Hello, Tails Wx. This is a bot-delivered message letting you know that Draft:David Yong, a page you created, has not been edited in at least 5 months. Drafts that have not been edited for six months may be deleted, so if you wish to retain the page, please edit it again or request that it be moved to your userspace.

If the page has already been deleted, you can request it be undeleted so you can continue working on it.

Thank you for your submission to Wikipedia. FireflyBot (talk) 03:06, 13 June 2024 (UTC)

Hello Tails! I am new but enjoy learning and adding new information to my own life so finding ways to contribute to Wikipedia seems like a natural extension of my own hobby. First question is tied to usage and etiquette. I was reading up on the wreck of SS Edmund Fitzgerald and noticed a clarification request, after finding a source and adding the information, how do I resolve the request and return formatting to the proper format such as italics for the ship name? Thank you! --Birderjem (talk) 17:36, 12 June 2024 (UTC)

Hi, @Birderjem! So basically, “resolving” a clarification tag is to simply “clarify” it. That said, if the tagged sentence or wording is clarified, then the tag is no longer necessary. A source backing the clarification would also be clear as well. For the “return formatting”, I believe it’s just re-adding the removed source code that was originally there. Thanks, and feel free to ask questions for clarification (especially the latter part of my message)! :) ~ Tails Wx 10:42, 17 June 2024 (UTC)

Hello.. How do I upload my pictures and edit my biography --Diamondprimeofficial (talk) 12:20, 13 June 2024 (UTC)

Hello, @Diamondprimeofficial! Wikipedia is not a place for promotion; therefore I wouldn’t upload pictures of yourself and create a biography for yourself on here. The blue link directs more information as to why Wikipedia isn’t a place for promotion. Thanks! :) ~ Tails Wx 10:47, 17 June 2024 (UTC)

Hello, how do we fix the Comicsgate Wikipedia entry? It currently violates several policies I read as a new contributor; it’s full of opinions, poorly cited, and biased. Here is the link: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comicsgate#/editor/0 --ErickCartmann (talk) 20:05, 23 June 2024 (UTC)

Hey there, @ErickCartmann! So, if there’s issues with the article, you could fix it yourself. However, since contentious topics rules apply to that page in particular, then I highly recommend asking on the article’s talk page for any edits or fixes that could be made regarding the article. The Help desk could also be of interest in any questions regarding that article as well. Thanks! :) ~ Tails Wx 04:17, 28 June 2024 (UTC)

Hi. I used an updated picture, but it does not appear at the top of the infobox. I tried to use source editing to move it, but I've been unsuccessful. Thanks for your help. --Newsjunkie13 (talk) 14:15, 26 June 2024 (UTC)

Hi @Newsjunkie13, I’ve fixed it for ya here!. Linking the URL in the infobox does not cause the image to show up, by the way. ~ Tails Wx 04:22, 28 June 2024 (UTC)

Hi, I wrote an article and it keeps getting rejected by different writers. The most recent rejection comment was "Remove unreliable resources".The reviewer did not explain which sources are unreliable.... How should I proceed? This is my draft: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Draft:Carlo_Rino_Group_Berhad --Allewikiwriter (talk) 01:22, 28 June 2024 (UTC)

Hello, @Allewikiwriter! The best way you could proceed is to ask the most recent reviewer, SafariScribe, and ask what sources are unreliable and, if possible, to improve the draft in general. You could ask the other reviewers what issues could be resolved as well! :) ~ Tails Wx 04:29, 28 June 2024 (UTC)

Thank you so much for your reply! @Tails Wx Allewikiwriter (talk) 06:42, 28 June 2024 (UTC)

The third round of the 2024 WikiCup ended on 28 June. As with Round 2, this round was competitive: each of the 16 contestants who advanced to Round 4 scored at least 256 points.

The following editors all scored more than 400 points in Round 3:

• Generalissima (submissions) with 1,059 points, mostly from 1 featured article on DeLancey W. Gill, 11 good articles, 18 did you know nominations, and dozens of reviews;
• Skyshifter (submissions) with 673 points, mostly from 2 featured articles on Worlds (Porter Robinson album) and I'm God, 5 good articles, and 2 did you know nominations;
• Sammi Brie (submissions) with 557 points, mostly from 1 featured article on KNXV-TV, 5 good articles, and 8 did you know nominations; and
• AryKun (submissions) with 415 points, mostly from 1 featured article on Great cuckoo-dove, with a high number of bonus points from that article.

The full scores for round 3 can be seen here. So far this year, competitors have gotten 28 featured articles, 38 featured lists, 240 good articles, 92 in the news credits, and at least 285 did you know credits. They have conducted 279 featured article reviews, as well as 492 good article reviews and peer reviews, and have added 22 articles to featured topics and good topics.

Remember that any content promoted after 28 June but before the start of Round 4 can be claimed during Round 4, which starts on 1 July at 00:00 (UTC). Invitations for collaborative writing efforts or any other discussion of potentially interesting work is always welcome on the WikiCup talk page. Remember, if two or more WikiCup competitors have done significant work on an article, all can claim points. If you are concerned that your nomination—whether for a good article, featured content, or anything else—will not receive the necessary reviews, please list it on Wikipedia:WikiCup/Reviews Needed.

If you would like to learn more about rules and scoring for the 2024 WikiCup, please see this page. Further questions are welcome on Wikipedia talk:WikiCup and the judges (Cwmhiraeth (talk · contribs), Epicgenius (talk · contribs), and Frostly (talk · contribs)) are reachable on their talk pages.
