New concepts

[edit]

Wikipedia is a compendium of already-published information about topics which are already notable. We have no place for neologisms, for non-notable new concepts and inventions, etc. That is not a flaw; it is a major design feature. We do some things here, but not all things. --Orange Mike | Talk 14:18, 7 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

September 2012

[edit]

Thank you for your contributions. I am glad to see that you are discussing a topic. However, as a general rule, talk pages such as Homeopathy are for discussion related to improving the article, not general discussion about the topic. If you have specific questions about certain topics, consider visiting our reference desk and asking them there instead of on article talk pages. Thank you. Please also remember to sign your talk page posts with four tildes (~~~~) so we know who we are talking to. Many thanks – MrX 20:44, 9 September 2012 (UTC)MrX 20:44, 9 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]


Hi, Sergio! Welcome to Wikipedia. I know that you are acting in good faith, but you are going to be a more effective editor if you are very familiar with and thoroughly understand WP Policies and Guidelines. Like many new editors, you have some problem with understanding what NPOV means. Please read WP:NPOV, WP:RS, WP:MEDRS, WP:FRINGE and WP:V carefully, and a lot of your questions will be answered.

If, after thoroughly and carefully reading these policies and guidelines, there is still something that you do not understand, feel free to contact me, or any other experienced editor, on their talk page, or ask at WP:TEAROOM.

Be patient and give yourself time to thoroughly understand the policies. All new editors have a little trouble with them at the beginning. Also, you might try getting some experience editing on-controversial topics that you know a lot about. Articles on controversial topics are usually a bad place to start, as other editors will expect you to be up on policy and sometimes not be very patient and understanding if you're not.

As for now, you just don't have the grasp of out policies and guidelines needed to formulate your proposal in a way that other editors can understand and react to. You're going off in irrelevant directions that mean nothing in terms of WP policies. This is frustrating for both you and us. For example, you keep bringing up the Google search issue, which nobody here cares about. It's simply not our problem.

My advice is to stick around, get some experience editing non-controversial articles, lurk in on the discussions at article talk pages to see how experienced editors reason and interpret policy, and read up on our Policies and Guidelines. Then you will be better equipped to make proposals on controversial articles that make sense to other editors and that they can respond to.

Good luck, and happy editing! Dominus Vobisdu (talk) 21:04, 9 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I've just answered many of your questions on the article talk page. Really, very, very few editors here has the slightest interest in how our editing affects Google, and I doubt that many have the faintest idea. You have a bit to learn about appealing when your proposal is turned down on the article talk page. The next step is asking at one of the policy related noticeboards (WP:RSN, WP:NORN, WP:NPOVN, WP:BLPN, WP:N/N and WP:FTN, for example, but since your proposal is not based on policy, as far as I can tell, you are unlikely to make any headway there. Give it some time until you become more familiar with the policies and guidelines, and you are more likely to acchive the results you want. Good luck!
