Hello. In a recent edit to the page
Water Works Park (Tampa, Florida), you changed one or more words or styles from one national variety of English to another. Because Wikipedia has readers from all over the world, our policy is to
respect national varieties of English in Wikipedia articles.
For a subject exclusively related to the United Kingdom (for example, a famous British person), use British English. For something related to the United States in the same way, use American English. For something related to another English-speaking country, such as Canada, Australia, New Zealand, Ireland, India, or Pakistan use the variety of English used there. For an international topic, use the form of English that the original author of the article used.
In view of that, please don't change articles from one version of English to another, even if you don't normally use the version in which the article is written. Respect other people's versions of English. They, in turn, should respect yours. Other general guidelines on how Wikipedia articles are written can be found in the Manual of Style. If you have any questions about this, you can ask me on my talk page or visit the help desk. Thank you. Zeng8r ( talk) 18:24, 25 May 2021 (UTC)

Thank you for your recent articles, including Michał Głowiński, which I read with interest. When you create an extensive and well referenced article, you may want to have it featured on Wikipedia's main page in the Did You Know section. Articles included there will be read by thousands of our viewers. To do so, add your article to the list at T:TDYK. This can be also done through this helpful user script: User:SD0001/DYK-helper. Let me know if you need help, Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 11:01, 4 June 2021 (UTC)
Thank you for your recent articles, including Michał Głowiński, which I read with interest. When you create a new article, can you add the WikiProject assessment templates to the talk of that article? See the talk page of the article I mentioned for an example of what I mean. Usually it is very simple, you just add something like {{WikiProject Keyword}} to the article's talk, with keyword replaced by the associated WikiProject (ex. if it's a biography article, you would use WikiProject Biography; if it's a United States article, you would use WikiProject United States, and so on). You do not have to rate the article if you do not want to, others will do it eventually. Those templates are very useful, as they bring the articles to a WikiProject attention, and allow them to start tracking the articles through Wikipedia:Article alerts and other tools. For example, WikiProject Poland relies on such templates to generate listings such as Article Alerts, Popular Pages, Quality and Importance Matrix and the Cleanup Listing. Thanks to them, WikiProject members are more easily able to defend your work from deletion, or simply help try to improve it further. Feel free to ask me any questions if you'd like more information about using those talk page templates.

Hi I just wanted to say it's great to meet other editors, and I wanted to let you know that your intentions are well-meaning regarding the editing of NCCIH article, and that I too, respect science, the scientific method, and believe many forms of alternative medicine can be harmful and it is in the public interest for them to know that. Regarding the examples box, however, it's one example of NPOV violations that occur on these alternative medicine articles, where a large portion of statements are cherry-picked, often from "skeptics" blogs and podcasts. In the examples, it makes sense to show examples of experiments that had no effect, and it makes sense, proportionately, to show at least one that did have positive effects. That would provide a better sampling for a reader. I would love to hear your thoughts about that, though. Pyrrho the Skeptic ( talk) 18:00, 9 July 2021 (UTC)

G'day Akrasia25! I have noticed you changing some short descriptions on articles, and wondered if you had read WP:SHORTDESC? Importantly, WP:SDLENGTH which specifies that a short description should be short (ie no more than about 40 characters). Please try to stick close to those parameters and the other guidance on that page when making changes to short descriptions. Thanks so much, and enjoy your editing!

This is the third time you have added an unacceptable short description to this article, and the second time you have added exactly the same thing. Please don't edit war over this. Spinning Spark 20:46, 15 August 2021 (UTC)
Sorry I didn’t remember that I had already tried to put in a short description to this article. Can you put one one in since I obviously don’t know what it is? The article is a GA and we are trying to put in a SD for every article and this one keeps coming up in the list. Someone else is likely to come along and attempt it too. Akrasia25 ( talk) 21:03, 15 August 2021 (UTC)
Amplifier tuned on both sides of the stage coupling transformers" at 64 characters wasn't any better than the one originally inserted by Akrasia25.

