Home (Electronic Music) moved to draftspace

Thanks for your contributions to Home (musician). Unfortunately, it is not ready for publishing because it needs more sources to establish notability. Your article is now a draft where you can improve it 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. DoubleGrazing (talk) 10:20, 9 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Your submission at Articles for creation: Home (musician) (August 9)

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

This submission is not adequately supported by reliable sources. Reliable sources are required so that information can be verified. If you need help with referencing, please see Referencing for beginners and Citing sources.

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 music-related topics). 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.

The comment the reviewer left was:

Twitter, YouTube, Discogs and Soundcloud are not considered reliable sources.

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:Home (musician) 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.

Hello Indiana6724! Your additions to Bluffton, Indiana have been removed in whole or in part, as they appear to have added copyrighted content without evidence that the source material is in the public domain or has been released by its owner or legal agent under a suitably free and compatible copyright license. (To request such a release, see Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission.) While we appreciate your contributions to Wikipedia, there are certain things you must keep in mind about using information from sources to avoid copyright and plagiarism issues.

You can only copy/translate a small amount of a source, and you must mark what you take as a direct quotation with double quotation marks (") and cite the source using an inline citation. You can read about this at Wikipedia:Non-free content in the sections on "text". See also Help:Referencing for beginners, for how to cite sources here.
Aside from limited quotation, you must put all information in your own words and structure, in proper paraphrase. Following the source's words too closely can create copyright problems, so it is not permitted here; see Wikipedia:Close paraphrasing. Even when using your own words, you are still, however, asked to cite your sources to verify the information and to demonstrate that the content is not original research.
We have strict guidelines on the usage of copyrighted images. Fair use images must meet all ten of the non-free content criteria in order to be used in articles, or they will be deleted. To be used on Wikipedia, all other images must be made available under a free and open copyright license that allows commercial and derivative reuse.
If you own the copyright to the source you want to copy or are a legally designated agent, you may be able to license that text so that we can publish it here. Understand, though, that unlike many other sites, where a person can license their content for use there and retain non-free ownership, that is not possible at Wikipedia. Rather, the release of content must be irrevocable, to the world, into either the public domain (PD) or under a suitably free and compatible copyright license. Please see Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials.
Also note that Wikipedia articles may not be copied or translated without attribution. If you want to copy or translate from another Wikipedia project or article, you must follow the copyright attribution steps described at Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia. See also Help:Translation#License requirements.

It's very important that contributors understand and follow these practices, as policy requires that people who persistently do not must be blocked from editing. If you have any questions about this, please ask them here on this page, or leave a message on my talk page. Documentation: https://copypatrol.toolforge.org/en/?id=105230471 Thank you. Regards, Spintendo 01:47, 27 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Am i allowed to roll it back so i can redo some of it, not all of it has been directly copied. Indiana6724 (talk) 03:18, 27 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

i dont want to go through all the hassle of rewriting the whole thing, id much perfer if i could remake it enough in proper paraphrase Indiana6724 (talk) 03:19, 27 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

January 2024

Hello, I'm 33ABGirl. I noticed that you recently removed content from 2024 without adequately explaining why. In the future, it would be helpful to others if you described your changes to Wikipedia with an accurate edit summary. The edit summary for this revert is unacceptable. If you want to remove something, please give a edit summary which adequately addresses the reasons for the removal. 33ABGirl (talk) 02:13, 4 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Welcome!

Hi @Indiana6724, Glad to see that you're interested in improving content about Indiana. So are we, the Wikimedians of Indiana, ... join us! If you're in central Indiana, we also have semi regular meetups. Have fun! -- Jaireeodell (talk) 16:12, 15 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Photomontage

Refrain from adding back the 2022 photomontage. The agreement in the RfC was to remove the ones that are contested. Even though a discussion about it has been abandoned for a month, doesn't mean it doesn't count. DementiaGaming (talk) 13:46, 19 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Disambiguation link notification for January 27

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited South Bend, Indiana, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page St. Joseph River. Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)

It's OK to remove this message. Also, to stop receiving these messages, follow these opt-out instructions. Thanks, --DPL bot (talk) 17:48, 27 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for your contributions to List of fiction set in Indianapolis. Unfortunately, I do not think it is ready for publishing at this time because it has no sources. I have converted your article to a draft which you can improve, undisturbed for a while.

