== RS or not? ==

Hi. I'm wondering if Miraheze and Reddit are reliable sources. I don't mean sourcing one thing said from the website like this:

"...is a weird company[2]"

Like this. It is acknowledged that it is just an opinion of the users on the site;
For example:

"...Users on Miraheze, particularly(wiki this)and(wiki that)have critized the company as weird.[2]

Thanks and bye. [[User:Spongebob796|Spongebob796]] ([[User talk:Spongebob796|talk]]) 08:21, 28 November 2024 (UTC)

I even made a topic on a question named RS or not?. You have not replied. Answer please.[[User:Spongebob796|Spongebob796]] ([[User talk:Spongebob796|talk]]) 13:21, 29 November 2024 (UTC)
:@[[User:Spongebob796|Spongebob796]]: Hello. You asked your question on [[Thanksgiving (United States)|a national holiday in the United States]], and I was spending time with my family. Practically every single editor on this site is a volunteer, and [[Wikipedia:There is no deadline|there is no deadline]], so patience is always appreciated. Regarding your original question, those are unreliable sources, and I wouldn't include statements like that. Your or I could personally visit a Miraheze wiki or Reddit ''right now'' and call a company weird—there's no reason for Wikipedia to use any information from such sources. [[User:Bsoyka|<span style="color:#fff;background:#055;padding:.2em">'''Bsoyka'''</span>]] (<i>[[User talk:Bsoyka|t]] &bull; [[Special:Contributions/Bsoyka|c]] &bull; [[User:Bsoyka/Guestbook|g]]</i>) 15:57, 29 November 2024 (UTC)

Sorry. I don't live in the US so I didn't know.
By the way thank you [[User:Spongebob796|Spongebob796]] ([[User talk:Spongebob796|talk]]) 08:40, 1 December 2024 (UTC)

Question

Hello, my friend! I know we are getting into Thanksgiving vacation time, so no hurry on this, but I'm wondering if you have access to a version of this book by Leena Ahtola-Moorhouse. I believe it is only available in Finnish or Swedish, which is fine, but I'm looking for the single page catalogue entry for Self-Portrait, which is known as either Omakuva or Självporträtt, respectively. I think it's unlikely you will have access to these works, but I thought I would ask in the rare event that you do. Thanks for everything. Viriditas (talk) 23:08, 22 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Viriditas: Hey! I've requested a copy through my library. I've said it before and I'll say it again: the folks in my interlibrary loan department are real-life magicians. I'm in a Big Ten Academic Alliance school, so their reach spreads pretty far. We'll see what they can do on this one! I'll be heading out of town for Thanksgiving to see family, so if it arrives after 11/27, it'll wait at my library until 12/2. I'll pin this section and let you know when they get back to me with some news. Bsoyka (t • c • g) 03:11, 23 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Viriditas: Just got an email saying this one has shipped to my library! Bsoyka (t • c • g) 20:53, 25 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Great news. I hope you have a fantastic Thanksgiving with friends and family! Viriditas (talk) 20:54, 25 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
You as well!! Bsoyka (t • c • g) 21:09, 25 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Question from N.T JOKER M (22:18, 1 December 2024)

It's possible to write storylines about your life --N.T JOKER M (talk) 22:18, 1 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@N.T JOKER M: Not here it's not. Please see our introduction to what Wikipedia is for. Bsoyka (t • c • g) 00:53, 2 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Question from Limejuice Olivet (08:21, 2 December 2024)

Hello I want to add a prominent person to Wikipedia Can you guild me --Limejuice Olivet (talk) 08:21, 2 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Limejuice Olivet: Hey there! I'm actually going to point you toward my essay on why you shouldn't start an article just yet. Correctly creating articles on Wikipedia takes a decent amount of experience, and you should try to build up your skills before trying this. I know this isn't quite the answer you wanted to hear, but I hope it's one that helps you grow as a contributor to this great project. Happy editing, and reach out with whatever other questions you may have! Bsoyka (t • c • g) 16:11, 2 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Question from FAcomms1 (16:54, 2 December 2024)

Hi - I just changed Laura Blinkilde Brown's place of birth from Sheffield to Worcester as Sheffield is incorrect - it was then changed back? Why is it being changed back when Worcester is correct --FAcomms1 (talk) 16:54, 2 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@FAcomms1: You didn't provide a reliable source for your changes. Bsoyka (t • c • g) 17:09, 2 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Question from Intotheweeds (02:26, 4 December 2024)

