Welcome!

Hello, Megb64, and welcome to Wikipedia! I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Unfortunately, one or more of the pages you created, such as Draft:Sterling C. Quinlan, may not conform to some of Wikipedia's content policies and may not be retained. In short, the topic of an article must be notable and have already been the subject of publication by reliable and independent sources.

Please review Your first article for an overview of the article creation process. The Article Wizard is available to help you create an article, where it will be reviewed and considered for publication. For information on how to request a new article that can be created by someone else, see Requested articles. If you are stuck, come to the Teahouse, where experienced Wikipedians can help you through the processes.

New to Wikipedia? Please consider taking a look at our introductory tutorial or reviewing the contributing to Wikipedia page to learn the basics about editing. Below are a few other good pages about article creation.

If you have any questions, ask me on my talk page. You can also type {{help me}} on this page, followed by your question, and someone will show up shortly to answer your questions.

Speedy deletion nomination of Draft:Sterling C. Quinlan

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 Draft:Sterling C. Quinlan requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page appears to be an unambiguous copyright infringement. This page appears to be a direct copy from https://www.encyclopedia.com/arts/educational-magazines/quinlan-sterling-c-1916-2007-red-quinlan-sterling-carroll-quinlan. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images taken from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. You may use external websites or other printed material as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. This part is crucial: say it in your own words. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.

If the external website or image belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text or image — which means allowing other people to use it for any reason — then you must verify that externally by one of the processes explained at Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials. The same holds if you are not the owner but have their permission. If you are not the owner and do not have permission, see Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission for how you may obtain it. You might want to look at Wikipedia's copyright policy for more details, or ask a question here.

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.

Women in Red

Hi there, Megb64, and welcome to Women in Red. It's good to see you intend to help us improve coverage of women writers and artists. On the basis of the biographies you've already written, it looks as if you'll be a useful member. I've been through many of your articles adding categories, defaultsort, authority control, etc. You'll find guidelines about these and other aspects of writing women's biographies in our Ten Simple Rules. You'll soon be receiving our notice for next month which includes women writers. Please let me know if you run into any difficulties or need assistance. Happy editing!--Ipigott (talk) 10:07, 30 August 2022 (UTC)

Maybe you could improve Iris Apatow by including at least three secondary sources.--Ipigott (talk) 06:33, 31 August 2022 (UTC)

Ways to improve Iris Apatow

Hello, Megb64,

Thank you for creating Iris Apatow.

I have tagged the page as having some issues to fix, as a part of our page curation process and note that:

This article needs reliable sources as references, not IMDB or other user generated content sites

The tags can be removed by you or another editor once the issues they mention are addressed. If you have questions, leave a comment here and begin it with {{Re|Slywriter}}. Remember to sign your reply with ~~~~. For broader editing help, please visit the Teahouse.

Proposed deletion of Iris Apatow

Hello, Megb64

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

I wanted to let you know, however, that I’ve proposed an article that you started, Iris Apatow, for deletion because it's a biography of a living person that lacks references. To prevent the deletion, please add a reference to the article. You may remove the deletion tag yourself once the article has at least one reliable source.

If you have any questions, please leave a comment here and prepend it with {{Re|Velella}}. And, don't forget to sign your reply with ~~~~ . Thanks!

Matilda Gilruth Carpenter moved to draftspace

An article you recently created, Matilda Gilruth Carpenter, is not suitable as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. Right now, there is not a single in-depth source about this person. She might be notable, but the brief mentions do not show it. (?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of "Draft:" before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page.

Women in Red 8th Anniversary

	Women in Red 8th Anniversary
	In July 2015 around 15.5% of the English Wikipedia's biographies were about women. As of July 2023, 19.61% of the English Wikipedia's biographies are about women. That's a lot of biographies created in the effort to close the gender gap. Happy 8th Anniversary! Join us for some virtual cake and add comments or memories and please keep on editing to close the gap!

Rebecca Lee Crumpler

Hi, I see that I posted earlier on your page, so maybe "Hi again" is good.

I see that you made some great copy edits to the Rebecca Lee Crumpler. There were also some edits that you... and very likely other people before you made... such as links in the article, and I made some other comments about edits I made today. You may want to look at Talk:Rebecca Lee Crumpler#Recent edits (July 2023) in the event that I made some changes that you disagree with. Just as an FYI since you took an interest in one of my favorite articles.

Hope you're having a lovely day!

