Hi welcome to Wikipedia. When you create an article please don’t indent the first line of each paragraph - this makes the text display in a grey box. Have fun and put a message on my talk page if you need any help. All the best Mccapra (talk) 14:00, 18 December 2020 (UTC)

Kinh Bac region moved to draftspace

An article you recently created, Kinh Bac region, is not suitable 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.

Improving your articles

Hi a couple of pieces of advice. Firstly, start every paragraph of text on the left. Don’t leave a space, or your text appears in a grey box. Secondly, you need to format your references. When you’re editing you’ll see a toolbar at the top of your screen you’ll see a “Cite” menu. Hit that and it brings up options including “Templates”. Hit that and you’ll find templates for citing web pages, books etc. Have fun. Mccapra (talk) 06:28, 19 December 2020 (UTC)

Links to draft articles

Please do not introduce links in actual articles to draft articles, as you did to Cao Lang Province. Since a draft is not yet ready for the main article space, it is not in shape for ordinary readers, and links from articles should not go to a draft. Such links are contrary to the Manual of Style. These links have been removed. Thank you. - Arjayay (talk) 13:35, 23 December 2020 (UTC)

Sources

Hi I see you’re getting a lot of articles moved back to draft space. I reviewed and passed one of your articles, Cao Lang Province, last week. The reason that one passed and these others aren’t passing is because you provided proper sources for Cao Lang Province. If you want to get your other articles out of draft space into the main encyclopaedia, you need to provide proper sources as you did for that one. Let me know if you need any help by leaving a message on my talk page. All the best Mccapra (talk) 17:05, 23 December 2020 (UTC)

Categories in draft articles

Please "de-activate" categories in draft articles. There are two common ways to do this. One is to put a colon, :, before the word Category, so the category name looks like [[:Category:Example category]]. The other is to use Template:Draft categories. I have already fixed up Draft:We Baby Bears for you.

Also, {{DISPLAYTITLE}} has a very limited use, see WP:DISPLAYTITLE for details. If you want to italicize an entire title, consider using Template:Italic title instead. davidwr/(talk)/(contribs) 🎄 21:03, 30 December 2020 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Dinsmore, Texas

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 Dinsmore, Texas 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.tshaonline.org/handbook/entries/dinsmore-tx. 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.