I want to create a page for a non profit organization --Intotheweeds (talk) 02:26, 4 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Intotheweeds: Hey there! I have a feeling what you mean is, "I want to create an article about my non-profit organization," and I'm going to advise you to steer clear of that idea. Having a Wikipedia article about your company isn't always a good thing, for a variety of reasons.
If I'm wrong and you're not connected with this organization, I will point you toward my essay on why you shouldn't start an article in general just yet. Correctly creating articles on Wikipedia takes a decent amount of experience, and you should try to build up your skills before trying this.
Regardless, I know this isn't quite the answer you wanted to hear, but I hope it's one that helps you grow as a contributor to this great project. Happy editing, and reach out with whatever other questions you may have! Bsoyka (t • c • g) 04:39, 4 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

How to nominate?

How do I nominate?I'm new here as I'm only here for 3 months and I'm in 4 WikiProjects;it for some reason looks like the article is magically reviewed. How do you do that? Spongebob796 (talk) 08:36, 4 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hi where are u? Spongebob796 (talk) 11:14, 5 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Spongebob796: Hey! Again, patience is appreciated. I'm a volunteer here, and in real life I'm a busy college student. I'm not sure what you mean by "nominate"—can you be more specific or provide an example? Bsoyka (t • c • g) 03:23, 6 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I mean...how does a person from a WikiProject like rate an article "Low-class" like that?

Question from MIRAJ HASA (15:38, 4 December 2024)

how are you --MIRAJ HASA (talk) 15:38, 4 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@MIRAJ HASA: I'm good, thanks. Is there something I can help you with regarding contributing to Wikipedia? Bsoyka (t • c • g) 03:23, 6 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Question from Ceytaire (00:14, 5 December 2024)

Bonjour, pour le moment , je ne me suis que peu occupé de la page ceytaire. c'est un collectionneur Mr Xavier Debeaurein qui principalement s'en est chargé , très bien d'ailleurs .je lui ai fourni recemment des informations concernant ma biographie .et la mise a jour de l'exposition faite à Mers les Bains (exposition que j'ai pu farire grace à lui) .je tiendrai à jour les evenements qui seront ajoutés à mon cv et mon activité , peut ^tre joindre des photos ... --Ceytaire (talk) 00:14, 5 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Ceytaire: Hey there. I'm not sure I understand your question, even with the help of Google Translate. Also, you may be interested in contributing to the French Wikipedia instead. (Bonjour. Je ne suis pas sûr de comprendre votre question, même avec l'aide de Google Traduction. De plus, vous pourriez être intéressé à contribuer à la Wikipédia en français à la place.) Bsoyka (t • c • g) 03:25, 6 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Question from InfoSeeker19 (01:55, 6 December 2024)

When I will be getting money from editing? --InfoSeeker19 (talk) 01:55, 6 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@InfoSeeker19: Hey there—put very simply, you won't. Wikipedians are volunteers. While we'd love your help, if making money from writing is your end goal, please find another platform. Bsoyka (t • c • g) 03:27, 6 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you for your feedback, and I sincerely apologize if my intentions came across differently than expected. I truly respect the efforts and dedication of Wikipedians as volunteers. My goal is to contribute meaningfully, and I understand the importance of upholding the platform's values. I appreciate the clarification and will adjust my approach moving forward. Thank you for your understanding! InfoSeeker19 (talk) 03:30, 6 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@InfoSeeker19: You're all good! I'm sorry if I came across a bit harsh; that's just one of those questions with a really clear answer that's hard to sugarcoat. Please know I'll be here if you have any other questions or concerns about contributing to Wikipedia—happy editing! Bsoyka (t • c • g) 03:48, 6 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Question from Ceytaire (07:27, 6 December 2024)

Bonjour, i speack english , but not enough to understand details so ... pourais je avoir votre message en Français ? --Ceytaire (talk) 07:27, 6 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Another case-fixing bot task

I've started a discussion at Wikipedia:Bot requests#Province over-capitalization that you could probably handle easily. I'm open to where else to provoke more discussion if someone thinks it's needed. Dicklyon (talk) 04:05, 7 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