Writing biographies

Hallo Meg, I've come across a few biographies you've created using {{Simple biography}}. I've never seen this template before, but the result isn't good. The lead sentence it creates includes a redundant circular link (it links the lead name, though this doesn't affect the appearance as it would be bolded anyway), and it gives the dates as, for example "b. November 3, 1890, d. November 13, 1959," rather than "(November 3, 1890 – November 13, 1959)". Please stop using it, or clean up after you've used it. Thanks. (Did someone recommend you to use it? If so, I don't think it was good advice.) PamD 00:09, 5 December 2023 (UTC)

On the other hand there's a very useful little template called {{L}}, which has to be used substituted: here's my standard messaage about it: (I noticed that Susan Galton didn't have a "DEFAULTSORT" so would be filing under "S" not "G" in any categories)

There is a very easy way to add the DEFAULTSORT (so the article files by surname in lists), and Category:Living people where appropriate, and any birth or death date category: {{subst:L|1882|1984|Brown, Annie}} would create {{DEFAULTSORT:Brown, Annie}}, Category:1882 births and Category:1984 deaths, while {{subst:L|||Smith, Jane}} would create {{DEFAULTSORT:Smith, Jane}}, Category:Living people and Category:Date of birth missing (living people). Lack of death date implies "living" (or you can add "unknown" or "missing" as the death date to suppress this). You get a lot done for a few keystrokes: I think it's a great little template. Happy Editing.

PamD 00:21, 5 December 2023 (UTC)

Thanks for letting me know! I won't use {{Simple biography}} template anymore. I don't think any recommended I use it, I believe it was something I came across organically. And thanks for the tip about DEFAULTSORT, I'll definitely start using that. Megb64 (talk) 15:21, 5 December 2023 (UTC)

I think the template is perhaps intended for adding a brief biography to a list, but it's not helpful as I can't think of any situation in which we use a "b." and "d.", where both are known, rather than "(date-date)"! I've posted on the talk page of the template to ask what it's for.

There's always more to learn about editing Wikipedia: next lesson is that if you want to refer to a template, don't type {{Simple biography}} but {{tl|Simple biography}}. "tl" stands for "Template link". It means you can see what the template is named, and click on it to get to the template documentation page, but it doesn't actually leap into action (ie try to display stuff, add categories, or whatever the template does).

I produced the above effect by using the <code></code> and <nowiki></nowiki> markup: "Code" displays it in big chunky letters, and "nowiki" means it doesn't get read as Wiki markup. Both are useful when discussing wiki markup. Lots to learn. Happy Editing!

Another point: always have a look at what you've input before leaving the page. You'd included a "live" usage of {{Simple biography}} which produced a strange layout (see this version of this talk page, where the template was struggling to perform with no input parameters!). I fixed it by adding the "tl". If you find you've made a mess and can't work out how to fix it, but have already hit "Publish", you can always go into the page history and click on "undo". It happens, and is better than leaving the page looking odd. PamD 15:49, 5 December 2023 (UTC)

Thanks! Megb64 (talk) 18:07, 5 December 2023 (UTC)

You might be interested to see Wikipedia:Templates for discussion/Log/2023 December 8 where I've proposed {{Simple biography}} for deletion, because I can't see that it's any use to anyone and is just misleading by its very existence! PamD 10:19, 8 December 2023 (UTC)

Good idea! I agree that it is very misleading. Megb64 (talk) 15:47, 8 December 2023 (UTC)

GMH Melbourne (talk) 01:38, 23 April 2024 (UTC)

It looks like the biggest problem is list of things, like "writers, directors, composers, choreographers, and cinematographers." which could be summarized to "people in the film industry" - or whatever would be correct for that scenario.

There are also hits on the names of works. You're good if it's just one name of a work, but where there are two or more from the same source, you just need to find a way to word it so it doesn't look like a copy-and-paste - perhaps summarizing a bit of information from the source about each of the works and put it in two sentences? Perhaps.

I hope that helps. It would be nice to save it, if that's possible, otherwise a tag for copyright violations will probably mean that the draft will be deleted soon.

Hi @CheAjlt, sorry for the delayed response! I haven't been as actively recently but am hoping to edit more when summer is over. It looks like you've created a great draft for Jayne Hazard! Great job! Megb64 (talk) 14:00, 12 July 2024 (UTC)

Well thank you, know could be possible to you to help me improved so can later moved to main article? CheAjlt (talk) 16:18, 12 July 2024 (UTC)

The main thing I would recommend right now is gathering more references. The two you have now look reliable, but its best to have more if possible. Do you have access to the Wikipedia Library? If so, I recommend looking for more news sources on Newspapers.com and NewspaperArchive.com. I have found those two collections particularly helpful in writing biographies for actors of Hazard's era.

Orphaned non-free image File:The 5th Wave novel.jpg

⚠

Thanks for uploading File:The 5th Wave novel.jpg. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described in section F5 of the criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. --B-bot (talk) 04:05, 12 November 2024 (UTC)

Please use edit summaries

Hello. Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. I noticed that one or more recent edit(s) you made did not have an edit summary. You can use the edit summary field to explain your reasoning for an edit, or to provide a description of what the edit changes. Summaries save time for other editors and reduce the chances that your edit will be misunderstood. For some edits, an adequate summary may be quite brief.

The edit summary field looks like this:

Edit summary (Briefly describe your changes)

Please provide an edit summary for every edit you make. With a Wikipedia account, you can give yourself a reminder by setting Preferences → Editing → Prompt me when entering a blank edit summary (or the default undo summary), and then click the "Save" button. Thanks! Spideog (talk) 13:52, 20 November 2024 (UTC)
