Reply to your Articles for Creation Help Desk question

  Hello, Hanengerda! I'm Joe Roe. I have replied to your question about a submission at the WikiProject Articles for Creation Help Desk. – Joe (talk) 17:21, 27 December 2017 (UTC)Reply

Hi Joe, thank you very much for your answer. We will just wait and see whether the acticle will be accepted. It has been accepted on the Dutch Wikipedia. We are fairly regular contributors and trustworthy! ;-)
Hi Joe Roe, thanks for all your advice to improve the article on Constant Cornelis Huijsmans. However, the pop-up message that there is an issue with the site concerning inline quotations and sections keeps appearing on my PC, though not on the Ipad. Is there anything I can do about that? Another question I have is the following. In the article on Van Gogh (section: Life, Early years) Huijsmans is mentioned (spelt here as Constantijn C. Huysmans). This site has unfortunately been vandalized and as a result, quite understably, the article is locked. So I have not been able to correct the name of Constant Cornelis Huijsmans in this section. Is there anything I can do about this? Best regards, Hanengerda (talk) 11:36, 30 December 2017 (UTC).Reply

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited George Cheyne (physician), you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Enlightenment (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)

Speedy deletion nomination of An Appeal to All that Doubt (William Law)

edit
 

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 An Appeal to All that Doubt (William Law) 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 {{{value1}}}. 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.

I really do not understand why someone wants this page to be deleted. All the sources have been quoted. The text quotations are from books of the eighteenth century, so no copyright infringements. I personally own the copyright to “The Sprititual Side of Samuel Richardson” which are only used as a reference. Duplications, if any, go back to the original sources from the eighteenth century. The Appeal was written in 1742 by William Law, and I personally have the original first edition of 1742. So WHY would anyone want to delete this article? Best regards, Gerda and Han Hanengerda (talk) 18:13, 1 February 2019 (UTC)Reply

Fortunately, some experienced Wikipedian (Drm 310) stepped in and removed this “speedy deletion” remark! He added that it had been an unfortunate mistake.

  Welcome to Wikipedia. I noticed that your username, "Hanengerda", may not meet Wikipedia's username policy because Wikipedia accounts cannot be shared. If you believe that your username does not violate our policy, please leave a note here explaining why. As an alternative, you may ask for a change of username by completing this form, or you may simply create a new account for editing. While it appears you have been a registered user on Wikipedia for some time, it is unfortunate that no one has noticed until now that this account is shared between two people. This is not allowed under Wikipedia's username policy. Each of you will need your own individual accounts, each accessed by one and only one person, for the accounts' entire lifetimes.

A page you started (The Way to Divine Knowledge) has been reviewed!

edit

Thanks for creating The Way to Divine Knowledge.

I have just reviewed the page, as a part of our page curation process and note that:

This article spends way too much space on a detailed plot summary. Instead, the article should include more information on the book's context and reception. Please see the "Philosophical literature" section of MOS:PHILO for more information on how to format the article.

To reply, leave a comment here and prepend it with {{Re|Rosguill}}. And, don't forget to sign your reply with ~~~~ .

@Rosguill:

Thank you for reviewing the page on William Law’s “The Way to Divine Knowledge”. I appreciate your comments. There is indeed a lot of detailed plot summary. The reason for this was that the book itself was and still is not widely available. I have been fortunate enough to have been able to buy a contemporary edition. I felt that in order to allow users of Wikipedia to interpret “The Way to Divine Knowledge” on its own merits to quote the original text as much as possible. This way I thought to avoid the contamination of the text with my own interpretation. Also, I thought I avoided the comments of “citation needed”. If you feel the need to delete some of the citations of the book, and if you believe that this will indeed improve the page, that is just fine. I am only sorry to see some of the beautiful prose that William Law wrote to be lost in editing the page. But so be it. As to the reception of William Law’s works, especially as to the reception of his so called “mystical works” which appeared after 1737, I can say that some people liked his “mystical” writings, such as Samuel Richardson, George Cheyne and John Byrom, and even the Methodist Charles Wesley appreciated his works, whereas some people such as William Warburton and the Methodist John Wesley, the brother of Charles Wesley, deeply disliked Law’s “mystical” works. So, you see, very little has changed over the centuries: we are either “for” or “against” someone or something. For the reception of William Law’s works by his contemporaries I refer you to the page on William Law. For a twentieth-century reaction see Aldous Huxley’s comments on the page of William Law. Best regards, Gerda Hanengerda (talk) 17:09, 4 April 2019 (UTC)Reply

@Rosguill:Dear Rosguill, as per your advice I looked up the "Philosophical literature" section of MOS:PHILO and I have shortened the citations and the text accordingly. I have added some general information as to how the book was received by Law’s contemporaries as well as by some critics of the nineteenth and twentieth century. I hope this will suffice for the page to be accepted as a good Wikipedia contribution and that the tags on top of the page can be removed. Best regards, Gerda.
