Hi there, I'm pleased to inform you that I've begun reviewing the article Calutron Girls you nominated for GA-status according to the criteria. This process may take up to 7 days. Feel free to contact me with any questions or comments you might have during this period. Message delivered by Legobot, on behalf of Caeciliusinhorto -- Caeciliusinhorto (talk) 09:20, 20 February 2022 (UTC)

Hi I don't understand why the changes we made were accepted and then altered back to previous version. The changes were minor and reflect recent news articles about Vanessa Alexander and the fact her series just came out on Netflix last Friday. We updated the sources to more recent ones in a few places and added Vikings:Valhalla as a notable work. We also removed works listed in the filmography that are of no significance as they are not listed in on the imdb database. Viragogirl (talk) 03:28, 28 February 2022 (UTC)

Hi, Viragogirl, and thanks for the question! It looks to me like I dream of horses meant to revert just this edit where you removed works listed in the filmography, because she thought you didn't provide an adequate explanation for why you removed the items, and that she accidentally reverted your other edits as well. Your other edits look fine to me.

Really what this comes down to is a content dispute: should the less significant films Alexander was involved with remain on her article? They are supported by a reliable-looking source (the link doesn't work, but it can be found archived here), but I agree with you that they don't seem as significant, especially since I can't find any mention of films such as Granda (2010) anywhere besides that NZ On Screen website. This isn't my area of expertise, so I don't know what the general guideline for inclusion is here.

Right now, you've done the correct thing, which is to follow the Bold, revert, discuss cycle: you made a BOLD edit, someone else disagreed with it, you're discussing it. The next step would be to wait for I dream of horses to respond to your message on your talk page and continue the discussion with her; if you don't reach a conclusion, you could consider asking WikiProject Actors and Filmmakers for input, as they might have relevant advice on the content dispute.

You also observed correctly that you made a mistake in labeling your edits as minor. Take a look at Help:Minor edit- only edits such as spelling corrections, formatting changes, or rearrangement of text without modification of the content should be marked as minor, not significant adding or removing of content.

One last note- I'm slightly concerned by your use of "we" in your message above. Per WP:SHAREDACCOUNT, there should only be one person operating your account. This also raises another flag: are you editing for pay or with a conflict of interest? If so, you should disclose this and follow the relevant guidelines, which I just linked. (If this was just a mistake and you're editing simply because you're interested in Vikings: Valhalla, no worries; your edits themselves are generally fine.) Aerin17 (t • c) 05:23, 28 February 2022 (UTC)

Oops- after submitting this, I see that I dream of horses responded and recognized that she made a mistake in reverting your edits- so you're totally good. Feel free to ask if you have any more questions! Aerin17 (t • c) 05:25, 28 February 2022 (UTC)

Hi, User:Aerin17, and thanks for helping me. Do not be concerned about the use of we please unless it is not ok to know the writer. I am not working for money. I was just trying to improve the entry as most of the references to her work are from a site. No one else is operating on this account and the we is a friend who helped teach me to code the box. I will make sure I read what you sent above and correct this too. Apologies. I'm sure you explain these matters all the time and I will do my best to fix this up.Viragogirl (talk) 05:36, 28 February 2022 (UTC)

(Note- I fixed your comment indentation and the typo in my username) No worries! You're off to a good start with your edits, and I did volunteer to answer questions, after all :) I am still a bit concerned about COI, though: unless it is not ok to know the writer- are you implying that you know Vanessa Alexander? If so, that would certainly be considered a conflict of interest. It's okay to edit when you have a COI, but you have to be very careful to do so properly and follow the applicable guidelines. Aerin17 (t • c) 05:53, 28 February 2022 (UTC)

Oh, psst, Viragogirl, you should know that IMDB is not a reliable source for citations. See WP:IMDB. I'll let you work out the citations yourself because you seem to have it under control, but please know that the NY On Screen site is actually considered more reliable than IMDB. Aerin17 (t • c) 06:02, 28 February 2022 (UTC)

Hi, User:Aerin17, and thanks again. Apologies you had to fix the typo - I probably still have it wrong as the reason I had someone helping me is that I am not very good with code! I am so sorry I did not follow the guidelines above and did not realise I needed to disclose that I know Vanessa. The changes are very boring and straightforward and disclose no personal information of hers. I corrected the imdb references where I could. Do I need to undo these changes and do the changes again after disclosing COI or can you look at them and decide if it is ok. I will make no more changes to her article without declaring COI now that I understand. Forgive me. For both not being aware and also my bad indentation and typos outside of my normal word program. Viragogirl (talk) 07:21, 28 February 2022 (UTC)

