Hello, Gaw54! I'm Wikiisawesome. I have replied to your question about a submission at the WikiProject Articles for Creation Help Desk. /wia /talk 01:58, 13 May 2015 (UTC)

Thanks, Wikiawesome. That's awesome!Gaw54 (talk) 02:24, 13 May 2015 (UTC)

A belated welcome!

Sorry for the belated welcome, but the cookies are still warm!

Here's wishing you a belated welcome to Wikipedia, Gaw54. I see that you've already been around a while and wanted to thank you for your contributions. Though you seem to have been successful in finding your way around, you may benefit from following some of the links below, which help editors get the most out of Wikipedia:

• Introduction
• The five pillars of Wikipedia
• Contributing to Wikipedia
• How to edit a page
• Help pages
• How to write a great article
• Editor's index to Wikipedia

Also, when you post on talk pages you should sign your name using four tildes (~~~~); that should automatically produce your username and the date after your post.

I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! If you have any questions, feel free to leave me a message on my talk page, consult Wikipedia:Questions, or place {{helpme}} on your talk page and ask your question there.

Again, welcome! JAaron95 | Talk | Contribs 02:12, 13 May 2015 (UTC)

Thanks [[User:Jaaron95| for the cookies and warm welcome to Wikipedia. I'm looking forward to spending more time creating and editing articles and I appreciate the additional tips. I'm also going to continue to improve my first page with additional citations and the addition of an information box (I'm working on that now)Gaw54 (talk) 02:20, 13 May 2015 (UTC)

Help requested with uploading image to info box

I am having trouble uploading an image to the info box of Wiki page: https://en.wiki.x.io/wiki/Brian_Dailey

I've spent the better part of the last three hours going around in circles as to how to upload a file provided by the artist to use as an image. This is this most convoluted process imaginable. I managed to upload the image to Wiki Commons (I think):

https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Brian_Dailey,_Detail_from_14_Stations,_2011.jpg

Can anyone provide me with assistance on how to get the image into the info box?

Thank you,

Gaw54Gaw54 (talk) 03:59, 21 September 2015 (UTC)

Hello Gaw 54, I've added the image for you. Regards—☮JAaron95 ^Talk 04:02, 21 September 2015 (UTC)

Amazing, thank you! I should have tried this route before wasting the better part of an evening on it. Would it be possible to add the caption: Brian Dailey, "14 Stations" (detail), 2011. Gaw54 (talk) 04:10, 21 September 2015 (UTC)

@Gaw54: I've done that. But, in commons your image is up for deletion. Please go to the heading 'Licensing' and read the details and release the rights of the image for free use if indeed the image is yours. Hope that helps. Regards—☮JAaron95 ^Talk 04:46, 21 September 2015 (UTC)

Hi,
You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.

Submission review process inquiry

Gaw54 (talk) 16:53, 22 January 2016 (UTC) I just posted this question on the talk page for my recently submitted article, but it is unclear to me how/if that is monitored, so I am repeating it here. This is only my second article, and I'm still learning my way around this process. Why does this page https://en.wiki.x.io/wiki/Draft:Dadaglobe keep getting kicked back to the "submitted one day ago" when the submission dates are listed as 18 and 19 January? I have continued to make minor edits, but I didn't think that this would change the submission date. Since an aspect of this entry is very timely (related exhibition to open shortly), I am anxious to get it reviewed and make any necessary edits. Any guidance on this matter would be very much appreciated. Gaw54 (talk) 16:49, 22 January 2016 (UTC

Dadaglobe

Thanks for alerting me to your article. I'm not really an expert on Dada and your article on the intended anthology was interesting news to me. However, I approach what you have written purely as a fellow editor with a rather longer WP history and would make the following suggestions.

1. Shorter paras; the article looks too congested.
2. More references, paticularly the source of your statement "Some of Dada's most iconic artworks....foremost in mind".
3. The Breton quote needs cutting down to its final sentence; the rest repeats what you've just been saying. And since you have a link for Breton, you don't really need to say that he went on to found Surrealism. That is beside the point in this context.
4. Translate the German quoted under the Baargeld illustration. Google Translate will give you something very rudimentary but it's a start!

