Girdawary moved to draftspace

An article you recently created, Girdawary, does not have enough sources and citations as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. ( ?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed ( verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of "Draft:" before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page.

Your draft article, Draft:Girdawary

Hello, Sugeeth Jayaraj. It has been over six months since you last edited the Articles for Creation submission or Draft page you started, " Girdawary".

In accordance with our policy that Wikipedia is not for the indefinite hosting of material deemed unsuitable for the encyclopedia mainspace, the draft has been nominated for deletion. If you plan on working on it further, or editing it to address the issues raised if it was declined, simply edit the submission and remove the {{db-afc}}, {{db-draft}}, or {{db-g13}} code.

If your submission has already been deleted by the time you get there, and you wish to retrieve it, you can request its undeletion by following the instructions at this link. An administrator will, in most cases, restore the submission so you can continue to work on it.

Thanks for your submission to Wikipedia, and happy editing. CASSIOPEIA( talk) 08:50, 6 July 2019 (UTC) reply

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.

You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on Cotyledonosis requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page appears to be an unambiguous copyright infringement. This page appears to be a direct copy from https://www.mdpi.com/1420-3049/21/3/348. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images taken from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. You may use external websites or other printed material as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. This part is crucial: say it in your own words. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.

If the external website or image belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text or image — which means allowing other people to use it for any reason — then you must verify that externally by one of the processes explained at Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials. The same holds if you are not the owner but have their permission. If you are not the owner and do not have permission, see Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission for how you may obtain it. You might want to look at Wikipedia's copyright policy for more details, or ask a question here.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.

  • Quite apart from being copyvios, the above article and krimpsiekte were academic papers not Wikipedia articles. If you think these subjects are notable, you must take the time to write proper encyclopedia articles. — RHaworth ( talk · contribs) 09:17, 28 October 2019 (UTC) reply

Sorry

I am not a fully experienced person in creating articles, This is just my third article on Wikipedia. Please forgive me if it is wrong to copy from other web pages. Thanks for warning me about it and please delete that article. Sugeeth Jayaraj ( talk) 09:34, 28 October 2019 (UTC) reply

Draft:Girdawary concern

Hi there, I'm HasteurBot. I just wanted to let you know that Draft:Girdawary, a page you created, has not been edited in 5 months. The Articles for Creation space is not an indefinite storage location for content that is not appropriate for articlespace.

If your submission is not edited soon, it could be nominated for deletion. If you would like to attempt to save it, you will need to improve it.

You may request Userfication of the content if it meets requirements.

If the deletion has already occured, instructions on how you may be able to retrieve it are available at WP:REFUND/G13.

Thank you for your attention. HasteurBot ( talk) 01:25, 9 December 2019 (UTC) reply

Electric charge

I have reverted your goodwill edits to the article about Electric charge because:

  • Your edits described charge to be a "basic property", which is not as accurate as describing charge to be a "physical property".
  • It claimed charge to be a "basic property of electrons, protons and other subatomic particles", which is not incorrect, but it does not conclude that charge can be possessed by objects as a whole.
  • It used the phrase "Law of Charges", which is apparently a paraphrase used to refer to Coulomb's law, but your text treats "Law of Charges" to be different from Coulomb's law.
  • The text about neutrality was removed.
  • It provided repetitive description of the properties of matter exhibiting positive and negative charge.

If you think that the aforementioned points do not justify my edits, please let me know. Ambuj Shukla 09:26, 12 December 2019 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Ambujshukla2004 ( talkcontribs)

A Great Time for All!

I've joined Wikipedia over 3 years ago, and it has grown a lot since then. I took it as a passion to correct articles minorly, and thank you for everything. I've learnnt a lot from Wikipedia and also contributed a lot. It's great to be a part of the change.

MinervaNueue

Hi Sugeeth :) I saw your post on the Village Pump where you said you'd like to see the functionality of the MinervaNueue skin expanded. I work at the Wikimedia Foundation and my team is working on improvements to the mobile web experience (mostly through updates to the MinervaNueue skin) so I'd love to hear more about what you'd like to see changed or improved. What do you enjoy about the skin, and what's missing for you? Samwalton9 (WMF) ( talk) 19:06, 11 September 2022 (UTC) reply

