Question from Kritzerdagoat (17:13, 2 May 2025)

[edit]

YOOO! its ya boy, kritzerdagoat, anyways, enough with the jokes, i cant really talk now because i have state testing (which i hate with a passion even though i pass every time) next week tuesday-thursday, also, ive been trying to edit some youth futball/soccer articles, such as the Mali U-17, but i cant figure out how to do they thing where they can make the column gold, sliver, or bronze. if you can, by friday, can you please send me a tutorial (or just tell me) how to do something like that. Thank you, from ya boy-Kritzerdagoat --Kritzerdagoat (talk) 17:13, 2 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Kritzerdagoat. I believe you're referring to this article as I saw that you edited its talkpage: 2025 U-17 Africa Cup of Nations. You wrote ... column gold, sliver, or bronze ..., but did you mean the gold, silver, and bronze rows like in this section: 2025 U-17 Africa Cup of Nations#Tournament rankings? If yes, this is a complicated edit and I wouldn't recommend attempting it to someone who, so far, has only made 1 other edit to a Wikipedia article. That said, for reference, the gold/silver/bronze coding is here and the tables tutorial is here. Good luck with your state testing; I hope you do great! --Rosiestep (talk) 13:43, 3 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Question from Buxtobe (15:00, 3 May 2025)

[edit]

Hi Rosie, please excuse me, but I have a question. I have been submitting the article https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Draft:Bernhard_Wessling for some time now. It was rejected by a reviewer because the source citation was missing. I submitted all this later, but haven't heard anything since. Is there perhaps a way to move the process forward? Many thanks for your information and best regards Dirk --Buxtobe (talk) 15:00, 3 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Buxtobe. I made some edits (headers, subheader, re-arranging, External links, categories) to the draft; take a look. Other things that I think need doing before submitting for another review:
  • Add at least one reliable source as an inline citation to each paragraph (except for the lead paragraph) to address the comment made by HickoryOughtShirt?4 in their review.
  • In the lead section/paragraph, add sentences that address Johannes Maximilian's comment: "I don't see why the subject qualifies for a Wikipedia article. What do you reckon, why is the subject notable?".
  • In the "Career and research" section (this is a common header title for scientist biographies):
  • Arrange information in chron order.
  • Add additional subheaders (e.g., like the one I did) if applicable.
  • Add your comment (disclosure about paid editing) to the talkpage.
Please note that my edits or suggested edits are meant only to address your request to ... move the process forward. It shouldn't be construed that my edits or suggested edits guarantee that the draft will eventually be accepted and moved into mainspace. --Rosiestep (talk) 15:45, 3 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
