Question from Eduardo cemano (22:57, 31 December 2023)

I already have a Wikipedia page under the name ED seeman. However iy is so brief that it doesn't include many of my life's careers and published articless since most of my accomplishments are on the internet and not in book form. Can I submit to wikipdia a resume or bio that have been published on the internet and on Google. I have been written about as Ed Seeman and Eduardo Cemano. Googling both names will show the millions of websites all about both my careers. --Eduardo cemano (talk) 22:57, 31 December 2023 (UTC)

@Eduardo cemano: Hi, if you believe there's content that should be added to or changed on you Wikipedia page, the preferred way to do this is by submitting a conflict of interest edit request on the article's talk page. You should read the instructions and suggestions at WP:MAKINGEREQ and Wikipedia:Guide to effective COI edit requests. In short, you should use the template {{edit COI}}, and the edit request should be in the general format of "change [original text] to [new text] because [reason]", including reliable sources to support the new text. Liu1126 (talk) 23:14, 31 December 2023 (UTC)

I have a resume format that is published on my website that tells my whole life story better than the wikipedia page that now exists that someone at Wikipedia did from a more extensive history that a friend of mine submitted. How can I submit this entire different presentation that covers my life much better rather than trying to just add facts to what I believe doesn't tell my story.

Edward Seeman is an American artist of Polish descent whose works have spanned disparate fields, from award-winning animated television commercials for children. While much of his work has been done in still images (painted drawn and computer-based), the bulk of his work from the 1960s into the 1980s was as an animator, with side projects in film.

His animation attracted attention to him as an artist and in 1981 he won an Emmy award with Ray Favata for his introductory cartoon for The Great Space Coaster, a children's show. His cartoon-commercials also won awards, including ADDYs and Clios. He is also known for his cinemaphotography and for his work with Frank Zappa in the 1960s. He made montage sequences for the feature film. Uncle Meat, as well as Frank Zappa and the Mothers of Invention, which won a Cine Golden Eagle award in 1968.

Since 2010 he has been doing another kind of montage with still images, Fractalegends, showing famous people in different stages of their lives and "presented in their most memorable poses".

CAREER

Seeman graduated from The High School of Music & Art on 135th Street in New York City, focusing on both singing and art in his studies.

After graduation he worked as a singer in nightclubs and Off Broadway, and also at the Naponoch Country Club in the Catskills. He didn't stop there, but pursued work as an artist, initially creating advertisements for Alexander's, a New York department store. His career came into focus when he was hired at Paramount Pictures, learning the craft of cell animation.

While at Paramount he worked as an inbetweener, a position in which the artist completes the frames in a sequence, between start and end frames drawn by the animator. Another job he worked was as an opaquer on Popeye, painting the back of each frame to add color to the images before they were photographed.

Seeman worked, learning his craft on frames that went into Popeye the Sailorman and Casper the Friendly Ghost. His career was interrupted when Seeman was drafted into the U.S. Army.

GRYPHON PRODUCTIONS

Along with his business partner Ray Favata, also an animator, Seeman began the media company Gryphon Productions, which ran from about 1960 to 1969. They produced commercials using cartoon characters. The animations that were produced included Flintstones Fruity Pebbles, Sugar Crisp Cereal (with Sugar Bear), Hasbro Toys' Charmkins and Huggles (from the Great Space Coaster), and My Little Pony, among a much longer list that includes at least 20 different products that advertised using cartoons. After the company closed, Seeman and Favata continued to work together, producing advertisements in the 1970s and '80s.

FRACTAL ART

http://www.edseeman.com/FANTASTICFRACTALS.htm

Unlike other Fractal art works I am creating RORSCHACH TYPE ART THAT ALLOWS THE VIEWER TO BECOME INTERACTIVE WITH THE ART.
My art will look differently with each viewing as new hidden faces and creatures and scenes appear.
What I believe I've achieved is a kind of KINETIC PSYCHEDELIC 2D ART

FRACTALEGENDS

http://www.edseeman.com/FRACTALEGENDS.htm

“FRACTALEGENDS” (Fractal Art+ Legends= Fractalegends)
Ed Seeman has created OVER 1500 living portraits of LEGENDARY PERSONALITIES by montaging many of their famous faces and action shots depicting their illustrious careers at all ages, into ONE ALL ENCOMPASSING PORTRAIT fused together with my FRACTAL ART.
I call these PORTRAIT TRIBUTES “FRACTALEGENDS”. That have been published and sold throughout the internet as T-shirts and Posters.

