Your submission at Articles for creation: Victoria sur le Parc (July 3)

[edit]
Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed! Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reason left by WikiAviator was:
This submission's references do not show that the subject qualifies for a Wikipedia article—that is, they do not show significant coverage (not just passing mentions) about the subject in published, reliable, secondary sources that are independent of the subject. Before any resubmission, additional references meeting these criteria should be added (see technical help and learn about mistakes to avoid when addressing this issue). If no additional references exist, the subject is not suitable for Wikipedia.
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.

Melotte 186 notability

[edit]

Hello, you recently created this article. Are you certain that it is generally notable, or notable under WP:NASTRO? Generally, we don't keep articles on all open clusters unless there is demonstrated notability. Are there scholarly sources out there that mention this cluster in depth? Sam-2727 (talk) 05:03, 16 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I expanded the Melotte 186 article further by translating the Italian version of the article into English. If it’s fine there I feel it should be fine here as well. The cluster is visible to the naked eye, remarkably big given it’s rough distance away from Earth, and catalogued in two separate astronomical catalogues dedicated to open clusters (Melotte and Collinder). I feel these facts satisfy the general notability requirement for an astronomical object getting its own article. I’m unaware of additional studies made on the cluster but I can look around if need be. Ponderosapine210 (talk) 06:14, 16 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Paraphrasing

[edit]

Hello Pondero, there were a handful of sentences in the article Pacific Coastal Mountain icefields and tundra that seemed to be directly from the WWF source or very close paraphrasings. It doesn't appear that the WWF's article is published under a free license, so I removed some sentences that would likely fall under their copyright. If I am mistaken and their article is free content, do let me know, we would just have to give them attribution at the bottom of the article. – Thjarkur (talk) 21:38, 23 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Hi there Thjarkur. I appreciate the help with the Pacific Coastal Mountain icefields and tundra. Perhaps I paraphrased the WWF's article a bit too closely. I'm not absolutely certain content published by the WWF is considered "free" so I worked to resolve paraphrasing issues you spotted by reworking paragraphs and bringing in other relevant sources.

Page moving

[edit]

Information icon Hi, and thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you tried to give Prince Rupert Port Authority a different title by copying its content and pasting either the same content, or an edited version of it, into Port of Prince Rupert. This is known as a "cut-and-paste move", and it is undesirable because it splits the page history, which is legally required for attribution. Instead, the software used by Wikipedia has a feature that allows pages to be moved to a new title together with their edit history.

In most cases, once your account is four days old and has ten edits, you should be able to move an article yourself using the "Move" tab at the top of the page (the tab may be hidden in a dropdown menu for you). This both preserves the page history intact and automatically creates a redirect from the old title to the new. If you cannot perform a particular page move yourself this way (e.g. because a page already exists at the target title), please follow the instructions at requested moves to have it moved by someone else. Also, if there are any other pages that you moved by copying and pasting, even if it was a long time ago, please list them at Wikipedia:Requests for history merge. Thank you.

[edit]

Hello Ponderosapine210,

I wanted to let you know that I just tagged Vancouver Island fixed link for deletion, because it seems to be copied from another source, probably infringing copyright.

If you feel that the article shouldn't be deleted and want more time to rewrite it in your own words, you can contest this deletion, but don't remove the speedy deletion tag from the top.

You can leave a note on my talk page if you have questions. Thanks!

Missing cites in San Juan Valley (Vancouver Island)

[edit]

The article cites "Groome et al. 2003" and "Brandon 1989c" but no such sources are listed in bibliography. Can you please add? Also, suggest installing a script (explained at Category:Harv and Sfn no-target errors) to highlight such errors in the future. Thanks, Renata (talk) 02:11, 24 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the notice and the script. The citations were originally from another Wikipedia article but apparently I overlooked that the citations were just redirects to the bib of that article. I've since fixed the citation errors.@Renata3: Ponderosapine210 (talk) 03:38, 24 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Short description

[edit]

Hi. I’m not sure I agree with this edit in the round. The article for port indicates its primacy over the wording seaport. But the geographical portion of the description probably does need an update. But I’d have thought that ‘Vancouver’ is too specific for a description. Surely it should be more like ‘ port in British Columbia, Canada’. What do you think? Fob.schools (talk) 15:01, 27 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

That's fine. I was just going off of the precedent set by the "Port of Oakland" article. It's probably a more accurate description as well given the existence of PoV facilities along the Fraser River, which isn't technically the sea. Ponderosapine210 (talk) 18:13, 27 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy deletion nomination of Victoria sur le Parc

[edit]

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.

