Headings

Hello, MinTrouble. In a recent edit to Linguistic insecurity you added a MOS:PSEUDOHEAD. That is, you used boldface markup to give the appearance of a heading, rather than equals signs (==Like this==) to create actual headings. This can cause problems for screen readers, and is discouraged by the Manual of Style.

I removed the pseudohead and made some other changes to your text. You may want to look at it to make sure I didn't misunderstand what you wrote. Happy editing, Cnilep (talk) 03:29, 18 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you, Cnilep. I appreciate your help. Peace. MinTrouble (talk) 17:33, 18 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hi MinTrouble! I noticed that you recently marked an edit as minor at Josef Matthias Hauer that may not have been. "Minor edit" has a specific definition on Wikipedia—it refers only to superficial edits that could never be the subject of a dispute, such as typo corrections or reverting obvious vandalism. Any edit that changes the meaning of an article is not a minor edit, even if it only concerns a single word. Thank you. CurryTime7-24 (talk) 06:39, 31 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Disambiguation link notification for September 3

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Manfred Bierwisch, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Berlin Academy of Sciences. Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)

It's OK to remove this message. Also, to stop receiving these messages, follow these opt-out instructions. Thanks, --DPL bot (talk) 07:53, 3 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

September 2024

Hello, I'm Doniago. I noticed that you added or changed content in an article, Stephen Fry, but you didn't provide a reliable source. It's been removed and archived in the page history for now, but if you'd like to include a citation and re-add it, please do so. You can have a look at referencing for beginners. If you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. DonIago (talk) 20:52, 10 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Pedagogical Academy of Vienna moved to draftspace

An article you recently created, Pedagogical Academy of Vienna, is not suitable as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. (?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of "Draft:" before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page.

Biographies of women

Hi there, MinTrouble, and thank you for creating a detailed biography of Sneja Gunew. If you intend to continue along these lines, you might like to join WikiProject Women in Red where we are trying to improve the coverage of women on Wikipedia. You can sign up under "New registrations" on Wikipedia:WikiProject Women in Red/New members. Please let me know if you run into any difficulties. Happy editing!--Ipigott (talk) 12:45, 22 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for following up on this and welcome to Women in Red. In connection with further work on biographies, you might find it useful to look through the guidance on our Wikipedia:WikiProject Women in Red/Essays/Primer for creating women's biographies. I have taken the liberty of adding the WiR template to your user page where others will be able to see your interest in the project. Please let me know if ever you think I can be of assistance. Happy editing!--Ipigott (talk) 07:09, 24 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy deletion nomination of Faith Avis

A tag has been placed on Faith Avis requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done for the following reason:

R2, see page history at User:MinTrouble/Faith Avis. It appears that the author wants to incubate in userspace

Under the criteria for speedy deletion, pages that meet certain criteria may be deleted at any time.

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. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator, or if you have already done so, you can place a request here.

Nomination of Kyra Belan for deletion

A discussion is taking place as to whether the article Kyra Belan is suitable for inclusion in Wikipedia according to Wikipedia's policies and guidelines or whether it should be deleted.

The article will be discussed at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Kyra Belan until a consensus is reached, and anyone, including you, is welcome to contribute to the discussion. The nomination will explain the policies and guidelines which are of concern. The discussion focuses on high-quality evidence and our policies and guidelines.

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 until the discussion has finished.

Bearcat (talk) 17:33, 12 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, I honestly thought I was doing the project of Women in Red a service. Kyra Berman was one of the red listed names.

The express deletion of Faith Avis (above) I saw only after the fact. There the idea was to highlight the women who enabled their husbands to become famous. Faith Avis was a newly documented case, one of the early Canadian women with a B.A. I was surprised to read that this would trigger a self-spawning suspicion and express deletion.

I defer in both of these cases to the judgement of others. MinTrouble (talk) 19:14, 12 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Please don't be discouraged by this. Many have made the exact same assumption when beginning their editing career, that if a person is on a redlist they are inherently notable. It is absolutely an honest mistake, but please note that each relist states "This list of red links is intended to serve as a basis for creating new articles on the English Wikipedia. Please note however that the red links on this list may well not be suitable as the basis for an article. All new articles must satisfy Wikipedia's notability criteria with reliable independent sources." Best, --WomenArtistUpdates (talk) 18:43, 14 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Links to draft articles

Please do not introduce links in actual articles to draft articles, as you did to ORF (broadcaster) and Am Dam Des. Since a draft is not yet ready for the main article space, it is not in shape for ordinary readers, and links from articles should not go to a draft. Such links are contrary to the Manual of Style. These links have been removed. Thank you. - Arjayay (talk) 21:24, 15 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Edits on Andreas Heusler

Hi there! I see you've made a few edits to Andreas Heusler but that you seem to be citing sources that mention Otto Höfler rather than Heusler.

Your submission at Articles for creation: Eberhard Kranzmayer (November 21)

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed. Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reasons left by Timtrent were:

This submission's references do not show that the subject qualifies for a Wikipedia article—that is, they do not show significant coverage (not just passing mentions) about the subject in published, reliable, secondary sources that are independent of the subject (see the guidelines on the notability of people). Before any resubmission, additional references meeting these criteria should be added (see technical help and learn about mistakes to avoid when addressing this issue). If no additional references exist, the subject is not suitable for Wikipedia.

This submission does not appear to be written in the formal tone expected of an encyclopedia article. Entries should be written from a neutral point of view, and should refer to a range of independent, reliable, published sources. Please rewrite your submission in a more encyclopedic format. Please make sure to avoid peacock terms that promote the subject.

The comment the reviewer left was:

Apart from sections without references I have other issues. You move into the present tense, and you appear to draw conclusions, this is terms WP:OR and/or WP:SYNTH

Please check the submission for any additional comments left by the reviewer. You are encouraged to edit the submission to address the issues raised and resubmit after they have been resolved.

If you would like to continue working on the submission, go to Draft:Eberhard Kranzmayer and click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window.

(To request such a release, see Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission.) While we appreciate your contributions to Wikipedia, it's important to understand and adhere to guidelines about using information from sources to prevent copyright and plagiarism issues. Here are the key points:

Limited quotation: You may only copy or translate a small portion of a source. Any direct quotations must be enclosed in double quotation marks (") and properly cited using an inline citation. More information is available on the non-free content page. To learn how to cite a source, see Help:Referencing for beginners.
Paraphrasing: Beyond limited quotations, you are required to put all information in your own words. Following the source's wording too closely can lead to copyright issues and is not permitted; see Wikipedia:Close paraphrasing. Even when paraphrasing, you must still cite your sources as appropriate.
Image use guidelines: In most scenarios, only freely licensed or public domain images may be used and these should be uploaded to our sister project, Wikimedia Commons. In some scenarios, non-freely copyrighted content can be used if they meet all ten of our non-free content criteria; Wikipedia:Plain and simple non-free content guide may help with determining a file's eligibility.
Copyrighted material donation: If you hold the copyright to the content you want to copy, or are a legally designated agent, you may be able to license the text for publication here. Please see Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials.

Thank you. I am aware of copyright rules, though I may have underestimated the "completely from scratch" principle. I went back to double check on what is at Melania Fogelbaum now and made changes to be on the safe side. Can you tell me which part was flagged and was removed as showing similar wording to another source? I thought I took safeguards not to take over more than generic phrases... MinTrouble (talk) 05:50, 23 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I have temporarily undone the revision deletion so you can have a look. here. Diannaa (talk) 12:44, 23 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
