User talk:JackRubenacker

Hello! Please do not swear on my talk page.

Welcome!

Hello, JackRubenacker, and welcome to Wikipedia! My name is Shalor and I work with the Wiki Education Foundation; I help support students who are editing as part of a class assignment.

I hope you enjoy editing here. If you haven't already done so, please check out the student training library, which introduces you to editing and Wikipedia's core principles. You may also want to check out the Teahouse, a community of Wikipedia editors dedicated to helping new users. Below are some resources to help you get started editing.

If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to contact me on my talk page. Shalor (Wiki Ed) (talk) 21:11, 25 January 2018 (UTC)

Article deletion

Hi! I saw that your article was up for deletion. It looks like one of the main arguments is that it needs sourcing to back up the claims and establish notability, as most of the sourcing is primary or is somewhat questionable as a source. You need to make sure that the sourcing is independent of Democracy 2.1 and any person, organization, or institution that is affiliated with the organization, its founder, or its workers. You also need to make sure that the source is routinely seen as a reliable source and undergoes a good editorial oversight. There are some other issues brought up at the deletion discussion, so let me know on my talk page if you have any questions. Shalor (Wiki Ed) (talk) 20:42, 30 April 2018 (UTC)

Thanks for letting me know Shalor! I was under the impression that all but one of my sources were independent from the topic, though the deletion consideration has now provided me some insight as to the quality of some sources. I intend to meet with my professor about it. JackRubenacker (talk) 07:13, 1 May 2018 (UTC)

Orphaned non-free image File:Democracy 2.1 logo.png

⚠

Thanks for uploading File:Democracy 2.1 logo.png. 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) 17:34, 17 May 2019 (UTC)
