On 21 February 2021 you made a comment at Talk:Antimatter weapon about refocusing the article on fiction. I just removed most of the real-life content as original research, which was largely unreferenced and for which I could not find a single reliable source. You can improve the finctional content now, provided you do not make an indiscriminate WP:IPC list. –LaundryPizza03 (dc̄) 06:43, 24 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Arlo Barnes,

I saw your work on articles related to anarchism and wanted to say hello, as I work in the topic area too. If you haven't already, you might want to watch our noticeboard for Wikipedia's coverage of anarchism, which is a great place to ask questions, collaborate, discuss style/structure precedent, and stay informed about content related to anarchism. Take a look for yourself!

We also have a live cleanup drive, if you'd like to participate, and a mailing list if you'd like to be notified of upcoming edit drives.

Feel free to say hi on my talk page and let me know if these links were helpful (or at least interesting). Hope to see you around. czar 22:28, 8 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for uploading File:Circle-A on flag of England.webp. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described in section F5 of the criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. --B-bot (talk) 18:23, 14 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hello - on my talk page, you said, "You reverted my edit with the message "A talk page is not a blog or social media site for nonsense", but I don't see what's nonsensical about indicating a topic-relevant primary source about which secondary sources suitable for mainspace might be found. Isn't that what talk pages are useful for?"

I reverted this edit because you did not follow WP:TALK guidelines to propose a specific improvement to the article, with a WP:RS source. The rule is "article talk pages exist solely to discuss how to improve articles; they are not for general discussion about the subject of the article."

1. there was no proposal for improvement offered
2. there was no WP:RS source provided
3. the commercial website you provided suggests you believe it is a reliable source of information about adaptogens (it is not; it's spam nonsense) and is WP:PROMO, i.e., the main intent of the website is to sell products. Zefr (talk) 02:40, 6 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I don't believe it's a reliable source or I would have put it in the article. But then, I think an 'adaptogen' is a meaningless woo-marketing buzzword, and the site is an example of a particular bee buzzing that tune. The fact that a famous person is involved is really the only reason I think it is a notable development as far as the subject of the article is concerned. Arlo James Barnes 03:04, 6 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Mostly agree. Your response indicates you saw the conspicuous woo nature of the website, but your comment about Anderson isn't a basis for notability. I don't think there's any scientific training in her career history that would indicate she knows anything about adaptogens or nootropics (or why they're actually not effective), other than being gullible and selfish enough to use the terms for deceiving her fans and customers to market her products.

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed. Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reasons left by Pokelego999 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 draft's references do not show that the subject qualifies for a Wikipedia article. In summary, the draft needs multiple published sources that are:

• in-depth (not just passing mentions about the subject)
• reliable
• secondary
• independent of the subject
  

Make sure you add references that meet these criteria before resubmitting. 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:

Lack of reliable citations that establish why this subject is notable. I can see some potential here, but there are no sources in the article actively demonstrating that. Please expand this with reliable sources on topics such as its history, influence, etc to show how notability is established.

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:Cinema of New Mexico 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.
