[edit]Note on adding unsourced content
[edit]
Hey, I'm Z0. I noticed that you added content to an article but didn't provide a reliable source. You should cite a reliable source for all of your edits so that they can be verified. In Wikipedia, verifiability means that other people using the encyclopedia can check that the information comes from a reliable source. Adding unsourced content contravenes Wikipedia's policy on verifiability. If you need guidance on referencing, please see the referencing for beginners tutorial.
Wikipedia does not publish original research, which refers to material—such as facts, allegations, ideas, and personal experiences—for which no reliable, published sources exist. Its content is determined by previously published information rather than the beliefs or experiences of its editors. Even if you're sure something is true, it must be verifiable before you can add it. The verifiability policy requires inline citations for any material challenged or likely to be challenged, and for all quotations, anywhere in article space. Articles should be based on reliable and published sources (see Wikipedia:Neutral point of view) and if no reliable sources can be found on a topic, Wikipedia should not have an article on it.
Please review the guidelines at Wikipedia:Citing sources and take this opportunity to add references to the article. The editor whose username is Z0 06:30, 20 July 2018 (UTC)
- Hello - I understand. I believe Wikipedia is an effort toward free, open knowledge. Where might I publish material so that it can be referenced? I understand this may seem unusual or counter to ideals however I intend for this information to change the world. Please highlight with me the best process I can follow; after all, this is why I am using Wikipedia - to collaborate on distributing the information. It was collaborative effort between individuals that created the content. Thewolfde (talk) 06:37, 20 July 2018 (UTC)
- As a further note, I would like to note that I have not been editing existing information or asserting that something I know overwrites something else. I am only adding new information; citing a publication that cites You as a reference. Thewolfde (talk) 07:14, 20 July 2018 (UTC)
- Hello, Thewolfde. Wikipedia is not for original research. The information you add to Wikipedia should be cited with a reliable source. Wikipedia itself is not a reliable source so whatever publication that cites it should be avoided. Adding new information is fine but if that knowledge comes from just you, then it is considered original research which is not discouraged here. The information/content has to be supported by independent and reputable sources such as The New York Times, Forbes, etc. I would recommend you to read the following policies/guidelines: Five pillars, What Wikipedia Is Not, Neutral Point of View, Verifiability, No Original Research and Biographies of Living Persons. When writing an article: the subject should meet the notability criteria, there shouldn't be any unverifiable content, there must not be copyright violations and the article must be written neutrally without looking promotional. Also, the article should comply with the policies/guidelines listed above such as No Original Research or What Wikipedia Is Not. If you have any questions you may ask the Help desk and if you want to publish more articles, I encourage you to use the Articles for Creation process which helps new editors with article submissions.

- Thank you! That is excellent information. I will review prior to taking further action online. Thewolfde (talk) 08:33, 20 July 2018 (UTC)
Incomprehensible articles.
[edit]Your articles are far too short and lacking in information for me to know what they are about. I moved them the draft area where you can work on them further. — Frayæ (Talk/Spjall) 10:06, 20 July 2018 (UTC)
- Thanks Frayæ, I appreciate the assistance. Perhaps you can help further - I am fairly new to the online information community. Thewolfde (talk) 13:11, 25 July 2018 (UTC)
Handbook
[edit]I wanted to mention that I have been offline for a while due to events I have directly caused - moving house is the primary reason. I intend on finalising the handbook in a few weeks. If anyone is watching; get in touch.

Foodchain Information
[edit]No judgement, safe space. Some people do suffer life. I was reading some material recently on the web (outside of Wiki) which i am now unable to find - I am experiencing a feeling similar to reserving a library book, and Knowing it may not exist, yet intrigued equally.
Thanks for your considerations :)

I also wonder if the word 'citation' typically feels always costly - like a speeding ticket / moving violation. Perhaps Hollywood axiom only - using the word citation to avoid footage of bystanders pointing at the road sign and avoiding negative-phrasing like infringement or violation to maintain a characters' intended clout. "He gave me a citation" is a phrase I have always misinterpreted, it seems. Consider this an ironic citation of itself. Thewolfde (talk) 22:44, 1 September 2018 (UTC)

[edit]What is on your mind? Thewolfde (talk) 11:36, 27 November 2018 (UTC)
Hello, Thewolfde. It has been over six months since you last edited the Articles for Creation submission or draft page you started, Draft:Floating System.
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 wish to retrieve it, you can request its undeletion by following the instructions at this link. An administrator will, in most cases, restore the submission so you can continue to work on it. — JJMC89 (T·C) 04:17, 21 January 2019 (UTC)
