Tips

Don't be afraid to edit! Just find something that can be improved and make it better. Other editors will help fix any mistakes you make.
It's normal to feel a little overwhelmed, but don't worry if you don't understand everything at first—it's fine to edit using common sense.
If an edit you make is reverted, you can discuss the issue at the article's talk page. Be civil, and don't restore the edit unless there is consensus.
Always use edit summaries to explain your changes.
When adding new content to an article, always include a citation to a reliable source.
If you wish to edit about a subject with which you are affiliated, read our conflict of interest guide and disclose your connection.
Have fun! Your presence in the Wikipedia community is welcome.

Happy editing! Cheers, 𝕁𝕄𝔽 (talk) 11:59, 12 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

MingKwai typewriter

Thanks for your additions to Chinese typewriter, but can you clarify the source of the images and their licensing? Content on Facebook cannot be used on Wikipedia without explicit licensing from the copyright owner. Jpatokal (talk) 08:29, 13 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Hi,

I had permission from the original poster on Facebook to upload these photos to wikipedia.

Thanks PebbleC (talk) 22:41, 13 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

That's great, but you will need to be get them to provide a written release to Wikimedia. The easiest way is to get them to fill out a form with this tool: https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Commons:Wikimedia_VRT_release_generator Jpatokal (talk) 23:00, 13 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Minor edits

No big deal but, for Wikipedia editing, "minor" means a change that has no effect on meaning, just a correction to spelling or punctuation. Size doesn't matter. See WP:MINOREDIT for the long version. (btw, I'm not SHOUTING . Wikipedia uses all-caps for shortcuts to avoid accidentally using a real article name.) No harm done, just one to note for future reference. A good rule is if in any doubt, don't mark it as minor.--𝕁𝕄𝔽 (talk) 11:59, 12 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Typewriter

You may notice that I undid your addition of info about how the Hermes 2000 got extra mileage out of a printer ribbon. IMO, that is just too much of a special case to merit inclusion. This sort of reversions and changes to other contributors' work is typical and what makes Wikipedia so effective. For the long explanation, see WP:Bold, revert, discuss and WP:OWN. In time, you'll be correcting my work too! --𝕁𝕄𝔽 (talk) 11:59, 12 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Oh, ok, sorry for the change PebbleC (talk) 23:09, 12 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Your submission at Articles for creation: Djungelskog (March 14)

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

Fails WP:GNG. Ikea website is a primary source and LinkedIn is not an acceptable source either. Neither is Know Your Meme.

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:Djungelskog 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.

Hello, PebbleC! Having an article draft declined at Articles for Creation can be disappointing. If you are wondering why your article submission was declined, please post a question at the Articles for creation help desk. If you have any other questions about your editing experience, we'd love to help you at the Teahouse, a friendly space on Wikipedia where experienced editors lend a hand to help new editors like yourself! See you there! Dan arndt (talk) 03:23, 14 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Hi,

Thanks for reviewing the draft article, I have added more secondary sources and edits to the article. There is a Wikipedia article of Djungelskog in Chinese (https://zh.wikipedia.org/zh-cn/Djungelskog%E6%A3%95%E7%86%8A), so I thought it would be suitable and notable enough to make an english wikipedia article about it.

Thanks :) PebbleC (talk) 06:03, 14 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]
