Question from Digital.Writers (14:21, 26 July 2024)

[edit]

Where I should put link in the edit article or post ? --Digital.Writers (talk) 14:21, 26 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Digital.Writers I'm not sure I understand your question, but do not add unrelated external links to articles, like you did here. Doing so may be considered promotion and is prohibited. '''[[User:CanonNi]]''' (talkcontribs) 14:23, 26 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
ok I'll remember it for next time Digital.Writers (talk) 14:30, 26 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@ASTIN VICTOR, I'm not sure I understand your question. Could you rephrase it? '''[[User:CanonNi]]''' (talkcontribs) 01:41, 28 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Page mover granted

[edit]

Hello, CanonNi. Your account has been granted the "extendedmover" user right, either following a request for it or demonstrating familiarity with working with article names and moving pages. You are now able to rename pages without leaving behind a redirect, move subpages when moving the parent page(s), and move category pages.

Please take a moment to review Wikipedia:Page mover for more information on this user right, especially the criteria for moving pages without leaving a redirect. Please remember to follow post-move cleanup procedures and make link corrections where necessary, including broken double-redirects when suppressredirect is used. This can be done using Special:WhatLinksHere. It is also very important that no one else be allowed to access your account, so you should consider taking a few moments to secure your password. As with all user rights, be aware that if abused, or used in controversial ways without consensus, your page mover status can be revoked.

If you do not want the page mover right anymore, just let me know, and I'll remove it. Thank you, and happy editing! Elli (talk | contribs) 21:12, 27 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Elli thank you! '''[[User:CanonNi]]''' (talkcontribs) 01:43, 28 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
You're very welcome :) Do let me know if you have any questions about the permission, though I think things should be pretty straightforward. Elli (talk | contribs) 02:12, 28 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Question from AlphaSigmas (04:45, 28 July 2024)

[edit]

How do you edit properly? --AlphaSigmas (talk) 04:45, 28 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@AlphaSigmas that's a broad question, kinda like "How do you build a house"? There are many parts to editing properly, but in general, you should follow relevant policies and guidelines, as well as the Manual of Style, where applicable. Do you have a specific page you need help with? '''[[User:CanonNi]]''' (talkcontribs) 07:58, 28 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Question about tags and draftspace

[edit]

Hello @CanonNi!

I see that you removed stub and BLP tags from my draft article. Is there a reference for how these tags should only be used in mainspace and not in draftspace? I have checked the page on drafts and on tagging and I don't see it specified there.

Since Wikipedia search doesn't return draftspace articles by default, I don't see the harm in including those tags in the draft article. Having a ready-to-publish version of the article in draftspace, with all necessary tags, makes more sense in my opinion.

Happy to learn more.

Regards,
CoolAndUniqueUsername (talk) 15:36, 28 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I asked this question at the Teahouse and have a better understanding! Thank you! CoolAndUniqueUsername (talk) 17:00, 28 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@CoolAndUniqueUsername no problem. Happy editing! '''[[User:CanonNi]]''' (talkcontribs) 23:09, 30 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Responding at WP:EFFP

[edit]

Before adding a comment of {{EFFP|r}}, please actually make sure the added individual doesn't already have an article. In the request you answered about Mt. Whitney High School, the individual in question is Ken Khachigian, who does have one. Animal lover |666| 19:02, 28 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Animal lover 666 thanks for the reminder. I was wondering, since I saw a lot of these false positives recently, is there a way to 'update' the article so that it doesn't trigger the filter? Thanks. '''[[User:CanonNi]]''' (talkcontribs) 23:09, 30 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Unfortunately, the filters probably don't, and never will, have the ability to check for the existence of other articles. (They can parse the HTML of the page, both the old version and the new, to detect red links.) Animal lover |666| 06:25, 31 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Question about article decline

[edit]

Hi!

You recently declined my submission titled Draft:James Miller (professor), however, I find your response a little confusing. From what I gather, you declined my submission on account of subject Notability. After reviewing the relevant pages, I would like to offer a response. I believe that the subject in question here, can be easily connected to points 3, 5, and 8. Allow me to elaborate.

Point 3: The person has been an elected member of a highly selective and prestigious scholarly society or association or a fellow of a major scholarly society which reserves fellow status as a highly selective honor. The subject in question has been selected as a fellow of the United States Library of the Congress, which only selects a limited number of academics globally annually. This has been referenced by the Library's own website.

Point 5: The person has held a distinguished professor appointment at a major institution of higher education and research, a named chair appointment that indicates a comparable level of achievement, or an equivalent position in countries where named chairs are uncommon. The subject had been appointed Chair of the Faculty Assembly of the University, selection amounting to leading the whole faculty of a major academic institution, as credited by the Duke University website.

Point 8: The person has been head or chief editor of a major well-established academic journal in their subject area. The subject in question is editor-in-chief of a Brill journal titled Worldviews: Global Religions, Cultures, and Ecology, the first journal to focus on the relationships between religion, culture, and ecology worldwide, established in 1997. This has been sourced by the journal's page on Brill.


Because of all the reasons above, I believe that the subject in question for this article qualifies easily on the Notability criterion, as well as using proper sources. Thus, I would like to hear your thoughts on this, and advice on how to improve the article, in order to better satisfy Wikipedia's needs in demonstrating these points even more clearly.


Take care,

Mateja Bokan MatejaWateja (talk) 06:04, 29 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@MatejaWateja regarding the points you made above:
  1. Yes, that may potentially make him notable, but that information is not included anywhere in the draft.
  2. Again, yes, that may make him notable, but that information isn't in the article either
  3. A rule of thumb is that if the journal doesn't have an article, it's not well-established.
So, Miller potentially meets 2 of the 8 criteria for academics, but the information needs to be included in the article. HTH, '''[[User:CanonNi]]''' (talkcontribs) 23:14, 30 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I want to write an article about a Bangladeshi artist --XhackerBD (talk) 18:18, 29 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Question from Pmishra3 (13:48, 30 July 2024)

[edit]

Hi Canoni,

I have made a wiki page in sandbox and publish it. How do i make sure its approved or not? Thanks ' --Pmishra3 (talk) 13:48, 30 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Pmishra3 I'm assuming you're referring to Draft:Pranysqa Mishra? No, it has not been accepted. If it has, you'd see a green box on the bottom of your talk page. If you're notable, someone else will write one for you, so my advice is to stop writing about yourself. '''[[User:CanonNi]]''' (talkcontribs) 23:17, 30 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

DYK for Inauguration of Lai Ching-te

[edit]

On 31 July 2024, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Inauguration of Lai Ching-te, which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that China launched a military exercise in response to the inauguration of Lai Ching-te as president of Taiwan (pictured)? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Inauguration of Lai Ching-te. You are welcome to check how many pageviews the nominated article or articles got while on the front page (here's how, Inauguration of Lai Ching-te), and the hook may be added to the statistics page after its run on the Main Page has completed. Finally, if you know of an interesting fact from another recently created article, then please feel free to suggest it on the Did you know talk page.

@Cwmhiraeth yes! My first DYK! Thanks. '''[[User:CanonNi]]''' (talkcontribs) 00:03, 31 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for your work on this topic and congratulations on the DYK. —  AjaxSmack  01:29, 31 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