Akrasia25, that four-letter word is possibly not the most helpful short description imaginable, and there are many imaginable replies to its creation. I'll just say that it would be much appreciated if you could either write a few words of short desc based on each article's lead – not difficult, and not time-consuming, if you feel like editing such things – or to leave well alone if you do not. Many thanks for your understanding and co-operation, Chiswick Chap ( talk) 13:52, 6 September 2021 (UTC)
If you have a specific article that could have used a better SD please go ahead but my point stands that NONE is the agreed WP policy on many articles with good descriptive titles. NONE is not a totally useless description in many cases. -- Akrasia25 ( talk) 14:11, 6 September 2021 (UTC)

Bibliographies, often combined with shortened inline footnotes linked by Template:Sfn, are found in a great many articles in Wikipedia. They are all but standard for articles about significant aircraft types (eg Airbus A340, Boeing 767) and ships (eg SS Normandie and RMS Olympic), and are also common in articles about automobile models (eg Brabham BT49 and Lexus LS).
Over many years, I have added many bibliographies to Wikipedia articles about automobiles and ships, and never once has such a bibliography been deleted.
Combining shortened inline footnotes with a bibliography is usually superior to having nothing more than inline footnotes, partly because a bibliography provides a more easily accessible list of printed sources than a references section populated only by a mess of assorted inline references (compare, eg, the Brabham BT49 article with the 300 SL article in its present state), and partly because a bibliography can include other sources that are not (yet) the subject of inline footnotes.
I do not consider WP:NOTDIRECTORY to be relevant to bibliographies, except where it says, right at the end, that "... for example, Wikipedia should not include a list of all books published by HarperCollins but may include a bibliography of books written by HarperCollins author Veronica Roth." That comment, in fact, simply emphasises the whole point of a bibliography in Wikipedia: to provide the reader with an easily accessible list of books on, or written by, the subject of the article. I have been a Wikipedia editor for more than a decade, and when I tell people that I edit Wikipedia, they often reply that the aspect of Wikipedia they find most useful is that Wikipedia articles provide them with easily accessible information about reliable sources on the subject matter of the relevant article.
I cannot agree that the articles on the Mercedes-Benz 300 SL and the 300 SLR are not candidates for GA or higher. The 300 SL is one of the most famous road cars ever made, and the 300 SLR is a more famous race car than the Brabham BT49, which has long been the subject of a GA article. Adding a bibliography to the 300 SL and SLR articles is one of the steps editors would normally take to improve an article that might eventually be GA. With that in mind, I intend, in the near future, to rearrange the references section of the 300 SL article, to add to the bibliography most of the books presently included in the inline references, and to link those books with the inline references using Template:Sfn. The 300 SLR article is even more in need of a referencing upgrade (as stated in the hatnote to that article): at the moment, almost none of its content is properly referenced, and a copyeditor could therefore justifiably delete almost all of that content. If you want to link the bibliography in either article to inline footnotes, then you are welcome to do so, preferably using Template:Sfn to make it easier for readers to move from the inline citation to the cited work in the bibliography.
As for the particular books I have so far included in the two bibliographies I added, these are all well-known books written and published this century by a well-known and respected author the subject of a Wikipedia article of his own ( Karl Ludvigsen). They are all still available for purchase brand new. No doubt there are other books that could be added to at least the 300 SL bibliography and linked to inline citations using Template:Sfn, but even so, that would not justify the deletion of the sources I have added.

