Account

I have been editing from an IP address for about a month. I just created an account, and I was wondering if there is anyway to join my IP account and this one. I don't really want my contributions in two separate places.

StarshipSLS (talk) 00:17, 27 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I'm guessing you found out the answer is "no". You can certainly make a note on your user page pointing to your contributions under the IP address for that particular date range (in case that IP address later gets re-assigned to someone else). — jmcgnh(talk) (contribs) 01:22, 27 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

User:jmchnh, I already got the answer from IRC Help.Starship SLS (formerly IP 64.121.103.144) (talk) 15:09, 27 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Help

There is a discussion about me at Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents - Wikipedia. Can someone please look at it and tell me what they think will be the result? Starship SLS (formerly IP 64.121.103.144) (talk) 22:37, 27 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I'm no fortune teller, but it looks like you'll probably be asked to refrain from participating in "meta" activities (such as replying to help requests or closing discussions) until your understanding of how Wikipedia operates sufficiently improves. Have you considered participating in the Wikipedia:Adopt-a-user program (as an adoptee of course)? 78.28.55.108 (talk) 09:18, 28 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Fixed your talk page archiving

Hi! I took the liberty of fixing the auto-archiving settings at the top of this page. --rchard2scout (talk) 07:00, 28 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@Rchard2scout: What was wrong with it?Starship SLS (formerly IP 64.121.103.144) (talk) 15:03, 28 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
(Random IP, not rchard2scout) You had copied and pasted it from someone else's user page without changing the settings, so it was starting at "archive 28" and was storing old threads in someone else's talk archive, have a look at this diff [1] to see the fixes they made. 192.76.8.91 (talk) 15:59, 28 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
It wouldn't have actually archived anything to the wrong archive, because the bot checks if the archive parameter is set to a subpage of the page it's trying to archive. I fixed it because I'm working on Category:Pages where archive parameter is not a subpage. --rchard2scout (talk) 17:13, 28 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
@Rchard2scout Thank you so much! Yes, I did copy and paste it from another person's talk page to make it easier to set up archiving. Starship SLS (formerly IP 64.121.103.144) (talk) 18:09, 28 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

About Adopt-a-User

From my understanding of adopting a user, it means that I help you to understand all of the code, formatting of creating articles, answer any concerns/questions that you may have about Wikipedia. So yeah! Feel free to ask any questions and I will try to answer them as soon as I can — as well as clearly! Jack Reynolds (talk to me | email me) 15:09, 29 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Welcome Adoptee

Hi StarshipSLS, welcome to the Adopt-a-User Program, I will be your mentor within the next couple of weeks and will try my best to introduce you into Wikipedia. What you can expect is that I will answer any question you have and that I will monitor closely any of your contributions (and your talk page). If you have questions contact me on my talk page or via Email - what I do expect is that you read carefully a bunch of Policies and Tutorials before continuing editing the way you did before. I will leave you a whole bunch of information below which you definitely need to read and understand. Welcome! CommanderWaterford (talk) 16:44, 29 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

How will being adopted by two users be, @CommanderWaterford and @Jack Reynolds Starship SLS (formerly IP 64.121.103.144) (talk) 16:45, 29 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Welcome!

Hello and welcome to Wikipedia. Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. The following links will help you begin editing on Wikipedia:

Please bear these points in mind while editing Wikipedia:

