== DYK requests ==

Dr Aaij, I'm not sure whether you're aware that there are 187 approved DYK nominations awaiting promotion, or another 160 awaiting or under review. In either event, I'm not currently building prep sets, and I'm not in the habit of arbitrarily soliciting reviewers for newish unreviewed nominations—unfortunately, given the current backlog, waiting for over two weeks to get a review is all too common, and three to four weeks is the average wait for an approved nomination to be promoted to the main page.

I can understand that this doesn't fit well with academic schedules, especially given that your course appears to end in 16 days. I don't really have the time to help you (my Wikipedia activity level is low this fall), so please don't ping me or post about me in nominations; the only affect it's likely to have is that people may think I might be taking action, so they'll be less likely to engage, not more. But then, if you're really [[User:Drmies|Drmies]], as your user page claims, you ought to know this already, so I'm at a loss as to why you made those two posts earlier today. As Drmies, you'd stand a far better chance if you posted to [[WT:DYK]] about the class, and how more prompt attention (rather like an impending special occasion in terms of timing) for reviews and promotions would help the educational experience. The flip side, of course, is that such DYK nominations that get reviewed a bit later end up dying on the vine because the course has ended and the student has stopped editing Wikipedia. [[User:BlueMoonset|BlueMoonset]] ([[User talk:BlueMoonset|talk]]) 19:10, 29 October 2018 (UTC)
*{{U|BlueMoonset}}, no, neither I nor Drmies were aware of these numbers, nor did we know a review took two weeks or more. I was just asking a question, that's all. I don't know why you thought Drmies would know all this already but don't worry, I won't ping you any more. [[User:Dr Aaij|Dr Aaij]] ([[User talk:Dr Aaij#top|talk]]) 21:01, 29 October 2018 (UTC)
::Dr Aaij, DYK nominations can be reviewed right away, or wait for over a month; two weeks is unfortunately far from unusual. I had thought Drmies had been paying attention when made DYK nominations or reviewed same, which is admittedly not terribly often, but apparently not.

== A page you started (Baseball in Germany) has been reviewed! ==

Thanks for creating [[Baseball in Germany]].

[[User:Cwmhiraeth|I]] have just reviewed the page, as a part of our [[WP:NPP|page curation process]].

An interesting and well-written article.

To reply, leave a comment here and [[Template:Reply to|ping]] [[User:Cwmhiraeth|me]].

<small>Message delivered via the [[Wikipedia:Page Curation/Help|Page Curation]] tool, on behalf of the reviewer.</small><!-- Template:Reviewednote-NPF -->

[[User:Cwmhiraeth|Cwmhiraeth]] ([[User talk:Cwmhiraeth|talk]]) 06:57, 7 November 2018 (UTC)
*[[User:Cwmhiraeth|Cwmhiraeth]], thank you so much for your help. [[User:Dr Aaij|Dr Aaij]] ([[User talk:Dr Aaij#top|talk]]) 15:13, 7 November 2018 (UTC)
*One more thing, {{U|Cwmhiraeth}}--I "created" the article, but it's really all [[User:Germanboi87]]'s work. Credit where credit is due! [[User:Dr Aaij|Dr Aaij]] ([[User talk:Dr Aaij#top|talk]]) 16:56, 7 November 2018 (UTC)

