My random edit to the misuse of sandbox page...

Hey, I'm sorry I was messing around and was not trying to bother anyone. I'll stop. sorry. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 174.23.175.139 (talk) 03:59, 1 March 2015 (UTC)

WikiCup 2015 March newsletter

One of several of Godot13's quality submissions during round 1

That's it, the first round is done, sign-ups are closed and we're into round 2. 64 competitors made it into this round, and are now broken into eight groups of eight. The top two of each group will go through to round 3, and then the top scoring 16 "wildcards" across all groups. Round 1 saw some interesting work on some very important articles, with the round leader Australia Freikorp (submissions) owing most of his 622 points scored to a Featured Article on the 2001 film Final Fantasy: The Spirits Within which qualified for a times-two multiplier. This is a higher score than in previous years, as Smithsonian Institution Godot13 (submissions) had 500 points in 2014 at the end of round 1, and our very own judge, Colorado Sturmvogel_66 (submissions) led round 1 with 601 points in 2013.

In addition to Freikorp's work, some other important articles and pictures were improved during round one, here's a snapshot of a few of them:

13:45:45, 1 March 2015 review of submission by Aadhikari1106


Declined because of copyright violation. Aadhikari1106 (talk) 13:45, 1 March 2015 (UTC)

I took some of the information from http://www.modulaware.com/mdlt11.htm and credited the website as one of the reference. I am not sure why the section taken from the website deleted and my article was declined with reason 'Copyright violation.'

Citation

Can you please guide me to the best place for learning how to do proper citation for my wiki article. I tend to get a little lost looking for it and wan to make sure I'm doing it correctly. Any help will greatly be appreciated. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Joseph Jensen (talkcontribs) 20:12, 1 March 2015 (UTC)

Request on 16:10:13, 2 March 2015 for assistance on AfC submission by Cdettman64


RHaworth, I resubmitted my article and it was deleted because of unambiguous copyright infringement of http://aalbc.com/auth/kimberla.htm This is a page dedicated to the author that I believed would give another reliable source to the article. When I asked the previous reviewer how many additional footnotes were needed, they state there is no correct amount, but that it appeared I had improved the quality of the links. Thus, I resubmitted and got your response. I'm not even sure now how to go back and look at the draft, since it's been deleted? Do I need to start entirely over, can't I access my last version? Totally lost and would appreciate your help! Thank you so much, Cdettman64 (talk) 16:10, 2 March 2015 (UTC)cdettman64

Request on 11:59:56, 15 March 2015 for assistance on AfC submission by Vivere35


I request assistance, since I did not understand the motivation leading to decline the article. I have seen the guidelines on the notability of people and the golden rule, and I wonder why the information provided is not verifiable. In other words, the editors of the journals and books cited are among the leaders in the field and they constitute also reliable sources that are entirely independent of the subject. Could you please kindly tell me with some more detail why my argument is wrong? Could you also please suggest me what else I should do to improve the article? (Notice that there are not only the selected citations, but there is also reference to the personal page of RS for further details). Thank you very much for your patience.

Draft:Hild (novel) ready for resubmission

My prior submission of Draft:Hild (novel) contained a publisher's blurb I had quoted in the Novel summary section. I've replaced that with my own text and have made numerous other edits. I'm about to resubmit the page for publication and I wonder if you'd have time to read it before I do and let me know if you see any other problems. Thanks!
