A message from JuggrnautTN

Regarding the undo of the redirect. The article Handmade Puppet Dreams is incomplete and I'm attempting to add to it. Any advice? JuggrnautTN (talk) 06:23, 11 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

@JuggrnautTN: Since you appear to need more time, I've reverted myself and added {{new user article}} at the top. Later on, when you get more experience writing articles, you can use {{under construction}} instead. Sorry about the confusion. -- I dream of horses (My talk page) (My edits) @ 07:18, 11 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Frank Boyden article draft feedback

Hello! I have a question in regards to your feedback on the article Draft:Frank Boyden. It has been reviewed by two different users now and so I just want to get some clarification going forward into further revisions. The first user to review it gave feedback such as making sure to avoid the article simply reading as a resume, which I tried to address by adding prose to accompany the lists, and by using references that were not the artist's resume. However, this user did also specifically say that my prose and its tone read great, and didn't offer any suggestions for change there. But since you have, I was wondering if you could give me an example of where you saw the tone deviating away from what is acceptable for an encyclopedia article. Thanks for your feedback! --Ramfan101 (talk) 18:16, 12 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

@Ramfan101: Firstly, if you're Frank Boyden, or know him, personally or professionally, it's probably best to declare that on your user page by simply writing a sentence or two about how you are/know Mr.Boyden and writing the draft on him, the talk page of the draft you're working on with the {{Connected contributor}} template, or both. In fact, if you're being paid by Mr.Boyden (either to write this draft specifically, or because you're his employee), this isn't just best practices, it's a requirement set forth by the organization that runs Wikipedia. If you're simply a fan of Mr.Boyden, then you can ignore the previous paragraph; this is simply a common circumstance for people who write drafts, particularly with the amount of information that you have.

As I look through the sources, I realize that perhaps they're the greater problem. I'm a little concerned that Frank Boyden has had a huge hand in creating a few of the sources you have put in the article (like the Sitka Center website; also, I would imagine artists' would have a huge influence in writing their biography for gallery websites, perhaps writing them themselves?)

Also, you can probably remove the list under "Awards" entirely, and write about it in prose. -- I dream of horses (My talk page) (My edits) @ 19:22, 12 May 2017 (UTC) (rephrased at 19:41, 12 May 2017 (UTC))[reply]

The Lion King (musical)

Hello, I have seen your edit on The Lion King (musical). And I was wondering, since I will not create a Wikipedia account here, if you could add the sales figures for the Broadway Version Recording to the page here: The Lion King (musical)#The Lion King: Original Broadway Cast Recording with the sub-heading Certifications. Here is the template:


Region	Certification	Certified units/sales
Australia (ARIA)^[1]	Gold	35,000^{^}
France (SNEP)^[2]	Gold	100,000^*
Germany (BVMI)^[3]	Gold	250,000^{^}
United Kingdom (BPI)^[4]	Silver	60,000^{^}
United States (RIAA)^[5]	Platinum	1,000,000^{^}
^* Sales figures based on certification alone. ^{^} Shipments figures based on certification alone.

You can add that to the talk page underneath {{Edit semi-protected}}, and get an editor more knowledgeable about the musical to evaluate it and add it in. -- I dream of horses (My talk page) (My edits) @ 17:23, 13 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

A message from AnRoCa

@I dream of horses: Hi, i understand your point and if that's the rule, that's how it is and i don't question that the SCW do important work ;) I was just irritated by your "it may be that SCW dosn't qualify", because it didn't seem certain and like there was room for imp rovement today. if not, we still have to wait for further mentions -> about how many? We already have more than 19... THANKS! And also, i know it's not like "they get an article, so should we", but https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cambodian_Center_for_Study_and_Development_in_Agriculture got an article without any references - they do similar work to SCW. Another (humanitarian) NGO in Cambodia also got an entry with only 4 unofficial references: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ADHOC. My point is that maybe SCW is referenced enough after all? What do you think? THANK YOU FOR YOUR HELP, I REALLY APPRECIATE IT!!! AnRoCa (talk) 11:53, 12 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

AnRoCa (talk) 04:45, 11 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

@AnRoCa: The SCW can be made into an article after multiple newsletters write about SCW without a press release; at the very least, they should write around a paragraph or more about SCW multiple times.

Just because SCW doesn't qualify for an article doesn't mean it doesn't do important work. It just means that SCW doesn't qualify for an article. -- I dream of horses (My talk page) (My edits) @ 04:54, 11 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

@AnRoCa: You claim to not say that other stuff exists, but then said exactly that. The articles you mentioned didn't go through AfC, so they didn't go through the rigorous process yours did; because they didn't go through the process, they will never be longer than a stub, and may very well be nominated for deletion eventually. Is that a fate that you want for your draft? I dream of horses (My talk page) (My edits) @ 19:00, 12 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

@I dream of horses: Thanks for explaining. I wasn't aware there are different types of pages. So, what do you suggest, how many more reliable mentions external without press release, before i can re-submit? In the meantime, the article won't be deleted, will it? thanks again. It's a bit hard being new to wikipedia and understanding all the rules..Thanks again. AnRoCa (talk) 3.49, 13 May 2017 (UTC)

@AnRoCa: Your draft won't be deleted for a decent length of time.

