Welcome! edit

Hello, TriebelD, and welcome to Wikipedia! I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Unfortunately, one or more of the pages you created, such as User:TriebelD/sandbox, may not conform to some of Wikipedia's content policies and may not be retained. In short, the topic of an article must be notable and have already been the subject of publication by reliable and independent sources.

Please review Your first article for an overview of the article creation process. The Article Wizard is available to help you create an article, where it will be reviewed and considered for publication. For information on how to request a new article that can be created by someone else, see Requested articles. If you are stuck, come to the Teahouse, where experienced Wikipedians can help you through the processes.

New to Wikipedia? Please consider taking a look at our introductory tutorial or reviewing the contributing to Wikipedia page to learn the basics about editing. Below are a few other good pages about article creation.

I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Please sign your name on talk pages using four tildes (~~~~); this will automatically produce your name and the date. If you have any questions, ask me on my talk page. You can also type {{help me}} on this page, followed by your question, and someone will show up shortly to answer your questions. Again, welcome! — Ingenuity (talk • contribs) 14:32, 26 August 2022 (UTC)Reply

Speedy deletion nomination of User:TriebelD/sandbox 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 User:TriebelD/sandbox requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page appears to be an unambiguous copyright infringement. This page appears to be a direct copy from http://www.botanischestaatssammlung.de/DatabaseClients/IndExs/About.jsp. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images taken from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. You may use external websites or other printed material as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. This part is crucial: say it in your own words. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.

If the external website or image belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text or image — which means allowing other people to use it for any reason — then you must verify that externally by one of the processes explained at Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials. The same holds if you are not the owner but have their permission. If you are not the owner and do not have permission, see Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission for how you may obtain it. You might want to look at Wikipedia's copyright policy for more details, or ask a question here.

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 "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 deleted 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. — Ingenuity (talk • contribs) 14:32, 26 August 2022 (UTC)Reply

Managing a conflict of interest edit

  Hello, TriebelD. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about on Wikipedia, you may have a conflict of interest (COI). Editors with a conflict of interest may be unduly influenced by their connection to the topic. See the conflict of interest guideline and FAQ for organizations for more information. We ask that you:

In addition, you are required by the Wikimedia Foundation's terms of use to disclose your employer, client, and affiliation with respect to any contribution which forms all or part of work for which you receive, or expect to receive, compensation. See Wikipedia:Paid-contribution disclosure.

Also, editing for the purpose of advertising, publicising, or promoting anyone or anything is not permitted. Thank you. Drm310 🍁 (talk) 20:00, 26 August 2022 (UTC)Reply

Thank you for the comment and hints and for deleting my first trial text! I now slightly changed the subject of my first article. I will devote it to basic information on the very special system in botany and mycology called "exsiccatae" (published print works of botanists/ mycologists together with parallel distributing the cited and numbered herbarium specimens), explaining the history, relevance and current developments of this system without advertising the web interface IndExs for bibliography of such works.
PS I am from the academic sector, currently without experience on Wikipedia editing rules but experience with Media Wikis of the Biowikifarm. TriebelD (talk) 10:58, 28 August 2022 (UTC)Reply
Thank you for your message. You might also benefit from reviewing the page entitled Wikipedia:Expert editors. Writing on Wikipedia is very different from academic writing. While we welcome the knowledge and expertise of subject-matter experts, they are treated as equals with all other Wikipedia editors. All editors are expected to follow Wikipedia's relevant policies and guidelines. --Drm310 🍁 (talk) 14:19, 29 August 2022 (UTC)Reply

Greetings edit

Hello! Your name is one I recognise from creating and updating many articles on fungi and lichens. Thanks for creating the article on exsiccata; it's one I had been intending to start for a while, but hadn't gotten around to yet ... I'm very glad that an expert started it instead! I'll leave some links for WikiProjects you might be interested in: WP:FUNGI and WP:LICHENS. Happy editing! Esculenta (talk) 15:50, 14 September 2022 (UTC)Reply

Thank you for your positive comment. The article "Exsiccata" is just missing images and the repeated citation of the same reference should be changed. Perhaps you might support and continue? TriebelD (talk) 09:53, 15 September 2022 (UTC)Reply
Hi, do you know why the Meebold wiki page (see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alfred_Meebold) is added under related articles of the article exsiccata (smartphone view). Its only because he collected a lot of specimens now deposited at the Botanische Staatssammlung? He was a collector but not an editor of an exsiccata. Do you know how to change this? TriebelD (talk) 22:40, 16 October 2022 (UTC)Reply
Dear Esculenta, perhaps you can support our action to create the article IndExs - Index of Exsiccatae which will connect the article exsiccata and vice versa. Currently, it is proposed for deletion. TriebelD (talk) 15:11, 2 April 2024 (UTC)Reply
Sure, I'll work on the article by incorporating some of the additional sources you listed at the AfD; I'm quite sure that these additional citations will prove that notability is met. Esculenta (talk) 15:45, 2 April 2024 (UTC)Reply
Thanks a lot in advance! TriebelD (talk) 16:02, 2 April 2024 (UTC)Reply

The article will be discussed at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/IndExs - Index of Exsiccatae until a consensus is reached, and anyone, including you, is welcome to contribute to the discussion. The nomination will explain the policies and guidelines which are of concern. The discussion focuses on high-quality evidence and our policies and guidelines.

Users may edit the article during the discussion, including to improve the article to address concerns raised in the discussion. However, do not remove the article-for-deletion notice from the top of the article until the discussion has finished.

We hope that the article will not be deleted bur improved. We designed it similar to the article on MycoBank under https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MycoBank which describes a similar kind of biological online database. The article is important to explain the resource and the access poitn and location of upcoming technical services to persistently link IndExs exsiccata IDs and IndExs exsiccata editors IDs and information with Wikidata items, e.g. https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Property:P12371.
