Edit Help

[edit]

I need some help with this article I'm trying to write in my sandbox. it would be appreciated if someone help write it.

That would still need to focus with the best news and reviews available, and not simply interviews and simple mentions. SwisterTwister talk 22:06, 19 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Wikipedia content should be a summary of what reliable third-party sources have reported about the subject. Your current sources are the band's own website and an interview, with the band speaking about itself, not independent coverage of the band. Google News results were rather scarce, but some of the Sveriges Radio pieces may help. Since I don't speak Swedish I haven't looked at those sources in detail, but since the total number of sources seems low, my advice would be to take a look at the notability guideline for bands, WP:MUSIC, and to check whether Dunderpatrullen meets those criteria at all. Huon (talk) 23:05, 19 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Well, I know I have insufficient sources, Most of the sources from the original article are in Swedish, and I'm debating whether they would be fit. After your post, I'm also debating if they would fit on the English Wikipedia. AtlasDuane (talk) 18:24, 20 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Re: SOCKS edit

[edit]

Hi! I saw that you added a citation needed note on the SOCKS proxy page. I wanted to add one, but I noticed that this is essentially described on the Tor page linked just before. Is that enough, or should I find a link to the Tor documentation describing this feature? If it's enough, do you know how I can properly add a reference (is that even desirable?) Namnatulco (talk) 08:20, 27 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

I'd say add a citation, personally, just to avoid someone deleting the points later along down the line, or to prevent a potential case of Citogenesis. I'd personally use {{cite-web}} to do it.AtlasDuane (talk) 19:42, 27 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Do Animals Have Rights?

[edit]

Do you want to have a short discussion first over it? I removed the template for now but will not contest deletion if there is additional support or discussion to delete.--NadirAli نادر علی (talk) 21:57, 25 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Shall I put something up at WP:AFD? I feel like that's a good place to find consensus. AtlasDuane (talk) 09:57, 26 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Your wish. An AFD should determine it. But if you do, don't forget to notify me. I will present an argument or so on the discussion page. Regards.--NadirAli نادر علی (talk) 17:39, 26 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]
On second thoughts, I'll put a {{notability}} tag at the top of the page for a week, then I'll go to WP:AFD, if you don't mind. AtlasDuane (talk) 08:22, 27 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Alright--NadirAli نادر علی (talk) 21:53, 27 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Alt-right tags - please raise specifics on the talk page

[edit]

I've removed them because you haven't then gone to the talk page with specifics. You only have 654 edits, how are you judging that this specific article is too long? What specific words are you calling weasel words? It certainly is not written like a personal essay - it's had 571 editors. I'd really like to know what makes you think it reads like a "personal reflection or opinion essay that states a Wikipedia editor's personal feelings about a topic" - can you explain that? I've seen a lot of articles that qualify, but definitely not this one. Over-quotation is something that definitely would have to be discussed on the talk page, some articles really need quotations.

As it stood, these were "badges of shame" but with no specifics that anyone could discuss and nothing to try to build a consensus around. See Wikipedia:Tag bombing and the linked articles for advice on tagging. Doug Weller talk 16:23, 11 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

List of Supported Printers

[edit]

Greetings fellow Wikipedian! I noticed that you removed the list of printers supported by Cura software. Since this is an opensource software, don't you think it's important to note the printers that are supported? I am not one to engage in edit wars, so instead of reverting, I thought I would reach out to you directly to inquire as to your thought process behind the edit. Not Wilkins (talk) 15:34, 9 April 2019 (UTC)Not Wilkins[reply]

@Not Wilkins: I'm just trying to follow WP:LISTPURP & MOS:LISTFORMAT, a incredibly long list of supported 3D printers for a particular software, regardless of wherever it's FOSS or not, isn't really something people go to Wikipedia to find. One could simply find the relevant information with a simple internet search.

AfD for MooTools

[edit]

I'm writing to you because you created Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/MooTools a while ago, which closed with "no consensus". I have just created Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/MooTools (2nd nomination), so if you are interested pelase feel free to comment there. Anton.bersh (talk) 21:17, 26 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
