User talk:Qumarchi

Welcome!

Hello, Qumarchi, and welcome to Wikipedia! I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Unfortunately, one or more of the pages you created, such as Amina Khalil, may not conform to some of Wikipedia's content policies and may not be retained. In short, the topic of an article must be notable and have already been the subject of publication by reliable and independent sources.

Please review Your first article for an overview of the article creation process. The Article Wizard is available to help you create an article, where it will be reviewed and considered for publication. For information on how to request a new article that can be created by someone else, see Requested articles. If you are stuck, come to the Teahouse, where experienced Wikipedians can help you through the processes.

New to Wikipedia? Please consider taking a look at the our introductory tutorial or reviewing the contributing to Wikipedia page to learn the basics about editing. Below are a few other good pages about article creation.

If you have any questions ask me on my talk page or you can just type {{help me}} on this page, followed by your question, and someone will show up shortly to answer your questions. Again, welcome!

Speedy deletion nomination of Amina Khalil

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 Amina Khalil, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page seems to be unambiguous advertising which only promotes a company, group, product, service, person, or point of view and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become encyclopedic. Please read the guidelines on spam and Wikipedia:FAQ/Organizations for more information.

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.

Hello, Qumarchi. Escaped plant, an article you either created or to which you significantly contributed, has been nominated to appear on Wikipedia's Main Page as part of Did you know. You can see the hook and the discussion here. You are welcome to participate! Thank you. EnterpriseyBot (talk!) 12:01, 26 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

DYK for Escaped plant

On 10 September 2021, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Escaped plant, which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status.

This is awesome. Thanks! Qumarchi (talk) 09:16, 2 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Tafelmusik

Thank you that one! - I reverted your move of Tafelmusik, because that article is only about Tafelmusik. You can write on Table music. We don't translate these terms, compare Divertimento and Requiem (music), - they became part of English. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 07:21, 19 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Noted. I shall expand the tafelmusik article by grabbing some texts from the other European language articles. --Qumarchi 07:26, 19 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Ways to improve Prospect dolerite intrusion

Hello, Qumarchi,

Thank you for creating Prospect dolerite intrusion.

I have tagged the page as having some issues to fix, as a part of our page curation process and note that:

Hello, Checking the text of this article it appears that some of it has been copied from other websites. It is important that you compose it using your own words, otherwise the article may be deleted. Regards

The tags can be removed by you or another editor once the issues they mention are addressed. If you have questions, leave a comment here and begin it with {{Re|Hughesdarren}}. Remember to sign your reply with ~~~~. For broader editing help, please visit the Teahouse.

Hughesdarren (talk) 09:18, 1 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

{{Re|Hughesdarren}}Hi. I've only copied the quotes. All other sentences and descriptions were written using my own words. But I will try reworking on the article to make it more in line with my wording, especially the quotes. Furthermore, I have moved (or copied) content from the Prospect Hill article into here. I will have to delete those in that article, as they're more relevant here than on that article. Thanks. ~ Qumarchi 09:24, 1 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

{{Re|Hughesdarren}} I believe there is a huge mistake. I copied/moved the contents from the geology section og Prospect Hill article (which I later removed from that article and moved to this article, because they are more relevant here), as stated. The website roscimetosne.tk, in actuality, has copied all content from that Wikipedia article much later. In other words, the Wikipedia entry is the ORIGINAL writing -- Please check the history of Prospect Hill article. You'll see that the geology content has been there for some time. Further, roscimetosne.tk does NOT seem like a legit website. Seems like a Wikipedia copycat or bot site. Again, this has to be a huge mistake. Thanks. ~ Qumarchi 09:38, 1 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Hello again, An administrator checked out all my presumed copyright issues and everything checked out OK. My apologies and thanks for what looks like a great article. The page has now been curated through. Regards. 12:43, 2 November 2021 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of Bobby Sox Idol

The article Bobby Sox Idol has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Fails WP:NSONG, lacks significant coverage in multiple independent secondary sources

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.

Arielle Scarcella moved to draftspace

An article you recently created, Arielle Scarcella, is not suitable as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. (?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of "Draft:" before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page.

Your submission at Articles for creation: Arielle Scarcella (June 22)

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed! Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reason left by Herpetogenesis 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 (see the guidelines on the notability of people). 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 after they have been resolved.

If you would like to continue working on the submission, go to Draft:Arielle Scarcella and click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window.
If you now believe the draft cannot meet Wikipedia's standards or do not wish to progress it further, you may request deletion. Please go to Draft:Arielle Scarcella, click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window, add "{{Db-g7}}" at the top of the draft text and click the blue "publish changes" button to save this edit.
If you do not make any further changes to your draft in the next 6 months, it will be considered abandoned and may be deleted.
If you need any assistance, or have experienced any untoward behavior associated with this submission, you can ask for help at the Articles for creation help desk, on the reviewer's talk page or use Wikipedia's real-time chat help from experienced editors.

Copying licensed material requires attribution

Hi. I see in a recent addition to Western Sydney Dry Rainforest you included material from a webpage that is available under a compatible Creative Commons Licence. That's okay, but you have to give attribution so that our readers are made aware that you copied the prose rather than wrote it yourself. It's also required under the terms of the license. I've added the attribution for this particular instance. Please make sure that you follow this licensing requirement when copying from compatibly-licensed material in the future. — Diannaa (talk) 22:21, 15 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Hi. Sorry, I did not know. But I did try hard summarizing and paraphrasing the sentences as much as I could. I thought they were good enough, as per Ear Wig. I will try to give attribution for the other articles. Thank you for informing me. — Qumarchi 23:47, 15 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

DYK for Iron-grass Natural Temperate Grassland of South Australia

On 7 October 2022, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Iron-grass Natural Temperate Grassland of South Australia, which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that the dominant species in the Iron-grass Natural Temperate Grassland of South Australia are often not grasses at all? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Temperate Grassland of South Australia. You are welcome to check how many pageviews the nominated article or articles got while on the front page (here's how, Iron-grass Natural Temperate Grassland of South Australia), 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.

Thanks for the heads-up. I was editing in a rush and I did not try to put a big effort summarising the words. I shall reedit the section and try to use my own words. — Qumarchi 01:14, 20 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Your edit to Australia

Hello there

I reverted your edit to the etymology section of this article because it is too tangential. There is no evidence that Ulimaroa was ever widely used in English as a name for Australia and it certainly was nowhere near as wide spread as Terra Australis or New Holland. The article isn't about what other countries might have once called Australia. Aemilius Adolphin (talk) 03:53, 7 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
