Dear Mr Hoary! As I've already mentioned in my previous letter, it is still rather hard for me to make it clear what kind of reliable source you need in order to verify the information that was put in my article. Please don't consider it to be a hard job for you and help me to fulfil the task. Please read my previous letter addressed to you and your colleague Mr Greenman. L.

to my Editors

Dear Mr Hoary and Mr Greenman!

Thank you for editing my article! It's a pity that it was declined by Mr Greenman for the second time because it seemed to me that I'd taken into consideration the first piece of advice that was offered by Mr Hoary and did my best to correct the mistakes. It is obviously that I'm not experienced enough in creating Wikipedia articles and need your help to fix all that is "out of joint". I've read all the instructions that were mentioned but failed... Would you be so kind to tell me what in particular should be corrected or added? L. Likalter (talk) 16:39, 29 August 2022 (UTC)

Hello; I'm sorry to say that I've only just now noticed this. Yes, you did indeed fix various problems after I pointed them out. But a lot remains unreferenced. As an example, Under the leadership of Lazar Z. Cherikoverwas carried out in theory the calculation of the minimally acceptable ergonomic parameters of the living space which is “necessary for the Soviet person”. The results of theoretical studies were practically used in the design of small apartments for mass construction in accordance with the decisions of the Communist Party and the Soviet government. Alas, the minimum allowable in theory^[5] was accepted as the norm in practice. That "^[5]" doesn't look like a reference, and indeed it isn't one. Why should the reader believe any of this? And this is just a paragraph that I plucked out at random.

Here's another sample: "He studied at the Poltava gymnasium". The link works, but the method of making it is frowned on. Here's what you should do instead: "He studied at the Poltava gymnasium". Your version is frowned on not because it doesn't offer the Ukrainian-language version (although offering this is definitely a plus), but because "inline" links that go anywhere outside en:Wikipedia aren't welcome (unless, of course, they're within references, lists titled "External links", or a few other exceptions that we needn't go into here).

A tip: Avoid the title "Creative biography". I suppose that you intended this to mean "Biography as a creator" or similar, and it certainly can have this meaning. However, the rushed reviewer may misinterpret it as "Biography in which one or more Wikipedia editors have indulged their creativity". No!

Apologies again for the late response, and I hope that this helps you with your work on what is an unusually interesting draft. [Also pinging Greenman.] -- Hoary (talk) 23:59, 10 October 2022 (UTC)

Dear Hoary! Thank you for the thorough and detailed reply. I've read it carefully and will try my best to enhance my article. L. Likalter (talk) 17:54, 11 October 2022 (UTC)

L. Likalter, a couple more matters. In Alas, the minimum allowable in theory^[5] was accepted as the norm in practice, the most obvious interpretation of "alas" is "The person(s) who wrote this Wikipedia article regret(s) that". Most Wikipedia editors have strong opinions (of regret, anger, etc), but they're supposed to keep them in check when writing articles. Unless it's clearly labelled as quoted from somewhere, "alas" is out of place in any article. Secondly, when I post this message, you're automatically alerted because I post it on your talk page; but when you post a message here to (as an example) me, I'm only alerted if you simultaneously (i) use any one among [[User:Hoary|Hoary]], {{U|Hoary}}, {{Ping|Hoary}}, {{Reply to|Hoary}}, and {{To|Hoary}}, and (ii) add other text, and (iii) sign and date the message using ~~~~. -- Hoary (talk) 22:26, 12 October 2022 (UTC)
