Count.It Draft deletion

[edit]

Hi Jimfbleak,

You deleted a draft I was doing on an app I use on my phone. URL: https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Draft:Count.It_draft&action=edit&redlink=1

I'm learning how to do Wikipedia editing and I think I can now address the concerns raised for why it was deleted. I am going to retry but it is suggested that I reach out to you first. Is it best to create a new page or have this one available to edit?

Page Removal

[edit]

Hello @Jimfbleak. I was informed you removed a page I'd created about the zero g coffee cup. I'd like to reapply the page for consideration as I believe its removal was unwarranted. I can correct any citations you specifically want removed, but having reviewed them, I have trouble seeing issue with them. All citations were from reputable primary sources, per the Wikipedia Reliable Sources page (these being, exclusively, the US Government Patent Office, NASA, and NatGeo), and were listed appropriately in all areas where potential subjectivity required a fact to back it up. I have no social, financial, or literal connection to this item - I am just a humble spaceflight and microgravity aficionado that thought it deserved its own page, seeing as it is literally the first item legally invented in space. Ever. If the ScrubDaddy can have its own Wikipedia page, this should too. Literally no one commercializes it either. I'd appreciate any further guidance on rectifying this removal and reinstating the page, as I think it deserves a little place in online history. I am here to support anything you may need from me on this. Thank you. Gspinty1 (talk) 22:40, 12 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Note

[edit]

Hi, thank you for your help with the infobox. Regards, Karol739 (talk) 13:06, 16 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Karol739, no problem, they can be a bit of a nightmare Jimfbleak - talk to me? 13:07, 16 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Yeah, especially when this was my second article on en wiki. I'm planning to do some more work on those snakes, at least until I'm banned :) If you can criticize my work in any way, go ahead. I want to learn something new. Thanks again, Karol739 (talk) 13:15, 16 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Karol739, I'm guessing that not much is known about these snakes. A couple of minor things: check that you've italicised binomials in the refs, ranges should be ndashed, not hyphenated, use &ndash followed immediately be a semicolon, and if you wish you can give imperial conversions eg {{convert|1500|–|2450|m}} gives 1,500–2,450 metres (4,920–8,040 ft)

Request to proofread article

[edit]

Hi, you previously gave me some advice regarding a Wikipedia page that I had submitted, which had been removed for copyright infringement. I have now redone this page and referenced every sentence and fixed my tone to be more neutral. You had suggested that I can send this page to you to proofread before submitting it and to reduce the chances of my contribution being undone. This is the link to the page: Draft:Adam Elshaug. I have also declared the conflict of interest and alternative account. Let me know what you think and whether I need to make any more changes before submitting this draft for review. Red Tiger 5 (talk) 23:56, 16 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Red Tiger 5 I made these changes, removing external links in the text and refs for publications mainly. I'll look at the content later, but two obvious issues are that LinkedIn is not acceptable as a reference, and your publications in the list need formatting as such, I've done the first one for you. Jimfbleak - talk to me? 07:49, 17 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Red Tiger 5 I've made these further changes, mostly removing inappropriate sources like LinkedIn and his own papers which are obviously not independent third-party sources. Either find proper sources or remove the text Jimfbleak - talk to me? 15:16, 17 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Message

[edit]

Hi [[User:Jimfbleak|Jimfbleak], thanks for your message about my draft. It's actually my first full article on wikipedia. I couldn't save it as a draft so I just submitted it. I was intending to carry on editing it over the next week or so. I would appreciate any help I can get to get it up to wikipedia standards. One Angry Penguin (talk) 13:52, 18 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