Dear fellow editor,
I am Piotr Konieczny, a sociologist of new media at Hanyang University (and User:Piotrus on Wikipedia). I would like to better understand Wikipedia's volunteers who edit medical topics, many associated with the WikiProject Medicine, and known to create some of the highest quality content on Wikipedia. I hope that the lessons I can learn from you that I will present to the academic audience will benefit both the WikiProject Medicine (improving your understanding of yourself and helping to promote it and attract new volunteers) and the wider world of medical volunteering and academia. Open access copy of the resulting research will be made available at WikiProject's Medicine upon the completion of the project.
All questions are optional. The survey is divided into 4 parts: 1 - Brief description of yourself; 2 - Questions about your volunteering; 3 - Questions about WikiProject Medicine and 4 - Questions about Wikipedia's coverage of medical topics.
Please note that by filling out this questionnaire, you consent to participate in this research. The survey is anonymous and all personal details relevant to your experience will be kept private and will not be transferred to any third party.
I appreciate your support of this research and thank you in advance for taking the time to participate and share your experiences! If you have any questions at all, please feel free to contact me at my Wikipedia user page or through my email listed on the survey page (or by Wikipedia email this user function).
The survey is accessible through the LINK HERE.

Hello - my name is Susan Gerbic (Sgerbic) and I'm writing to you because at some point you joined Wikipedia:WikiProject Skepticism. This might have been months ago - or even years ago. With the best of intentions the project was created years ago, and sadly like many WikiProjects has started to go dormant. A group of us are attempting to revitalize the Skepticism project, already we have begun to clean up the main page and I've just redone the participant page. No one is in charge of this project, it is member directed, which might have been the reason it almost went dormant. We are attempting to bring back conversations on the talk page and have two subprojects as well, in the hopes that it might spark involvement and a way of getting to know each other better. One was created several years ago but is very well organized and a lot of progress was made, Wikipedia:WikiProject Skepticism/Skeptical organisations in Europe. The other I created a couple weeks ago, it is very simple and has a silly name Wikipedia:WikiProject Skepticism/Skepticism Stub Sub-Project Project (SSSPP). This sub-project runs from March 1 to June 1, 2022. We are attempting to rewrite skepticism stubs and add them to this list. As you can see we have already made progress.
The reason I'm writing to you now is because we would love to have you come back to the project and become involved, either by working on one of the sub-projects, proposing your own (and managing it), or just hanging out on the talk page getting to know the other editors and maybe donate some of your wisdom to some of the conversations. As I said, no one is in charge, so if you have something in mind you would like to see done, please suggest it on the talk page and hopefully others will agree. Please add the project to your watchlist, update your personal user page showing you are a proud member of WikiProject Skepticism. And DIVE in, this is what the work list looks like [1] frightening at first glance, but we have already started chipping away at it.
The Wikipedia:WikiProject Skepticism/Participants page has gone though a giant change - you may want to update your information. And of course if this project no longer interests you, please remove your name from the participant list, we would hate to see you go, but completely understand.
Thank you for your time, I hope to edit with you in the future. Sgerbic ( talk) 06:46, 17 March 2022 (UTC)

Hello. In a recent edit to the page
Water Works Park (Tampa, Florida), you changed one or more words or styles from one national variety of English to another. Because Wikipedia has readers from all over the world, our policy is to
respect national varieties of English in Wikipedia articles.
For a subject exclusively related to the United Kingdom (for example, a famous British person), use British English. For something related to the United States in the same way, use American English. For something related to another English-speaking country, such as Canada, Australia, New Zealand, Ireland, India, or Pakistan use the variety of English used there. For an international topic, use the form of English that the original author of the article used.
In view of that, please don't change articles from one version of English to another, even if you don't normally use the version in which the article is written. Respect other people's versions of English. They, in turn, should respect yours. Other general guidelines on how Wikipedia articles are written can be found in the Manual of Style. If you have any questions about this, you can ask me on my talk page or visit the help desk. Thank you. Zeng8r ( talk) 18:24, 25 May 2021 (UTC)

