Pomerania during the High Middle Ages edit

Hi, Tinynanorobots. Despite what Volunteer Marek says in his last edit summary, deleting large chunks of text without an explanation, especially (but not only) when it includes citations, is not okay here. would you please explain any deletion in your edit summary? Someone has worked to create each section. If it is worthless, then please say why that is in your edit summary. If it has some value but does not belong here, then please move it to another article or else create a new one to put it into. Moonraker (talk) 02:46, 2 October 2013 (UTC)Reply

Actually deleting large chunk of unsourced text is just fine, and in fact it's good practice (it's pretty much what real life "editors" mostly do). When the text is sourced then yes, before deleting explanation should be provided. But in this case, at least for some of the deletions it looked to me like it was provided, on talk. Volunteer Marek  18:40, 2 October 2013 (UTC)Reply

Featuring your work on Wikipedia's front page: DYKs edit

  Thank you for your recent articles, including Ostsiedlung in Pomerania, which I read with interest. When you create an extensive and well referenced article, you may want to have it featured on Wikipedia's main page in the Did You Know section. Articles included there will be read by thousands of our viewers. To do so, add your article to the list at T:TDYK. Let me know if you need help, Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 06:26, 6 October 2013 (UTC)Reply

WikiProject assessment tags for talk pages edit

  Thank you for your recent articles, including Ostsiedlung in Pomerania, which I read with interest. When you create a new article, can you add the WikiProject assessment templates to the talk of that article? See the talk page of the article I mentioned for an example of what I mean. Usually it is very simple, you just add something like {{WikiProject Keyword}} to the article's talk, with keyword replaced by the associated WikiProject (ex. if it's a biography article, you would use WikiProject Biography; if it's a United States article, you would use WikiProject United States, and so on). You do not have to rate the article if you do not want to, others will do it eventually. Those templates are very useful, as they bring the articles to a WikiProject attention, and allow them to start tracking the articles through Wikipedia:Article alerts and other tools. This can help you too, as the WikiProject members will often defend your work from deletion and try to improve it further. Feel free to ask me any questions if you'd like more information.
