Hey all! This is my talk page. I'm very new to contributing to Wikipedia, although I've been a reader for years. I'm interested in learning pretty much anything new, and some of my favorite subjects are philosophy, poetry, literature, and new inventions.

Welcome Lizzythetech!

Now that you've joined Wikipedia, there are 39,929,315 registered editors!
Hello Lizzythetech. Welcome to Wikipedia and thank you for your contributions!

I'm Sm8900, one of the other editors here, and I hope you decide to stay and help contribute to this amazing repository of knowledge.

Some pages of helpful information to get you started:
  Introduction to Wikipedia
  The five pillars of Wikipedia
  Editing tutorial
  How to edit a page
  Simplified Manual of Style
  The basics of Wikicode
  How to develop an article
  How to create an article
  Help pages
  What Wikipedia is not
Some common sense Dos and Don'ts:
  Do be bold
  Do assume good faith
  Do be civil
  Do keep cool!
  Do maintain a neutral point of view
  Don't spam
  Don't infringe copyright
  Don't edit where you have a conflict of interest
  Don't commit vandalism
  Don't get blocked
If you need further help, you can:
  Ask a question
or you can:
  Get help at the Teahouse
or even:
  Ask an experienced editor to "adopt" you

Alternatively, leave me a message at my talk page or type {{helpme}} here on your talk page and someone will try to help.

There are many ways you can contribute to Wikipedia. Here are a few ideas:
  Fight vandalism
  Be a WikiFairy or a WikiGnome
  Help contribute to articles
  Perform maintenance tasks
           
  Become a member of a project that interests you
  Help design new templates
  Subscribe and contribute to The Signpost
  Translate articles from Wikipedias in other languages

To get some practice editing you can use a sandbox. You can create your own personal sandbox for use any time. It's perfect for working on bigger projects. Then for easy access in the future, you can put {{My sandbox}} on your user page. By the way, seeing as you haven't created a user page yet, simply click here to start it.

Please remember to:

  • Always sign your posts on talk pages. You can do this either by clicking on the button on the edit toolbar or by typing four tildes ~~~~ at the end of your post. This will automatically insert your signature, a link to your talk page, and a timestamp.
  • Leave descriptive edit summaries for your edits. Doing so helps other editors understand what changes you have made and why you made them.
The best way to learn about something is to experience it. Explore, learn, contribute, and don't forget to have some fun!

Hi Lizzythetech! The thread you created at the Wikipedia:Teahouse, Writing an article about Dax (self-driving robot), has been archived because there was no discussion for a few days (usually at least two days, and sometimes four or more). You can still find the archived discussion here. If you have any additional questions that weren't answered then, please feel free to create a new thread.


The archival was done by Lowercase sigmabot III, and this notification was delivered by Muninnbot, both automated accounts. You can opt out of future notifications by placing {{bots|deny=Muninnbot}} here on your user talk page. Muninnbot (talk) 19:02, 21 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

AfC notification: Draft:Daxbot (Robot) has a new comment

[edit]
I've left a comment on your Articles for Creation submission, which can be viewed at Draft:Daxbot (Robot). Thanks! Theroadislong (talk) 20:29, 21 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks! I'd really appreciate any further insight you could give me into fixing this article and what needs to be improved.

Your submission at Articles for creation: Daxbot (Robot) has been accepted

[edit]
Daxbot (Robot), which you submitted to Articles for creation, has been created.

Congratulations, and thank you for helping expand the scope of Wikipedia! We hope you will continue making quality contributions.

The article has been assessed as Start-Class, which is recorded on its talk page. Most new articles start out as Stub-Class or Start-Class and then attain higher grades as they develop over time. You may like to take a look at the grading scheme to see how you can improve the article.

Since you have made at least 10 edits over more than four days, you can now create articles yourself without posting a request. However, you may continue submitting work to Articles for creation if you prefer.

If you have any questions, you are welcome to ask at the help desk. Once you have made at least 10 edits and had an account for at least four days, you will have the option to create articles yourself without posting a request to Articles for creation.

If you would like to help us improve this process, please consider leaving us some feedback.

Thanks again, and happy editing!

Future of Daxbot (Robot) and other articles, if any

[edit]

Thanks for you significant improvements to Daxbot (Robot) in light of review suggestions. I wish more new editors responded as well.

If you have further changes to make to Daxbot (Robot), please do not make them directly. Instead place your suggested change on Talk:Daxbot (Robot) along with the {{Request edit}} template (follow the link for usage instructions). The exception is reverting obvious vandalism, you may do that directly. This is because of your status as a paid editor.

While you may now create articles directly without going through a draft, I advise you not to do so. I further strongly advise that in the case of any articles where you have a paid status, or a strong WP:COI, you use draft and AfC. This avoids problems and possible deletion. DES (talk)DESiegel Contribs 23:16, 21 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for letting me know! I would like to create other articles in the future (they probably wont be articles with a conflict of interest, though). I really appreciate the time that everyone has taken to show me the ropes. Lizzythetech (talk) 16:07, 22 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Nomination of Daxbot for deletion

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

[edit]

Warning icon Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to add promotional or advertising material to Wikipedia, as you did at Daxbot, you may be blocked from editing. You disclosed that you work for the company that makes this robot. You have done little else on Wikipedia but to promote it. If you continue doing so, you will likely be blocked from contributing further. Sandstein 14:14, 4 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I wrote one article that I was very transparent about, asked for help keeping within the guidelines. I didn't even end up publishing it because someone else published it for me. When someone voted to take it down I gave my reasons for disagreeing with them, and then stepped back and let the Wiki community decide, after which I did nothing to promote the article that had been deleted or refute the decision. I have acted reasonably and above board in every instance, and if you consider writing one article on something I know about undue promotion, I think your problem is with something else and not with me.
