Erhard

Hiya! What do you think about the article Werner Erhard? Is it OK in its current state?

I know little about this guy, other than what I've read because of the various onwiki disputes. Polygnotus (talk) 18:38, 15 May 2025 (UTC)

Maybe I should ask a more precise question because this article is very long. In parts I feel it is decent, other parts are bad. I'll be back. Polygnotus (talk) 19:01, 15 May 2025 (UTC)

Polygnotus, I will be off Wikipedia for several hours, so we can discuss this and related articles later. Cullen328 (talk) 20:52, 15 May 2025 (UTC)

Reading the newspaper

Nice to see you've found a good home for that photo! Wouldn't want it to get lost among the guildines. — ClaudineChionh (she/her · talk · email · global) 12:48, 16 May 2025 (UTC)

Thanks for noticing, ClaudineChionh. I liked the photo and when I checked it out, I noticed that it is a Featured picture on Commons. I hope that nobody will think that I read Hindi. As for that essay, I think that WP:CIR applies. Cullen328 (talk) 17:09, 16 May 2025 (UTC)

Question from Mischumerritt (23:20, 16 May 2025)

Hi, Thanks for being my mentor! I made an edit to add scans of the letter by Oscar Fitzalan Harmon mentioned on the page https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=125th_Illinois_Infantry_Regiment Happy to get feedback on appropriateness, etc.

...I have about scans of about 400 of the letters he wrote home during the Civil War campaign, and a scan of the privately published "Life and Letters of Oscar Fitzalan Harmon" edited by his daughter. I welcome advice! Best regards, Michael --Mischumerritt (talk) 23:20, 16 May 2025 (UTC)

Hello, Mischumerritt. This is your only edit to the English Wikipedia. I see that you uploaded some documents to Wikimedia Commons. That is a separate project with its own inclusion criteria and its own policies and guidelines. You will have to ask there about this particular matter. I can assist you with editing the encyclopedia. Wikisource may be the best project for hosting this type of material. I do not know for sure because I am not active there. Good luck. Cullen328 (talk) 00:55, 17 May 2025 (UTC)

Could you perhaps suggest how I might inquire with whom? Alas I am not skilled in the art…. 2601:84:8700:5D50:8DB0:8280:173:1C79 (talk) 01:19, 17 May 2025 (UTC)

Is this Mischumerritt editing logged out? If so, please log in to edit. I have no experience with Wikisource so you should read their home page carefully. Here is a directory of help resources on Wikimedia Commons. Cullen328 (talk) 02:04, 17 May 2025 (UTC)

Question from Bourdierd (17:04, 19 May 2025)

hello, I would like to publish a biography of my son in wikipedia --Bourdierd (talk) 17:04, 19 May 2025 (UTC)

Hello, Bourdierd. I assume that your statement has to do with your edit to Sidi Mansour (song). I am sorry, but what you wrote was in the wrong location, highly promotional and unreferenced. That's three policy violations. I consider it highly unlikely that a nine year old athlete would be eligible for a Wikipedia article. Please read WP:NFOOTY and Your first article. Cullen328 (talk) 17:37, 19 May 2025 (UTC)

yes, sorry for my mistake Bourdierd (talk) 20:10, 19 May 2025 (UTC)

Question from Mpilontle Mabuke (10:29, 20 May 2025)

Hi, are there any tips you could give me on editing --Mpilontle Mabuke (talk) 10:29, 20 May 2025 (UTC)

Hello, Mpilontle Mabuke. Our role as Wikipedia editors is to accurately and neutrally summarize what the full range of reliable, independent sources say about a topic. Cullen328 (talk) 17:05, 20 May 2025 (UTC)

Okay. Understood 105.0.6.195 (talk) 17:07, 20 May 2025 (UTC)

Please log in to edit, Mpilontle Mabuke. Cullen328 (talk) 17:13, 20 May 2025 (UTC)

Question from Ochediameh (14:23, 22 May 2025)

How do I edit on Wikipedia --Ochediameh (talk) 14:23, 22 May 2025 (UTC)

Hello, Ochediameh. Help: Editing is a good introduction. Please avoid making major changes to articles until you know what you are doing a little bit better. Cullen328 (talk) 16:30, 22 May 2025 (UTC)

Question from Shannonbryn (13:05, 22 May 2025)

Hi Cullen328, I was editing a wikipedia page for which I might be categorized as a conflict of interest, and a friend later warned me that this is not acceptable so I reverted the changes as I didn't want to jeopardize the page. However, the minor edits (about 500 characters total) still need to be made as they are updates to outdated references on the page. Can you give me advice on how to contact someone who might assess the requested changes and make them? --Shannonbryn (talk) 13:05, 22 May 2025 (UTC)

Hello, Shannonbryn. I assume that this is about Shannon B. Olsson. There are a few things that you should do. First, click on your signature which is now red, type in the editing box to disclose your conflict of interest, and then click the blue "Publish page" box. Then, read about how to create a formal edit request. Then, make your formal edit request at Talk: Shannon B. Olsson. If you are unable to resolve the issue within a couple of days, come back here to my talk page and I will assist you further. Thank you for doing your best to resolve this the right way. Cullen328 (talk) 16:14, 22 May 2025 (UTC)

Thank you @Cullen328, I will study these materials and go forward. I am hopeful that these minor edits might get made by an impartial third party. I appreciate your help. Shannonbryn (talk) 07:53, 23 May 2025 (UTC)
