Disambiguation link notification for July 1

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Reach Me, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Variety (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Wikipedia and copyright

Hello AlineXu, and welcome to Wikipedia. All or some of your addition(s) to Draft:Spatini Sauce has had to be removed, as it appears to have added copyrighted material without permission from the copyright holder. While we appreciate your contributing to Wikipedia, there are certain things you must keep in mind about using information from your sources to avoid copyright or plagiarism issues here.

You can only copy/translate a small amount of a source, and you must mark what you take as a direct quotation with double quotation marks (") and cite the source using an inline citation. You can read about this at Wikipedia:Non-free content in the sections on "text". See also Help:Referencing for beginners, for how to cite sources here.
Aside from limited quotation, you must put all information in your own words and structure, in proper paraphrase. Following the source's words too closely can create copyright problems, so it is not permitted here; see Wikipedia:Close paraphrasing. (There is a college-level introduction to paraphrase, with examples, hosted by the Online Writing Lab of Purdue.) Even when using your own words, you are still, however, asked to cite your sources to verify information and to demonstrate that the content is not original research.
Our primary policy on using copyrighted content is Wikipedia:Copyrights. You may also want to review Wikipedia:Copy-paste.
If you own the copyright to the source you want to copy or are a designated agent, you may be able to license that text so that we can publish it here. However, there are steps that must be taken to verify that license before you do. See Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials.
In very rare cases (that is, for sources that are public domain or compatibly licensed), it may be possible to include greater portions of a source text. However, please seek help at the help desk before adding such content to the article. 99.9% of sources may not be added in this way, so it is necessary to seek confirmation first. If you do confirm that a source is public domain or compatibly licensed, you will still need to provide full attribution; see Wikipedia:Plagiarism for the steps you need to follow.
Also note that Wikipedia articles may not be copied or translated without attribution. If you want to copy or translate from another Wikipedia project or article, you can, but please follow the steps in Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia.

It's very important that contributors understand and follow these practices, as policy requires that people who persistently do not must be blocked from editing. If you have any questions about this, you are welcome to leave me a message on my talk page. Please don't add copyright material to this wiki, not even temporarily for editing. Everything you add needs to be written in your own words please. Thank you. — Diannaa 🍁 (talk) 01:04, 28 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Disambiguation link notification for October 2

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Woman Is the Nigger of the World, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Vogue (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Your submission at Articles for creation: Maxine Feibelman (May 18)

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed! Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reason left by Shadowowl was:

This submission does not appear to be written in the formal tone expected of an encyclopedia article. Entries should be written from a neutral point of view, and should refer to a range of independent, reliable, published sources. Please rewrite your submission in a more encyclopedic format. Please make sure to avoid peacock terms that promote the subject.

Please check the submission for any additional comments left by the reviewer. You are encouraged to edit the submission to address the issues raised and resubmit when they have been resolved.

If you would like to continue working on the submission, go to Draft:Maxine Feibelman and click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window.
If you need any assistance, you can ask for help at the Articles for creation help desk or on the reviewer's talk page.
You can also use Wikipedia's real-time chat help from experienced editors.

Hello! AlineXu, I noticed your article was declined at Articles for Creation, and that can be disappointing. If you are wondering why your article submission was declined, please post a question at the Articles for creation help desk. If you have any other questions about your editing experience, we'd love to help you at the Teahouse, a friendly space on Wikipedia where experienced editors lend a hand to help new editors like yourself! See you there! » Shadowowl | talk 18:32, 18 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

To Shadowowl, I am grateful for your helpful comments, and I will work on editing the article's formal tone -- and particularly avoiding peacock words. Thanks, AlineXu (talk) 16:37, 19 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Maggie

Aline,

Thanks for the addition to the Maggie Lettvin article. I created the article, and had to fight for Wikipedia to keep it. I love that NYT article! It's a great addition to the article. I lived in Bexley when they did. Are you an alum? Paulmlieberman (talk) 14:06, 23 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

@Paulmlieberman, yes, I did live in Bexley when the Lettvins lived there. I hope that we (and other wikipedians) will build and bolster Maggie's article to the full extent that she deserves. AlineXu (talk) 16:55, 25 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

John Shannon Hendrix

Hello AlineXu. The article "John Shannon Hendrix" that you recently created and that you update regularly can be further improved to receive more visibility and also to start to be rated for academic notability. Placing the tag for that purpose will begin the process of attracting more editors to improve it just in case some might later find that it does not have sufficient references or does not meet the notability criteria and aim at calling for its deletion. Since you seem to know the content, maybe you can further enhance its quality with citations and references. Thanks (AcademeEditorial (talk) 08:24, 10 July 2017 (UTC))[reply]
