Ways to improve Midknight Valencia Orange

Hi, I'm Mduvekot. Grapefruit17, thanks for creating Midknight Valencia Orange!

I've just tagged the page, using our page curation tools, as having some issues to fix. Please add a lead, summarizing the most important points from the article.

The tags can be removed by you or another editor once the issues they mention are addressed. If you have questions, you can leave a comment on my talk page. Or, for more editing help, talk to the volunteers at the Teahouse.

Deletion discussion about Kepler-124b

Hello, Grapefruit17,

I wanted to let you know that there's a discussion about whether Kepler-124b should be deleted. Your comments are welcome at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Kepler-124b .

If you're new to the process, articles for deletion is a group discussion (not a vote!) that usually lasts seven days. If you need it, there is a guide on how to contribute. Last but not least, you are highly encouraged to continue improving the article; just be sure not to remove the tag about the deletion nomination from the top.

Thanks,

In your response to the AfD, you stated Finally I see no reason why integrating real numbers and statistics into my article from reliable sources that I cited, isn't original research. Please read WP:OR. Original research is prohibited in Wikipedia. We are a tertiary source, we only report what is reported elsewhere.

In limited cases, some derivation of numbers can be performed, but in general, it is preferred that any numbers cited in Wikipedia be in the form used in the source cited. In other words, if a source were to specify a distance in feet, you should quote feet in the article, perhaps with a converted value in parenthesis (probably using the {{convert}} template). It looks like your article took numbers from a source and dividing them by other numbers to come up with new values and percentages - that's generally considered WP:OR, and generally frowned upon.

As for citation from webpages, please read WP:RS about reliable sources. Generally, arbitrary web pages are not considered reliable sources. In the particular case of exoplorer.org, it is explicitly not considered a reliable source. The site indicates: This site ... is being built since November 2015, as a hobby project where I am trying to mix my software engineering skills with a passion to astronomy and the Science of the Universe. That indicates the site is self-published with no editorial oversight. See WP:RSSELF for an explicit description which makes that site unacceptable.