You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on Victoria sur le Parc requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G4 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page appears to be a repost of material that was previously deleted following a deletion discussion, at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Victoria sur le Parc. When a page has substantially identical content to that of a page deleted after a discussion, and any changes in the content do not address the reasons for which the material was previously deleted, it may be deleted at any time.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator, or if you have already done so, you can place a request here.

Midnight Sun Mosque

[edit]

Delighted and surprised to see that you created the article ... ever since I took the picture, it has been on my list of articles to create and I was planning to do so soon.

So, I would like to know, would you be OK with it being nominated for DYK? I had also looked at some sources and may have found some facts that would make a good hook (Plus, if I did, and it got used, it would be my 700th DYK and so it would be special like I wanted it to be). Daniel Case (talk) 06:33, 17 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Hi there Daniel, I had no idea! I was inspired to make it after I read a bit on the Islam in the Arctic wiki article. By all means nominate it for DYK. I think it’s deserving of that. Also you did a great job with the picture. Ponderosapine210 (talk) 06:46, 17 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

DYK for Midnight Sun Mosque

[edit]

On 6 February 2022, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Midnight Sun Mosque, which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that the northernmost mosque in the Western Hemisphere (pictured) was built in Winnipeg and shipped to Inuvik by barge and truck? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Midnight Sun Mosque (2nd nomination). You are welcome to check how many pageviews the nominated article or articles got while on the front page (here's how, Midnight Sun Mosque), and if they received a combined total of at least 416.7 views per hour (i.e., 5,000 views in 12 hours or 10,000 in 24), the hook may be added to the statistics page. Finally, if you know of an interesting fact from another recently created article, then please feel free to suggest it on the Did you know talk page.

Copying within Wikipedia requires attribution (2nd request)

[edit]

Information icon It appears that you copied or moved text from Oraibi, Arizona to Spanish missions in Arizona. While you are welcome to re-use Wikipedia's content, here or elsewhere, Wikipedia's licensing does require that you provide attribution to the original contributor(s). When copying within Wikipedia, this is supplied at minimum in an edit summary at the page into which you've copied content, disclosing the copying and linking to the copied page, e.g., copied content from [[page name]]; see that page's history for attribution. It is good practice, especially if copying is extensive, to also place a properly formatted {{copied}} template on the talk pages of the source and destination. Please provide attribution for this duplication if it has not already been supplied by another editor, and if you have copied material between pages before, even if it was a long time ago, you should provide attribution for that also. You can read more about the procedure and the reasons at Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia. DanCherek (talk) 15:06, 18 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Nonhuman Unity Flag

[edit]

Information icon Welcome to Wikipedia! Although everyone is welcome to make constructive contributions to Wikipedia, at least one of your recent uploads, such as the file you uploaded at Otherkin, did not appear to be constructive and has been or soon will be deleted. Please read the welcome page to learn more about contributing constructively to this encyclopedia. While this flag was released to the public domain, there are no references (just a tweet) for it that meet Wikipedia's guidelines for inclusion that I've been able to find, which can be considered image evandalism (though I admit I believe you were acting in good faith here. You've also been asked not to add flags to infoboxes before, which you did again on the Otherkin article. Warrenmck (talk) 18:12, 14 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

The flag included in the identity infobox was uploaded in the context of the established practice of including flags relating to personal identity in infoboxes. See the infoboxes of the following articles: Asexuality, Intersex, non-binary gender (a photograph of a flag), transhumanism (a community symbol as opposed to a flag).
All previous instances of flags being included in infoboxes were relevant to those of inline flags of national and sub-national administrative entities. For example, I used the Wikilink with an attached Unicode flag for the territorial entity when standard practice for infoboxes of territorial entities should be a standard Wikilink text (i.e.  United Kingdom instead of United Kingdom). This differs from other infobox standards such as those relating to armed conflicts (i.e. Anglo-French blockade of the Río de la Plata), hence my initial confusion. I haven't engaged in this practice since October 2020, almost three years ago.
My addition of the flag to the infobox was in good faith. I believe the inclusion of the Non-human Identity Flag is relevant to the content of the article more broadly. However, the inclusion of the flag is not necessary if it comes across as evandalism to the average reader, which was not my intention. Ponderosapine210 (talk) 18:54, 15 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Fair, and sorry for misunderstanding the issue in the past with the flags. The nonhuman unity flag appears to be exclusively in the domain of self-published fandom material right now, though, so it doesn't really have a place on Wikipedia. That obviously could change in the future, obviously, but for now it's basically someone's twitter art project as far as I can tell. Warrenmck (talk) 21:56, 16 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
