Hello, Matthewvetter, and Welcome to Wikipedia!

I'm Steven, a Wikipedia editor like you, and I noticed that you made a helpful change to :Occupy movement ↗. Thank you for your contributions ↗. Wikipedia is a community of volunteers ↗ who want to build a great free encyclopedia, and we need your help. We have five simple rules ↗, but other than that, we just need people like you to be bold ↗ and edit.

If you have questions of any kind, feel free to ask me on my Wikipedia talk page or by email ↗.

Best regards, Steven Walling • talk 05:53, 29 November 2011 (UTC)

Wikipedia Ambassadors update

Hi! You're getting this message because you are or have been a Wikipedia Ambassador. A new term is beginning for the United States and Canada Education Programs, and I wanted to give you an update on some important new information if you're interested in continuing your work this term as a Wikipedia Ambassador.

You may have heard a reference to a transition the education program is going through. This is the last term that the Wikimedia Foundation will directly run the U.S. and Canada programs; beginning in June, a proposed thematic organization is likely to take over organizing the program. You can read more about the proposal here ↗.

Another major change in the program will take effect immediately. Beginning this term, a new MediaWiki education extension will replace all course pages and Ambassador lists. (See Wikipedia:Course pages ↗ and Help:Education Program extension ↗ for more details.) Included in the extension are ''online volunteer'' and ''campus volunteer'' user rights, which let you create and edit course pages and sign up as an ambassador for a particular course.

'''''If you would like to continue serving as a Wikipedia Ambassador — even if you do not support a class this term — you must create an ambassador profile.''''' If you're no longer interested in being a Wikipedia Ambassador, you don't need to do anything.

;Please do these steps as soon as possible
First, you need the relevant user rights for Online and/or Campus Ambassadors. (If you are an admin, you can grant the rights yourself ↗, for you as well as other ambassadors.) Just post your rights request here ↗, and we'll get you set up as quickly as possible.

Once you've got the ambassador rights, please set up at a Campus and/or Online Ambassador profile. You can do so at:

Special:CampusAmbassadorProfile ↗

Special:OnlineAmbassadorProfile ↗

Going forward, the lists of Ambassadors at Special:CampusAmbassadors ↗ and Special:OnlineAmbassadors ↗ will be the official roster of who is an active Ambassador. If you would like to be an Ambassador but not ready to serve this term, you can un-check the option in your profile to publicly list it (which will remove your profile from the list).

After that, you can sign on to support courses. The list of courses will be at Special:Courses ↗. (By default, this lists "Current" courses, but you can change the Status filter to "Planned" to see courses for this term that haven't reached their listed start date yet.)

As this is the first term we have used the extension, we know there will be some bugs, and we know the feature set is not as rich as it could be. (A big wave of improvements is already in the pipeline. And if you know MediaWiki and could help with code review, we'd love to have your help!) Please reach out to me (Sage Ross) ↗ with any complaints, bug reports, and feature suggestions. The basic features of the extension are documented at Wikipedia:Course pages ↗, and you can see a tutorial for setting up and using them here ↗.

;Communication and keeping up to date
In the past, the Education Program has had a pretty fragmented set of communication channels. We're trying to fix that. These are the recommended places to discuss and stay up-to-date on the education program:
# The education noticeboard ↗ has become the main on-wiki location for discussion of the Education Program. You can post there about broad education program issues as well as issues with individual courses.
# The Ambassadors Announce email list ↗ is a very low-traffic announcements list of important information all Ambassadors need to be aware of. We encourage all Ambassadors (and other interested Wikipedians) to subscribe to the list; follow the instructions on the link to add your email address.
# If you use IRC regularly, or need to try to reach someone immediately, the {{freenode|wikipedia-en-ambassadors}} IRC channel is the place to find me and fellow Ambassadors.

;Ambassador training and resources
We now have an online training for Ambassadors ↗, which is intended to be both an orientation about the Wikipedia Ambassador role for newcomers and the manual for how to do the role. (There are parallel trainings for students ↗ and for educators ↗ as well.)

