Copying licensed material requires attribution

Hi. I see in a recent addition to List of World Heritage Sites in Canada 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) 11:37, 25 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Spicomellus

Hi. You recently reverted my edit on the Spicomellus article, even though, from what I read in the paper, there was nothing wrong with it. Would you be so kind as to provide me with the reasoning behind your action? Sincerely, TimTheDragonRider (talk) 19:25, 23 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Kuhnemys moved to draftspace

An article you recently created, Kuhnemys, 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. ... discospinster _talk 16:10, 27 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

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.

Your submission at Articles for creation: List of closed zoos in Canada (January 21)

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

Is there any particular reason why this needs to be its own standalone list, and can't just be accommodated as a section of the existing List of zoos in Canada? We don't have two separate "List of zoos in X" and "List of closed zoos in X" articles for any other country on earth, and the existing Canadian list is nowhere near long enough to need special splitouts for size management purposes -- so why does this need to be a separate article instead of just part of List of zoos in Canada?

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:List of closed zoos in Canada and click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window.
If you do not edit 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.

List of museums with Egyptian Mummies on display

Are you sure this is going to be maintainable? Museums don't always say that much when they rotate their collections. Also is this limited to human mummies?©Geni (talk) 17:11, 1 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

1. Yeah. Maybe change it to "in their collections?"

3. Indeed it's only human mummies. Roadrunnerfromhell (talk) 20:35, 1 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Deletion discussion about Northumberland Zoo

Hello Roadrunnerfromhell, and thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia.

While your contributions are appreciated, I wanted to let you know that I've started a discussion about whether an article that you created, Northumberland Zoo, should be deleted, as I am not sure that it is suitable for inclusion in Wikipedia in its current form. Your comments are welcome at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Northumberland Zoo.

Deletion discussions usually run for seven days and are not votes. Our guide about effectively contributing to such discussions is worth a read. The most common issue in these discussions is notability, but it's not the only aspect that may be discussed; read the nomination and any other comments carefully before you contribute to the discussion. Last but not least, you are highly encouraged to continue improving the article; just be sure not to remove the tag about the deletion nomination from the top.

If you have any questions, please leave a comment here and prepend it with {{Re|Cremastra}}. And don't forget to sign your reply with ~~~~ . Thanks!

(Message delivered via the Page Curation tool, on behalf of the reviewer.)
