Frank W. Caldwell moved to draftspace
editAn article you recently created, Frank W. Caldwell, 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.

Text removal
editHi Pete, I see that you're new here, so I wanted to make sure you understood why the majority of the text was removed from the article. Basically, we can't use text copied whole from a source, especially if it's copywrited. All sentences need to be rewritten in your own words as a paraphrase or summary. It's just like doing a high school or college paper in that sense. Also, you need to add more sources, such as from newspapers or magazines. They don't have to be available online, but they do need to be reliable published sources.
Wikipedia has a lot of rules and guidelines, and it takes a while to get up to speed. Fortunately, most Wikipedians are willing to help out in any way they can. I hope you find contributing to Wikipedia to be a rewarding experience. - BilCat (talk) 20:39, 27 April 2020 (UTC)

Copying within Wikipedia requires attribution
edit Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you copied or moved text from Caterpillar Club into Edward L. Hoffman. While you are welcome to re-use Wikipedia's content, here or elsewhere, Wikipedia's licensing does require that you provide attribution to the original contributor(s). When copying within Wikipedia, this is supplied at minimum in an edit summary at the page into which you've copied content, disclosing the copying and linking to the copied page, e.g., copied content from [[page name]]; see that page's history for attribution
. It is good practice, especially if copying is extensive, to also place a properly formatted {{copied}} template on the talk pages of the source and destination. Please provide attribution for this duplication if it has not already been supplied by another editor, and if you have copied material between pages before, even if it was a long time ago, you should provide attribution for that also. You can read more about the procedure and the reasons at Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia. Thank you. If you are the sole author of the prose that was copied, attribution is not required. — Diannaa (talk) 13:01, 9 May 2020 (UTC)

editHi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited James Floyd Smith, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Ripcord (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver).

- @Scope creep:. Hello Scope Creep, Didn't know he was deaf and will work to add. BTW Findagrave.com might be a low quality to Wiki, but if you look at https://www.findagrave.com/memorial/116942192/ernest-gilbert-mccauley the grave photo with an inscription from the Sec of USAF is more like a primary source I believe. Thanks for your tips. I've never reverted so if you don't mind I would like to revert your deletion of the McCauley Findagrave source. V/R User:Peteschulz210 (talk) 16:00, 9 July 2020 (UTC)
- @Peteschulz210: Please do not revert the Findagrave. It is a user-generate site, which means its Non-RS, meaning illegal per policy and is flagged up per the WP:NPP process, for removeal. Look for alternate resources, there seems to be plenty about, including the one where walked about a horn as he was deaf. It is in Google books. Hope that helps! scope_creepTalk 16:04, 9 July 2020 (UTC)
- @Scope creep:. copy don't use Findagrave.com, but I'm telling you there is lots of good info there like Ancestry.com. V/RUser:Peteschulz210 (talk) 16:12, 9 July 2020 (UTC)
- That may be so, but is neither here nor there. Its user generated. The same with Ancestry, is just random people putting in information that's not been checked or verified and you don't know if it factual. Don't use them. scope_creepTalk 16:22, 9 July 2020 (UTC)
- @Scope creep: copy. And thanks again for the tips, I'm trying to improve aviation articles and your advise is very welcomed. V/rUser:Peteschulz210 (talk) 16:25, 9 July 2020 (UTC)
- Now the article been created, Google graph will update over the next three months and you'll find a lot a new information will appear when you search for it. Its a weird thing, its google algorithm working. Also check jstor, fold3, Taylor and Frances, newspapers.com and other archives like that. I'm fully confident that in 3 months there will be plenty of sources available for it. scope_creepTalk 16:30, 9 July 2020 (UTC)

Newspaper.com citations
editHi Peteschulz210. Thank you for contributing an article on Charles H. Land. After reviewing it, I wanted to give a quick bit of advice about citing articles from Newspapers.com. I noticed that your citations included the Newspapers.com URL and the title of the article, but not the name of the newspaper or the date of publication. To aid with verifiability, please include this information so that readers can still track down the source if the URL goes bad. Here's an example of a citation I changed:[1][2]
As a sidenote, please avoid using Find a Grave as a source. This is typically not considered a reliable source, as explained at WP:FINDAGRAVE-EL. – Lord Bolingbroke (talk) 00:17, 19 July 2020 (UTC)
- @Lord Bolingbroke: Thanks, I used the drop down menu "Templates" -"cite news" with the following results on Edward L. Hoffman. What template did you use if any? [3]. User:Peteschulz210 (talk) 00:54, 19 July 2020 (UTC)
- I use the {{cite news}} template and manually fill in the parameters in the wikitext. Here is a blank version of what I used:
{{cite news |title= |newspaper= |date= |page= |url= |via=}}
I don't like using the drop-down menu since it doesn't include some specialized parameters such as|via=
. You can check the wikitext at Charles H. Land to see how I did things with specific citations. Hope this helps. – Lord Bolingbroke (talk) 03:45, 19 July 2020 (UTC)

editYour article moves
editI've reverted (or started the process of reverting) your moves of List of U.S. Ballooning Hall of Fame Inductees and National Balloon Museum to draftspace. DO NOT move articles to draft space for the purpose of "eventual deletion"; note the guidelines at WP:DRAFTIFY. The aim of moving an article to draft is to allow time and space for the draft's improvement until it is ready for mainspace. It is not intended as a backdoor route to deletion.
If you want to merge the article, you should start a discussion on the talk page per WP:MERGE, and the article history will need to remain undeleted for attribution purposes. power~enwiki (π, ν) 06:12, 28 November 2020 (UTC)
