I was going to drop you a line about the difference between {{cite DNB}} and {{DNB}}, because of your edits the new article you created Samuel Sidley however I see that you created that article on 18 September 2022 and three days later you created Edward Gibson (painter)‎ on 21 September 2022‎ and by then you had worked it out yourself.

There are many of these types of template triplicates see User:PBS/Notes#List of PD Templates for a list of some of them. Given you area of interest shown by those two articles. You might find {{Bryan (3rd edition)}} and {{Bryan (1903 edition)}} of some use. If you have need of {{cite Bryan (3rd edition)}} let me know and I will create it.

Two other points:

• Please see Where to place attribution in the Plagiarism guideline.
• If you find a book that you would like to include in an article but it is not cited please place it in a "Further reading" or "External links" section below the section containing the bullet pointed list of full references. This makes it easier to keep track of what is used to support the text in the article and what is not.

Other than that I think the two articles I have had a look at are a useful contribution to Wikipedia. I am not as active as I one was but if I can help in you in any way please let me know on my talk page.

-- PBS (talk) 17:58, 21 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Oh yes there is one other point I wanted to mention. There is a project group for the Wikisource DNB to Wikipedia articles Wikipedia:WikiProject Dictionary of National Biography and coupled to that is the Wikipedia:WikiProject Missing encyclopedic articles/DNB Epitome if you create articles such as you did please update the list and double tick their entries in that list. Often the entry in the DNB Epitome (see the footnotes on the pages next to the subject's name) makes a good basis for the lead in the Wikipedia article, or for creating a stub of an article. -- PBS (talk) 18:05, 21 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

In the article William Wilkins (educator) you had an entry in the sources section:

• Laughton, J. K.; Lambert, Andrew (2004). "Williams, Robert (1765–1827), naval officer". Oxford Dictionary of National Biography. Oxford University Press. Retrieved 11 September 2022.
• Marshall, John (1823). "Williams, Robert". Royal Naval Biography. Volume I, Part II. London: Longman, Hurst, Rees, Orme, and Brown. pp. 856–861.

There is a template {{cite ODNB}} for such entries:

Netherzone (talk) 18:22, 21 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Hi thanks for creating this article. When we translate or borrow from other language wikis it’s a requirement to acknowledge the source. The best way to do this is to include it in your edit summary (e.g. “translated from fr.wiki”) and there’s also a translation template you can add to the talk page. If you can confirm where material for this article was sourced I’ll add the template to the talk page for you. Happy editing and please leave a message on my talk page if you need any help Mccapra (talk) 20:50, 9 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I didn't actually translate that article from the German article. I wrote it based on the English-language Benezit. I did include the German-language sources from the German wiki article as "further reading", so I guess I did copy that. 𝕱𝖎𝖈𝖆𝖎𝖆 (talk) 20:54, 9 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, and thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you tried to give a page a different title by copying its content and pasting either the same content, or an edited version of it, into William Duthie (author). This is known as a "cut-and-paste move", and it is undesirable because it splits the page history, which is legally required for attribution. Instead, the software used by Wikipedia has a feature that allows pages to be moved to a new title together with their edit history.

In most cases for registered users, once your account is four days old and has ten edits, you should be able to move an article yourself using the "Move" tab at the top of the page (the tab may be hidden in a dropdown menu for you). This both preserves the page history intact and automatically creates a redirect from the old title to the new. If you cannot perform a particular page move yourself this way (e.g. because a page already exists at the target title), please follow the instructions at requested moves to have it moved by someone else. Also, if there are any other pages that you moved by copying and pasting, even if it was a long time ago, please list them at Wikipedia:Requests for history merge. Thank you. Liz ^{Read!

Hello, Ficaia,

Thank you for creating Francis Washburn.

I have tagged the page as having some issues to fix, as a part of our page curation process and note that:

Thanks for the article, but it really needs some work - there are sources on the page, but they are not used to link to any facts in the article! The only reference is, confusingly for readers, to 'Heitman' - where the fact - and many more given in the article - could easily be sourced to a reference in one of the works you have listed under 'sources' using the 'Cite' tool. Facts should be linked to a citation...

The tags can be removed by you or another editor once the issues they mention are addressed. If you have questions, leave a comment here and begin it with {{Re|Alexandermcnabb}}. Remember to sign your reply with ~~~~. For broader editing help, please visit the Teahouse.

@Dumelow: Thanks for taking the time to really flesh out the article :) BTW, one sentence you added to the article seems to cut of mid sentence: "On one occasion Wynne, found that marker posts, used by the garrison to determine rifle ranges in case of attack and to delineate the route of a new approach road, were being moved at night by the."

Hi, I see you've been creating some naval officer articles; thanks! I note however that long-standing precedent on Wikipedia for Royal Navy officers is for the disambiguation to be "(Royal Navy officer)" or "(Royal Navy officer, died 2000)", etc. It's been argued over the years but for now that's still the trend. Cheers, Pickersgill-Cunliffe (talk) 15:20, 15 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks, I'll rename the articles. I think for concision "naval officer" might be a better disambiguation, unless there are two notable naval officers of the same name from different navies. 𝕱𝖎𝖈𝖆𝖎𝖆 (talk) 10:40, 16 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for creating Portrait of Doge Andrea Gritti.

