Welcome! I also responded to your query at Wikipedia:New contributors' help page. See there for my response. --Jayron32 04:11, 10 November 2009 (UTC)
I saw your question at WP:New contributors' help page. If you'd like, you can simply copy the contents of User:Andreldritch non-confirmed users can't move pages, but they can create new pages in article space. You're the only author, so there's no WP:GFDL issue. Alternately, I'd be happy to move it for you.
However, it might be better to tweak it a little more before doing so, to limit the possibility of bad things happening to it when it gets moved into article space. New articles sometimes have a rough time running the gauntlet of new page patrollers, especially when created by new editors. Not really fair, but it happens. I'm certainly no content genius, but I could help a little with wikifying, formatting, sourcing, etc. if you'd like, to help improve the odds. --Floquenbeam (talk) 05:14, 10 November 2009 (UTC)
- And, of course, when you move the article into mainspace, the title should be H. P. Newquist rather than "HP Newquist". As Floquenbeam intimated, the article does need wikification and formatting work first, though. Deor (talk) 15:24, 10 November 2009 (UTC)
Hi Andre, I'll reply here to your comment on my talk page, to keep things together; I'm watching this page, so you can reply here. Like I said, I'm no content wizard, but I can try to help as best I can. It's only my opinion, but I'd suggest we work on this a little more in your user space before moving it. The big thing you have to deal with is the notability guideline, particularly as it relates to authors. If you can't meet WP:AUTHOR, there's a good chance someone is going to suggest the article be deleted. I noticed you said that his Brain book was "award winning". Can you find a link to a web page that shows this? When I've got a few minutes, I'll start doing the light lifting, and play with the formatting a little (if it looks nice, people are more inclined to let it live), but your key hurdle will be WP:AUTHOR. I think he passes it, myself, but we need to demonstrate it. --Floquenbeam (talk) 21:32, 10 November 2009 (UTC)
- Also, do the external links you have at the bottom of the page work for you? My browser crashes every time I try to load them, something about too many PDF files... --Floquenbeam (talk) 21:34, 10 November 2009 (UTC)
Thanks for letting me fiddle with your article. Feel free to undo/revert/change anything you disagree with, I don't have strong feelings about any of the changes. I did it in lots of small steps so you can undo any particular change easier. It still needs some work, but that's what Wikipedia is all about; hopefully others will come along and improve it further. I hope it's ready to survive main space now; only one way to find out, I suppose. I can move it for you if you'd like (let me know). Or, if you'd like the honor of doing it yourself, you only need a couple of more edits and 2 days to be autoconfirmed. --Floquenbeam (talk) 17:22, 11 November 2009 (UTC)
Floquenbeam,
Wow. Looks great. I'd like to move it myself as I need some more practice, and would like to do an article on author William Bayer next. Let's see if I can do the easy stuff -- like moving -- and then will see how that goes. Thanks for your help. Hope to call on you for the next round while I mount the learning curve.
AEAndreldritch (talk) 04:17, 12 November 2009 (UTC)
- You could probably find someone better at this kind of thing than me with about 2 minutes of work, but... sure, if you'd like me to help out again, I'd be happy to. Let me know. When you become autoconfirmed, the move tab should magically appear up above. remember to remove the {{Userspace draft}} template up top, the article creation category at the bottom, remove the colons from the categories I added, and you should be set. Cheers. --Floquenbeam (talk) 04:42, 12 November 2009 (UTC)
A tag has been placed on File:The Rock Ock, an 8-neck stringed instrument.jpg requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section F1 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the image is an unused redundant copy (all pixels the same or scaled down) of an image in the same file format, which is on Wikipedia (not on Commons), and all inward links have been updated.
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 "Click here to 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 removed 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. Stefan2 (talk) 01:16, 13 April 2013 (UTC)
Speedy deletion nomination of File:The Rock Ock 8-necked guitar.jpg
edit
A tag has been placed on File:The Rock Ock 8-necked guitar.jpg requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section F9 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the image appears to be a blatant copyright infringement. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted images or text borrowed from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.

Non-free rationale for File:The Rock Ock Guitar.jpg
edit
Thanks for uploading or contributing to File:The Rock Ock Guitar.jpg. I notice the file page specifies that the file is being used under non-free content criteria, but there is not a suitable explanation or rationale as to why each specific use in Wikipedia is acceptable. Please go to the file description page, and edit it to include a non-free rationale.
If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified the non-free rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'file' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "File" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free media lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If the file is already gone, you can still make a request for undeletion and ask for a chance to fix the problem. If you have any questions, please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Sfan00 IMG (talk) 12:55, 7 May 2013 (UTC)

Hello, I'm BusterD. Your recent edit to the page Winfield Scott appears to have added incorrect information, so I have removed it for now. If you believe the information was correct, please cite a reliable source or discuss your change on the article's talk page. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Since Scott died in 1866, it's extremely unlikely this WS visited the Scottsdale AZ area in the 1880's. The correct entry for linking would be Winfield Scott (chaplain).

edit Hello, I'm Crash Underride. I noticed that you made a change to an article, Alamo Christian Foundation, but you didn't provide a reliable source. It's been removed and archived in the page history for now, but if you'd like to include a citation and re-add it, please do so! If you need guidance on referencing, please see the referencing for beginners tutorial, or if you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page. As done with this edit.

- Just a heads up, Bernie is a diminutive of Bernard. So, if someone goes by Bernie, usually their full name is Bernard, and if you're listing a birth name, you use the full name not a diminutive. (talk page stalker) CrashUnderride 02:06, 22 March 2017 (UTC)
First, the "appropriate place to display it" if his is known as exclusively that, is ya know, the article title which it is.

edit Welcome to Wikipedia. We welcome and appreciate your contributions, including your edits to It (novel), but we cannot accept original research. Original research refers to material—such as facts, allegations, ideas, and personal experiences—for which no reliable, published sources exist; it also encompasses combining published sources in a way to imply something that none of them explicitly say. Please be prepared to cite a reliable source for all of your contributions. Thank you. SummerPhDv2.0 00:36, 6 November 2017 (UTC)
Welcome to Wikipedia. It isn't original research when actual facts are cited in the source material. Each of my notations is indeed factual and related to the text of Derleth's story. Andreldritch (talk) 02:40, 6 November 2017 (UTC)
Gotcha covered with the original story's text. 108.14.110.72 (talk) 03:48, 6 November 2017 (UTC)
- You are combining material from two sources (It and Derleth's story) to support an idea not stated in either source (that they share several plot points). This is synthesis, part of our "No original research" policy. - SummerPhDv2.0 04:28, 6 November 2017 (UTC)
The facts remain the same; that the two stories share similar elements. Obviously neither source is going to state that they share plot points; that is why one points out facts. It is also not synthesis, and I am not doing anything other entering the similarities, which is part of the flexibility of the Wiki world. You are mistaking "original research" and synthesis with factual statements. If you have a problem with including it, I suggest you take it up on the entry talk page if you are going to dispute the facts as entered. Andreldritch (talk) 04:55, 6 November 2017 (UTC)

Is that a knife in my back?
editI was stunned to discover the broadside you delivered against me in a discussion elsewhere.
On the "Michael Baden" page, you objected to my use of the term "fired" for when Ed Koch dismissed Baden from his position. In response, I supplied no less than five sources which used the term "fired" or "firing" - and then I left the term out of the article anyway, as a concession to you!