Please go through the training if you feel like you need a refresher on how a typical class is supposed to go and where the Ambassadors fit in, or if you want to review and help improve it. If there's something you'd like to see added, or other suggestions you have for it, feel free to edit the training and/or leave feedback. A primer on setting up and using course pages ↗ is included in the educators' training.

The Resources page ↗ of the training is the main place for Ambassador-related resources. If there's something you think is important as a resource that's not on there, please add it.

Finally, whether or not you work with any classes this term, I encourage you to post entries to the Trophy Case ↗ whenever you see excellent work from students or if you have great examples from past semesters. And, as always, let students (and other editors!) know when they do things well; a little WikiLove goes a long way!

Wikipedia talk:Articles for creation/Hollis Summers ↗ concern

Hi there, I'm HasteurBot. I just wanted to let you know that Wikipedia talk:Articles for creation/Hollis Summers ↗, a page you created has not been edited in at least 180 days. The Articles for Creation space is not an indefinite storage location for content that is not appropriate for articlespace.
If your submission is not edited soon, it could be nominated for deletion. If you would like to attempt to save it, you will need to improve it.

Your article submission Hollis Summers ↗

48px|left|alt=|link= ↗

Hello Matthewvetter. It has been over six months since you last edited your article submission, entitled Hollis Summers ↗.

The page will shortly be deleted. If you plan on editing the page to address the issues raised when it was declined and resubmit it, simply {{edit|Wikipedia talk:Articles for creation/Hollis Summers|edit the submission}} and remove the {{tlc|db-afc}} or {{tlc|db-g13}} code. Please note, however, that Articles for Creation is not for the indefinite hosting of material deemed unsuitable for the encyclopedia mainspace.

If your submission has already been deleted by the time you get there, and you want to retrieve it, copy this code: <code><nowiki>{{subst:Refund/G13|</nowiki>Wikipedia talk:Articles for creation/Hollis Summers<nowiki>}}</nowiki></code>, paste it in the edit box at this link ↗, click "Save", and an administrator will in most cases undelete the submission.

Thanks for your submission to Wikipedia, and happy editing.  HasteurBot (talk) 09:20, 10 September 2013 (UTC)

Writing Course

Hi Matthew,

Thank you for inviting me to be an online ambassador for your writing course. I would normally be glad to accept, but the specific time you need reviews is going to be an exceptionally busy time for me outside of Wikipedia, most notably because of a wedding I am standing in and helping prepare for in early August. For this reason, I will have to decline. I hope you are successful in securing two online ambassadors for the course.

Wikiproject Appalachia

Hi, Matthew.

I'm pleased to see that Wikipedia's Appalachia articles are going to be a focus for some student attention. Several years ago, WikiProject Appalachia ↗ was organized as a focus for cooperation (and hand-wringing, at times) in improving Wikipedia coverage of topics related to Appalachia. A couple of the students seem to have found their way to the wikiproject talk page ↗.

I invite you and the students involved in this activity to interact on the wikiproject talk page, review past discussions, look at resources like most-viewed pages ↗ in the wikiproject, and otherwise engage with project members. (Maybe some students will want to join the Wikiproject and continue contributing after the class ends!). --Orlady (talk) 17:27, 29 July 2014 (UTC)

Hi [reply to|Orlady]! Thanks so much! Wikiproject Appalachia has been such a useful source for. I will definitely encourage students to get involved! Matthewvetter (talk) 13:16, 11 August 2014 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of Women in Jazz(festival)

left|link=|48px| ↗

The article Women in Jazz(festival) ↗ has been proposed for deletion ↗ because of the following concern:
:'''The article needs to be filled in and filled out. As it stands, there is nothing here.'''

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons ↗.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{Tlc|proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary ↗ or on the article's talk page ↗.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{Tlc|proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process ↗, but other deletion process ↗es exist. In particular, the speedy deletion ↗ process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion ↗ allows discussion to reach consensus ↗ for deletion.

For legal reasons, Wikipedia cannot accept copyrighted material, including text or images from print publications or from other websites, without an appropriate and verifiable license.