Good luck with your future editing. Mzilikazi1939 (talk) 21:07, 23 January 2016 (UTC)

Thanks, Mzilikazi! I'm in the process of incorporating your suggestions. I hope that these will facilitate getting the article approved quickly. The related exhibition is opening shortly. Can you help me figure out how do I link to an image on Wiki Art, http://www.wikiart.org/en/max-ernst/the-chinese-nightingale-1920

License tagging for File:Self-Portrait (5 of 5).jpg

Thanks for uploading File:Self-Portrait (5 of 5).jpg. You don't seem to have indicated the license status of the image. Wikipedia uses a set of image copyright tags to indicate this information.

To add a tag to the image, select the appropriate tag from this list, click on this link, then click "Edit this page" and add the tag to the image's description. If there doesn't seem to be a suitable tag, the image is probably not appropriate for use on Wikipedia. For help in choosing the correct tag, or for any other questions, leave a message on Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. Thank you for your cooperation. --ImageTaggingBot (talk) 17:05, 10 February 2016 (UTC)

Help me!

Please help me with... Please help me with https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/User:Gaw54. I accidentally drafted the page on wikimedia rather than wikipedia. How can I most efficiently transfer the draft to finish it in the right format? Gaw54 (talk) 23:38, 15 April 2024 (UTC)

There really isn't a way, you'll have to copy the content from there to here. Also, you have a sandbox for drafts, please put it there, otherwise people will think you have a close connection with the subject. Best, thetechie@wikimedia: ~/talk/ $ 00:03, 16 April 2024 (UTC)

Thanks for replying. But this just made me more confused. The sandbox reverts to my user name, which is not what I'm trying to create. I feel like I've just wasted days of work and have no idea how to move forward. Why can't I just copy and paste the text from the Wikimedia page to a Wikipedia format. Color me very confused and frustrated. Gaw54 (talk) 03:27, 16 April 2024 (UTC)

Because our copyright licence (and Commons', as they're one and the same) would require you to backlink to the original. This is a mandatory requirement of the licence and isn't negotiable; copy-paste moves get deleted all the time as copyright violations. —Jéské Couriano v^_^v ^{Source assessment notes} 04:10, 16 April 2024 (UTC)

@Jéské Couriano: What you're saying doesn't make sense. The user created the page on Wikimedia Commons, they own the copyright even if they licence it under CC. They can copy it wherever they want and they don't have to attribute it. Attribution is only necessary if you didn't fully make the work. If you want to be pedantic and copy all the page history, we can take a trip to Wikipedia:Requests for page importation, though IMO that would be extremely unnecessary.

Gaw54, if you're reading this, just click the "edit source" button at https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/User:Gaw54, then copy everything, then paste it into User:Gaw54/sandbox —Matrix(!) {user - talk? - _uselesscontributions} 16:07, 16 April 2024 (UTC)

Thanks to everyone who has attempted to assist my in this process. I really appreciate efforts to uncomplicate what should have been a very straight forward issue (i.e. moving my original copy from one platform to another) without all the unnecessary bureaucracy of backlinking. I have created a new page for the artist Bonnie Rychlak at https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/User:Gaw54. Editing suggestions and assistance in getting it published would be much appreciated. In the spirit of raising the profile of women artists (who have been woefully underrepresented on Wikipedia as in the art whole as a whole), I hope that I will get encouragement, rather than being discouraged from working further on this. Gaw54 (talk) 16:38, 16 April 2024 (UTC)

As I mentioned to you on IRC, your sources need to improve. As such, I will assess them here and now. Refer to User:Jéské Couriano/Decode:

• https://www.artnews.com/art-in-america/features/brian-gayman-1948-2014-59819/ is useless for notability (wrong subject). This is an obituary for her partner, and says barely anything about her.
• Reference 2 is missing required bibliographical information (page numbers, article title). The way it is written is also somewhat confusing to boot (Is it from the May 1989 or February 1989 edition of the publication?)
• Reference 4 is missing required bibliographical information (page numbers).
• Reference 6's link is broken due to the parentheses in it. (Putting spaces between the brackets and the URL will fix this.)
• Reference 7 is missing required bibliographical information (page numbers).
• Reference 8's link is broken due to malformatting (You added an additional "https://" to it.)
• Am I correct in assuming everything beyond Reference 9 is a museum collection?