I have tagged the page as having some issues to fix, as a part of our page curation process and note that:

Thank you for creating this page on a notable painting by Titian! I would recommend adding more sources, including: Cole, Bruce. Titian And Venetian Painting, 1450-1590. N.p.: Taylor & Francis, 2018 (it discusses Michelangelo's Moses statue as a possible inspiration, which is important to mention); Vinet, Angelle M. James McNeill Whistler an Evolution of Painting from the Old Masters: Identified By Two Missing Masterpieces. N.p.: Lulu Publishing Services, 2017 (the work's influence on some of Whistler's portraits); additional potentially helpful resources are also available on the Met Museum's website in reference to the version made by his workshop, which is in the museum's permanent collection (and which you included in the article) https://www.metmuseum.org/art/collection/search/437830.

Hi, a question about the page William Loring Nunez Spencer, which you've made the majority of contributions to. While this person was born William Loring Nunez (an interesting story on its own), and was latter married to George E. Spencer, per WP:COMMONNAME, I wanted to suggest that May Nunez may be a more appropriate article title. Looking at period reporting via newspapers.com gets 100+ relevant hits on "May Nunez" vs. zero on "William Loring Nunez Spencer". Dmoore5556 (talk) 22:46, 6 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I've moved the article to May Nunez as you suggest. 𝕱𝖎𝖈𝖆𝖎𝖆 (talk) 23:08, 6 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

A tag has been placed on Thomas Jefferson Towles 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 http://files.usgwarchives.net/tx/smith/bios/txgray/towlestj.txt. 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.

Hello, Ficaia. The new pages patrol team is currently struggling to keep up with the influx of new articles and redirects needing review. We could use a few extra hands to help. I believe that someone with your activity and experience is very likely to meet the guidelines for granting. Reviewing/patrolling a page doesn't take much time, but it requires a strong understanding of Wikipedia’s CSD policy and notability guidelines. Kindly read the tutorial before making your decision, and feel free to post on the project talk page with questions. If patrolling new pages is something you'd be willing to help out with, please consider applying here. Thank you for your consideration. We hope to see you around!

Hi Ficaia. Your account has been added to the "New page reviewers" user group. Please check back at the permissions page in case your user right is time-limited or probationary. This user group allows you to review new pages through the Curation system and mark them as patrolled, tag them for maintenance issues, or nominate them for deletion. The list of articles awaiting review is located at the New Pages Feed. New page reviewing is vital to maintaining the integrity of the encyclopedia. If you have not already done so, you must read the tutorial at New Pages Review, the linked guides and essays, and fully understand the deletion policy. If you need any help or want to discuss the process, you are welcome to use the new page reviewer talk page or ask via the NPP Discord. In addition, please remember:

• Be nice to new editors. They are usually not aware that they are doing anything wrong. Do make use of the message feature when tagging pages for maintenance so that they are aware.
• You will frequently be asked by users to explain why their page is being deleted. Please be formal and polite in your approach to them – even if they are not.
• If you are not sure what to do with a page, don't review it – just leave it for another reviewer.
• Accuracy is more important than speed. Take your time to patrol each page, including checking for copyright violations using Earwig's copyright violation detector, checking for duplicate articles, and evaluating sources (both in the article, and if needed, via a Google search) for compliance with the general notability guideline.
• Please review some of our flowcharts (1, 2) to help ensure you don't forget any steps.
• Use the message feature to communicate with article creators and offer advice as much as possible.

The reviewer right does not change your status or how you can edit articles. If you no longer want this user right, you also may ask any administrator to remove it for you at any time. In cases of abuse or persistent inaccuracy of reviewing, or long-term inactivity, the right may be withdrawn at administrator discretion. If you can read any languages other than English, please add yourself to the list of new page reviewers with language proficiencies. Hey man im josh (talk) 14:37, 13 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Hello fellow editor! I was doing some article clean up and stumbled into the above article. It's well sourced and laid out, however I'm worried it's not written in a very encyclopedic manner (though I personally like a bit of flowery language every now and then). I didn't want to tag it because it's not really a huge deal, just maybe something to adjust. I can assist if needed! :) Lindsey40186 (talk) 02:02, 7 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hello,

The Wikimedia Foundation is conducting a survey of Wikipedians to better understand what draws administrators to contribute to Wikipedia, and what affects administrator retention. We will use this research to improve experiences for Wikipedians, and address common problems and needs. We have identified you as a good candidate for this research, and would greatly appreciate your participation in this anonymous survey.

You do not have to be an Administrator to participate.

The survey should take around 10-15 minutes to complete. You may read more about the study on its Meta page and view its privacy statement .

Please find our contact on the project Meta page if you have any questions or concerns.

Kind Regards,

WMF Research Team