You may use external websites or publications as a source of ''information'', but not as a source of ''content'', such as sentences or images—you must write using your own words. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators '''will be blocked from editing ↗'''.  Justlettersandnumbers (talk) 19:29, 20 May 2015 (UTC)
:Hi! I understand you are using Wikipedia as a teaching aid. The first thing your students will need to know here is that we do not tolerate copyright violations. As an aid to identifying those, we often use a couple of tools, this ↗ and this ↗. The latter gives very clear results when a page is compared with a known or suspected source, the former scans more widely. Had you known of them, either would have told you that the content added to :Harvey Milk High School ↗ was lifted pretty much word-for-word from the two newspaper articles cited as sources; a quick visual inspection of the student's sandbox would have told you the same. Your re-addition of the copyvio to the article after it had been very correctly removed was not acceptable; please make sure you do not do that again. You were also edit-warring at that page, which again is not acceptable behaviour here. You could now help the project by checking all contributions made by any student of yours, and completely removing any other copyright violations. If you have questions about this and ask them here, I should see that you have done so, and will answer if I can. Justlettersandnumbers (talk) 19:44, 20 May 2015 (UTC)
::Thanks Justlettersandnumbers. I am aware of the policies on copyright. I do spend considerable time talking with my students about this. Of course, students sometimes still misunderstand. I apologize for adding some of the material back. The student in question was also being censured for adding queer/lgbtq content and I was trying to help ensure that his first experience editing wasn't one of complete redaction and erasure (when not all of his contribution was problematic). In my attempt to protect my student, I may have gotten a bit zealous. Apologies for that. Thanks for working with us to improve the article. Matthewvetter (talk) 20:30, 27 June 2015 (UTC)

Change in your user rights

Your Wikipedia account was previously granted a user right called "course instructor" by the Wiki Education Foundation ↗. That right enabled you to create a course page through the EducationProgram MediaWiki extension. Starting in fall 2015, the Wiki Education Foundation has discontinued its use of this extension. Going forward, users should create course pages through the Wiki Education Foundation website. That application is more user-friendly, and any content is automatically mirrored to Wikipedia. To prevent confusion, we'll be removing your "course instructor" user right, as it is not needed with the new system. This is simply a notification of the technical change to your account. No action is needed from you at this time.

If you plan on teaching with Wikipedia for the fall 2015 term, please email me (helaine{{@}}wikiedu.org) for instructions how to create your next course page using our new system. --Helaine (Wiki Ed) (talk), sent by MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 02:34, 21 July 2015 (UTC)

It's not the job of WP editors to rewrite unusable student contribs

Copied here from the student page where you asked:https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk%3AMs976312&action=historysubmit&type=revision&diff=713542761&oldid=713540761 ↗

::Hi Matt, looking over your talk page I see this has come up before, so I'm going to copy this there as well. My priority is the 'pedia, not test edits by students. I've usually cut students more slack, but if the edits aren't improvements, the student status of the editor is not a reason to keep them in the articles. Recently the Indigenous articles have been hit by quite a few edits that show a lack of understanding of the subject matter. In many cases it is clear that the student editor didn't even read the article they are trying to change. There have been many copyvios. As I said above, it is not our job to rewrite this stuff. Either the students learn to function like any Wikipedian or they don't edit. The 'pedia is more important than their course grade. - '''CorbieV''' ☊ ↗ ☼ ↗ 17:17, 4 April 2016 (UTC)

::: Hi{{Replyto|CorbieVreccan}} I think you are misunderstanding my comment. I'm not worried about the student's course grade, and certainly not placing more value on that than the content or quality of the new content being added. Rather, I am interested in an encyclopedia that might work with novice editors. That's all I am asking, is that you work more with the student rather than reverting their edits wholesale. In any case, this student has expressed a desire to work with you, so she will be trying to re-write her additions with the suggestions you made about tense. Maybe you can use this as an opportunity to collaborate and even teach a newcomer to the Wikipedia community. I would never ask WP editors to rewrite student content and I am slightly disappointed by your heading line. New editors are also editors, not only students. Thanks! Matthewvetter (talk) 17:50, 4 April 2016 (UTC)

