459AAAs, sorry for the delay (working on other stuff). Per Wikipedia:Verifiability, [t]he burden to demonstrate verifiability lies with the editor who adds or restores material. Also, IMDb is user-generated and considered unreliable, and mostly same for AllMovie (which is operated by RhythmOne, who also owns other "All*" websites). You might want to see the verifiability policy, the reliable sources guideline, and Wikipedia:Reliable sources/Perennial sources for frequently discussed sources.

Question from Eymett (15:25, 17 August 2024)

Hi! I recently tried to request a media move/rename but I don’t think it worked. On the page for the rename media template, it says to just past the template into the file page. Trying to do that, I tapped edit on the File page and pasted the template with the appropriate parameters and saved the edit. Now when I look at the media page, it doesn’t display the actual template, but just the text that I entered. I also looked at the Cagegory:Wikipedia files requiring renaming where my request should have been automatically added, but I don’t see it there. Not sure exactly what to do. Would appreciate your help and thank you for being a mentor! --Eymett (talk) 15:25, 17 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

[edit]

Hi! I'm just starting so I'm sure I'll have many more questions later, but the main thing I've run into so far that I'm not quite sure how to tackle issues with tone. Do you have any recommendations on how to edit articles tagged as having an advertising or otherwise unencyclopedic tone to be more neutral, without removing the information itself? Thanks! --Evcentric (talk) 04:26, 28 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Welcome to Wikipedia, @Evcentric. The policy you're looking for is Wikipedia:Neutral point of view (NPOV), which essentially states that articles must be written from an impartial tone without bias, representing all significant views published by reliable sources without giving undue weight to minor opinions. There is a much stricter policy for living people. Wikipedia:What Wikipedia is not is about what is not acceptable in Wikipedia, such as promotion.
For an introduction on tone, see WP:TONE (essay, not a policy or guideline). A tutorial on editing Wikipedia is at Help:Introduction, which includes information about NPOV.

Editing Zero Waste

[edit]

Dear Nameunknown: I understand that you function as a mentor for someone wanting to edit. I once did a series of edits on the Zero Waste page but haven't for twenty years. I am at a point where editing (and just reading) seems to depend on a huge dictionary of exotic and arcane special forms, links to unknown pages, abnormal references etcetera. IOW, a very difficult enterprise to penetrate. For example, it took me much searching around to get to this message window and I really don't know where to expect the answer.

   I am the person who invented the term Zero Waste in 1974, long before all of these latecomers referred to came along. I created the signature company Zero Waste Systems Inc. which took on the most difficult of all the reuse programs,  the reuse of all the excess and unwanted chemicals (call them byproducts) coming first from Silicon Valley and then from all the laboratories in the SF Bay Area. It was a very successful company which I believe therefore set the tone for an effective interpretation of Zero Waste, far beyond the efforts of these dabblers who try to recycle a bit of plastic here or copper there. These amateurs who now write the page by and large are simply recyclers, who have had essentially no success in any of their ventures over the last fifty years but refuse to recognize their defeat and insignificance. I know how to directly confront and actually solve the problems of willy-nilly waste generation by making use of scientific approaches, something these parvenus have no concept of.
   You are wondering by now, why I am bothering to try to convince you of all this when your "job" is to help me edit. The reason is that I went to the page and found it so lacking, so erroneous, that I thought that the best way to correct the errors is to start a new page entitled Zero Waste Institute referencing the history of Zero Waste since I first entitled it and built around a reference to my website zerowasteinstitute.org, my book called Getting To Zero Waste in a second edition which entirely replaces the first and now obsolete edition that the existing article leads to in one of its references (using an old, obsolete Wayback Machine link) and a sales site linked to by gettingtozerowaste.com. Take at look at zerowasteinstitute.org to get an idea of the very large effort that is being sidelined and downplayed by the existing page which makes no mention of it (see especially PRINCIPLES and PROJECTS). Starting a new page seems like a serious effort which I am not prepared to take on at this time. In the preparatory materials which I read over on the subject of how to edit, starting a new page was held up as a particularly difficult subject. 
  By the way, as you can see, I have no respect for the people who are controlling the existing page Zero Waste. I believe they are mired in perpetual failure, pursuing irrelevant and meaningless efforts. This attitude turns off some people - perhaps you. Not only did I create and lead an actually successful company for reuse of chemicals, a company that has never been reproduced in the past fifty years, but I also have a PhD in Chemistry and am situated to understand scientific methods.
  Do you have any advice for me? I will take a look at the Wikipedia Adventure to see if there is anything useful there.

