If you'd like some help with editing or otherwise, you can sign up at the new users log, post a question at the Help Desk, or ask me on my talk page.

As you have already noticed, you should always sign your name on Talk pages using four tildes (~~~~); this will automatically insert your username and the date. It is a good idea to read the most recent entries at the bottom of the Talk page of an existing article before making major changes to it, to see if your proposed change has been discussed before. Before I make a major change to an article, I often make a proposal on the Talk page to see if anyone minds.

Again, welcome! -- Ssilvers (talk) 19:37, 29 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Unless you have a source that states that Fritzl was inspired by Sally, we can't say so. See WP:OR for more information. Note that the table is missing No, No, Nanette. Also, would you please re-order the table so that the oldest productions go first? Also, why not include his London stage credits too? Thanks. -- 17:34, 28 September 2023 (UTC)

These are good points. I just put the productions in that order. I explain in the article that "No, No, Nanette" was a show that he had left when it was a pre-Broadway production. I just added London stage credits to a new table and "No, No, Nanette" to the original table.
The article is coming along well; good job. I bet you can find out more of his early London credits. The George Edwardes shows were very successful, so it would be worthwhile to list more of them in the table. I recommend that, if you look at reviews of them, you try to figure out whether he was really directing them. Often, in those days, director was actually referred to as "stage manager", because he told people where to stand on the stage. Some theatrical history: Prior to the 1860s, there was no such thing as a "director". Shows were usually staged minimally either by the star of the show or by the theatre manager, and actors were pretty much left to their own devices and often mostly devised their own minimalist staging. Plus, the use of the stage was minimal. There were very few rehearsals! If, for example, the play called for a family dinner, a stagehand would bring a table onstage with the number of chairs needed, and everyone would sit down. When the table was no longer needed, the stagehand came back and took it off stage. This was changed by some innovators in the 1860s and 1870s, including T. W. Robertson, who directed the plays that he wrote and expected the actors to rehearse and obey his direction. Early on, the non-playwright directors were called "stage managers". Eventually, they were sometimes called directors (choreography was "musical staging"), although in Britain, directors were sometimes called producers, which is confusing, up until recent decades! -- Ssilvers (talk) 19:21, 29 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]
I found the theatre for his British stage credits. Starlighsky (talk) 03:42, 2 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]
I found some of his earlier London credits. Btw, we are not allowed to delete discussions from articles' Talk pages (although we can archive them), except in certain limited circumstances. You can delete whatever you want from your own Talk page, but it fools people into thinking that you are a newbie if they don't see older messages here. -- Ssilvers (talk) 05:26, 2 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]
I will try to undo it. It was just that the problem was solved. Now I know, thanks. Starlighsky (talk) 11:30, 2 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Your submission at Articles for creation: Yvonne Man (December 1)

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed. Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reason left by WikiOriginal-9 was:
This submission's references do not show that the subject qualifies for a Wikipedia article—that is, they do not show significant coverage (not just passing mentions) about the subject in published, reliable, secondary sources that are independent of the subject (see the guidelines on the notability of people). Before any resubmission, additional references meeting these criteria should be added (see technical help and learn about mistakes to avoid when addressing this issue). If no additional references exist, the subject is not suitable for Wikipedia.
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 after they have been resolved.

You first reference does not include the authors, year, page number etc; the second has no information that can be tracked --similar for the others.

Proposed deletion of Ubiquitous (adverb or adjective)

Hello, Starlighsky

Welcome to Wikipedia! I edit here too, under the username Justiyaya, and I thank you for your contributions.

I wanted to let you know, however, that I've proposed an article that you started, Ubiquitous (adverb or adjective), for deletion because it meets one or more of our deletion criteria, and I don't think that it is suitable for inclusion in the encyclopedia. The particular issue can be found in the notice that is now visible at the top of the article.

If you wish to contest the deletion:

  1. Edit the page
  2. Remove the text that looks like this: {{proposed deletion/dated...}}
  3. Click the Publish changes button.

