Welcome
[edit]Hello, Ap1405 and welcome to Wikipedia! It appears you are participating in a class project. If you haven't done so already, we encourage you to go through our training for students.
If you need help, check out Wikipedia:Questions, ask me on my talk page, or ask your question on this page and then place {{Help me}} before the question. Please also read this helpful advice for students.
Before you create an article, make sure you understand what kind of articles are accepted here. Remember: Wikipedia is an encyclopedia, and while many topics are encyclopedic, some things are not.
Your instructor or professor may wish to set up a course page, and if your class doesn't already have one please tell your instructor about that. It is highly recommended that you place this text: {{Educational assignment}} on the talk page of any articles you are working on as part of your Wikipedia-related course assignment. This will let other editors know this article is a subject of an educational assignment and aid your communication with them.
We hope you like it here and encourage you to stay even after your assignment is finished! Dr Aaij (talk) 04:08, 11 January 2017 (UTC)
- One way to get to our class page is to go here, Wikipedia:Wiki Ed/Auburn University at Montgomery/ENGL 1020C, CRN 2988 (Spring 2017), and then click on the blue "Dashboard" button. Dr Aaij (talk) 04:10, 11 January 2017 (UTC)
Welcome!

Copyedit assignment
[edit]Hi Ap1405, this is a start but it is very minor--if you want full credit you'll have to do a bit more than that. And note that dropping the word "the" altogether was a better option. Thanks, Dr Aaij (talk) 19:11, 26 January 2017 (UTC)
- Re: Anand, Gujarat: good. Make a few more of these--and that article needs a lot more work: cleanup, copyedits, the lede needs to be reorganized, references need to be added... Dr Aaij (talk) 03:22, 2 February 2017 (UTC)
Mr. Patel, if these four sentences are all you can pull out of those two sources (none of which are books or newspaper articles), it would be wise to choose a different topic. This does not look like the kind of topic that allows you to pass this writing class. Dr Aaij (talk) 03:35, 22 February 2017 (UTC)
- I see no edits there from you since 22 February, nor do I see anything you did in class on Monday. Dr Aaij (talk) 05:18, 1 March 2017 (UTC)
- Besides no more work on the article since last week, except for the minor ones we did in class, I also see no peer review of the articles by Aporter90, which is what you were assigned to do. Dr Aaij (talk) 17:43, 10 March 2017 (UTC)
- This is all you have done in the last 20 days. You may think that so far this class is pretty easy, not requiring a lot of work, but so far you're also not passing the class. Dr Aaij (talk) 02:23, 27 March 2017 (UTC)
- Ap1405--it's been 12 days since your last edit. Dr Aaij (talk) 15:24, 21 April 2017 (UTC)
- I've looked throughout your contributions to see if you responded to peer review anywhere, and I do not find evidence of it. In Charles Jinright, for instance, there's comments dated 7 and 10 March, but your last edit was 6 March. Same with User:Ap1405/Bhishma Ashtami, which received plenty of comments on the talk page--you haven't edited that in a week. So I do not see how I can give you credit for the "Respond to peer review" assignment. Nor, BTW, do I see where you proposed a Did You Know hook for any of the articles; that's another missed opportunity. Sorry. Dr Aaij (talk) 14:24, 1 May 2017 (UTC)
A page you started (Bhishma Ashtami) has been reviewed!
[edit]Thanks for creating Bhishma Ashtami, Ap1405!

Thanks for creating this. I'm not sure if hindu-blog.com is a WP:RELIABLESOURCE (we tend not to accept blogs) but this is is a good article. Thanks for contributing to Wikipedia, I hope you stick around.

Thanks for creating this. The references do need to be improved, especially as this is on a living person, and I hope you can help with that. Thanks again, I hope you choose to continue contributing to Wikipedia.

Ways to improve Philip G. Shadrach
[edit]Hi, I'm Babymissfortune. Ap1405, thanks for creating Philip G. Shadrach!
I've just tagged the page, using our page curation tools, as having some issues to fix. Please improve this article. Thanks.
The tags can be removed by you or another editor once the issues they mention are addressed. If you have questions, you can leave a comment on my talk page. Or, for more editing help, talk to the volunteers at the Teahouse.
Merry Christmas! Babymissfortune 03:44, 13 December 2017 (UTC)
The article Charles Jinright has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:
Fails WP:GNG/WP:NPOL. Subject was the mayor of a small city for one term and is an executive with a non-Wikipedia-notable regional insurance company; no secondary sources demonstrate that he has done anything "beyond the scope of what would be expected for [those] role[s]" (see WP:POLOUTCOMES).
While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.
You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.
Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.