@Eduardo cemano: Unless you can gain consensus that the article is damaged beyond repair and the only way to fix it is to blow it up and start over, it is very unlikely that editors will simply replace the current version with yours. After all, no individual owns any articles, not even you as the subject, so no one can individually decide what the article should look like. I still suggest that you submit an edit request, possibly incorporating parts of this resume, and let other editors decide what to include. Liu1126 (talk) 02:09, 3 January 2024 (UTC)

Question from Wikipedianumberonefan (13:47, 6 January 2024)

How do I change the title of my page from Wikipedianumberonefan/sandbox to something else? --Wikipedianumberonefan (talk) 13:47, 6 January 2024 (UTC)

@Wikipedianumberonefan: Hi, non-autoconfirmed editors are prevented from moving pages by software. What title do you want the page to be changed to? Liu1126 (talk) 13:53, 6 January 2024 (UTC)

Question from Ssgrayfox (21:55, 8 January 2024)

Hey there. I'm sorry to bother you but I have created a wiki page that I feel is mostly ready for publishing but there is one big problem that I cannot figure out how to fix. I cant figure out how to put all my references in the reference tab of the article. I've tried different solutions that dont work. Tutorials online and on wiki are not helping me. I use visual editor and lack html skills because those were before my time. Also this article desperately needs to be published as this musical group has little information in English and I painstakingly hunted down everything so that English speakers can learn about them. So if you could help review it that would be great. --Ssgrayfox (talk) 21:55, 8 January 2024 (UTC)

@Ssgrayfox: Hi, I see that you have used the "references" html code, which automatically puts formatted citations into the section the code is in, which is the "Notes" section for your draft (Template:Reflist is more commonly used, but the two are essentially the same). The reason that this only worked for the first citation (the "about" source in the line Hasami group was founded in 2006 When Ryuichiro was a middle school student.[1]) is because you cited all the other references as external links. You should use the "cite" button in the top toolbar for Visual Editor to cite the other sources like you did for the first one. I have done an example in the paragraph In 2010 Ryuichiro..., and you can see the differences between the two styles.

I also see that you are using a lot of primary sources in your draft. Basing an entire article or large portions of one on primary sources is unadvisable, and evaluations of the article subject's notability also requires secondary sources. I would recommend adding some secondary sources to your draft wherever possible, as that would improve the chances of the draft being accepted.

Please don't hesitate to reach out if you have any more questions, and good luck with your draft! Liu1126 (talk) 11:01, 9 January 2024 (UTC)

Question from Btownhouse61 on Category:Sarasota High School alumni (02:46, 20 January 2024)

Hello my name is Barbara and I would like to add my mother Patricia Taylor to Sarasota High, how do I do this ? --Btownhouse61 (talk) 02:46, 20 January 2024 (UTC)

@Btownhouse61: Hi, as Wikipedia is not an indiscriminate collection of information, subjects need to demonstrate their notability to merit inclusion, especially in cases where there may be tens of thousands of possible candidates. To demonstrate your mother's notability, you would need to show that there is significant coverage of her in reliable sources that are independent of her. In most alumni lists/categories like this one, subjects would also already have their own Wikipedia article. Hope this helps! Liu1126 (talk) 12:31, 20 January 2024 (UTC)

Dr. Mark Chae

Hi, I am quite new to adding material on wikipedia, and I believe I made some mistakes with a citation. Your help would be appreciated. Mark Dr. Mark Chae (talk) 12:59, 25 January 2024 (UTC)

@Dr. Mark Chae: Welcome to Wikipedia! Can you be a bit more specific about the issue? I would be glad to help. Liu1126 (talk) 22:17, 25 January 2024 (UTC)

Question from DeeDotEssKay (07:01, 29 January 2024)

How do I add a picture to my grandfather's wiki page?

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Truman_Spain

My grandfather was a 1935 All American Football Player with Southern Methodist University. He was also on a Wheaties box. I have a picture of the Wheaties box and would like to add it to his page. --DeeDotEssKay (talk) 07:01, 29 January 2024 (UTC)

@DeeDotEssKay, welcome to Wikipedia! This would depend on the copyright status of the image on the Wheaties box. If it is not freely licensed (e.g. it's copyright is owned by Wheaties), then it should be uploaded at Wikipedia:Files for upload. If it is freely licensed, then it should be uploaded at Wikimedia Commons. Based on the date, my guess is that the image is in public domain by now, but I would advise you to ask more about this at the English Wikipedia's Teahouse or at the Commons Help Desk, since I'm not very familiar with copyright matters. Good luck! Liu1126 (talk) 11:07, 29 January 2024 (UTC)

Question from Adzontour123 (18:55, 30 January 2024)

false information is provided on Isaias Afewerki wikipedia page which is biased and contreversial, calling him a "dictator". please may this passage be removed --Adzontour123 (talk) 18:55, 30 January 2024 (UTC)

@Adzontour123, I would recommend you discuss these issues on the article's own talk page. Note that all statements in Wikipedia articles need to be verifiable through reliable sources and proportionally represent the viewpoints of all reliable sources. The passages which you believe to be false information appear to be very well referenced, so you would either need to argue that these current statements are actually not supported by the cited sources, provide alternative reliable sources to support your viewpoint, or argue that undue weight has been given to these events.

