Ve'onedre Mitchell

Heya! Unlike the IP address who commented recently I would suggest adding a few more sources to your draft on Ve'ondre Mitchell - although I unfortunately don't have enough time to add them in, I've found some sources for you to consider! As advance warning, none of these are listed as known reliable sources, but to my eyes they look pretty good. If you're unsure, please feel free to make use of the reliable sources noticeboard - they love checking out sources. Interviews are not usually counted as reliable sources, but you can use them for biographical information like age, place of birth, etc.

HeraldNet: [1]

Paper: [2]

Kiro: [3]

Teen Vogue: [4]

It might also be that it's too soon for this article to make it out of draft format, but if that's the case then keep an eye out for more sources and when the time comes you'll be ready. Best of luck and happy editing! StartGrammarTime (talk) 08:34, 28 March 2024 (UTC)

Sophia Howe

Hi Rylee Amelia. Thank you for your work on Sophia Howe. Another editor, Rosiestep, has reviewed it as part of new pages patrol and left the following comment:

Hello. I enjoyed reading this article but I am confused about the references. Do you have further information available for each, such as author name, book/magazine name, year, and/or URL? Thank you.

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

Rosiestep (talk) 14:08, 13 August 2024 (UTC)

@Rosiestep: Thank you for reaching out! For each source that I cited, I copied sources that were listed on other articles for certain pieces of related information. For example, I cited Heathecoat, p 165 because that was how it was listed in the reference page for Richard Howe, 1st Earl Howe. This citation appeared to reference his lineage and specifically his connection to Sophie Howe. I understand that some of these sources may have been unclear, and I apologize for any confusion. I will admit that the Chichester citation is especially unclear, but that was how I saw it cited under William Howe, 5th Viscount Howe's page. I wish I had the time to look into these sources more so I make these citations better for the specific circumstances they are being used in. I will also look into finding better sources if any others are available online. Rylee Amelia (talk) 15:35, 13 August 2024 (UTC)

Hi again, and thanks for looking at the sources issues in the Sophia Howe biography. --Rosiestep (talk) 15:59, 13 August 2024 (UTC)

• Regarding your citation named as "Heathecote, p. 165", I looked at the page you mention, Richard Howe, 1st Earl Howe, and I don't find "Heathecote" at all, but I do find a full citation for "Heathcote" in the Sources section of that biography, so please add it to Howe's biography.
• Regarding your citation named as "Chichester", I looked at the page you mention, William Howe, 5th Viscount Howe, and found a full citation for it in the Bibliography section of that biography, so please add it to Howe's biography.
• Regarding your citation named as "Ziegler, Phillip. William IV, Cassel Biographies 1971, pp. 197–201.", can you provide any more information about it as I don't find any information about a publication by Ziegler in 1971, nor do I find anything at all regarding "Cassel Biographies". Thanks!

@Rosiestep: I have added a sources page to better cite the first two citations. However, I couldn't find anymore information on the Zeigler passage beyond what was in the reference page for Richard Curzon-Howe, 1st Earl Howe. I assumed that this was a valuable source for information pertaining to Sophia's son, but this may need to be reassessed. I apologize for the issues I created. As a newer editor, I'm still constantly learning and improving how I create my articles. I would never intentionally plagiarize or spread information, and I hope you didn't interpret my behavior as such. Thank you for being helpful and quick to reach out! Rylee Amelia (talk) 16:42, 13 August 2024 (UTC)

No, no; I didn't interpret your referencing style as being intentionally problematic; I simply noted it to be incomplete. I think with the edits you just made and the ones I've added a moment ago, the sourcing is resolved. Plus, I hope, you learned a bit about what to include in a source (author, book name, year, etc.) and to dig deep to find it when is is possible to do so. Thanks for what you're doing around here! --Rosiestep (talk) 16:56, 13 August 2024 (UTC)

New message to Rylee Amelia

Please consider starting individual talk page discussions to ensure the addition of the categories are both verifiable and verified within the articles themselves. Also, please do not readd to articles when you are reverted without establishing consensus, per WP:ONUS Thank you. Remsense ‥ 论 21:31, 18 October 2024 (UTC)

I understand the need for consensus. Personally, I felt that the category I added was valid since the article does contain discussions related to it and there is a separate article providing more detail. Should I add a topic to the talk page? Rylee Amelia (talk) 21:41, 18 October 2024 (UTC)

I think you should slow down until you have a better handle on how WP:EGRS works. Mason (talk) 03:25, 19 October 2024 (UTC)

Introduction to contentious topics

You have recently edited a page related to gender-related disputes or controversies or people associated with them, a topic designated as contentious. This is a brief introduction to contentious topics and does not imply that there are any issues with your editing.

A special set of rules applies to certain topic areas, which are referred to as contentious topics. These are specially designated topics that tend to attract more persistent disruptive editing than the rest of the project and have been designated as contentious topics by the Arbitration Committee. When editing a contentious topic, Wikipedia’s norms and policies are more strictly enforced, and Wikipedia administrators have special powers in order to reduce disruption to the project.

Within contentious topics, editors should edit carefully and constructively, refrain from disrupting the encyclopedia, and:

• adhere to the purposes of Wikipedia;
• comply with all applicable policies and guidelines;
• follow editorial and behavioural best practice;
• comply with any page restrictions in force within the area of conflict; and
• refrain from gaming the system.

Editors are advised to err on the side of caution if unsure whether making a particular edit is consistent with these expectations. If you have any questions about contentious topics procedures you may ask them at the arbitration clerks' noticeboard or you may learn more about this contentious topic here. You may also choose to note which contentious topics you know about by using the {{Ctopics/aware}} template.