Minus press releases and whatever else SCW has written/involved in (there was a study/source that basically stated it was "by Saving Cambodias' Wildlife"), we're looking for a bare minimum of three sources that include at least a paragraph about SCW. A lot of sources only include a paragraph, and again, that's the bare minimum, and then there's a lot of sources that barely even mention SCW, sometimes only including it in a list. You would have to cut out a lot of information for lack of sourcing, and it wouldn't be expanded at any point in the future. Perhaps best to accept SCWs' lack of article. I dream of horses (My talk page) (My edits) @ 09:54, 13 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

@I dream of horses:ok, i will keep my eyes open for 3 independent sources with at least 1 paragraph. Which information do you recommend to cut out as of right now due to lack of sourcing? Would it be an option to get a more basic listing for now, similar to the other pages i mentioned? Thanks again. AnRoCa (talk) 5.18, 13 May 2017 (UTC)

@AnRoCa: I mean, I guess it would be an option.

Just wondering, is this something your boss wants you to write? I dream of horses (My talk page) (My edits) @ 17:36, 13 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

@I dream of horses: Thanks for your time and help. No, my boss did not want me to write this wikipedia article about SCW. If we turn it into a more basic article as we were thinking what would be the steps to do that? (until the 3 additional mentions as discussed to make it a real article)? Merci! AnRoCa (talk) 11.02, 15 May 2017 (UTC)

@AnRoCa: I'm wondering, who is "we"?

Try decreasing the draft to a paragraph. I dream of horses (My talk page) (My edits) @ 04:25, 15 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

@I dream of horses: i was referring to you and me as in we / us trying to find a solution together. i am aware that you are consulting me though. just trying to be nice. ok, thanks again. i'll think about if the 1 paragraph option is feasable for the moment. Thanks again AnRoCa (talk) 11.44, 15 May 2017 (UTC)

New Page Review - Newsletter No.4

Hello I dream of horses/2017,

Since rolling out the right in November, just 6 months ago, we now have 804 reviewers, but the backlog is still mysteriously growing fast. If every reviewer did just 55 reviews, the 22,000 backlog would be gone, in a flash, schwoop, just like that!

But do remember: Rather than speed, quality and depth of patrolling and the use of correct CSD criteria are essential to good reviewing. Do not over-tag. Make use of the message feature to let the creator know about your maintenance tags. See the tutorial again HERE. Get help HERE.

Stay up to date with recent new page developments and have your say, read THIS PAGE.

Hi, about the PH navy equipment page

A pleasant evening to you my friend. I am sorry for the way I edited without giving enough reason of doing it. I will provide the link as soon as possible. The necessary sources will be released tomorrow since a commissioning rite will be held at the same day for the assets involved and affected in my recent editing. I am asking for your permission to retain those recently edited portions the way I did it just a while ago.

Thanks for the invitation.

Hi Emily,

Judging by your user's page, which is an interesting read, you are a very valuable girl, and your personality is beautiful, fabulous, and adorable. It's very sad that you have depression. You are almost my clone, but I am a man, and feel happy. I used to have depression too, but now I don't need much to be happy. I am a minimalist. Basically I have no real friends but I myself am my true friend. Please let me know if I can help you. Regards. 85.193.243.42 (talk) 13:32, 23 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the offer; however, I cope very well with the subclinical relapses that I very occasionally have, and have one real friend to talk to. -- I dream of horses (My talk page) (My edits) @ 16:40, 23 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

From the Teahouse question I made

Hi!
So you were saying that you have the answer to my question, on how to insert a picture for my page from the Teahouse post and you told me that I could talk to you about it, as it shows:
Hi, although I am not a Tea House editor, I have a response to your question. Please leave a message on my talk page when you get a chance. It's kind of hard to explain, so it would be easier to have the discussion on my talk page.

Thank you!

Pavle Medakovic

Hi I saw that you added some tags to the above page which is unreviewed. I saw that you also have New pages reviewer rights which I have recently got too. I was wondering why you didn't mark the page as reviewed despite all the work you did on it? I'm trying to work out the best way to reduce the backlog. Cheers Domdeparis (talk) 12:33, 30 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

@Domdeparis: The reason why I didn't review the page is that I was using autowikibrowser, which doesn't patrol pages. This is probably for the best, since you would have to add in deletion templates, and most of the cleanup tags manually, but it does everything else (adding/removing {{Orphan}}, {{Dead end}} and {{Underlinked}}, correcting typos, etc.) automatically. The "automatic" part is sort of the point of AWB, even though you should look at the edits anyways to make sure everything is correct before hitting save. -- I dream of horses (My talk page) (My edits) @ 23:38, 30 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]