The Wikipedia tutorial is a good place to start learning about Wikipedia. If you have any questions, see the help pages, add a question to the village pump or ask me on my talk page. By the way, you can sign your name on Talk and discussion pages using four tildes, like this: ~~~~ (the software will replace them with your signature and the date). Again, welcome! CommanderWaterford (talk) 16:45, 29 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@CommanderWaterford I don't need to sign with five tildes because I have a special beta feature that does not require that. In this post I am not signing with five tildes! Starship SLS (formerly IP 64.121.103.144) (talk) 16:47, 29 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
@StarshipSLS Sure, I do not either. Important is reading all the links above ... and understand them. CommanderWaterford (talk) 16:48, 29 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
@CommanderWaterford:I don't really have time to read every word, but I've looked through them today and in the past. Starship SLS (formerly IP 64.121.103.144) (talk) 16:52, 29 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
@StarshipSLS Well, you should take your time - how long it may take - to read them entirely - if you do not follow them you will run into trouble sooner or later. CommanderWaterford (talk) 16:56, 29 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
I agree. You should read them carefully and understand them correctly. Also, I see that you're not {{ping}} the correct way. The correct way is to use {{ping|Username}}. So, if you were to ping me, you would write in {{ping|JackReynoldsADogOwner}}. Hope this helps! Jack Reynolds (talk to me | email me) 18:23, 29 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
@JackReynoldsADogOwner: @CommanderWaterford: Unfortunately, I only have limited time. But, I will read them over time. Starship SLS (formerly IP 64.121.103.144) (talk) 18:42, 29 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I totally understand! Me and CommanderWaterford will notice if you've learned from them! Time will tell. Jack Reynolds (talk to me | email me) 19:44, 29 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

AN/I

I've closed the AN/I with the understanding that you will adhere to your agreement to accept mentorship from a couple of the more experienced editors. I hope this works out well for you, and I welcome you to the project. Please do use caution in your editing - if in doubt, then don't. Ask first if you're not sure about something. Best, and happy editing. — Ched (talk) 17:05, 29 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I've left a comment on your Articles for Creation submission, which can be viewed at Draft:Habitation and Logistics Outpost. Thanks! CommanderWaterford (talk) 20:24, 29 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
I fixed the problems. Can you look at it again? Starship SLS (formerly IP 64.121.103.144) (talk) 14:02, 30 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
@CommanderWaterford: I fixed the problems. Can you look at it again? Starship SLS (formerly IP 64.121.103.144) (talk) 14:03, 30 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
CommanderWaterford will get to it. Please do not spam him with pings. Everyone has a life and we must respect that. Thanks. Jack Reynolds (talk to me | email me) 14:22, 30 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
@StarshipSLS @JackReynoldsADogOwner I don't have a life :) but I have too many pings, that is the problem :) :) :)
If you expect me to approve the draft I have to disappoint you, I do not approve Drafts of my Adoptees in general (have a look at Wikipedia:Advocacy) but I will have a look at it later this day. CommanderWaterford (talk) 15:10, 30 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@CommanderWaterford: Instructions Followed Starship SLS (formerly IP 64.121.103.144) (talk) 17:45, 30 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
@StarshipSLS I dont think so. The draft has not been nominated for CSD G7 nor did you submit a new draft. I suggest you submit this draft as a new one, ping me, and I will do the rest since CSD is a topic perhaps for later. CommanderWaterford (talk) 18:19, 30 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

New Questions

Questions as of May 1, 2021:

  • What is the specific order to categorized categories?
  • If you are personally being attacked by a user of Wikipedia, what should you do and why?
  • If you are to write about somebody that is close to you, what is that called and should you make it?
  • When you see/witness a user doing disruptive editing, what should you do first?
  • What does 3RR mean and why is it important?

👍 CommanderWaterford (talk) 18:16, 30 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
@CommanderWaterford: Does that mean that I'm asking good questions? Jack Reynolds (talk to me | email me) 18:21, 30 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
@JackReynoldsADogOwner Absolutely. Good work. CommanderWaterford (talk) 18:23, 30 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
@CommanderWaterford: Yay! You can also ask any questions if you want to! I'll be adding more questions whenever I feel like StarshipSLS is ready to answer them. The above are just some that necessary to ask. Jack Reynolds (talk to me | email me) 18:38, 30 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
@JackReynoldsADogOwner I will for sure but first of all I would be keen to see the answers. CommanderWaterford (talk) 18:46, 30 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
@JackReynoldsADogOwner @CommanderWaterford:
3RR is the three revert rule. It means you cannot revert three edits in a single article within 24 hours. It is important so a user doesn't disrupt the article. Exception: self-reverting