Paul Palmer Vacaville CA Zerowasteinstitute (talk) 20:25, 29 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hello @Zerowasteinstitute,
First, regarding your username: I have left a message on your talk page as your username appears to represent the Zero Waste Institute, not an individual, which is against the username policy. Before you edit, you should change your username
Subjects of Wikipedia articles must be notable, which means either meeting the general notability guideline (GNG) or a subject-specific notability guideline (SNG), which, in this case, is Wikipedia:Notability (organizations and companies). The notability guidelines mainly state that subjects who received significant coverage in independent, reliable sources are presumed to be notable. The Zero Waste Institute does not appear notable per the GNG nor the SNG as it has not appeared in reliable sources.
It also appears that you have a conflict of interest. There are many policies and guidelines when it comes to conflict of interest editing (COI). Wikipedia strongly discourages COI editing as it could backfire and cause embarrassment, especially if not written in a neutral point of view.
Editors with a COI must disclose the COI, especially if you are being paid per the Terms of Use, in which case, there is a separate (but similar) process for disclosing paid editing.
COI editors are strongly discouraged to edit affected articles directly and to write autobiographies. Instead, use the {{Edit COI}} template to propose changes to an existing article and Articles for creation for creating a new article.
Before creating a new article, you must make sure that the subject is notable enough for inclusion. Text on Wikipedia must be cited by reliable sources so that information is verifiable. Also, an article about yourself isn't necessarily a good thing, as you don't "own" what you write on Wikipedia.
When you're ready to create a new article, go to Help:Your first article, which will guide you through creating a new article. You should go through the entire page before proceeding to the Article Wizard. After creating a new article draft, it will be reviewed by an Articles for creation volunteer. Be patient; there are currently 1,301 pending submissions, and they are not reviewed in any specific order. In the meantime, you might want to do some basic copyediting so that the article is more likely to be approved.
The bottom line is, COI editing is just not a good idea. COI editing can cause many problems, and there are even legal consequences for hidden advertising mimicking a content format such as a Wikipedia article. If your company tells you to make or edit a Wikipedia article about them, tell them it can't be done.

Information icon I noticed that you have posted comments in a language other than English. At the English-language Wikipedia, we try to use English for all comments. Posting all comments in English makes it easier for other editors to join the conversation and help you. If you cannot avoid using another language, then please provide a translation into English, if you can. If you cannot provide a translation, please go to the list of Wikipedias, look in the list for a Wikipedia that is in your language, and edit there instead of here. For more details, see Wikipedia:Talk page guidelines. Thank you. ~~2NumForIce (speak|edits) 04:55, 1 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Question from Tangongephraim (16:15, 2 September 2024)

[edit]

what editing and how possible is it --Tangongephraim (talk) 16:15, 2 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hello @Tangongephraim, welcome to Wikipedia! First, is the subject you are editing closely related to yourself, family, friends, clients, employers, financial or other relationships (having a conflict of interest or COI)?
If you have a COI, click [show] to the right of this box for important rules

Editors with a COI must disclose the COI, especially if you are being paid per the Terms of Use, in which case, there is a separate (but similar) process for disclosing paid editing.

COI editors are strongly discouraged to edit affected articles directly and to write autobiographies. Instead, use the {{Edit COI}} template to propose changes to an existing article and Articles for creation for creating a new article.

The bottom line is, COI editing is just not a good idea. COI editing can cause many problems, and there are even legal consequences for hidden advertising mimicking a content format such as a Wikipedia article. If your company tells you to make or edit a Wikipedia article about them, tell them it can't be done.

A guide to editing Wikipedia is available at Help:Introduction. For student editing as part of a course, go to Wiki Education student training. There is also a single-page guide to contributing, and even an interactive training game, The Wikipedia Adventure.

When you're ready to edit articles, you can find some to edit on your Homepage and Citation Hunt to get rid of the [citation needed] tags. If you have more questions, don't hesitate to ask me using your Homepage or at the Teahouse and learn about editing Wikipedia through our introduction. Happy editing! ~~2NumForIce (speak|edits) 01:05, 6 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