With a couple exceptions, the first half of your references are not good, mostly due to malformatting or missing required information. Check your URLs, both on your sources and in your address bar. —Jéské Couriano v^_^v ^{Source assessment notes} 16:52, 16 April 2024 (UTC)

Thank you for your input. Where do I find the edit source button? Gaw54 (talk) 16:49, 16 April 2024 (UTC)

P.S. After reposting the page, I realized that I had just reposted it to Wikimedia. I am just going in circles! Gaw54 (talk) 16:51, 16 April 2024 (UTC)

I've cut the knot and done it for you: User:Gaw54/sandbox. I included a backlink to the Commons userpage per policy. —Jéské Couriano v^_^v ^{Source assessment notes} 16:55, 16 April 2024 (UTC)

Thank you! Your assistance is much appreciated in both moving the page and for the feedback on sources. I will work on improving them per your suggestions. Gaw54 (talk) 16:57, 16 April 2024 (UTC)

Note that I skipped over References 3 and 9 above. While I can't technically assess those (copy required) as a rule we give the benefit of the doubt to offline sources unless we have evidence suggesting otherwise, so assume those sources are OK. —Jéské Couriano v^_^v ^{Source assessment notes} 17:08, 16 April 2024 (UTC)

OK. I've spent the last hour trying to make the formatting corrections to footnotes 6 and 8 with no luck. I tried following your instructions to no avail. Since it appears that you know how to make those adjustments, your assistance would be appreciated.

I'm working on tracking down the missing bibliographic information you identified.

Regarding footnotes 9-15, these are all published exhibition catalogues that are available for purchase on Amazon or elsewhere online.

Footnote 16 references a local newspaper that does not maintain online archives: https://www.easthamptonstar.com/ Gaw54 (talk) 21:31, 16 April 2024 (UTC)

I believe I have addressed all of the issues you previously identified regarding the references. I'm still having a little trouble correctly formatting a couple of the footnotes. Your advice would be greatly appreciated. Gaw54 (talk) 15:35, 30 May 2024 (UTC)

Thank you for the clarification. That makes sense. Do you think it is ready for prime time, meaning for publication? Gaw54 (talk) 20:52, 22 April 2024 (UTC)

Citation format for Draft: Bonnie Rychlak

I'm having trouble formatting several of the footnotes in my article on artist Bonnie Rychlak. I can't figure out how to format footnotes for a source used multiple times. Also, there are several footnotes showing up with the coding used rather than the text. I would very much appreciate assistance in this matter. Thank you. Gaw54 (talk) 14:12, 30 May 2024 (UTC)

Women in Red

Hi there, Gaw54, and welcome to Women in Red. I see you have already created two detailed biographies of women and now intend to create more. As you are now working on Draft:Bonnie Rychlak, you might find it useful to take account of our Ten Simple Rules. You need to be particularly careful when creating a biography of a living person. Let me know when you think the article is ready for mainspace and I'll take a closer look. Please also let me know if ever you run into any difficulties or need assistance. Happy editing!--Ipigott (talk) 15:39, 18 June 2024 (UTC)

Links to draft articles

Please do not introduce links in actual articles to draft articles, as you did to Isamu Noguchi. Since a draft is not yet ready for the main article space, it is not in shape for ordinary readers, and links from articles should not go to a draft. Such links are contrary to the Manual of Style. These links have been removed. Thank you. - Arjayay (talk) 10:25, 19 June 2024 (UTC)

Sorry for that oversight. I'm still catching up on on all the rules. Since my draft article showed up as a Wiki link on those other pages, I assumed that it was acceptable. Thanks for catching that. Gaw54 (talk) 11:52, 19 June 2024 (UTC)