It'll take me a bit to go through your edits and check all the sources and such- I'll get back to you later today. For now, I'd recommend reading WP:Conflict of interest thoroughly, if you haven't already. It's okay that you didn't follow the guidelines if you didn't know! Just do your best now that you do :) Aerin17 (t • c) 15:24, 28 February 2022 (UTC)

The article Calutron Girls you nominated as a good article has passed ; see Talk:Calutron Girls for comments about the article. Well done! If the article has not already appeared on the main page as a "Did you know" item, or as a bold link under "In the News" or in the "On This Day" prose section, you can nominate it within the next seven days to appear in DYK. Bolded names with dates listed at the bottom of the "On This Day" column do not affect DYK eligibility.

Just a quick note to say that I've listed the article as a GA under Wikipedia:Good articles/History#North American history as I didn't think that either of the subcategories under Wikipedia:Good articles/Natural sciences#Physics were really appropriate; if you think there's a better place for it feel free to reclassify.

I would like to edit the Wikipedia page about me. How do I do this please? --Simonobtv (talk) 21:25, 2 March 2022 (UTC)

Hi Simonobtv, and welcome to Wikipedia! Please read WP:Autobiography. In summary, editing the article about yourself is strongly discouraged, because it is very hard to write neutrally about yourself. If there are changes you'd like to make, you can propose them on the talk page of the article using {{request edit}}. I see that you have already made edits to Simon O'Brien (presenter) (presumably you), and I'm going to undo those as they violate the autobiography policy and are not supported by sources. If you'd like to request that another editor make them for you, feel free to do so, but make sure to provide reliable sources. Aerin17 (t • c) 22:55, 2 March 2022 (UTC)

Hello, I changed the page of Universum College with information from the Universum College webpage so copyrights should not be a problem. Can you please help me return the page as it was on my last edit? --Xhenis.behluli (talk) 14:03, 14 March 2022 (UTC)

Hi, Xhenis.behluli, and welcome to Wikipedia! I'm afraid I cannot restore your edits, as they violate several Wikipedia policies. Namely, Wikipedia cannot contain copyrighted material (yes, including copyrighted info from the Universum College website), Wikipedia must be written in a neutral tone, and editors with a conflict of interest must follow specific conflict of interest guidelines. I urge you to please read those three pages I just linked, and I'm happy to answer more questions if you have them. Aerin17 (t • c) 16:01, 14 March 2022 (UTC)

Hello, I am here to post my company profile on your esteemed website so people can learn about my company if they ever search here. --Vaishali Pharma Limited (talk) 11:08, 25 April 2022 (UTC)

Hello, Vaishali Pharma Limited, and welcome to Wikipedia. I'm afraid that you're misunderstanding a few things about how Wikipedia works. For one thing, Wikipedia is not a place to promote your business. Entities may only have a Wikipedia article if they are notable, not because you want to post about them. If people want to learn about your company, they can visit your website. In any case, if you are looking to write an article about your company, you must be careful to follow Wikipedia's conflict of interest policy.

You should also be aware that your username violates Wikipedia's username policy. Namely, you may not use a username that represents the name of a company, group, organization, product, service, or website. In order to continue editing, you will need to change your username or create a new account.

Does this all make sense? If you understand, and you would still like to go through with writing a Wikipedia article about your company, I'll be happy to walk you through your next steps. Be aware, however, that this is a hard process, and it is likely that any promotional article you write will not be approved. Aerin17 (t • c) 16:44, 25 April 2022 (UTC)

Hi, I would like to create an articale for a singer, how can I do its? thanks --Oferzm (talk) 15:38, 30 April 2022 (UTC)

Hi, Oferzm, and welcome to Wikipedia! I see you have already started an article at Draft:Maya Kuriel, and that this draft has been declined. Before you put any more work into this, you’ll want to check that the singer is notable enough to be included on Wikipedia. WP:NMUSIC should provide useful guidance. If she is notable according to those guidelines, you’ll need to find several reliable sources demonstrating this notability and supporting the statements in the article. Once you’ve found these sources, I can point you to resources about how to put them in the article, but first you must make sure these sources exist. If you can’t find any, it’s a good sign that she isn’t notable enough to have an article yet, and your energy will be better spent elsewhere. Aerin17 (t • c) 23:00, 30 April 2022 (UTC)

Qenzore Inc, I assume you mean getting into Wikipedia? There are lots of ways to go about it. For instance, your user homepage gives you some suggested edits to try out. You could also look into the Wikipedia Adventure or simply the tutorials at Help:Introduction. Ultimately, the best way to start editing Wikipedia is simply to start. If, in your day-to-day reading of Wikipedia, you spot a page with a citation needed tag or a typo, just be bold and fix it.

