Topic proposal

Please propose a topic or two that you wish to write on Wikipedia. You should read all related articles/policies on Wikipedia and provide the following information.

1. Your proposed article(s) (New or existing STUB article relating to a chemical compound, reaction, equipment or technique - or related to your major/interest. (see Category:Stub-Class Chemistry articles))
   • For new article, explain briefly why it passes WP:NOTE.
   • For existing topics, explain briefly the state/structure of the current article.
     • Is the structure & existing content appropriate?
       • If not, restructure or remove content as per WP:MOS and WP:NOT before you move to the next stage.
2. Brief outline of your contributions to the article
   • In what section & what content
     • Make sure it belongs to the article and it is encyclopedic. See WP:NOT for things that should NOT be added.
     • Make sure that it is not redundant to existing articles. Use Google search "site:wikipedia.org" rather than Wikipedia search.
   • References for the article
   • Media files (photo/VDO/drawing) to be used in the article.
     • You may suggest plan to create your own work and upload to Wikimedia Commons
     • You may use existing media on Wikimedia Commons. Use Google image search "site:wikimedia.org" rather than Wikimedia Commons search.
3. Examples/template/related articles that you will use as a model to develop your nominated article.
   • In terms of WP:MOS/formatting - your article will have similar style/format/tone to these articles.

Your topic, Decantation is approved. --Taweetham (talk) 07:05, 29 January 2018 (UTC)

First draft

Your topic is approved and added to the course page. Please develop the proposal into the first draft in your sandbox.

• For existing article, you may copy some parts of the existing article to your sandbox to see how revision/integration of content would work. You will copy the code back to the article at later stage.
• For new article, you may want to copy parts of a template article to your sandbox to see what sections are necessary. The sandbox will be moved to the article namespace at later stage. Please do not click "Submit your draft for review!". The function is not applicable to our course.

In all cases, do not copy more than what is necessary. For example, do not copy any categories to your sandbox. --Taweetham (talk) 06:11, 29 January 2018 (UTC)

You will need to use reliable references to support your writing. --Taweetham (talk) 01:14, 3 February 2018 (UTC)

First edit on the article namespace

Your work has been reviewed. Majority of the content/formatting is ok. Please carefully move encyclopedic part of your sandbox to article namespace so that the general public can see it. Here are some tips to help you complete the transition to online editing.

1. Content/Formatting policies
   • For the purpose of this assignment, do NOT copy anything from anywhere to Wikipedia and it sister projects. You must create all of the content primarily by yourself with assistance/supervision of the instructor & the team. The content, however, must be encyclopedic & relevant and supported by reliable references.
   • The content must be in the right format and added to the right place of the article.
   • You can learn writing and formatting style from similar (but better class) articles on Wikipedia. You can find them from links/categories of your article. Learning from good examples is perhaps the best short-cut to your success.
2. Technicalities
   • Unlike sandbox, all edits will be public immediately and it is important to make sure that all of your edits are acceptable. You may use preview button and provide edit summary to help you.
   • Any "page save" on Wikipedia even outside article namespace is permanently recorded and can be retrieved by the public. Please think carefully before you click save and before you revert other people edits. No work is lost but only the latest version of the page is shown to the public. Deletion of pages (or versions of pages) is only possible by admins if it falls under Wikipedia:Deletion policy. You can request admins to do deletion or other prescribed tasks should the need arises.
   • You may want to set watchlist and notifications so that you can catch up with changes made to your article and your talk page by other editors.
3. Community interactions
   • You will be interacting with other volunteers when you make edits on the article namespace. Please respect other users in the community and assume good faith.
   • If your work is reverted or modified in any other ways, do not engage in a edit war. Rather use discussion page of your article to settle issues.
   • You may be blocked from Wikipedia for failure to observe community rules.

We hope you enjoy seeing product of your hard work read by many people in the years to come. --Taweetham (talk) 00:21, 3 February 2018 (UTC)

Decantation

Hi! Thank you for your contribution to Decantation article. Please try to find more citation for your article. Also, recheck the spelling in the article. --Parisa Prasertlum (talk) 12.49, 11 February 2018 (UTC)

Thanks for your contribution to the article.

1. Please pay attention to suggestion from other Wikipedians. For example, on the history page you will see "again no this is off-topic, especially for the WP:LEDE. Undid revision 825909499 by U6080140 (talk)" written by DMacks on 06:05, 16 February 2018‎‎. Use talk pages/Discussion pages to discuss issues/resolve conflicts arising from editing the article.
2. Please provide edit summary every time you save a page.
3. Please carefully read WP:NOT and make sure that your article has an encyclopedia tone.
4. References should be added to support your text and should be properly formatted by the templates, {{cite web}} or {{cite journal}}.

Please have a look at similar articles on Wikipedia e.g. Acid-base extraction, Gel electrophoresis and Distillation and learn from these examples. --Taweetham (talk) 02:27, 18 February 2018 (UTC)

It is important to learn from

• Wikipedia policy pages
• Examples Wikipedia articles
• Other online and offline people

Wikipedia is not a place to submit homework or classwork. We are here to write encyclopedia for a other people to read. Having readers in your mind can help resolve conflict and dissatisfaction. Please see WP:AGF and you can write better. --Taweetham (talk) 00:58, 26 February 2018 (UTC)

February 2018

Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. You appear to be repeatedly reverting or undoing other editors' contributions at Decantation. Although this may seem necessary to protect your preferred version of a page, on Wikipedia this is known as "edit warring" and is usually seen as obstructing the normal editing process, as it often creates animosity between editors. Instead of reverting, please discuss the situation with the editor(s) involved and try to reach a consensus on the talk page.

If editors continue to revert to their preferred version they are likely to be blocked from editing Wikipedia. This isn't done to punish an editor, but to prevent the disruption caused by edit warring. In particular, editors should be aware of the three-revert rule, which says that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Edit warring on Wikipedia is not acceptable in any amount, and violating the three-revert rule is very likely to lead to a block.

I see you have already been warned about adding uncited content and the importance of not edit warring. So don't do those things. DMacks (talk) 17:16, 15 February 2018 (UTC)

Please stop your disruptive editing.

• If you are engaged in an article content dispute with another editor, discuss the matter with the editor at their talk page, or the article's talk page, and seek consensus with them. Alternatively you can read Wikipedia's dispute resolution page, and ask for independent help at one of the relevant notice boards.
• If you are engaged in any other form of dispute that is not covered on the dispute resolution page, seek assistance at Wikipedia's Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents.

If you continue to disrupt Wikipedia, as you did at Decantation, you may be blocked from editing. You will not succeed in your course if you are denied the privilege to edit here altogether. DMacks (talk) 13:39, 24 February 2018 (UTC)
