Re: Santikaro Draft Rejection[edit]

Hi Toadette, this is Peacefu-D, the user who wrote Santikaro's biography which was rejected by you yesterday. The main reason was "not enough secondary sources.

I wanted to ask if you took a careful look at the references in that article numbered: 1, 4, 10, 11, 12, 14, 15 and 16. All eight of these are secondary sources that satisfy the Wikipedia definition. They have nothing to do with Santikaro himself - they are magazines and other establishments who have decided to write up a summary about him. In particular, references #12 and #15 in that article are both central repositories of numerous teachings by well-known teachers.

Before starting that article, I did an extensive search for secondary sources. I believe the ones I've included are pretty much it. I don't know what to do now: there are other teachers who are similar to Santikaro but not nearly as accomplished but they all have a Wikipedia page on here.

If you have any suggestion, I would greatly appreciate it: should I 1) find more secondary sources ?? (What's wrong with the 8 listed above?) 2) make it clear that the secondary sources included are it, e.g, I can remove some of the primary sources (since there are so many publications, books, articles by him, but that would under-represent his contributions to the world).

Thank you very much for any pointers, Peaceful-D — Preceding unsigned comment added by Peaceful-D (talk • contribs) 19:55, 25 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

June 2024[edit]

Information icon Hello. Regarding the recent revert you made: you may already know about them, but you might find Wikipedia:Template index/User talk namespace useful. After a revert, these can be placed on the user's talk page to let them know you considered their edit inappropriate, and also direct new users towards the sandbox. They can also be used to give a stern warning to a vandal when they've been previously warned. Thank you. Galebazz (talk) 18:02, 24 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Advice for counter-vandalism[edit]

Remember to warn the person who you reverted after reverting their edits! Good work otherwise, you've beat me to a lot of these diffs lol. Jdcomix (talk) 16:32, 27 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
