User talk:Praetor71

Welcome!

Hello, Praetor71, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions.

I noticed that one of the first articles you created or edited appears to be an article about yourself. Writing about yourself is a common mistake made by new Wikipedians.

As this is an encyclopedia, we wouldn't expect to have an article about every contributor. We require individuals to meet Wikipedia's definition of a notable person to accept articles about them. A page you created about yourself may well be deleted from the encyclopedia. If it is deleted and you wish to retrieve its contents, don't hesitate to ask anyone from this list and they will copy it to your user page.

If your contributions to an existing article about yourself are undone and you wish to add to or change it, please propose the changes on its talk page.

Here are some pages that you might find helpful:

I am a student of Wolfgang Mückenheim, and I find this person remarkable (note several hundreds of citations of his Review of Extended Probabilities and 4 books with many editions). I have used the German Wikipedia and private communication to gather the information. If this is not accepted by the ruling admins, I will withdraw.

I have sent you a note about a page you started

Hi Praetor71. Thank you for your work on Wolfgang Mückenheim. Another editor, Ldm1954, has reviewed it as part of new pages patrol and left the following comment:

There are far too many issues with this page. In addition to those others have already tagged, his notability is very unclear. Worst, many claims go too far. For instance the draft said he developed the commercial eximer laser -- no, he was part of a team. Similarly the extended probabilities is cited as his work, but that is a multiauthor paper.

To reply, leave a comment here and begin it with {{Re|Ldm1954}}. (Message delivered via the Page Curation tool, on behalf of the reviewer.)

@Ldm1954: Mückenheim did not develop the excimer laser but the "first commercial tunable" excimer laser called EMG 150. This cannot be verified however by indepedent sources. So I have dropped it. The review of exteded probabilities is his work. Only in one chapter some independent scholars have contributedbecause he invited them.Praetor71 (talk) 18:10, 4 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Wolfgang Mückenheim moved to draftspace

Thanks for your contributions to Wolfgang Mückenheim. Unfortunately, I do not think it is ready for publishing at this time because it has too many problems of language or grammar and too many of the claims go too far, plus notability is very unclear. I have converted your article to a draft which you can improve, undisturbed for a while.

Please see more information at Help:Unreviewed new page. When the article is ready for publication, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page OR move the page back. Ldm1954 (talk) 13:16, 4 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Your submission at Articles for creation: Wolfgang Mückenheim (October 11)

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed. Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reasons left by Killarnee were:

This submission's references do not show that the subject qualifies for a Wikipedia article—that is, they do not show significant coverage (not just passing mentions) about the subject in published, reliable, secondary sources that are independent of the subject (see the guidelines on the notability of people). Before any resubmission, additional references meeting these criteria should be added (see technical help and learn about mistakes to avoid when addressing this issue). If no additional references exist, the subject is not suitable for Wikipedia.

This submission appears to read more like an advertisement than an entry in an encyclopedia. Encyclopedia articles need to be written from a neutral point of view, and should refer to a range of independent, reliable, published sources, not just to materials produced by the creator of the subject being discussed. This is important so that the article can meet Wikipedia's verifiability policy and the notability of the subject can be established. If you still feel that this subject is worthy of inclusion in Wikipedia, please rewrite your submission to comply with these policies.

Please check the submission for any additional comments left by the reviewer. You are encouraged to edit the submission to address the issues raised and resubmit after they have been resolved.

If you would like to continue working on the submission, go to Draft:Wolfgang Mückenheim and click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window.
If you do not edit your draft in the next 6 months, it will be considered abandoned and may be deleted.
If you need any assistance, or have experienced any untoward behavior associated with this submission, you can ask for help at the Articles for creation help desk, on the reviewer's talk page or use Wikipedia's real-time chat help from experienced editors.