::::Matt, we help out new editors every day here. But everyone has their limits. We can't individually tutor every single one who messes up an article. Like any new user, they need to read the policies and other links we post for them. In many cases it is clear they are not doing so. Now and then a student editor does a good job and becomes a Wikipedian. But lately we've just seen too many who are clearly only trying to get their grade and don't care one bit about the quality or integrity of the 'pedia. This is a serious problem and if you haven't noticed it in the areas where you work, I suggest you look at some of the other edits that are coming from these courses. If some of the editors you've responded to sound annoyed... Matt, they have every reason to be. Articles are being damaged, and when you champion edits that are unusable, it makes it harder on everyone. - '''CorbieV''' ☊ ↗ ☼ ↗ 22:47, 5 April 2016 (UTC)
::::: Hi{{Replyto|CorbieVreccan}}. Thank you for you your response. Again, I am not asking anyone to "individually tutor every single" student. I am a bit confused on why you continue to repeat that idea. All I was asking, originally, was whether it was possible to work with student edits rather than reverting them wholesale. If you have no interest in doing that, I can't convince you to collaborate with novices. I'm sorry you have had negative experiences with Wiki Ed in the past. If there are specific articles "being damaged" that I can help improve, let me know. You can email me at vetter@ohio.edu. I am not trying to "champion edits that are unusuable," but rather to help new editors have something of a voice. Matthewvetter (talk) 12:57, 6 April 2016 (UTC)

25px|alt=Information icon ↗ Welcome to Wikipedia ↗. Everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia. However, talk pages are meant to be a record of a discussion; deleting or editing legitimate comments, as you did at :Talk:Indigenous Peoples of North America ↗, is considered bad practice ↗, even if you meant well. Even making spelling and grammatical corrections in others' comments is generally frowned upon, as it tends to irritate the users whose comments you are correcting. Take a look at the welcome page ↗ to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia.

:Hi{{Replyto|CorbieVreccan}}- Thank you for your welcome. I am confused by your advice about editing comments on :Talk:Indigenous Peoples of North America ↗, though.. The edit you refer to is simply the removal of a student assignment working with Wiki Ed and was performed from the Wiki Ed dashboard that give instructors permissions to add and remove student assignments. The student in question did not end up working with this article, so it doesn't make sense to leave that assignment. I am posting this on your Talk page as well. This is beginning to feel spiteful. Matthewvetter (talk) 19:26, 6 April 2016 (UTC)
::From here, your interactions with other editors are looking to me like a serious case of WP:IDONTHEARYOU ↗. There have been a handful of incidents now where other editors have explained something to you, and you respond in a manner that seems you did not read their explanations. You again ask the same questions that have already been answered for you in multiple places. This has the effect of wasting editors' time and causing annoyance and friction with people who would rather be doing productive work. You still don't seem to realize that the "article" you refer tohttps://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Talk:Indigenous_Peoples_of_North_America&oldid=712401720 ↗ is a ''redirect'', and that trying to place an article there would be going against WP consensus. This again shows you are not paying attention. Rather than striking the text and disabling the template, you removed someone's edit that already had a reply, rendering the talk page nonsensical, so I informed you of the policy and provided the diffs. Again, this was all explained to you already. You need to get a grasp of basic policy because right now your actions are not helping the 'pedia or the editors here. You don't need to have the same conversation in three or four places, by the way. - '''CorbieV''' ☊ ↗ ☼ ↗ 19:50, 6 April 2016 (UTC)
:::Hi{{Replyto|CorbieVreccan}}-By all means, please don't waste your time on my talk page anymore. I don't find your explanations especially helpful, rather they tend to be condescending and hostile. I was trying to remove the student assignment from the redirect, as explained above, because the student did not do editing work on page. This is performed from the Wiki Ed dashboard, which does not show the previous edits. Please wp:assumegoodfaith ↗. If we are wasting your time, don't engage. As I said on the article on gender roles, the student has given up on trying to work with the particular editor culture of that article. Thank you. Matthewvetter (talk) 20:08, 6 April 2016 (UTC)

Women in Red

Hi there, Matthewvetter, and welcome to Women in Red. It's good to have someone genuinely interested in education and in attracting new Wikipedians as a member of our project.