==Template message==

A user just edited my article, and he made some changes that I think really improved the article but he also inserted a template saying my article might need copy editing for tone and cohesion. Is that going to interfere with my DYK nomination at all? Thank you! [[User:Germanboi87|Germanboi87]] ([[User talk:Germanboi87|talk]]) 22:24, 7 November 2018 (UTC)
*Hey {{U|Germanboi87}}, I looked at [https://en.wikipedia.org/enwiki/w/index.php?title=Baseball_in_Germany&diff=867764537&oldid=867763169 the edit] and for the most part I agree. I mean, I don't see what's wrong with "GIs", but OK--but I had noticed the "hit it big" phrase before, and that's not really encyclopedic language. You need to get rid of "infamous" too, in this case. Now, looking at that passage again, I see more unclarities: "During the late nineteenth and early twentieth century, a lot of European countries received interest from major league players, one of which was the infamous [[John McGraw]].{{why}} Germany was not included though, partly because of inclement weather." Yes, what was McGraw looking for? What does "receiving interest" mean--did MLB players go over to Europe for... for what? And throughout those two centuries there was bad weather in Germany? So that really needs some work. Now, [[User:SounderBruce]] has 12 FAs, which is 11 more than me, I think, and 131 GAs, which is more than a hundred more than you and me put together, so let's assume they know what they're talking about. In other words, next step is to go through the article and try to work on it.<p>Will this thwart the DYK? Hmm I don't like promoting articles with a template on it, so yeah, it needs to be handled. But a half an hour's work might take care of it. Thanks, and good luck, [[User:Dr Aaij|Dr Aaij]] ([[User talk:Dr Aaij#top|talk]]) 02:32, 8 November 2018 (UTC)

==Just a reminder==

Hi Dr. Aaij,
Just a reminder that I have completed my trainings and have gotten on top of what I needed to do! See you class in a few hours! Cheers!

== Peer Review Response ==

Hello Dr. Aaij!
I have completed gathering the diffs of the changes I made to articles based on peer review. I am working on my current article and reliability now!

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Akira_Nakai <talk page to Akira Nakai
The reviews on my original talk page were very insightful on how to improve my article on Nakai.

Dr. Aaij(you), PeterYatesWV, and Jisbell2 all advised me to organize my article in a more legible format. I completed this by separating the text into sub-sections here
> https://en.wikipedia.org/enwiki/w/index.php?title=Akira_Nakai&diff=870727268&oldid=870497178

You and Shalor told me my tone was a bit too “admirable”, if you will, for the article’s tone. I tried to fix that but cannot find the exact diff where i changed it. I believe it was over time.
Akira Nakai article
> https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Akira_Nakai

My lead needed some work so I have since added just a bit to it but the effect of that little bit goes a distance.
> https://en.wikipedia.org/enwiki/w/index.php?title=Akira_Nakai&diff=870926744&oldid=870926458
> https://en.wikipedia.org/enwiki/w/index.php?title=Akira_Nakai&diff=870926458&oldid=870923715

Almost all reviews of my underdone article said something about my sources which I have now added more of.
> https://en.wikipedia.org/enwiki/w/index.php?title=Akira_Nakai&diff=870926458&oldid=870923715

I have also used all that I learned from these reviews by peers and applied it to my Toomer’s Corner article displayed here.(which I have also worked on a lot more. Shalor made some good points about it.

[[File:Information.svg|left|25px|alt=]]Hi, I'm RonBot, a script that checks new non-free file uploads. I have found that the subject image that you recently uploaded was more than 5% in excess of the Non-free content guideline size of 100,000 pixels. I have tagged the image for a standard reduction, which (for jpg/gif/png/svg files) normally happens within a day. Please check the reduced image, and make sure that the image is not excessively corrupted. Other files will be added to [[:Category:Wikipedia non-free file size reduction requests for manual processing]]. There is a full seven-day period before the original oversized image will be hidden; during that time you might want to consider editing the original image yourself (perhaps an initial crop to allow a smaller reduction or none at all). A formula for calculation the desired size can be found at [[WP:Image resolution]], along with instructions on how to tag the image in the rare cases that it requires an oversized image (typically about 0.2% of non-free uploads are tagged as necessarily oversized). Please contact the [[User talk:Ronhjones|bot owner]] if you have any questions, or you can ask them at [[Wikipedia talk:Non-free content]].