If you object to the article's deletion, please remember to explain why you think the article should be kept on the article's talk page and improve the page to address the issues raised in the deletion notice. Otherwise, it may be deleted later by other means.

If you have any questions, please leave a comment here and prepend it with {{Re|Justiyaya}}. And remember to sign your reply with ~~~~. Thanks!

(Message delivered via the Page Curation tool, on behalf of the reviewer.)

Sorry Starlighsky, Wikipedia:Wikipedia is not a dictionary should provide explanation to my reasoning behind the nomination. Wiktionary is the place to go for editing dictionary definitions, not here. If you think I've made a mistake, feel free to remove the tag or ping me to ask questions. Justiyaya 09:06, 24 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Justiyaya::This article is needed, the present link Ubiquitous links to Omnipresent, which does not explain the word found in many Wikipedia articles. However, that link to omnipresent needs to link to the correct description of ubiquitous.

Once that happens, adjective and adverb can removed from the title. The system won't allow two ubiquitous articles. Ubiquitous needs to link to here Starlighsky (talk) 13:47, 24 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Nomination of Ubiquitous (adjective) for deletion

A discussion is taking place as to whether the article Ubiquitous (adjective) is suitable for inclusion in Wikipedia according to Wikipedia's policies and guidelines or whether it should be deleted.

The article will be discussed at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Ubiquitous (adjective) until a consensus is reached, and anyone, including you, is welcome to contribute to the discussion.

Medical statistics

Hello - On my talk page, you said: I understand your line of reasoning, but the chart for probability distribution of CI is a standalone. You deleted everything I had written about CI. I am not sure how this can be repaired.

The chart for CI is an example of a statistic, so can stand alone. I don't understand your reasoning to emphasize CI among all the possible statistics, as it is not a rigorous determinant of significance, but rather an indicator of possible range. You also had entitled the section Use in medical literature, a broad section heading, but the content only addressed CI rather than more common and rigorous measures. For style of section subheads, see MOS:SECTIONS (not all caps).

Regarding "repair", this article is basically a WP:STUB and probably should be WP:MERGEd with Biostatistics. Perhaps you could consider working on a merger. As the banner says, the lists should be converted into prose. Also, all content is kept in article history, so everything is recoverable.

You might benefit from this link for formatting references. Check the ref tag, full journal title, and URL boxes. Zefr (talk) 00:52, 16 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The general reader is not going to understand what CI with a chart and no explanation. I was trying to go from lists to prose. My reasoning what is used often in biomedical literature with a reference to how it used often in such literature. I can use your suggestions to introduce CI and related topics often found in the medical literature.
I will try to work on the merger as well.
All in all, it's no big deal...I just didn't know how to explain the chart with the deletion. Starlighsky (talk) 01:32, 16 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy deletion nomination of Trapping mechanisms for carbon geosequestration

Hello Starlighsky,

Welcome to Wikipedia! I edit here too, under the username Melmann, and I thank you for your contributions.

I wanted to let you know, however, that I have tagged an article that you started, Trapping mechanisms for carbon geosequestration, for deletion, because there's already a page about that topic at Carbon sequestration. Please don't be discouraged; we appreciate your effort in creating new articles. To avoid this in the future, consider using the search function to find pages that already cover what you want to write about.

If you feel that the article shouldn't be deleted and want more time to work on it, you can contest this deletion but please don't remove the speedy deletion tag from the top. If the page is already deleted by the time you come across this message and you wish to retrieve the deleted material, please contact the deleting administrator.

For any further query, please leave a comment here and prepend it with {{Re|Melmann}}. And, don't forget to sign your reply with ~~~~ . Thanks!