Speedy deletion nomination of Circle Tower

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.
You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on Circle Tower requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page appears to be an unambiguous copyright infringement. This page appears to be a direct copy from https://indyencyclopedia.org/circle-tower/. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images taken from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. You may use external websites or other printed material as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. This part is crucial: say it in your own words. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.

If the external website or image belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text or image — which means allowing other people to use it for any reason — then you must verify that externally by one of the processes explained at Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials. The same holds if you are not the owner but have their permission. If you are not the owner and do not have permission, see Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission for how you may obtain it. You might want to look at Wikipedia's copyright policy for more details, or ask a question here.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.

I have sent you a note about a page you started

Hi Indiana6724. Thank you for your work on Circle Tower. Another editor, Bruxton, has reviewed it as part of new pages patrol and left the following comment:

I hope you develop the article. I find that there are sources available so I am marking this as reviewed.

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

Did You Know nomination

Thank you for starting the Circle Tower article. I worked on it and nominated it at DYK and you can follow the progress. Template:Did you know nominations/Circle Tower. Hopefully it will be reviewed, then promoted and featured on the main page. Keep on editing! Bruxton (talk) 22:01, 10 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you very much, I really appreciate that man. Indiana6724 (talk) 22:56, 10 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Indiana

Thank you for reverting vandalism on the subject article. Vandalism is very frustrating, I know. It pisses me off too. But we also have a policy called No Personal Attacks. Saying to the vandal "Grow up and go make some friends instead of vandalizing Wikipedia, what a sad loser you are" is likely to be seen by many as such. What would be disappointing is you landing in the same kind of hot water the vandal deserves, so basically, it's really best to just revert and leave the normal courteous warning on their talk page. And if they get enough warnings, their access will be zapped. Thanks for your time and your anti-vandalism. Stefen Tower_{s among the rest!} ^{Gab • Gruntwerk} 05:12, 22 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Ok. Indiana6724 (talk) 05:26, 22 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

DYK for Circle Tower

On 8 June 2024, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Circle Tower, which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that the Circle Tower (pictured), an Art Deco building in Indianapolis, features ziggurat-like upper floors? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Circle Tower. You are welcome to check how many pageviews the nominated article or articles got while on the front page (here's how, Circle Tower), and the hook may be added to the statistics page after its run on the Main Page has completed. Finally, if you know of an interesting fact from another recently created article, then please feel free to suggest it on the Did you know talk page.

Concern regarding Draft:List of fiction set in Indianapolis

Hello, Indiana6724. This is a bot-delivered message letting you know that Draft:List of fiction set in Indianapolis, a page you created, has not been edited in at least 5 months.

Your draft article, Draft:List of fiction set in Indianapolis

Hello, Indiana6724. It has been over six months since you last edited the Articles for Creation submission or draft page you started, "List of fiction set in Indianapolis".

In accordance with our policy that Wikipedia is not for the indefinite hosting of material, the draft has been deleted. When you plan on working on it further and you wish to retrieve it, you can request its undeletion. An administrator will, in most cases, restore the submission so you can continue to work on it.

Thank you for your submission to Wikipedia, and happy editing. Liz ^{Read! Talk!} 23:40, 24 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

A barnstar for you!

		The World War Barnstar
		I know I heavily dissected the article at Frederick Douglas Williams (lawyer), but you were bold, took the initiative in creating it, and helped out a fellow editor in doing so. That's commendable. *TheTechnician27* (Talk page) 16:52, 26 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

That said

The more appropriate route to creating an article written by a brand-new user in the future (especially one with a close connection to the subject) is generally going to be WP:AFC. They're heavily backlogged right now to be sure, but this article did have major problems that an AfC review would've caught. This article was a WP:DRAFT, and the proper means for getting it created would arguably have been to submit it for an AfC review, not to create it outright. It's still nice to see editors taking initiative; I also just want you to be informed since I also didn't know these things at one point.
