Your questions about process at Wikipedia_talk:Noticeboard_for_India-related_topics#Opinion_on_Tribal_casteism_and_Tribal_multiculturalism?

Hello again and welcome to Wikipedia.

First, you will see the word "editor" thrown around, but it really means "someone who makes edits to Wikipedia". It does not have the journal meaning of choosing what gets published / selecting reviewers / etc. You are a Wikipedia editor at the same level as I am, and at the same level of someone who spent eight hours on Wikipedia for the last ten years.

Wikipedia can be a bit overwhelming at first - other editors will probably toss around lots of jargon, sometimes linked to a webpage with 1000+ words, sometimes not linked because "everyone knows" what it means. If you get lost, I encourage you to ask at the Wikipedia:Teahouse, a place designed to be a question-and-answer forums for new editors.

That being said, if you must read only one of the links I give you, it should probably be Wikipedia:Expert_editors#Advice_for_expert_editors. In particular, I have no reason to believe you lied about who you are, but we are not going to verify your credentials and therefore do not care much about them. If you want your name to be removed from the page, you can contact oversight (or tell me and I will do it for you).

What you wrote is sourced, I have no issue with that. "OR-ish", linked to WP:OR, is Wikipedia jargon for "original research". One sort of original research is unsourced assertions (that are, in fact, sourced to the author’s own field work / experiments / feelings / intuition, and therefore of unknown quality), but that is not the only sort. "SYNTH", linked to WP:SYNTH, means "synthesis" - a subset of original research, where one groups multiple sources to reach a conclusion that none of the sources makes themselves. We do not allow original research on Wikipedia, but determining whether the line of SYNTH is crossed or not can be challenging.

Finally, your two articles are currently published and "live". There are some pre-publication checks, but nothing that amounts to real quality control (depending on who you ask, it’s either a bare minimum to protect against a deluge of promotional articles, or an unacceptable restriction of the principle of "Wikipedia, the encyclopedia anyone can edit"). However, articles can be edited, moved, deleted etc. It would be nice to kick these entries to a South Asian anthropologist editor to check, which is why I asked at a place I could hope for such a person to come up. But here’s the thing: there is a nonzero chance that you are the only SA anthropologist currently active on Wikipedia. A surprisingly large chunk of articles on Wikipedia is written by people with no credentials whatsoever about the topic (but who are well-trained in looking up sources and writing an article).

Tips

Don't be afraid to edit! Just find something that can be improved and make it better. Other editors will help fix any mistakes you make.
It's normal to feel a little overwhelmed, but don't worry if you don't understand everything at first—it's fine to edit using common sense.
If an edit you make is reverted, you can discuss the issue at the article's talk page. Be civil, and don't restore the edit unless there is consensus.
When adding new content to an article, always include a citation to a reliable source.
If you wish to edit about a subject with which you are affiliated, read our conflict of interest guide and disclose your connection.
Have fun! Your presence in the Wikipedia community is welcome.

Happy editing! Cheers, Pharaoh of the Wizards (talk) 02:31, 2 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Your draft article, Draft:Gaddi

Hello, Interstice101. It has been over six months since you last edited the Articles for Creation submission or Draft page you started, "Gaddi".

In accordance with our policy that Wikipedia is not for the indefinite hosting of material deemed unsuitable for the encyclopedia mainspace, the draft has been deleted. If you plan on working on it further and you wish to retrieve it, you can request its undeletion. An administrator will, in most cases, restore the submission so you can continue to work on it.

Thanks for your submission to Wikipedia, and happy editing. Liz ^{Read! Talk!} 17:21, 28 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]