Melmann 06:24, 16 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Melmann: I wrote in the Talk page the explanation of the article actually providing the needed links for Carbon sequestration. A lot of people don't realize that we can store carbon dioxide in underground storage as one of several ways to prevent global warming, but there is a risk of the CO2 leaking. The article about trapping mechanisms explains the published research on ways to prevent this serious type of leak. The article may be helpful information for many readers. Starlighsky (talk) 11:31, 16 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
To me, this is something that could have just been added to Carbon sequestration. But, as the speedy deletion was already reverted by an uninvolved editor, I'll leave it at that. Melmann 07:24, 17 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I understand your line of reasoning, but it would have made the carbon sequestration possibly too long and challenging to read in terms of the basic ideas. Carbon capture and storage also applies this topic. Fortunately, this artice provides content for the links from both articles on leak prevention. Starlighsky (talk) 12:59, 17 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hyaluronic acid edit

On my talk page, you said: The reference cited was published in the National Library of Medicine. I can more published, reliable references, but I want to ensure that the COVID relation is okay to publish with more references.

First, this is not a publication of the National Library of Medicine (NLM). It is listed on PubMed, which is a search, retrieval and abstract display service of NLM, described further in this FAQ. The publisher of the article you cited is Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology.

Second, as the Methods section in the article explains, the study was only of 217 people with Covid-19. It is a preliminary ("primary") research study, not a WP:MEDRS review which would justify use of a reference as a source.

There is not enough evidence yet to establish that hyaluronic acid is a reliable biomarker for Covid-19. Zefr (talk) 18:56, 23 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

COVID-19 basic research

On my talk page, you said: The research was the results of data analysis. I want to ask for the deletion to be reconsidered because it was based on medical data processed by a U.S. national laboratory.

The removed content was Along with cytokine storm, there is a medical theory of bradykinin storm as well. By means of genetic data mining techniques with the supercomputers at Oak Ridge National Laboratory, the lung-fluid samples from COVID-19 patients had a pattern of the overexpression of genes that produce bradykinin, while having a pattern of the underexpressing genes that would inhibit or break down bradykinin. The implication is a hyperabundance of bradykinin in a COVID-19 at the points of infection.

With WP:MEDRS as the background guideline for choosing content and sources, it's puzzling why you think this conjecture is important to mention for the encyclopedia: a) it's an unproven theory, WP:ENCYCLOPEDIC, b) it was produced by computer analysis, not by fully-developed clinical research, c) it's news, WP:NOTNEWS, not a MEDRS review of accepted clinical facts, and d) it's from an engineering institute, not an expert clinical organization; see WP:MEDORG.

You would do well to read the MEDRS guideline carefully, as you seem to have a misunderstanding for choosing good medical sources. Zefr (talk) 23:28, 29 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I rephrased the items from a newspaper article and presented the list of facts for the humanitarian assistance after the natural disaster.

Reliable sources

I reverted your recent edit to Enrica Soma because it cited a site on Wordpress, which is not a reliable source because it only hosts self-published blogs. You can check whether a commonly used source is considered reliable at Wikipedia:Reliable sources/Perennial sources. Helpful Raccoon (talk) 20:10, 29 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Okay. It was just very challenging reference to find for a requested citation for that family of articles.
I will look for a better source. Starlighsky (talk) 23:31, 29 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
The blog post directly links to the original magazine which should work as a source, albeit a primary source that does not verify whether the photo was "later famous" (this phrase might need to be removed). Helpful Raccoon (talk) 23:59, 29 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I will look into it. I even went to Life Magazine's website but still had trouble finding it.  Starlighsky (talk) 00:07, 30 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Your submission at Articles for creation: Iris Flores (actress) (September 3)

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed. Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reasons left by SafariScribe were:
This submission is not adequately supported by reliable sources. Reliable sources are required so that information can be verified. If you need help with referencing, please see Referencing for beginners and Citing sources.
This submission's references do not show that the subject qualifies for a Wikipedia article—that is, they do not show significant coverage (not just passing mentions) about the subject in published, reliable, secondary sources that are independent of the subject (see the guidelines on the notability of people). Before any resubmission, additional references meeting these criteria should be added (see technical help and learn about mistakes to avoid when addressing this issue). If no additional references exist, the subject is not suitable for Wikipedia.
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 after they have been resolved.

Speedy deletion nomination of William Lawrence Hansen (Bill Hansen)

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.

