Mirrors

Thanks for contributing to the article Western Lombard dialect. However, one of Wikipedia's core policies is that material must be verifiable and attributed to reliable sources. You have recently used citations which copied, or mirrored, material from Wikipedia. This leads to a circular reference and is not acceptable. Most mirrors are clearly labeled as such, but some are in violation of our license and do not provide the correct attribution. Please help by adding alternate sources to the article you edited! If you need any help or clarification, you can look at Help:Contents/Editing Wikipedia or ask at Wikipedia:New contributors' help page, or just ask me. Thank you.

Ways to improve Luke Homan

Hello, Njavedd,

Thanks for creating Luke Homan! I edit here too, under the username Bensci54 and it's nice to meet you :-)

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

The smiley face theory is the fringe, and should not be mentioned in the lead. Also, I'm not sure if this is notable enough for a stand-alone article.

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 prepend it with {{Re|Bensci54}}. And, don't forget to sign your reply with ~~~~ . For broader editing help, please visit the Teahouse.

Delivered via the Page Curation tool, on behalf of the reviewer.

Why can't I edit some particular pages?

Some pages that have been vandalized repeatedly are semi-protected, meaning that editing by new or unregistered users is prohibited through technical measures. If you have an account that is four days old and has made at least 10 edits, then you can bypass semi-protection and edit any semi-protected page. Some pages, such as highly visible templates, are fully-protected, meaning that only administrators can edit them. If this is not the case, you may have been blocked or your IP address caught up in a range block.

Where can I experiment with editing Wikipedia?

Use the main sandbox or create your own personal sandbox to experiment.

How do I create an article?

See how to create your first article, then use the Article Wizard to create one, and add references to the article as explained below.

How do I create citations?

Do a search on Google or your preferred search engine for the subject of the Wikipedia article that you want to create a citation for.
Find a website that supports the claim you are trying to find a citation for.
In a new tab/window, go to the citation generator, click on the 'An arbitrary website' bubble, and fill out as many fields as you can about the website you just found.
Click the 'Get reference wiki text' button.
Highlight, and then copy (Ctrl+C or Apple+C), the resulting text (it will be something like <ref> {{cite web | .... }}</ref>, copy the whole thing).
In the Wikipedia article, after the claim you found a citation for, paste (Ctrl+V or Apple+V) the text you copied.
If the article does not have a References or Notes section (or the like), add this to the bottom of the page, but above the External Links section and the categories:

==References==
{{Reflist}}

What is a WikiProject, and how do I join one?

A WikiProject is a group of editors that are interested in improving the coverage of certain topics on Wikipedia. (See this page for a complete list of WikiProjects.) If you would like to help, add your username to the list that is on the bottom of the WikiProject page.

PTSD article

Hello Njavedd - I reverted the good faith edits you made to Posttraumatic Stress Disorder. When someone reverts an edit I made, there's a part of me that feels offended. I think that's normal. So I wanted to explain why I reverted your edits. (1) I personally like the abbreviation "i.e." and I use it often in academic writing. But I've learned that on Wikipedia we try to avoid Latin abbreviations because outside of academia many people don't know what they mean. (2) The Medscape article you referenced didn't support the associated text, e.g., "The impact of traumatic events on children is often more far reaching than trauma on an adults ...."

When you are not sure about an edit, I have found the Teahouse to be a great place to ask questions. The folks there respond promptly and are able to answer almost all the questions I've had. Please also feel free to ask me questions.

Even though I've been a Wikipedian for 11 years, other editors often revert or change edits I make. Sometimes they are wrong, but usually they are right and I learn something new.

Keep making edits! We need more good editors like you. :O) - Mark D Worthen PsyD (talk) (I am a man. The traditional male pronouns are fine.) 21:01, 5 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Disambiguation link notification for August 6

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Murders of Abigail Williams and Liberty German, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Charge (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)

It's OK to remove this message. Also, to stop receiving these messages, follow these opt-out instructions. Thanks, DPL bot (talk) 08:47, 6 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Excessive citing

Njavedd, please read WP:CITELEAD and WP:Citation overkill. Sources do not always need to be in the lead if the material is cited lower in the article. And material that is already cited lower in the article by one source may not need additional sources. Flyer22 Reborn (talk) 01:22, 7 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]
