Welcome! edit

Hello, Shackpoet, and welcome to Wikipedia! My name is Shalor and I work with the Wiki Education Foundation; I help support students who are editing as part of a class assignment.

I hope you enjoy editing here. If you haven't already done so, please check out the student training library, which introduces you to editing and Wikipedia's core principles. You may also want to check out the Teahouse, a community of Wikipedia editors dedicated to helping new users. Below are some resources to help you get started editing.

If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to contact me on my talk page. Shalor (Wiki Ed) (talk) 17:40, 14 February 2018 (UTC)Reply

OAbot for students edit

Hello, I've replied to your question on Wikipedia talk:OABOT. Let me know how the class goes, I'm very curious! Nemo 09:43, 23 September 2020 (UTC)Reply

How did it go? :) Nemo 05:45, 28 November 2023 (UTC)Reply
I've been revisiting the assignment since the OAbot was brought back online. There's still a lot of interpretation required to determine if the recommended link is to a legal OA copy even with good info from Sherpa Romeo. Still a very cool tool/bot and happy to keep contributing using it. Shackpoet (talk) 20:20, 28 November 2023 (UTC)Reply
Thanks. If this turns out to be a problem, I'd be happy to ensure that's not a problem when your students work on the tool. For example I could filter the suggestions to only include links to repositories in countries where copyright exceptions allow deposit whatever the publisher's policy is (basically Germany, Netherlands, France, Belgium, Austria).

For example these are some of the most common archives in the queue:

Copyright problem on John Borbridge Jr edit

Your additions to the above article include passages copied verbatim or nearly verbatim from a non-free source. This was detected by automatic plagiarism detection software. For copyright reasons, some of your contribution was deleted and I paraphrased some. Please review the Plagiarism and Copyright training module before proceeding further. Thanks. — Diannaa (talk) 23:36, 22 October 2021 (UTC)Reply

Diannaa thanks for taking the time to cleanup after me and add some paraphrasing, I was moving too quick and intended to come back for cleanup but lost track of browser tabs! Shackpoet (talk) 00:21, 23 October 2021 (UTC)Reply

Jordan Marie Daniel moved to draftspace edit

An article you recently created, Jordan Marie Daniel, is not suitable as written to remain published. It needs more in-depth coverage about the subject itself, with citations from reliable, independent sources in order to show it meets WP:GNG. It should have at least three, to be safe. And please remember that interviews, as primary sources, do not count towards GNG.(?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of "Draft:" before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page.Onel5969 TT me 10:16, 5 April 2023 (UTC)Reply

Okay thanks for the explanation. I'll work to track down some additional sources and appreciate the clarification about interviews (primary sources) not being sufficient sources to demonstrate notability. For consideration, I do think there are many other stub/start quality biographical articles on Wikipedia of questionable notability and source citations and a bit odd that this one gets flagged instead of those considering the coverage gaps related to Notable Indigenous People in general and women more specifically.
