Hi there once again @], | |||
I just wanted to clarify some things about the translation you've been editing. That was actually my first time doing a translation, so it was definitely bound to have mistakes in there. And I reverted the orphan tag because there was one article I found that could be linked (]). Feel free to mark up the page as you like, but I did want to bring this to your attention just so we're on the same page. Cheers! ] (]) 06:43, 9 May 2023 (UTC) | |||

:::@] First, thank you for the kind words once again! I do try my best to make sure everything is ok with the articles. Also, I did see you tagged my translated article with the notability tag. I couldn't bring everything over from the other Wiki (either because I chose not to translate some sections or the templates were too different to easily bring it over). So that may be why the article seems to not be notable enough. Thanks in advance for the response. ] (]) 03:32, 14 May 2023 (UTC) | |||
::::Hi again dear friend, ], I fully understand. My hope is that you might just add a few more citations, rather than more content. Then I think we will be fine. Keep up the great work. Sincere good wishes, ] (]) 03:35, 14 May 2023 (UTC) | |||
:::::@] Yes, the sections and templates I didn't bring over did have additional citations that can be added by someone else (if this helps and if you didn't see already, I specifically added an expansion tag at the top to alert someone else who's interested in translating). Also, some citations like those in Konfuz are blacklisted on the English Misplaced Pages so they are unable to be brought over. With all that said, however, I do understand that the citations should be better and should be more of them. Thanks again and I'll continue to reach out if necessary. ] (]) 04:01, 14 May 2023 (UTC) | |||
::::::@] Hi again. Just a heads up: I made yet another translation (]), but mainly if you come across it, you'll see that there are referencing errors at the bottom. Don't be alarmed, as there are sources there (again, I didn't translate all of the original article so most references still need to be brought over). This is just to give you a heads up of what to expect if you come across it. Cheers again! ] (]) 03:05, 16 May 2023 (UTC) | |||

Hello BoyTheKingCanDance, I hope you're doing well. If you have a moment, I would appreciate it if you could explain a revert to the lede of the article ] you made recently. I was under the assumption that a lede generally is a summary of the article, and should repeat key points made. Is this incorrect? Or is this not the reason you removed the second half of the lede. I am asking primarily for my own future reference. Cheers! ] (]) 21:52, 28 May 2023 (UTC) | |||
{| style="border: 1px solid gray; background-color: #fdffe7;" | |||
:: Hi my friend ], I hope you are fine. Thanks for contacting me. A lede is essentially an introduction. It should introduce the subject and say what he/she/they/it are known for. In that sense, it's not really a summary of the entire article and it therefore doesn't need to say a little about everything. Once a lede gets too large, it often becomes a bit repetitive. Please don't think I mean yours, or that I'm criticising you. You're a really fine editor. I suppose it's a judgement call. In good faith, I sometimes shorten ledes that grow too large in proportion to the overall article. But I may of course be wrong. If another editor thinks I am, and in good faith restores the more voluminous lede, I don't push the issue. We are all just doing our best. So in your case, if you think I was mistaken, by all means, revert me. I certainly won't be offended and I won't challenge your decision. You truly are a very skilled editor.

Thank you for reviewing my article on Fransella and suggesting the category additions. Really appreciated. I hope the additions I have made meet with your approval. I do try and be dispassionate and objective when writing articles. I was just wondering if the word 'virtuoso' to describe Fransella would be acceptable. He is the only flautist, I believe, to have been given the title 'The Paganini of the flute'. I do understand that many other articles use the term to describe musicians but for Fransella I wonder if it might actually be appropriate? Thank you again. ] (]) 17:16, 3 June 2023 (UTC) | |||

:::Thank you so much for your swift response. Yes, I can and have found many references to Fransella as a virtuoso. I have mentioned this in the main article. I was using the term in the strict dictionary meaning which is: ‘a musician of the highest technical skill’ / ‘a person highly skilled in music’, which Fransella no doubt was. I will add a citation to the term in the first paragraph. You are so right about bias.

Firstly, I'd like to thank you and Liz and others for helping me educate myself on how to create articles as I'm pretty sure in my many years of using Misplaced Pages this is my first time actually creating a new article, so the guidance is appreciated! One question I did have is regarding YouTube as a source. While I appreciate in many cases that YouTube may not be a reliable source, I'm not sure how much more reliable a source I can get when it comes to the meaning of a group's name than an interview with the group explaining it in person on a video.