I figured I"d tel you this here but your signature doesn't necessarily comply with the signature policy which states "A customised signature should make it easy to identify your username." which yours doesn't since it's "DarthVetter". Just figured I'd let you know. ― Blaze WolfTalkBlaze Wolf#6545 16:05, 30 March 2023 (UTC)

:Also there was an unclosed small tag on your talk page which was screwing with the formatting so I fixed it for you. ― Blaze WolfTalkBlaze Wolf#6545 16:07, 30 March 2023 (UTC)
:Hi @Blaze Wolf Thanks for the suggestion! Will change it right away so you can find me easier. ; ) Also, I'm working with the student who is editing Clarinet ↗ to find some better sources. If they post again, will you give us a little time to improve the existing content instead of immediate revert? This would be aligned with WP:NOBITING ↗. Thanks - Matthewvetter (talk) 20:20, 30 March 2023 (UTC)

:::@Blaze Wolf thanks Matthewvetter (talk) 11:53, 31 March 2023 (UTC)

I'm really not sure leaving it be will help in this case. I appreciate the enthusiasm, but really, very little of what is being added is in the encyclopedic tone we expect (NOTHOWTO has been cited correctly in some of the reverts), and adding sources will not save that problem. --130.111.39.47 ↗ (talk) 17:45, 31 March 2023 (UTC)

ReferenceExpander

Just a friendly heads-up in case you weren't already aware, since it's installed on your common.js: Careless use of ReferenceExpander has caused serious problems. It's currently at MFD ↗, and a large cleanup project is underway to repair the citations damaged by the script. I and several other users have !voted that the script be deleted or disabled, and I wouldn't recommend using it at all unless you thoroughly check ''every'' reference it modifies against the previous revision. If you're interested in a more detailed explanation of the script's issues, {{noping|Folly Mox}} has provided an excellent summary at the MFD. — SamX [talk '''·''' contribs ↗] 05:12, 1 June 2023 (UTC)

Paid editing

Hi Matt. Hope all is well. I can see that you are offering Wikipedia editing service for pay on Upwork (there is no outing because you edit under your real name). I'm sure that you are doing it as a research project to gauge how paid editors are treated by volunteers.

Regardless of that, you might want to do it in the true spirit and as per Wikimedia Foundation's guidelines, i.e., keep the disclosure permanently either on your user page or talk page of the draft/article you edited for pay and use the WP:AFC ↗ process if it is a new entry; otherwise, use the WP:EDITREQUEST ↗ for paid editing requests. Paid editors' work must be reviewed by a volunteer after a disclosure, and they cannot delete the disclosure after completion of the contract. Also, you have to link your Upwork profile on your user page as it is required by WP:PAID ↗, e.g. :User:Jhofferman ↗. 163.47.119.24 ↗ (talk) 04:27, 30 March 2024 (UTC)

:Hi @Jhofferman
:Thanks for the guidance! This is a new venture for me so I appreciate your feedback. I am committed to only the most ethical editing on behalf of my clients and seek to follow all required policy. I've updated my user page accordingly. Matthewvetter (talk) 14:35, 30 March 2024 (UTC)

Matt - the disclosure is not a license to add puffery, unsourced material, and advertorials to the draft at Draft:Johnny La ↗. I'm not clear how this is aligned to your pledge of ethical editing. ''Sam '''Kuru''' (talk) ↗'' 20:13, 30 March 2024 (UTC)

