As i see the article was already created just yesterday https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Lichenologist
I guess it was thanks to the draft. --LeonardoSmi (talk) 09:55, 23 May 2022 (UTC)

Annales de Paléontologie ↗



Hello LeonardoSmi -- Thanks for submitting this article. I've corrected some details; see the edit summaries. It doesn't seem to be gold open access for example. I'm also concerned that the Q1 ranking is unlikely to be true for a journal with an impact factor below 1; on a quick scan this doesn't seem to be in the sources you cite and I wonder if it is a cut-and-paste error? Please check and supply a working source for it. You might like to add the selective indexing services that the journal appears in, as this is the main way that the journals project assess notability. Regards, Espresso Addict <small>(talk)</small> 03:53, 29 May 2022 (UTC)

:Hi, thank you. You are right in questioning Q1, it is Q3, sorry my mistake I forgot to change it. Nevertheless, I think it is gold open access: https://www.elsevier.com/journals/annales-de-paleontologie/0753-3969/open-access-options --LeonardoSmi (talk) 13:35, 29 May 2022 (UTC)
::Thanks for adding the indexing. From our article gold open access ↗ requires ''all'' content to be open, which isn't the case here. I think it might be best classed as a hybrid open-access journal ↗, though these days that's really the norm to the extent of being hardly worth stating. Regards, Espresso Addict <small>(talk)</small> 00:18, 30 May 2022 (UTC)
Ok, thank you. I removed GOA, think it isn't necessary to mention it.LeonardoSmi (talk) 13:56, 30 May 2022 (UTC)

Journal articles



Hi, thanks for your efforts in improving articles on academic journals, we can always use more editors in this area. Tips on how to create good articles can be found in our journal article writing guide ↗. Also, I see that you're adding "h" values and SCImago rankings to articles. This is stuff that we usually leave out. There are many ranking services (the best know GScholar, Scopus, Journal Citation Report, but there are more) and many different metrics (the Journal Citation Reports alone have 5 or 6) and it is impossible to keep all of that updated in thousands of journal articles. In practice, like it or not (I don't), the only metric that journal authors and readers are interested in is the Clarivate impact factor, so that's the only metric that we list. As you'll see when going through journal articles, you'll see that even this single metric is often not up to date (and soon the 2021 IFs will be released). <!-- Template:Unsigned --><span class="autosigned" style="font-size:85%;">—&nbsp;Preceding unsigned ↗ comment added by Randykitty (talk • contribs ↗) 14:26, 1 June 2022 (UTC)</span> <!--Autosigned by SineBot-->

Journal of Eukaryotic Microbiology ↗ moved to draftspace



An article you recently created, Journal of Eukaryotic Microbiology ↗, is not suitable as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable ↗, independent sources ↗. <small>(? ↗)</small> Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability ↗ is of central importance ↗ on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace ↗ (with a prefix of "<code>Draft:</code>" before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline ↗ and thus is ready for mainspace, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page. <span style="color: #126180">'''~Styyx'''</span><sup><span style="color: #24d63f">''Talk''</span><span style="color:red">''?''</span></sup> 17:52, 4 July 2022 (UTC)

Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia ↗! Thank you for your contributions ↗; however, ''please'' remember the essential rule of respecting copyright ↗s. '''Edits to Wikipedia, such as your edit to the page :Internal Medicine Journal ↗, may not contain material from copyrighted sources unless used with permission.'''

Content that does not comply with this legal rule must be removed. For more information on this, see:

November 2022


25px|alt=Information icon ↗ Hi, and thank you for your contributions ↗ to Wikipedia. It appears that you tried to give a page a different title by copying its content and pasting either the same content, or an edited version of it, into :International Journal of Educational Technology in Higher Education ↗. This is known as a "cut-and-paste move ↗", and it is undesirable because it splits the page history ↗, which is legally required for attribution ↗. Instead, the software used by Wikipedia has a feature that allows pages to be ''moved'' to a new title together with their edit history.

In most cases for registered users, once your account is four days old and has ten edits ↗, you should be able to move an article yourself using the "Move" tab ↗ at the top of the page (the tab may be hidden in a dropdown menu ↗ for you). This both preserves the page history intact and automatically creates a redirect ↗ from the old title to the new. If you cannot perform a particular page move yourself this way (e.g. because a page already exists at the target title), please follow the instructions at requested moves ↗ to have it moved by someone else. Also, if there are any other pages that you moved by copying and pasting, even if it was a long time ago, please list them at Wikipedia:Requests for history merge ↗. Thank you. <!-- Template:uw-c&pmove --> Hey man im josh (talk) 16:45, 10 November 2022 (UTC)

Thank you, it was done by mistake, I created redirect, cannot move it as new article is already created. If I should do something else and ask for deleteion somewhere, please write me, from the above link I m not sure what should I do.LeonardoSmi (talk) 12:19, 11 November 2022 (UTC)

Hi, I am really sorry, at first I didn't know about this function and so I just checked the message, but didn't realize it in my future edit. Now I will be aware of it. Thank you for repair.LeonardoSmi (talk) 17:16, 19 December 2022 (UTC)

Hello, LeonardoSmi. It has been over six months since you last edited the Articles for Creation ↗ submission or Draft ↗ page you started, "Lichengolist ↗".

In accordance with our policy that Wikipedia is not for the indefinite hosting of material deemed unsuitable for the encyclopedia mainspace ↗, 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.

Proposed deletion ↗ of Preprints.org ↗



Hello, LeonardoSmi

Welcome to Wikipedia! I edit here too, under the username IceBergYYC, and I thank you for your contributions.

I wanted to let you know, however, that I've proposed ↗ an article that you started, Preprints.org ↗, for deletion because it meets one or more of our deletion criteria ↗, and I don't think that it is suitable for inclusion in the encyclopedia. The particular issue can be found in the notice that is now visible at the top of the article ↗.

If you wish to contest the deletion:

# Edit the page ↗
# Remove the text that looks like this: <code><nowiki>{{proposed deletion/dated...}}</nowiki></code>
# Click the {{Clickable button 2|Publish changes|color=blue|link=no}} button.

If you object to the article's deletion, please remember to '''explain''' why you think the article should be kept on the article's talk page ↗ and '''improve''' the page to address the issues raised in the deletion notice. Otherwise, it may be deleted later by other means ↗.

If you have any questions, please leave a comment here and prepend it with <code><nowiki>{{Re|</nowiki>IceBergYYC<nowiki>}}</nowiki></code>. And remember to sign your reply with <code><nowiki>~~~~</nowiki></code>. Thanks!

Hi, I've edited and created some preprint articles and think this is a big preprint server. In my POV, it is similar to the case with journals. You have sources such as databases, and it's ok.

See Research Square, which I also created, has an advertising tag. So I tried to improve both. The problem is that for preprints and journals you need primary sources (databases).LeonardoSmi (talk) 10:16, 29 August 2023 (UTC)
