Welcome!

Hello, Ctmuva2000, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Unfortunately, one or more of your recent edits to the page Catherine the Great have not conformed to Wikipedia's verifiability policy, and has been or will be removed. Wikipedia articles should refer only to facts and interpretations that have been stated in print or on reputable websites or in other media. Always remember to provide a reliable source for quotations and for any material that is likely to be challenged, or it may be removed. Wikipedia also has a related policy against including original research in articles. Additionally, all new biographies of living people must contain at least one reliable source.

If you are stuck and looking for help, please see the guide for citing sources or come to the new contributors' help page, where experienced Wikipedians can answer any queries you have! Here are a few other good links for newcomers:

Hello! Sorry to revert your addition. Though it seemed reasonable enough to me, such a claim requires the support of a reliable scholarly source. If the claim is only supported by a very small or fringe minority, it probably shouldn't be included. You're very welcome to bring the matter up on the article talk-page, but again, be prepared to cite reliable sources in support of your argument. Best wishes, Haploidavey (talk) 22:55, 11 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Citing sources

Hi again, and thanks for the note. Please use a standard Wikipedia format for your citations. As well as author and title, you must include the publisher, year of publication and the page number - that's crucial: I'll give an example below- if you open the page for editing, you'll see the wiki-markup required for italics etc.

We don't usually give authors and publications within text: we place them within reftags, thus ^[1] You don't need to add reflist markup to the article itself, of course.

Please note that according to the article text, most sources doubt Catherine's involvement in the assassination, not her involvement in the coup; your disagreement seems based on the assumption that the assassination was integral to the coup, and that Catherine was party to both. Unless your source states explicitly that Catherine managed the assassination, the argument's non-existent, and there's no point using the source.

Catherine again

Hiya... why not post your source and its claim at the article talk-page? Others will see it, and (I hope) respond. Even if you don't find agreement, a broader discussion can do no harm. Haploidavey (talk) 20:44, 13 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Hello again! I posted a comment on the talk page of Catherine the Great. I included the author, book title, page number, publisher, and date of publication, as you instructed. Thank you again for inviting me to contribute! Ctmuva2000 (talk) 01:11, 17 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Excellent. You're an asset! And it's nice to meet you (per your user-page). Haploidavey (talk) 10:25, 17 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Please continue...

Thanks so much for the very kind note. You're evidently well-motivated, willing to do the research, and - just as importantly - willing to step back even when you've a strong personal opinion on the subject. Wikipedia needs editors like you... (while I'm here, I have to say I agree with you - her involvement seems rather likely - but that's neither here nor there, as far as Wikipedia's concerned). Keep editing, and enjoy. And get in touch as and when you need. By the way, I've particular interests but not what I'd describe as expertise; I've just been editing here for some years, and have picked things up along the way. Just like you. It's not much more than process, patience and care. Haploidavey (talk) 00:34, 12 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Your submission at Articles for creation: Kristina Pimenova (April 3)

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed! Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reason left by SwisterTwister was:

This submission's references do not adequately show the subject's notability. Wikipedia requires significant coverage about the subject in reliable sources that are independent of the subject—see the guidelines on the notability of people and the golden rule. Please improve the submission's referencing (see Wikipedia:Referencing for beginners), so that the information is verifiable, and there is clear evidence of why the subject is notable and worthy of inclusion in an encyclopedia. If additional reliable sources cannot be found for the subject, then it may not be suitable for Wikipedia at this time.

The comment the reviewer left was:

Not satisfying our simplest standards, sources are only announcements or notices and notability cannot be inherited from others.

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 when they have been resolved.

If you would like to continue working on the submission, go to User:Ctmuva2000/Kristina Pimenova and click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window.
If you need any assistance, you can ask for help at the Articles for creation help desk or on the reviewer's talk page.

Forming links

Hello Ctmuva2000, I slightly modified your post on Talk:Kristina Pimenova by changing your bare url links into a format that looks cleaner and follows the conventions as explained in this section of our Manual of Style. That page also shows how to make links that are internal to Wikipedia as well. If you don't like my changes, you are free to revert them or modify if you want to change the "link" word, etc. Normally, we do not refactor talk page comments but I did here as an example to show you how links are properly formed.
