Hilary Duff articles edit

Your recent contribution(s) to Wikipedia are very much appreciated. However, you did not provide references or sources for your information. Keeping Wikipedia accurate and verifiable is very important, and as you might be aware there is currently a drive to improve the quality of Wikipedia by encouraging editors to cite the sources they used when adding content. If sources are left unreferenced, it may count as original research, which is not allowed. Can you provide in the article specific references to any books, articles, websites or other reliable sources that will allow people to verify the content in the article? You can use a citation method listed at inline citations that best suits each article. Thanks! Extraordinary Machine 16:51, 21 November 2006 (UTC)Reply

  1. The above applies to Play with Fire (song). Also, please note that music video countdowns and iTunes charts are not official charts.
  2. I have noted that you often edit without an edit summary. Please do your best to always fill in the summary field. This is considered an important guideline in Wikipedia. Even a short summary is better than no summary. An edit summary is even more important if you delete any text; otherwise, people may think you're being sneaky. Also, mentioning one change but not another one can be misleading to someone who finds the other one more important; add "and misc." to cover the other change(s). Thanks! Extraordinary Machine 13:03, 25 November 2006 (UTC)Reply
Also, please do not insert section headers in a small section of text, as you did at Santa Claus Lane. Wikipedia:Guide_to_layout#Structure_of_the_article recommends against this because it makes articles look cluttered and inhibits their flow. As a rule of thumb, separate sections should contain at least two paragraphs each. Thanks. Extraordinary Machine 13:12, 25 November 2006 (UTC)Reply

You are providing links, such as http://www.the-raft.com/hilaryduff, that do not support the facts that you are trying to cite in the article. Please stop this. Extraordinary Machine 17:12, 27 November 2006 (UTC)Reply

Again, please make sure to cite your sources, specifically reliable ones, whenever adding or changing information such as sales. I know this can be a pain, but it means that anyone reading the article in the future will know that the information came from somewhere and may be considered reliable. Think about it: what's the point of adding information if there's no way of knowing whether it's true? Extraordinary Machine 13:18, 9 December 2006 (UTC)Reply
Also, in accordance with the guidelines at Wikipedia:WikiProject Music/Tables for charts, chart trajectories should be excluded from articles. Thanks. Extraordinary Machine 19:02, 11 December 2006 (UTC)Reply

Thank you for experimenting with the page Hilary Duff on Wikipedia. Your test worked, and it has been reverted or removed. Please use the sandbox for any other tests you may want to do.

Please stop. If you continue to vandalize pages, as you did to Fly (Hilary Duff song), you will be blocked from editing Wikipedia. -- lucasbfr talk 06:13, 16 December 2006 (UTC)Reply


Re: Fly Article edit

Errr I didn't quite understand what you meant to be honest :D. To edit a whole article, you can click the "Edit this page" tab at the top of each page (beside the "Article", "Discussion" and the "History" tabs). Hope that helps! Happy Editing! -- lucasbfr talk 06:43, 16 December 2006 (UTC)Reply

Re: Play With Fire edit

I'm not sure what you mean, but it's a print reference, not a web reference, so there isn't a link I can provide. Do you mean when you click on the number, it doesn't take you to the reference at the bottom? If so, that's because the reference is too near the bottom of the page for you to be taken there directly.

Also, it is precedent for numbers under ten to be written out in full (e.g. number one, not number 1); for numbers under 100, a university professor of English said most major style manuals recommend that they be written out as well (though Wikipedia says nothing about those). Please make sure to capitalise only first words and proper nouns in section headers, for example "Song and music video", not "Song and Music Video". In fact it's not wise to title a section "Song", because the whole article is about the song. And component charts such as the Hot Digital Songs should not be included in certain circumstances; see Wikipedia:Record charts for more info on this. I know this may be a lot to take in; I felt like this when I first started editing. But I am a Hilary Duff fan as well, so I hope we can work together, and with other editors who are willing, to make the articles on her songs and albums better. Thanks!

Greetings,

I left 66.21.220.86 a warning. Looks like a newbie; best to be nice to them, until they are repeat offenders. He hasn't edited for several hours anyway. If he comes back and is a problem, you can always list him at administrator attention against vandalism. Thanks, Antandrus (talk) 03:23, 22 December 2006 (UTC)Reply

Hilary Duff (album) edit

I've just removed the worldwide sales figure supported by http://buenavistarecords.go.com/hilaryduff/index2.html (Duff's official website), which states "Hilary’s #1 solo debut CD "Metamorphosis sold 4 times platinum, followed by her self –titled album and “Most Wanted” both of which sold 3 million records." It doesn't say Hilary Duff and Most Wanted sold three million copies each worldwide (because they say Metamorphosis "sold 4 times platinum", they're probably referring to combined U.S.-only sales for the two albums anyway), and what's more, record labels often use the term "records" to refer to combined album and single sales. I'd be very careful about taking what you read in official website biographies and other material originating from the record company at face value; usually what they do is a) exaggerate sales figures, typically by reporting numbers of shipments to retailers as "sales", and/or b) write the material ambiguously enough that it could be misinterpreted as saying something more positive (e.g. a higher sales figure) than is actually true.

References and edit summaries edit

  1. Please do not use message board posts as references, because they are not reliable.
  2. When editing an article on Wikipedia there is a small field labeled "Edit summary" under the main edit-box. It looks like this:

     

    The text written here will appear on the Recent changes page, in the page revision history, on the diff page, and in the watchlists of users who are watching that article. See m:Help:Edit summary for full information on this feature.

Filling in the edit summary field greatly helps your fellow contributors in understanding what you changed, so please always fill in the edit summary field, especially for big edits or when you are making subtle but important changes, like changing dates or numbers. Thank you. Extraordinary Machine 14:02, 6 April 2007 (UTC)Reply

Speedy deletion nomination of Port Dickson Festivals edit

 

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.

You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on Port Dickson Festivals requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about an organized event (tour, function, meeting, party, etc.), but it does not indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please read more about what is generally accepted as notable.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, you can place a request here. Epeefleche (talk) 04:55, 6 June 2014 (UTC)Reply

Speedy deletion nomination of Numoni edit

Hello Ashuduff,

I wanted to let you know that I just tagged Numoni for deletion, because it seems to be inappropriate for a variety of reasons.

If you feel that the article shouldn't be deleted and want more time to work on it, you can contest this deletion, but please don't remove the speedy deletion tag from the top.

You can leave a note on my talk page if you have questions. Kudpung กุดผึ้ง (talk) 10:01, 21 June 2015 (UTC)Reply

Reply edit

Hi, thanks for message. After its nomination by admin Kudpung กุดผึ้ง as spam with no evidence of notability, I deleted your article because

  • it did not provide adequate independent verifiable sources to enable us to verify the facts and show that it meets the notability guidelines. Although you provided references, they all appear to be to local print productions which it is not feasible for us to verify or inspect. If the company is, as you claim, "the leader in its field", there should be reputable third-party web resources you could use.
  • it's all about what the company sells, little about the company itself. Where are its headquarters? How many employees (only given in infobox)? Turnover? Profits?
  • it was written in a promotional tone. Articles must be neutral and encyclopaedic. Examples of unverifiable claims presented as fact include: ... that enable the underbanked to carry out micro- transactions... Numoni is committed to empowering the underbanked in any part of the world, to make e-transactions effectively and securely... Numoni also builds on its relationships with other organisations... From inception, Numoni understood that virtual currencies and mobile wallets will have a tremendous impact on daily lives, in light of the incredible global penetration of mobile phones that today reaches all communities (its founder is not an independent reliable source)... showcased...
