Information icon Hello, and thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. This is just a note to let you know that I've moved the draft that you were working on to Draft:Isla Sorna, from its old location at User:Volubilis90/sandbox/Isla Sorna. This has been done because the Draft namespace is the preferred location for Articles for Creation submissions. Please feel free to continue to work on it there. If you have any questions about this, you are welcome to ask me on my talk page. Thank you. KGirlTrucker81 huh? what I've been doing 01:21, 2 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Your submission at Articles for creation: Isla Sorna (April 2)

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed! Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reason left by SwisterTwister was:
This submission's references do not adequately show the subject's notability. Wikipedia requires significant coverage about the subject in reliable sources that are independent of the subject—see the general guideline on notability and the golden rule. Please improve the submission's referencing (see Wikipedia:Referencing for beginners), so that the information is verifiable, and there is clear evidence of why the subject is notable and worthy of inclusion in an encyclopedia. If additional reliable sources cannot be found for the subject, then it may not be suitable for Wikipedia at this time.
 The comment the reviewer left was:
Not independently notable outside the fictional universe.
Please check the submission for any additional comments left by the reviewer. You are encouraged to edit the submission to address the issues raised and resubmit when they have been resolved.

Your submission at Articles for creation: Louis Seize (April 9)

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed! Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reason left by TheSandDoctor was:
The proposed article does not have sufficient content to require an article of its own, but it could be merged into the existing article at 18th-century French art. Since anyone can edit Wikipedia, you are welcome to add that information yourself. Thank you.
 The comment the reviewer left was:
This appears to have already been covered here 18th-century French art Louis period styles.
Please check the submission for any additional comments left by the reviewer. You are encouraged to edit the submission to address the issues raised and resubmit when they have been resolved.

IMDb and reliable sources

I noticed you expanded the production section of a few film articles. Thank you for doing that, but some of the sources that you're citing are not reliable. The IMDb in particular should not be cited on Wikipedia, as it is user-generated content. WP:FILM/R has an incomplete list of vetted sources that you may find helpful in researching film-related topics. Generally, content should be written by professional journalists or academics, and the source itself should have a professional editorial board. Blogs, fan sites, wikis, databases with user-submitted content, self-published books, etc are examples of sources we can't accept. WikiProject Film is a good place to ask for help if you get stuck, and the reliable sources noticeboard can help resolve questions of whether something is reliable.

What a way to spend Christmas!

Hi, Volubilis, I see that, like me, you're hard at work on WP. Seasonal greetings from my grey part of the country.

After all your hard work on the Messalina article in October, I did a bit more background reading myself. I thought you were justified in detailing more of what has been alleged against her, but going into so much detail seemed to upset the balance created between accusation and examination of the evidence. As you'll know from the Talk Page, the article was rewritten in 2013 after User:Cynwolfe (then one of WP's most prominent experts on Roman history) had remarked on the article's previous unreliability and failure to meet WP standards. Although I know it was not your intention, making all those citations from authors whose reliability needs to be questioned, and not coming to the dissentient voice until much later, undid the reason behind the 2013 rewrite. In order to address this problem, I have therefore foregrounded criticism of the original accounts and also slightly abbreviated the lurid stories that follow on the grounds that an encyclopedia is supposed only to summarise and send interested readers back to the sources for more detail. I wanted to explain my thinking to you here but would be happy if you wished to transfer the discussion to the article's talk page. Sweetpool50 (talk) 16:20, 25 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

RMS Queen Mary

Hello Volubilis90

I have noted that you have done quite some editing of the RMS Queen Mary page. My father-in-law was Capt. John Treasure Jones, the last Master of the ship and brought her to Long Beach. You can find his page on Wiki and his autobiography Tramp to Queen is listed on the RMS Queen Mary page as 'Further reading'.
In 2017, to commemorate the 50th anniversary of the voyage to Long Beach, I produced a book entitles RMS Queen Mary - The Final Voyage. When, in January 2018, I posted this on the page as 'Further reading' it was reverted as 'self promotion'.
In order to avoid this re-occurring, I would be very pleased if you could post the edit on my behalf:

  • RMS Queen Mary - The Final Voyage by Richard Tennant, Michael Gallagher & Miles Cowsill, Ferry Publications (2017) ISBN 978 1 911268 18 5

Many thanks Richard Tennant (talk) 14:58, 1 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