If you are attacked, you can submit a complaint to a noticeboard. You can also discuss whatever happened with the user. Starship SLS (formerly IP 64.121.103.144) (talk) 19:04, 30 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
@StarshipSLS A) Which noticeboard, we have several dozens. B) Which is the correct policy, where can I read about what to do in case of personal attacks? CommanderWaterford (talk) 19:16, 30 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
@CommanderWaterford: I'll get back to you with that. Starship SLS (formerly IP 64.121.103.144) (talk) 13:23, 1 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I don't remember what it is called when you write about someone close to you, but I know that it is not aloud. Starship SLS (formerly IP 64.121.103.144) (talk) 19:05, 30 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
This is a little bit disappointing since it is described extensive in the info I gave you yesterday. And you are wrong, it could be okay (in some cases). It is called Conflict of Interest Editing. CommanderWaterford (talk) 19:16, 30 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
@CommanderWaterford: I am sorry, but I wasn't able to read everything. I have a personal life too, and I only have so much time here. Starship SLS (formerly IP 64.121.103.144) (talk) 13:21, 1 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
You can do it if you state your conflict of interest. Starship SLS (formerly IP 64.121.103.144) (talk) 14:11, 1 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
If you see someone doing disruptive editing, revert the edit and let the user know. Starship SLS (formerly IP 64.121.103.144) (talk) 19:06, 30 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Alrighty. This has given information that we needed so far. First of all, Eponymous categories should come first after the article and it is at the bottom on the page with [[Cateogory:...]]. Conflict of Interest is where you have a personal connection to the topic you are writing about. That is not allowed. Please read over WP:COI to learn more about Conflict of Interest whenever you have time. Jack Reynolds (talk to me | email me) 21:51, 30 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I read through parts of it. I know what it is, I just didn't remember the name. I didn't know what kind of category you meant. Starship SLS (formerly IP 64.121.103.144) (talk) 13:20, 1 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
@JackReynoldsADogOwner, @CommanderWaterford: Conflict: @CommanderWaterford says that conflict of interest is allowed sometimes but @JackReynoldsADogOwner says that it is not aloud. Also, I made a sandbox! Starship SLS (formerly IP 64.121.103.144) (talk) 20:15, 1 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
@StarshipSLS First of all no need to ping me twice in one sentence, I do see any of your contributions. If @JackReynoldsADogOwner says that COI is not allowed then he is wrong. COI editing is strongly discouraged on Wikipedia but it is - if you respect several conditions - allowed. Editors with a COI, including paid editors, are expected to disclose it whenever they seek to change an affected article's content. Anyone editing for pay must disclose who is paying them, who the client is, and any other relevant affiliation; this is a requirement of the Wikimedia Foundation. COI editors should not edit affected articles directly, but should propose changes on article talk pages instead. CommanderWaterford (talk) 20:25, 1 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Just want to let you know...

I don't know if you know this, but an IP user added you to The Downlink members. It's probably not a big deal, but I just want to let you know. - ZLEA T\C 19:57, 30 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Never mind, I see that it was you. - ZLEA T\C 19:57, 30 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Moved to Draft Space

Hi, obviously you are spending a lot of time on Userboxes and Wikiprojects but unfortunately not so much on our content policies - I have moved the totally unreferenced Article which you published directly to mainspace to Draft:Space articles, there you can work on it until it is ready for submitting via Wikipedia:Articles for creation. I really suggest slowing down somewhat and take more time in studying in the info links Jack and I gave you. CommanderWaterford (talk) 17:53, 2 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@CommanderWaterford: It is a collection of articles, not an article itself. And I did read most of what you gave me. StarshipSLS (talk) 18:13, 2 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
@StarshipSLS Another thing you have to learn that we do not move discussions from one talk page to another and vice versa. Usually the discussion will be continued where it has started. And please stop pinging me every few minutes for the same reason. This is further not a collection of articles (Wikiproject are formally not Mainspace Articles) and also List Articles do need to be referenced and notable. CommanderWaterford (talk) 18:30, 2 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Ok! StarshipSLS (talk) 18:45, 2 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
I again would advise you to ask first before doing something you've never done before (e.g. making a list article in main space, this time). You've got some kind adopt-a-users who would be happy to answer such a question :) Leijurv (talk) 18:48, 2 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
