Citation styles

Per WP:CITEVAR ↗, on the English Wikipedia citation styles generally should not be changed, and certainly not without gaining consensus on the associated article talk page in advance. MrOllie (talk) 00:41, 3 October 2023 (UTC)

A lengthy welcome

Hi 薔薇騎士団. Welcome to Wikipedia. I hope you don't mind if I share some of my thoughts on starting out as a new editor on Wikipedia: If I could get editors in your situation to follow just one piece of advice, it would be this: Learn Wikipedia by working only on non-contentious topics until you have a feel for the normal editing process and the policies that usually come up when editing casually. You'll find editing to be fun, easy, and rewarding. The rare disputes are resolved ↗ quickly and easily in collaboration ↗.

Working on biographical information about living persons is far more difficult. Wikipedia's Biographies of living persons policy ↗ requires strict adherence to multiple content policies, and applies to all information about living persons including talk pages.

If you have a relationship with the topics you want to edit, then you will need to review Wikipedia's Conflict of interest policy ↗, which may require you to disclose your relationship and restrict your editing depending upon how you are affiliated with the subject matter. Regardless, editing in a manner that promotes an entity or viewpoint over others can appear to be detrimental to the purpose ↗ of Wikipedia and the neutrality ↗ required in articles.

Some topic areas within Wikipedia have special editing restrictions ↗ that apply to all editors. It's best to avoid these topics until you are extremely familiar with all relevant policies and guidelines ↗.

If you work from reliable ↗, independent ↗ sources, you shouldn't go far wrong. WP:RSP ↗ and WP:RSN ↗ are helpful in determining if a source is reliable.

If you find yourself in a disagreement with another editor, it's best to discuss ↗ the matter on the relevant talk page ↗.

I hope you find some useful information in all this, and welcome again. --Hipal (talk) 22:54, 9 October 2023 (UTC)
:The parts you deleted in the Wagyu article were not added by me. I am writing in accordance with WIkipedia policy. Thank you for your understanding.--薔薇騎士団 (talk) 23:17, 9 October 2023 (UTC)
::My apologies. I should have been more careful with my edit summaries to indicate the editors or timeframe.
::I'm concerned that you're building upon a poor article, and adding material that doesn't meet policies, such as https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wagyu&diff=1176945299&oldid=1176648711 ↗ --Hipal (talk) 20:11, 10 October 2023 (UTC)
:::Thank you for your comment. Those Wagyu brands are written based on the source of the Japanese Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries Agency website. They are publicly approved and I do not believe it is advertising to introduce them, but if it violates any policy or guideline of the English Wikipedia, I will remove them. If you don't mind, could you tell me which policy or guideline is being violated? 薔薇騎士団 (talk) 01:21, 11 October 2023 (UTC)
::::Take a look at WP:NOT ↗, WP:POV ↗, and MOS:LIST ↗. Generally, bulleted lists like that are rare. Rarer still without an independent source to demonstrate encyclopedic value and weight.
::::To fix it, I'd probably put it into prose format, remove the entries that don't have their own Wikipedia article, reword to make it clear we're only presenting a partial list, and keep the reference so that readers can find the full listing. --Hipal (talk) 02:14, 11 October 2023 (UTC)
:::::I understood. I will remove the relevant part later. If there are any other advertising parts, please point them out to me. If not, I will remove the advertising tag in a week. 薔薇騎士団 (talk) 03:32, 11 October 2023 (UTC)
::::::Please don't remove the tag. Review the article completely against policy first, then start a discussion after everything you find has been fixed.
::::::And please use descriptive edit summaries ↗ to help other editors work with you. --Hipal (talk) 16:37, 11 October 2023 (UTC)
:::::::Understood. However, you added that tag, so if you think there are other advertising parts, please point them out on Wagyu's talk page. Then we can discuss whether those parts are advertisement-like and make corrections or additions if necessary. 薔薇騎士団 (talk) 01:32, 12 October 2023 (UTC)
::::::::I pointed out one. I've asked you to review the article. If you don't want to review the article, then best keep the tag until someone comes along who will do so. That's the purpose of the tags, to get the attention of editors to help. --Hipal (talk) 16:26, 12 October 2023 (UTC)

Thank you for your contributions

Thank you for contributing the Kon'e ↗ article, it is very good. Was this a translation?

A while ago I assisted with a similar translation of the article for Harima no Kuni Fudoki ↗ that you may be interested in. <span style="font-size:small;"><span style="font-family:monospace;">'''David Palmer'''//</span>cloventt</span> <sup>(talk)</sup> 03:45, 18 July 2025 (UTC)

Wikipedia:Destubathon of the Americas ↗

You are invited to participate in the '''Destubathon of the Americas ↗''', a contest/editathon which will run from May 1 to May 31. The goal is to destub as many of our 475,000+ stubs for the Americas (from Alaska down to Chile) as possible. A good chance to have fun in expanding many of our old stale stubs and win up to £2000 ($2680) in Amazon vouchers for expanding stub articles. Sign up in the Contestants/participants section on the contest page if interested. Even if not interested in prizes you are still warmly welcome to participate in it as an editathon! Hopefully we can achieve something significant in the month of May together! ♦ <span style="font-variant:small-caps;color:#aba67e">''Dr. Blofeld''</span> 17:47, 15 April 2026 (UTC)