==Reflective Essay and others==
Hi Dr.Aaij. I just wanted to let you know I have finished up quite a few things on my wiki including adding to more articles, my DYK nomination, my vandalism diffs, copyediting more articles, and as of right now I am finishing up retyping my reflective essay. I apologize for the delay in this. I do believe I am having more issues with it though, as I think I just posted a bit of it without being logged in. I really apologize for all of this and thank you for your patience with me. [[User:Jisbell2|Jisbell2]] ([[User talk:Jisbell2|talk]]) 06:49, 11 December 2018 (UTC)
Here is the page to my Essay, thank you again and once again I am sorry. User:Jisbell2/essay [[User:Jisbell2|Jisbell2]] ([[User talk:Jisbell2|talk]]) 07:19, 11 December 2018 (UTC)
I also have completed the survey for extra points in the course. [[User:Jisbell2|Jisbell2]] ([[User talk:Jisbell2|talk]]) 07:53, 11 December 2018 (UTC)

== Resource request follow-up ==

If you're pleased with the service at Resource Request, please consider whether you can render a similar service to another requester. If, through your institution, you can freely borrow materials from [[Auburn University]], you may be able to answer the question at [[WP:RX#Proceedings of the International Association of Engineering Geology re the 1556 Shaanxi earthquake.|WP:RX#''Proceedings of the International Association of Engineering Geology'']] regarding several claims at [[1556 Shaanxi earthquake]]. No other volunteer has been able to access the source, so your assistance would be appreciated, even if you can't help until libraries reopen in the new year.

Volume 4 of the proceedings is cataloged [http://catalog.lib.auburn.edu/vufind/Record/730545 here]. Identifying the unknown article within the volume may be easy if there's an index or if there's a table of contents and the article is mainly about the 1556 Shaanxi earthquake (also known as the Huaxian earthquake or Jiajing earthquake) or a likely related topic, i.e. Chinese geology or earthquake engineering. Otherwise you might have to page through the volume looking for something that stands out, such as the casualty estimate of 820,000–830,000. Even if you only have 20-30 minutes to give to the problem, and can't go all the way through the volume, a result of "if it's in here, it isn't in the first 50 pages" would help the next searcher. --[[User:Worldbruce|Worldbruce]] ([[User talk:Worldbruce|talk]]) 18:26, 19 December 2018 (UTC)
*[[User:Worldbruce|Worldbruce]] I'd love to, but I am not on the Auburn main campus, and as of a couple of years ago we don't even have access to their library and databases anymore, I'm sad (and embarrassed) to say.

Hi Dr Aaij, thanks for the welcome on my newly created account. I wanted to take you up on your offer to chat (since I'm new and still navigating Wikipedia) and connect on proposed edits I made to the [[Neuronetics]] page. As disclosed, I have a COI with Neuronetics and suggested minor edits to the page based on publicly available information, such as number of employees, key executives, etc. to be compliant with Wiki policies though those changes have not been made. Any information you can share as to why would be most helpful, especially so I can keep in mind moving forward.

Would you like folks to jump in or hold off for now? <span style="font-family: Lucida Calligraphy">[[User:LadyofShalott|<span style="color: #442288">Lady</span>]]<span style="color: #22aaaa">of</span>[[User_Talk:LadyofShalott|<span style="color: #cc2288">Shalott</span>]]</span> 20:17, 27 June 2019 (UTC)
::Thanks for asking, [[User:LadyofShalott]]--I think for now I would like folks to hold off. More useful to the students would be a review, rather than a bunch of improvements. Minor fixes are great: the students are graded, in the end, on the writing. So for instance if an editor would fix some citation or template error, that's great. Rewriting a bunch of text, not so much--though you may have seen I couldn't stop myself earlier today. And I'd like for them to leave extensive edit summaries. You know, I should write an edit notice... Thanks for coming by, Lady: you have been such a good friend all those years.

Greetings Dr Aaij, I've made changes to my article [[Fire Songs]] and I was wondering what else I could add to it to make it better. More meaningful words equals a better article, thank you. [[User:Makaveli334|Makaveli334]] ([[User talk:Makaveli334|talk]]) 16:55, 30 June 2019 (UTC)