Does that all make sense? If you have questions, I'm happy to give more specific guidance. Aerin17 (t • c) 16:12, 7 June 2022 (UTC)

Pawsitivelypowerful, I don’t see anything in your contributions. Do you remember what the page was called? Either you submitted it under another account, or it could have been deleted. Aerin17 (t • c) 04:03, 19 June 2022 (UTC)

Yeah I just realized it was deleted. I guess I have to work on finding secondary sources for it. Thanks. Pawsitivelypowerful (talk) 04:18, 19 June 2022 (UTC)

Guess I'm not sure where to find more secondary sources on an annual event... Pawsitivelypowerful (talk) 04:20, 19 June 2022 (UTC)

I'm not sure how to mark these as finished but I figured this out please ignore this one. Pawsitivelypowerful (talk) 04:51, 19 June 2022 (UTC)

How do I reorder references without removing and re-adding them? If there is a way? Like the numerical values within the article. I can't think of another way to reorder besides changing numbers. --Pawsitivelypowerful (talk) 04:26, 19 June 2022 (UTC)

ignore this one also. I have figured it out. The only thing I haven't resolved by now is if I can use an article in another language on an English article? I can fluently understand the article in the language its written in (spanish) but do I need to cite it a specific way? Pawsitivelypowerful (talk) 04:52, 19 June 2022 (UTC)

Hi, Pawsitivelypowerful, glad to hear you're figuring things out! It looks like you added the Spanish source totally right. The problem you're facing now is that your draft is written like an advertisement. This is tricky to fix, but you can work on making sure the article is written neutrally, avoids peacock terms, and doesn't look like something you'd read on their website. (FYI, it will still have to be approved by a reviewer to be published, and I am not a reviewer.) Aerin17 (t • c) 17:54, 19 June 2022 (UTC)

I updated the page a bit and used stuff only in those articles or sources. Does that look better? I'm surprised if that was an issue at all how come it was never mentioned the first time it was rejected? None of the wording changed that time (only citations) so that was odd... Pawsitivelypowerful (talk) 18:47, 19 June 2022 (UTC)

Yes, it is better, but I'll be honest- the article still reads a little like advertising copy, and, more problematically, many of your sources don't back up the statements in the article. It might be better to start over entirely. See if you can find secondary sources that are truly independent, not just reprinting press releases (e.g. this one reads like an article, while this and this read like press releases, and this doesn't say enough to be useful at all), and then write an article based directly on what those sources actually say. It's much harder to approach an article the way you did, by starting with what you know and then trying to find sources. It's also possible that this topic simply isn't notable enough to be included on Wikipedia right now. (Side note, to answer your other question- the reason the advertising issue might not have been mentioned the first time is that reviewers tend to point out the most obvious and pressing reason for rejecting, even if there are multiple problems with the draft.) Aerin17 (t • c) 23:24, 19 June 2022 (UTC)

thank you for all the help!

Hello, I would like to list my business on Wikipedia --AdrianKenya (talk) 08:09, 24 August 2022 (UTC)

Hi AdrianKenya, please start by taking a look at Wikipedia's conflict of interest policy. In summary, it is highly discouraged to write about yourself or your business. If you still want to write about your business, you will need to follow the conflict of interest guidelines very carefully, and you will need to make sure that it qualifies as notable enough to be included on Wikipedia, or the article will be deleted. Aerin17 (t • c) 23:00, 24 August 2022 (UTC)

A discussion is taking place as to whether the article List of Encanto characters, to which you have significantly contributed, is suitable for inclusion in Wikipedia according to Wikipedia's policies and guidelines or if it should be deleted.