:: Hi my friend ], I hope you are fine. Youtube is not considered a RS in almost every instance. Please see ], and scroll down to YouTube. For an essay explaining why not to use a YouTube video clip as a source, see: ]. It is not an absolute prohibition. The guidelines state: "Content uploaded from a verified official account, such as that of a news organization, may be treated as originating from the uploader and therefore inheriting their level of reliability." Thus, the guidelines are an explanation of the grave complications of using videos, with the qualifier: "Links should be evaluated for inclusion with due care on a case-by-case basis."

:::Unfortunately not! There's a number of inaccurate comments from other sources, and a couple of reliable Korean sites simply refer to the video rather than repeating the information (which is normal, reliable agencies don't simply transcribe interviews made by other news agencies). You mention, however, that a verified official account such as that of a news organisation is acceptable. This YouTube channel in question is for HANBAM, a show made by SBS Korea, which is one of the five major TV networks in South Korea. YouTube just happens to be their chosen outlet for HANBAM releasing both new and archived footage. | |||

Hi, I'm Tife, relatively new on wikipedia. Some days ago I was making some research on an event that happened in Nigeria in 2020 (]). I then stumbled on a Nigerian Independent Reportage by German ] (DW) where they interviewed Nigerian citizens and few notable Nigerians on the aftermath of the event which were Michael Oluwole (Nigerian Music Producer), Muhammad Dingyadi (Minister of Police Affairs) and Human Right Activist Victoria Ibezim-Ohaeri. | |||
I added this news on the ] wikipedia article and in the course of that tried to link their names on wikipedia and they aren't there. So i decided to do a little research and Michael Oluwole turns out to be Mayo MuziQ now Mayolee, a gospel music producer. Gospel music is huge in Africa - though it lacks accurate media coverage - , this individual is responsible for the production of some of the biggest gospel songs in the African region. From Way Maker by ] to Jesus & Cheta by ], Joy Overflow, Done me well, Holyghost by ], My Light by ], Lover of my soul by Elijah Oyelade, list of songs from Israel Strong, Peeyuu, UR flames, TB1, Pastor Saki, CSO and list of other artists. He was also signed to ] in 2020. | |||
{| style="background-color: #fdffe7; border: 1px solid #fceb92;" | |||
So I came on wikipedia to create a page for this individual and realised he had a page that was deleted. I went through the discussions and saw that he was poorly represented by whoever put up the page. The page also looked like someone was using the article to learn wikipedia and didn't do their home work properly. | |||

Thank you for reviewing a couple of new pages I created, I would want to seek your opinion or review on ] especially as regards notability. I’m seeking a second opinion after an editor who I deem a superior to me here added the notability tag. I will appreciate your input + or -, I speak English, lived in Turkey and try to put up as many notable Turks as I can on en WP, and wouldn’t want to spam wiki with unmerited subjects. Kind regards. ] (]) 08:09, 20 June 2023 (UTC) | |||
:: Hi dear ], I hope you are fine. I looked at the page, and think it's well constructed and nicely written. Good work. In terms of notability, I think it probably makes a good case. But I wonder whether you could add a couple more third-party sources (meaning sources not connected to any of the businesses he runs). That would clinch it, I'm sure. Keep up the great work!

Hello, I wanted to discuss this edit: https://en.wikipedia.org/search/?title=Hepburn_ministry&diff=prev&oldid=1261360431 with you. You added various date parameters to citations with this edit. These date parameters appear to be false for the following reasons: | |||
Hi there. Can you give me a more substantive response to the concerns Sandy raised about patrolling? You removed the message with an edit summary of "thanks" which doesn't really get at the issue that was raised. ] (]) 20:00, 25 June 2023 (UTC) | |||
:Hi dear ]. I hope you are doing great. I am very grateful for SandyGeorgia's observations (hence my thanks). It's all a growing and learning process. I certainly take the advice on board.

::I think Barkeep49 (as well as SandyGeorgia) are hoping for a response that addresses the specific concerns raised by SG and what you'll do to not repeat them. For the copyright concerns in particular, the right answer here is quite straightforward; I haven't looked at the unreliable sourcing issues SG mentioned but that merits a specific response as well. <sub>signed, </sub>] <sup>]</sup> 01:36, 26 June 2023 (UTC) | |||
::: Ah I understand what type of clarification you want. I hope this helps. Yes, I will stay viligant to identify unreliable sources. I have often, if fact, highlighted unreliable sources, using the correct template, after searching through the ]. I will make even more effort on this key point. Copyright issues are, of course, also of significant concern. Sometimes I grab sentences of suspicious text and search for their origin if I suspect them. I have even recommended pages for deletion based on copyright violations. But I'll look out for it even more (much more).