I enjoy the part where it is big enough to see, by default. The font and UI is great, and it’s basically better than the vector (2022) version! The experience puts the content at front, and it looks a lot more polished than all other skins on Wikipedia.
The parts where the experience needs improvement is where the functionality lies. It is usually hidden, but more could be added to the floating menu (which is like… the best part of the whole skin). I value functionality combined with aesthetics.
The templates can be better optimised for this skin though. (Mostly, let me be honest, it looks like they are slapped onto the page from other wiki skins.) I believe that it should look a lot more native, like adding curved corners to the templates, change the padding of it a bit, like on the sides, it looks like a bit offset from the main content. Yes, the templates should stand out, but, they should be a lot more integrated into the skin. It’s those little things, that just needs to be corrected. The same goes for the images as well, not all images seem to be properly optimised. Some look too small, even if they are in ‘4K’ quality. They should feel as… they were created for this UI…
This skin feels like a true effort into the Wikipedia User Experience, and over time, I look forward for it to become main experience. All users love a better focus on content, and the MinervaNeue looks like the best bet for the future of Wikipedia’s content. It also looks easy on the eyes, taking away most of the strain.
This is only the first of my three suggestions that I posted on the Village Pump, but I believe this is the most important of them all. The better optimised the content is, the better the user can focus and understand the content. Sugeeth Jayaraj ( talk) 16:30, 12 September 2022 (UTC) reply
@ Sugeeth Jayaraj: Thanks for sharing your thoughts and suggestions! When you say 'the floating menu' do you mean the sidebar which you can pull out from the left side of the screen? Also, we have some questions at Moderator Tools/Content moderation on mobile web/Diff about making improvements to diffs in MinervaNueue. If you have time to read that and let us know what you think I'd really appreciate it, it will help us figure out how to make the best design possible :) Samwalton9 (WMF) ( talk) 10:19, 14 September 2022 (UTC) reply
Yup, I'm talking about that sidebar.
For Question 1: What do you like or dislike about in-line and two-column diff views? Do you just want to use one of these, or should users be able to toggle between them?
A: Users should be able to toggle between both.
For Question 2: What other pages do you think should be linked from diffs?
A: Usually, it would be great if the list of added references can be in a separate section at the bottom.
For Question 3: What do you think of enabling editors to fully undo an edit more quickly, without needing to use the editor?
A: Please, let's do it the quicker way, instead of using the editor. But, let there be a popup dialog to confirm the action too. We don't want accidental reverts!
For the other questions, I'll think and respond as soon as possible :) Sugeeth Jayaraj ( talk) 14:44, 14 September 2022 (UTC) reply
Thanks, much appreciated :) Samwalton9 (WMF) ( talk) 12:43, 15 September 2022 (UTC) reply

Hey there, @Diannaa! I totally get where you're coming from, and I want to address your concern. Let's dive right into it.
First off, I want to highlight that the link you shared actually copied information from Microsoft. [Here's the link - Deprecation of Microsoft Support Diagnostic Tool (MSDT) and MSDT Troubleshooters | Microsoft Support] But fear not, my dear friend, because the words I used were definitely not the same. I put my own spin on them, adding my personal touch and understanding. Trust me, it's a blast!
Oh, and before I forget, let me mention that I took the responsibility of both the Microsoft Support Diagnostic Tool and the article about Basil Seeds recently. These articles are super important in their respective domains, and I wanted to give them the attention they deserve.
Let's talk troubleshooters for a sec. We use them every single day to fix those pesky problems that would otherwise take forever to tackle. So it's absolutely crucial that the MSDT platform gets the recognition it deserves.
Now, onto Basil seeds! These little fellas are renowned worldwide for their incredible uses in faloodas, medicine, and so much more. They're like global celebrities, especially in the US and Asia. And let me tell you, as an Indian, Basil seeds are a big deal in my everyday life!
But here's the kicker: Wikipedia, the ultimate hub of free and original information, only had three measly paragraphs about the MSDT and a measly two sentences about "Basil Seeds." Can you believe it? I was flabbergasted! So, I decided to step up my game and contribute to these two articles in a major way.
I want you to know that I'm well aware of the copyright rules, thanks to a little mishap I had with an article called "Girdawary" four years ago. Lesson learned, my friend! I've since honed my skills and treaded cautiously when it comes to copyrighted content. I prefer putting things in my own words, adding that extra touch of creativity!
You see, I'm just a school student, and time is a precious commodity for me. That's why I usually contribute to Wikipedia in "phases." It takes a little longer, but hey, Rome wasn't built in a day, right?
Now, when it comes to copyright, I have a pretty solid understanding. Facts and information themselves can't be copyrighted. It's the presentation style and one's own creative magic that can be subject to copyright. But hey, correct me if I'm wrong, because I'm always eager to learn and grow!
So here's my request: could you pretty please restore the content of the 07:32, May 22, 2023 revision under the "retirement" section? I truly believe that my concern and reasoning are valid, and I'd be over the moon if you agree. But if I'm mistaken, don't worry, I won't be bummed out. Just explain the reason why my content (the stuff I poured my heart and soul into) is subject to copyright. I'm all ears, ready to learn and become an even better Wikipedia contributor in the future!
Thanks a million for understanding, Diannaa. And please, oh please, forgive me if I've taken up too much of your precious time. You're a rockstar for listening to me this far! - Sugeeth Jayaraj ( talk) 19:16, 23 May 2023 (UTC) reply
