Style

Hey! You're doing great work on Su Shi etc. Here are a few things I've noticed from your recent edits:

• Section headings (and article titles) on Wikipedia are written in sentence case (Early life and education, not in title case (Early Life and Education; even though it's called title case)
• Some of your edits about figures seem to include so-called "purple prose", which is mostly contrary to an encyclopedic tone.
• When you add Chinese-language text to an article, either characters or romanization, it's important to tag it as such, for accessibility and other reasons. You can learn how to do this on the section of our Manual of Style related to Chinese-language text and China-related articles.

Cheers! Remsense留 06:38, 5 January 2024 (UTC)

Appreciate the comments! I'll work on that in the next few weeks. TheIntrospectorsfacts (talk) 22:43, 26 January 2024 (UTC)

You're awesome! Happy editing. — Remsense诉 23:13, 26 January 2024 (UTC)

User:TheIntrospectorsfacts, I'm just going to add that you do have good editorial skills (based on a brief review of your contributions to "Chinese Mythology"). Also, just now looking at your Talk page -- in terms of creating articles relating to China (at least), I suggest just to create the article. Going through the Articles for Creation is unnecessary, and China related articles tend to be deprecated. I looked at your Dong Dong Yuhui draft: for a Start class article I do not see fault. Me, being completely clueless about Dong Yuhui (which is the point of having encyclopedic articles -- to be able to look stuff up), I did a quick search: yahoo!finance has an article Meet China's new live-streaming e-commerce star: an English-language tutor who lost his off-campus teaching job. An e-commerce star! Wikipedia is worse off without an article about:

"China's unlikely new live-streaming e-commerce star is 29-year-old Dong Yuhui, an erudite, former off-campus English-language tutor who now pitches a range of goods online, from books and cooking pans to steaks, shrimp and everyday groceries."

This is not my personal area of interest, but I would like to be able to look up information on Chinese e-commerce stars that invokes such "purple prose" praise from yahoo!finance -- in case myself or someone else becomes interested. As much as I am a fan of older, white, european-ancestry males and acknowledge the many encyclopedic notabilities, en.Wikipedia cannot be said to be without systemic bias.

Also, I suggest that you create your User page, so that you look more of a part of Wikipedia, at least enough so that your User name is not always in red.

Anyway, do as you wish. Cheers and happy editing!

And, if you do just post up the article, bypassing Articles for Creation, remember to blame

Thanks for the feedback. It's encouraging and informative to hear from peers. I threw in the Dong Yuhui page in as a test-water experiment. However, I disapproved my own submission after going through Wiki rules and after reading samples of featured articles. I shift back to edit existing articles on China which are abundant and will keep me occupied and engaged for the time being.:) TheIntrospectorsfacts (talk) 19:51, 5 February 2024 (UTC)

I have revamped the page Dong Yuhui by trimming down unnecessary details and removing peacock words. Would you please take a look and provide feedback on this version. TheIntrospectorsfacts (talk) 20:45, 1 March 2024 (UTC)

Your article Dong Yuhui moved to draftspace

I have converted your article to a draft which you can improve, undisturbed for a while.

Please see more information at Help:Unreviewed new page.

When the article is ready for publication, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page OR move the page back.Otuọcha (talk) 20:47, 1 March 2024 (UTC)

Wikipedia and copyright

Hello TheIntrospectorsfacts! Your additions to Yan Jidao have been removed in whole or in part, as they appear to have added copyrighted content without evidence that the source material is in the public domain or has been released by its owner or legal agent under a suitably free and compatible copyright license. (To request such a release, see Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission.) While we appreciate your contributions to Wikipedia, there are certain things you must keep in mind about using information from sources to avoid copyright and plagiarism issues.

• You can only copy/translate a small amount of a source. You must mark what you take as a direct quotation with double quotation marks (") and cite the source using an inline citation. Read about this at Wikipedia:Non-free content in the sections on "text". See also Help:Referencing for beginners, for how to cite sources here.
• Aside from limited quotation, you must put all information in your own words and structure, in proper paraphrase. Following the source's words too closely can create copyright problems, so it is not permitted here; see Wikipedia:Close paraphrasing. Even when using your own words, you are still asked to cite your sources to verify the information and to demonstrate that the content is not original research.
• We have strict guidelines on the usage of copyrighted images. Fair use images must meet all ten of the non-free content criteria to be used in articles, or they will be deleted. To be used on Wikipedia, all other images must be made available under a free and open copyright license that allows commercial and derivative reuse.
• If you own the copyright to the source you want to copy or are a legally designated agent, you may be able to license that text so that we can publish it here. Understand, though, that unlike many other sites, where a person can license their content for use there and retain non-free ownership, that is not possible at Wikipedia. Rather, the release of content must be irrevocable, to the world, into either the public domain (PD) or under a suitably free and compatible copyright license. Please see Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials.
• Also note that Wikipedia articles may not be copied or translated without attribution. If you want to copy or translate from another Wikipedia project or article, you must follow the copyright attribution steps described at Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia. See also Help:Translation#License requirements.

It's very important that contributors understand and follow these practices. Our policy requires that people who persistently do not must be blocked from editing. If you have any questions about this, please ask them here on this page, or leave a message on my talk page. Thank you. — Diannaa (talk) 21:50, 2 March 2024 (UTC)
