Question from Wendy Maria Morava (22:08, 2 July 2024)

Hello CocoBB,

I have a question; I'm trying to learn how to write a biography page about an Albanian artist. The page and article do not exist yet; how can I create them? Thank you in advance! --Wendy Maria Morava (talk) 22:08, 2 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hello @Wendy Maria Morava! I suggest you take a thorough look at this full guide, which goes over everything you need to know about creating your first article. If you have any questions after reading it, let me know!

Your GA nomination of Rogue One

Hi there, I'm pleased to inform you that I've begun reviewing the article Rogue One you nominated for GA-status according to the criteria. This process may take up to 7 days. Feel free to contact me with any questions or comments you might have during this period. Message delivered by ChristieBot, on behalf of Cambalachero -- Cambalachero (talk) 15:42, 11 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Your GA nomination of Rogue One

The article Rogue One you nominated as a good article has been placed on hold . The article is close to meeting the good article criteria, but there are some minor changes or clarifications needing to be addressed. If these are fixed within 7 days, the article will pass; otherwise it may fail. See Talk:Rogue One and Talk:Rogue One/GA1 for issues which need to be addressed.

Question from Useradam (23:56, 14 July 2024)

Hello, can this page (https://virtualnerd.com/algebra-1/relations-functions/relations/definitions/solution-set-definition) be used as a citation for this wikipedia page (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solution_set) for the first paragraph? --Useradam (talk) 23:56, 14 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hi @Useradam! I would refreain from using this source as on first look it does not seem reliable by Wikipedia's standards. Let me know if you need help finding another good one! Cheers, Cocobb8 (💬 talk • ✏️ contribs) 02:22, 15 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Question from Useradam (00:25, 15 July 2024)

also, how to I write down a translated book cover from "De la vita civile, ouero del senno libri dieci" to "On civil life, or on wisdom, ten books" in Wikipedia format? --Useradam (talk) 00:25, 15 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Useradam, use {{cite book}}, it should have fields for what you need with examples. Cocobb8 (💬 talk • ✏️ contribs) 02:25, 15 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hi @Eggyman420, I can do it for you. What page is it and what do you want it to be renamed to, and why? Cocobb8 (💬 talk • ✏️ contribs) 22:21, 16 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Want to help out?

Hi, Cocobb! I know that you have a pretty apt interest in space (as I saw with Vast and Muon Space), which is why I am reaching out to you here. For the past year or so, I have been working on-and-off on a little "pet project" of mine's, an article on the modern space race. I know that it is an incredibly vast topic, but such is my love for space :-) I've already completed a good amount, I've got up to 2017-ish, so that's good? But I did have three main concerns:

  • Timeline Ohh, the timeline is huge. As I was researching, there was a huge amount of interesting topics and milestones which I think is notable but not sure where to fit within the article. Articles are supposed to follow a theme and have a flow to it, therefore I've tried to fit everything as best as I could. But I'm not perfect!
  • Sourcing Not really a major concern of mine, I love researching and sourcing and have found a more-than-adequate amount, but still worth a look considering your self-professed love for sourcing...
  • Wording Am I wording everything right? Grammar, context, flow, the whole shebang. I have been attempting to copyedit some of my work, but as I've found, it helps to have another hand at it.
  • Expansion I'm pretty busy at home and often can't get on Wikipedia for as long as I'd like, sometimes staying offline for months at a time. As a result, my ongoing work has to be shelved. It helps to have another person working on it while I'm out!

I know I'm asking a lot, considering the breadth of the topic, but I hope you can help out!!

Cheers, --WellThisIsTheReaper Grim 06:18, 20 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

As a little side note: I hope this article can reach GA status, but one can only dream, right? --WellThisIsTheReaper Grim 06:20, 20 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@WellThisIsTheReaper, I really appreciate the message here! That sounds like an awesome draft! I'm quite busy this summer (currently wrapping up my first GA nom), so I will definitely be working on this draft (or article if published before then :p) starting in late August or so!
