Tagging pages for problems
Tagging pages for problems

"Tags" are often used to indicate problems. Some Wikipedia editors object to the practice of tagging instead of fixing, but there is value in pointing out an article's problems. Tagging allows editors to specialize, teaches editors and warns readers about subpar or problematic content. It is better if people solve the problems they encounter themselves, but not everyone may be able to. Editors are sometimes obliged to justify inclusion of tags, such as in the case of Template:POV.

Constructive criticism given in a civil, respectful manner is a vital part in a collaborative project like Wikipedia, and it should be welcomed rather than discouraged. Wikipedia values contributions from everyone—novices and experts alike. It is important to listen to readers who find an article biased, confusing or unconvincing. They might not have the expertise to fix those problems, but the fact that they report them probably means that an article needs improvement.

Drafts of articles

[edit]

Hello. Category:Lesbian-related television programs is on my watchlist and saw that your Draft:Pot Luck (web series) was added to it and is awaiting official review. May I make a suggestion: don't create a draft that includes reliable sources and wait for it to be approved -- just straight-out create the article. There are a multitude of television-related editors checking out articles to make sure all the "t's" are crossed and "i's" are dotted. If an article is not supported by WP:RS, it will be tagged for review. Ciao! Pyxis Solitary yak 23:35, 26 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]