You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on William Lawrence Hansen (Bill Hansen) requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G4 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page appears to be a repost of material that was previously deleted following a deletion discussion, at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Dale Wood (William Lawrence Hansen). When a page has substantially identical content to that of a page deleted after a discussion, and any changes in the content do not address the reasons for which the material was previously deleted, it may be deleted at any time.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator, or if you have already done so, you can place a request here. Wikishovel (talk) 19:26, 16 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I beg to differ on this deletion. I did exactly what was asked of me to improve the article, as I understood it.
The song "Dreaming of My Indiana Sweetheart" was a hit song almost a century ago, give both composers, Hansen and a famous actress from that time, notability for that song. How can I contest this deletion? Starlighsky (talk) 23:38, 16 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

It is a list from a government document, which is in public domain.
It is a list and had been partially rewritten to avoid any misunderstanding. Starlighsky (talk) 21:35, 29 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
The place where I found it is https://www.nadb.org/about/programs, and their terms and conditions indicate that the material is not available for commercial purposes, which is something that is allowed under the terms of our license. So no, you can't copy it here. Diannaa (talk) 22:04, 29 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I went to the site. It is public domain in terms sites like Wikipedia:
NADBank maintains this Website for information purposes only. Users may download, copy and reprint information from the Website for non-commercial purposes, subject to any terms and conditions contained within materials expressly attributed to third parties, so long as NADBank is cited as the source of the originating material. Starlighsky (talk) 23:46, 29 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Wikipedia is not public domain; it is released under a Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike 4.0 License, which allows commercial use. Since the NADBank does not allow commercial use of their content, it's not compatibly licensed; you can't add it here. -- Diannaa (talk) 05:09, 30 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
However, Wikipedia articles are not commercial use. This is an interesting issue. Starlighsky (talk) 12:28, 30 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Our license allows the content of our website to be copied for any purpose, including commmercial use. This is the clause of the license that makes us unable to copy from websites such as https://www.nadb.org/about/programs that don't allow commerical use of their material. Diannaa (talk) 13:36, 30 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I think this was misread. It is saying we can't post 3rd party information that may be on their site without permission and so on. However, we are allowed to post their information:
NADBank maintains this Website for information purposes only. Users may download, copy and reprint information from the Website for non-commercial purposes, subject to any terms and conditions contained within materials expressly attributed to third parties, so long as NADBank is cited as the source of the originating material. Users may not reprint or distribute material for which a third party is identified as the copyright holder, unless permission to do so is expressly permitted for such third-party material. Starlighsky (talk) 19:03, 30 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Sorry but I don't think I am misinterpreting. They specify that material on their website cannot be reproduced for non-commercial purposes. They are smart people, and if they wished to release the material under a compatible license or to the public domain they could easily do so; instead they say not to use it for non-commercial purposes. If you wish to get a second opinion. please consider asking one of the people on this list. Diannaa (talk) 20:33, 30 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I see you are one of the copyright people on the list.
I will just give up on what I wrote. There is another version of the article in Spanish. I can translate that in place the appropriate citations. However, I have to give up on what I wrote. It didn't really matter anyway. Starlighsky (talk) 22:52, 30 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Your submission at Articles for creation: Grace Shipping Company (December 3)

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed. Unfortunately, it has not been accepted because it included copyrighted content, which is not permitted on Wikipedia.
This submission appears to be taken from https://web.archive.org/web/20120217042842/http://www.theshipslist.com/ships/lines/grace.htm. Wikipedia cannot accept material copied from elsewhere, unless it explicitly and verifiably has been released to the world under a suitably free and compatible copyright license or into the public domain and is written in an acceptable tone—this includes material that you own the copyright to. You should attribute the content of a draft to outside sources, using citations, but copying and pasting or closely paraphrasing sources is not acceptable. The entire draft should be written using your own words and structure.
You are welcome to write an article on the subject, but please do not use copyrighted work. TheTechie@enwiki (she/they | talk) 04:26, 3 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