The discussion will take place at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of Encanto characters until a consensus is reached, and anyone, including you, is welcome to contribute to the discussion. Users may edit the article during the discussion, including to improve the article to address concerns raised in the discussion. However, do not remove the article-for-deletion notice from the top of the article.

Hi I wanna ask that can I make my own info page on Wikipedia or I just have to write a article on topics and events ? --Vansh19P (talk) 15:50, 26 October 2022 (UTC)

Hi Vansh19P, I'm not sure what you mean by "info page," but it likely falls under what Wikipedia is not. Also, there are many things you can do on Wikipedia besides writing articles, such as copyediting or improving existing articles, and in fact writing new articles is one of the hardest things to do. For more information, you could take a look at Help:Your first article. Does that answer your question? Aerin17 (t • c) 15:56, 26 October 2022 (UTC)

Hi Sarahadad20, and welcome to Wikipedia! The best answer I could give to your first question is than an article should be long enough to contain all the useful information without being excessively detailed, which I know is not particularly helpful, but there's no one-size-fits-all answer. You can read more at Wikipedia:Article size.

As for your second question, it's generally best to have a citation for any statement that is not totally obvious. If you have two sentences that are supported by the same source, it's fine to put a citation after both sentences rather than one after each, but there should still be a citation backing up the information. You can read more at Wikipedia:Citing sources.

Let me know if you have any further questions! Aerin17 (t • c) 17:52, 27 November 2022 (UTC)

Thanks for responding. It was very supportive and generous of you. I have one more question. How do we know which platforms are recognized credible and reliable under Wikipedia guidelines and which are recognized unreliable. I had been following the below link so far. Is it updated?

Wikipedia:Reliable sources/Perennial sources

Thanks. Sarahadad20 (talk) 18:58, 28 November 2022 (UTC)

@Sarahadad20, yes, that list is updated, and it's a fantastic reference for whether sources are considered reliable or not. I've used it a lot myself. It's important to note that the list doesn't include every possible source, so sometimes you do have to use your own judgement, but it's a great starting place.

And no worries at all! Feel free to ask as many questions as you have :) Aerin17 (t • c) 23:36, 28 November 2022 (UTC)

Guild of Copy Editors December 2022 Newsletter Hello and welcome to our latest newsletter, a quarterly digest of Guild activities since October. Don't forget you can unsubscribe at any time; see below. Blitz: Our October Copy Editing Blitz focused on July and August 2022 request months; and articles tagged for c/e in December 2021 and January 2022. Seventeen of those who signed up claimed at least one copy-edit, and between them copy-edited forty-six articles. Barnstars awarded are here. Drive: In the November Backlog Elimination Drive, thirty editors signed up, twenty-two of whom claimed at least one copy-edit. Both target months—December 2021 and January 2022—were cleared, and February was added to the target months. Sixteen requests were copy-edited and 239 articles were removed from the backlog. Barnstars awarded are here. Blitz: Our seven-day-long December 2022 Copy Editing Blitz begins on 17 December at 00:01 (UTC)*. It will focus on articles tagged for copy-edit in February 2022, and pending requests from September and October. Barnstars awarded will be available here. Progress report: As of 22:40, 8 December 2022, GOCE copyeditors have processed 357 requests since 1 January, there were seventy-four requests outstanding and the backlog stands at 1,791 articles. We always need skilled copy-editors; please help out if you can. Election news: Nomination of candidates for the GOCE's Election of Coordinators for the first half of 2023 is open and continues until 23:59 on 15 December. Voting begins at 00:01 on 16 December and closes at 23:59 on 31 December. All editors in good standing (not under ArbCom or community sanctions) are eligible and self-nominations are welcomed. Coordinators serve a six-month term that ends at 23:59 on June 30. If you've thought about helping out at the Guild, please nominate yourself or any editor you consider suitable—with their permission, of course!. It's your Guild and it doesn't coordinate itself. Thank you all again for your participation; we wouldn't be able to achieve what we have without you! Cheers and best seasonal wishes from your GOCE coordinators, Baffle gab1978, Dhtwiki, Miniapolis, Tenryuu, and Zippybonzo. *All times and dates on this newsletter are UTC.

The GOCE December 2022 newsletter, as sent on 9 December, contains an erroneous start date for our December Blitz. The Blitz will start on 11 December rather than on 17 December, as stated in the newsletter. I'm sorry for the mistake and for disrupting your talk page; thanks for your understanding.