Question from SimSimmer78 (12:29, 30 January 2024)

Hey! I'm pretty new to Wiki - I've done a bit of reading about Wiki and I created an account so I can start editing pages - I'm wondering what are some good beginner edits to make? --SimSimmer78 (talk) 12:29, 30 January 2024 (UTC)

@SimSimmer78, welcome to Wikipedia! The best way to get started would be to try doing the suggested edits on your newcomer homepage (it's the page from where you probably asked this question, and should be accessible by clicking your username at the top of the page). Otherwise, you may find interactive tutorials like Wikipedia:The Wikipedia Adventure and Help:Introduction useful.

If you want some specific examples, I personally do a lot of work in countering vandalism, where I work to remove unconstructive edits from pages, although this is a task that generally requires a bit more experience with Wikipedia. I also do some copyediting, which is a good newcomer task if you're good at grammar.

Don't hesitate to ask any questions, and good luck! Liu1126 (talk) 12:47, 30 January 2024 (UTC)

Thank you very much! SimSimmer78 (talk) 16:01, 31 January 2024 (UTC)

Question from Akhinesh777 (13:33, 2 February 2024)

Hello, i know how to upload picture to Wikimedia commons but don't know how to use CC licence here. I created a new article about OPPO A5 and i have the phone but I can't add to Wikimedia Commons because i don't know how to use CC Licence --Akhinesh777 (talk) 13:33, 2 February 2024 (UTC)

@Akhinesh777, I presume you're unsure about what CC license the image falls under (the Upload Wizard makes the process of actually adding the license tags, once determined, quite clear)? Unfortunately, I'm not an expert in copyright laws, so I can't help you here. I would advise you ask at the Commons help desk or the copyright village pump, as the editors there would be more familiar with such issues and help you choose the right license to upload the image under.

I have been blocked edit

Hello @Liu1126, I see that wiki has chosen you to be my editing consultant. As the title above states, I was blocked for vandalism. After that incident, I researched why I was accused of vandalism, and the reason was curiosity. I have no intention of asking you to remove the block for me. I would like to ask for your advice so that next time I won't be blocked, and i hope you will respond. Kind like which posts should I choose to edit? or What should I do when editing to avoid being blocked? Besides, I have a feeling about retaliation, and if that happens, what should I do. Đỗ Quang Phục (talk) 05:21, 6 February 2024 (UTC)

@Đỗ Quang Phục I don't see any block logs for your account right now. Were you blocked on a previous account? In that case, you should request an unblock on your old account instead of starting a new one.

I do not know what edits you were blocked for, but there's a list of common types of vandalism at Wikipedia:Vandalism, and you prior actions probably fall under one or another category there. Usually, editors will contact or warn you, often several times, if they believe you're doing something wrong (unless the damage is quite egregious or is subject to oversight), in which case you should stop what you were doing (instead of trying to repeat your edits, which would constitute edit warring) and respond to these comments. Liu1126 (talk) 12:14, 6 February 2024 (UTC)

Thank you for your advice @Liu1126, I was very worried when I couldn't log in, Until I remembered the last time auto-login was available on the browser. Đỗ Quang Phục (talk) 22:43, 6 February 2024 (UTC)

Thank you for your help, without you it would have taken me a long time to join the wiki Đỗ Quang Phục (talk) 22:44, 6 February 2024 (UTC)

Question from Chukwuocha (16:45, 7 February 2024)

Hello, can I cite a book to an article? --Chukwuocha (talk) 16:45, 7 February 2024 (UTC)

@Chukwuocha, yes you can. This is usually done with the template Template:Cite book; you can find information about its usage in its documentation. The easiest way to insert the template into a certain location is to click the "Cite" button in the top bar of the editor, then choosing "Book" if you're using visual editor, or clicking "Template" then choosing "cite book" if you're using source editor. There will then be a pop up, in which you can enter the book information. Liu1126 (talk) 16:52, 7 February 2024 (UTC)

Question from Shazir Yousaf on Chakrian (11:42, 11 February 2024)

How can I add pics --Shazir Yousaf (talk) 11:42, 11 February 2024 (UTC)

@Shazir Yousaf, if the image you want to add is already on Wikimedia Commons or stored locally in Wikipedia, you can insert the image by clicking the "Insert" button in the toolbar if you're using Visual Editor, or clicking the image icon in the toolbar if you're using Source Editor. If it's not uploaded yet, you should upload it at Commons if it's freely licensed, or make a request at Wikipedia:Files for upload if it's not. Liu1126 (talk) 12:08, 11 February 2024 (UTC)

Question from Sandhyagupta04 (12:57, 11 February 2024)

hi advice how to i will write best articles on wiki about a social worker here --Sandhyagupta04 (talk) 12:57, 11 February 2024 (UTC)

@Sandhyagupta04, you should read Help:Your first article; it is a good guide to writing articles.

In short, Wikipedia articles are about notable subjects and should be supported by reliable sources. The article's content should abide by the Manual of Style. Other guidelines may also apply, like Wikipedia:Biographies of living persons. Good luck! Liu1126 (talk) 13:48, 11 February 2024 (UTC)
