Another Project Gutenberg author with a missing article. This author led a fascinating life ... until he drowned. Comments welcome.

Hi, I just finished my first article. It is currently in my SANDBOX. ¿How do I get this article POSTED on Wikipedia??

Thank you, Vso737 (talk) 03:42, 22 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

To publish the article you need to move it from your user space to mainspace. To do this, look at the top of the page of your article draft, for the line that starts "user page", "discussion" ... Towards the right of that line you see a star. To the right of that star is a downward facing triangle. Hover over or Click on it and a dropdown menu item "move" will appear. Select "move". When it asks for the name (there's a fill-in box with "User:vso737/José Miguel Noguera" already filled in) just subtract everything but the name you want. This is also your chance to correct any errors in spelling or otherwise with the article name. Tkotc (talk) 07:12, 22 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]
By the way, I put this information up as a courtesy to you because you appear so anxious and you had not yet received a response — but your article has a big banner on it that refers to items that need correction before the article will survive in mainspace. I described these to you in a Feedback post on January 14, and they have not been completely addressed. If you do not deal with these matters before you move your article to mainspace, don't be surprised if someone kicks it right back. If you have questions about how to do these things, ask here or ask Help. Tkotc (talk) 07:31, 22 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you very much for the information and explanations. YES, I do need help. Navigating through all of this is quite an experience. One thing that I'm still confused about is that you suggested I place my pictures in a gallery. I put a lot of pictures in a gallery and one of the rejections is that I should put them in a gallery. I'm confused. As far as the references not formatted properly, I need help with that and will keep on trying. Thanks again for all your help........slowly but surely. I will get there.

I see the article was not accepted. Here are some suggestions. 1. Use only 5 pictures total. 2. You cannot use Wikipedia articles for references, only as wikilinks. 3. Photographs do not document facts. Text documents facts. (I suggest that you work on a separate word processor or editor document to do the following.) You need to list the documents you are using as references. If they are online, you need to list the links. If they are not online, you will need to gather facts about the document. 4. Look at Wikipedia:Citation templates. Copy the "cite web" template. Fill in the blanks for each online reference. Insert everything between the {{ }} marks, including the marks themselves, between a pair of <ref></ref> tags. For documents that are not online, see Wikipedia:Citing sources. Make "ref" tags for that stuff. Now fit all those "ref tagged" materials in the appropriate place in the proposed article. 6. Come back here and make sure people are happy with the format before you post to mainspace. I will probably not review your article again, so that a fresh pair of eyes will take a look at it. Good luck. I think your subject would make a good article. Tkotc (talk) 18:46, 22 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

posted a new page - a very short article. cited my references. just looking for feedback to improve quality of the wiki article. Thanks for your help.

I wonder if perhaps this information might best be merged into an existing article, eg. Doppler effect#Astronomy?
In any case, your article discusses this effect only as being "when stellar photons [arrive] at orbiting dust particles". But this would be a much more general effect that also occurs outside of that one specific context; ie., it should not be defined just in terms of "circumstellar dust particles" but as a general property of all rotating, light-emitting bodies. WikiDao 16:52, 22 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]


Thanks WikiDao. After some pondering, I first thought merging the content into the existing article, Doppler effect#Astronomy would be a good resting place for it, but further inspection revealed separate articles for multiple variations on the Doppler Effect such as Relativistic and Photoacoustic Doppler effects, so therefore I think the Differential Doppler effect should appear as a separate wiki article. I think it is as significant as the other variants to warrant a separate page and will allow making future references to the Differential Doppler effect easier. Your comments are appreciated and were impetus to revise the wording of the article. UptheTrail ☯

Hi UptheTrail. I made a couple of very minor changes, and will make further comments on the article on its talk page. I am mostly concerned right now with the anthropomorphization of dust particles -- they do not "experience" or "perceive" this effect, could you give some thought to rewording...? Thanks, WikiDao 16:50, 24 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

This is an incomplete list of anime titles directed to people who want to review the titles that they missed (like in a series of seasons) and those who want to read a review of a title that they are thinking of getting for themselves. Any contribution for this article are most welcome, as well as any hepl to edit this article to a agreable standard. Please do add to the list of titles (the titles being those that I personally own and recommend) given and other relevant materials that are recommended and constructive (does anyone know how to apply tables and rating scores in wiki?) to this article. Thank you.

Just a request for a review of the article. It is still a more or less a work-in-progress, and I am adding more sources and information as it becomes available. Thanks!

Manchester Operation

[edit]

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Manchester_operation Manchester operation is used in uterine prolapse procedures mainly. But with the advancement in gynecological procedures, Manchester Operatin is also used for uterovaginal and procidential operation in gynecology. I wrote small note for wikipedia on this operation after my study from different books, as i referred in topic too, also some date is adopted from practical experience and internet good will useage.
I request two things, first to add template in gynecological procedures for uterovaginal operations, since wikipedia lack that portion of combined uterine and vaginal prolapse. Second, review it with me.

Cramér's V (statistics)

[edit]

Hello all, I'd be glad to receive any suggestion on the new article I put together (Cramér's V (statistics)).

It is in the topic of statistics, but general review is also welcomed.


Talgalili (talk) 12:21, 22 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

This is my first Wikipedia article so I'd like some feedback.

Oloye79 (talk) 13:32, 22 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

This is my first Wikipedia article and I would appreciate feedback. I would have added photographs of two of this artist's pictures but I couldn't work out how!

You created your article in mainspace, not your userspace. Unfortunately so much remains to be done that it is possible your article will be deleted. If you feel you have the makings of a good article and this happens, please use the article wizard to re-create it in your userspace.
Putting an image in an article is just adding a wikilink (using a pair of square brackets like this:[[stuff]]). So what is the "stuff". Look at Wikipedia:Images and Wikipedia:Picture tutorial for information and examples of what you need to put inside those square brackets. If you don't know how to upload an image, see Help:Files.

I request feedback on my article about Captain John Mott. How do I go about getting a review of the article.

In putting together this page for the law firm I have made reference to other firms already published on Wikipedia so I hope the form it takes is considered acceptable. It is not meant to be a form of advertising - I've steered clear of contact details, news of deals etc.

Thanks.

I have written this article about a new sociological concept. I have included reliable sources which include peer-reviewed journals. Could you please give me feedback before I post it? Thank you!

I have an idea while hoovering on hyperlinks... hassan210360 at hotmail.

[edit]

While hoovering on the hyperlink, there is this new additional popups short information about the link (or the content of the link) which is really very good and saves lots of time and effort reading without having to open another linked page.

However, it would be great if there could be a kind of user setup or sub-links on the poped up page where the languages could be also displayed either as link or directly translated / displayed from the original.

For instance, if in my sittings I select to have the Arabic as the Pop-up hyperlined. then when I hoover any other language I can see the hyperlink popup in that selected language. Otherwise, a setting with no language will display what is avail.
