I liked the edit you made to Hayate (train). Thanks! If you want, I can help you out with the hyperlink. - Master of Hedgehogs ^(converse) ^{(hate that hedgehog!)} 14:08, 20 March 2024 (UTC)

That would be great, thanks! ThisUsernameThatIsNowTaken (talk) 14:13, 20 March 2024 (UTC)

I've done the hyperlink help. No need to link other Wikipedia pages like [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Example Foo], or Foo, link them like [[Example|Foo]], or Foo. - Master of Hedgehogs ^(converse) ^{(hate that hedgehog!)} 14:19, 20 March 2024 (UTC)

Ok, Thanks! ThisUsernameThatIsNowTaken (talk) 14:46, 20 March 2024 (UTC)

I wrote it like Foo because it would bring you to the shinkansen service name subheading. But if I wrote it as Foo, it would just bring me to the top of the article. ThisUsernameThatIsNowTaken (talk) 14:48, 20 March 2024 (UTC)

You can write [[Shinkansen#Service names|semi-express]], giving semi-express, which has the effect you're looking for. Please make sure that you're doing the right thing before making large amounts of similar edits in future - you can always ask at the Teahouse if you need help. Cheers — Jumbo T (talk) 19:02, 20 March 2024 (UTC)

In fact, would you be able to do a good thing and go back through your recent contributions to correct this error? It would be helpful :) — Jumbo T (talk) 19:05, 20 March 2024 (UTC)

Ok, I would be happy to do that! ThisUsernameThatIsNowTaken (talk) 20:08, 20 March 2024 (UTC)

Your submission at Articles for creation: East-i series shinkansen (March 21)

Latest comment: 1 month ago2 comments1 person in discussion

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed. Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reason left by Velella was:

This draft's references do not show that the subject qualifies for a Wikipedia article. In summary, the draft needs multiple published sources that are:

in-depth (not just passing mentions about the subject)
reliable
secondary
independent of the subject

Make sure you add references that meet these criteria before resubmitting. Learn about mistakes to avoid when addressing this issue. If no additional references exist, the subject is not suitable for Wikipedia.

The comment the reviewer left was:

No sources so notability cannot be evaluated. It also lacks any context about what it is and where. We have to guess it relates to Japanese railwys simply from the short description. An overabundance of near identical images do not help the article in any way.

Please check the submission for any additional comments left by the reviewer. You are encouraged to edit the submission to address the issues raised and resubmit after they have been resolved.

If you would like to continue working on the submission, go to Draft:East-i series shinkansen and click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window.
If you do not edit your draft in the next 6 months, it will be considered abandoned and may be deleted.
If you need any assistance, or have experienced any untoward behavior associated with this submission, you can ask for help at the Articles for creation help desk, on the reviewer's talk page or use Wikipedia's real-time chat help from experienced editors.