:Hi @Kuru Thanks for the feedback. I appreciate your guidance as I am navigating the line between representing the subject with the sources that are available and avoiding WP:NOT/WP:PROMO. Do you have any specific feedback on the use of the LAWeekly source? Thanks again, - Matt Matthewvetter (talk) 20:23, 30 March 2024 (UTC)
::You are being paid to edit Dana Klisanin ↗ you should NOT be editing the article directly, but should use the request edits process with the template {{t|edit COI}} Theroadislong (talk) 20:37, 30 March 2024 (UTC)
:::Hi @Theroadislong thanks for this guidance. I can certainly use the edit request in the future, though my reading of WP:COI was that it was a recommendation rather than a hard/fast rule. Matthewvetter (talk) 20:47, 30 March 2024 (UTC)
::::The guideline says "that those with a conflict of interest, including paid editors, are '''strongly discouraged''' from directly editing affected articles, but should post content proposals on the talk pages of existing articles, and should put new articles through the articles for creation process, so they can be reviewed prior to being published" Theroadislong (talk) 21:41, 30 March 2024 (UTC)
:::::Thanks @Theroadislong - that's the passage I had interpreted as a recommendation rather than a rule. But again, I am happy to abide by the recommendation. I appreciate your quoting the guideline. Matthewvetter (talk) 21:58, 30 March 2024 (UTC)
::I'm usually happy to walk good-faith editors through the accidental use of junk/vanity sources, but I'm not volunteering my time here to guide you through your paid gig. Please carefully evaluate the sources you are using, especially when you ''know'' the subject has engaged in paid placement. ''Sam '''Kuru''' (talk) ↗'' 20:39, 30 March 2024 (UTC)

Deletion discussion about Barry Gough (businessman) ↗

Hello Matthewvetter, and thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia.

While your contributions are appreciated, I wanted to let you know that I've started a discussion about whether an article that you created, Barry Gough (businessman) ↗, should be deleted, as I am not sure that it is suitable for inclusion in Wikipedia in its current form. Your comments are welcome at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Barry Gough (businessman) ↗.

Deletion discussions ↗ usually run for seven days and are ''not'' votes. Our guide ↗ about effectively contributing to such discussions is worth a read. The most common issue in these discussions is notability ↗, but it's not the only aspect that may be discussed; read the nomination and any other comments carefully before you contribute to the discussion. Last but not least, you are highly encouraged to continue improving the article; just be sure not to remove the tag about the deletion nomination from the top.

If you have any questions, please leave a comment here and prepend it with <code><nowiki>{{Re|</nowiki>Dclemens1971<nowiki>}}</nowiki></code>. And don't forget to sign your reply with <code><nowiki>~~~~</nowiki></code> . Thanks!

Thanks for Adding Victor Villanueva

Hello,

I see you added a bio for Victor Villanueva. He was my professor and chair for my MA in English in 2014 at WSU, and I tried to create a Wikipedia page then for him, but found it to be too difficult to meet all the requirements. It was my first time trying to create a Wikipedia page, and it became too overwhelming on top of my graduate studies.

So, I write to thank you for making it come true. His is a living legend and deserves to be recognized as such.

I truly appreciate your contribution. Well done!

Ways to improve Global rhetorical studies

Hello, Matthewvetter,

Thank you for creating Global rhetorical studies ↗.

I have tagged the page ↗ as having some issues to fix, as a part of our page curation process ↗ and note that:

{{Quote|1=Hi Matt - I'm doing New Page Patrol and came across your page Global rhetorical studies which I thought seemed a bit vague and I am not convinced this is a term that should have a Wikipedia article. But I see you're an English professor (hi fellow academic) and this is a bit on the side of my own field so I figured I'd ask you about it. First of all, the term "Global rhetorical studies" only has four hits in Google Scholar which suggests it's not really an established term. The article's first reference, which looks as though it's supposed to support the definition of the term, doesn't really support the claim that this is a field - on the contrary, it's about transnational rhetorical studies, and it says that "global" is often used interchangeably with transnational but it shouldn't be. The rest of the article doesn't really have much evidence that people talk about this as a field, and it seems a bit odd that the cited works are mostly by US scholars - I'm from Norway and there has been scholarship on rhetoric in Norwegian for a long time, and I assume likewise in most other countries. If there were books and university courses on "global rhetorical studies" perhaps I could see this as a defined field but as the article stands now I'm not convinced? But perhaps you have other sources or could rewrite the article to make it clearer?}}

The tags can be removed by you or another editor once the issues they mention are addressed. If you have questions, leave a comment here and begin it with <code><nowiki>{{Re|</nowiki>Lijil<nowiki>}}</nowiki></code>. Remember to sign your reply with <code><nowiki>~~~~</nowiki></code>. For broader editing help, please visit the Teahouse ↗.

Delivered via the Page Curation ↗ tool, on behalf of the reviewer.