Thank you for your recent articles, including Michał Głowiński, which I read with interest. When you create an extensive and well referenced article, you may want to have it featured on Wikipedia's main page in the Did You Know section. Articles included there will be read by thousands of our viewers. To do so, add your article to the list at T:TDYK. This can be also done through this helpful user script: User:SD0001/DYK-helper. Let me know if you need help, Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 11:01, 4 June 2021 (UTC)
Thank you for your recent articles, including Michał Głowiński, which I read with interest. When you create a new article, can you add the WikiProject assessment templates to the talk of that article? See the talk page of the article I mentioned for an example of what I mean. Usually it is very simple, you just add something like {{WikiProject Keyword}} to the article's talk, with keyword replaced by the associated WikiProject (ex. if it's a biography article, you would use WikiProject Biography; if it's a United States article, you would use WikiProject United States, and so on). You do not have to rate the article if you do not want to, others will do it eventually. Those templates are very useful, as they bring the articles to a WikiProject attention, and allow them to start tracking the articles through Wikipedia:Article alerts and other tools. For example, WikiProject Poland relies on such templates to generate listings such as Article Alerts, Popular Pages, Quality and Importance Matrix and the Cleanup Listing. Thanks to them, WikiProject members are more easily able to defend your work from deletion, or simply help try to improve it further. Feel free to ask me any questions if you'd like more information about using those talk page templates.

Hi I just wanted to say it's great to meet other editors, and I wanted to let you know that your intentions are well-meaning regarding the editing of NCCIH article, and that I too, respect science, the scientific method, and believe many forms of alternative medicine can be harmful and it is in the public interest for them to know that. Regarding the examples box, however, it's one example of NPOV violations that occur on these alternative medicine articles, where a large portion of statements are cherry-picked, often from "skeptics" blogs and podcasts. In the examples, it makes sense to show examples of experiments that had no effect, and it makes sense, proportionately, to show at least one that did have positive effects. That would provide a better sampling for a reader. I would love to hear your thoughts about that, though. Pyrrho the Skeptic ( talk) 18:00, 9 July 2021 (UTC)

Amplifier tuned on both sides of the stage coupling transformers" at 64 characters wasn't any better than the one originally inserted by Akrasia25.

Akrasia25, that four-letter word is possibly not the most helpful short description imaginable, and there are many imaginable replies to its creation. I'll just say that it would be much appreciated if you could either write a few words of short desc based on each article's lead – not difficult, and not time-consuming, if you feel like editing such things – or to leave well alone if you do not. Many thanks for your understanding and co-operation, Chiswick Chap ( talk) 13:52, 6 September 2021 (UTC)
If you have a specific article that could have used a better SD please go ahead but my point stands that NONE is the agreed WP policy on many articles with good descriptive titles. NONE is not a totally useless description in many cases. -- Akrasia25 ( talk) 14:11, 6 September 2021 (UTC)

Bibliographies, often combined with shortened inline footnotes linked by Template:Sfn, are found in a great many articles in Wikipedia. They are all but standard for articles about significant aircraft types (eg Airbus A340, Boeing 767) and ships (eg SS Normandie and RMS Olympic), and are also common in articles about automobile models (eg Brabham BT49 and Lexus LS).
Over many years, I have added many bibliographies to Wikipedia articles about automobiles and ships, and never once has such a bibliography been deleted.
Combining shortened inline footnotes with a bibliography is usually superior to having nothing more than inline footnotes, partly because a bibliography provides a more easily accessible list of printed sources than a references section populated only by a mess of assorted inline references (compare, eg, the Brabham BT49 article with the 300 SL article in its present state), and partly because a bibliography can include other sources that are not (yet) the subject of inline footnotes.
I do not consider WP:NOTDIRECTORY to be relevant to bibliographies, except where it says, right at the end, that "... for example, Wikipedia should not include a list of all books published by HarperCollins but may include a bibliography of books written by HarperCollins author Veronica Roth." That comment, in fact, simply emphasises the whole point of a bibliography in Wikipedia: to provide the reader with an easily accessible list of books on, or written by, the subject of the article. I have been a Wikipedia editor for more than a decade, and when I tell people that I edit Wikipedia, they often reply that the aspect of Wikipedia they find most useful is that Wikipedia articles provide them with easily accessible information about reliable sources on the subject matter of the relevant article.
I cannot agree that the articles on the Mercedes-Benz 300 SL and the 300 SLR are not candidates for GA or higher. The 300 SL is one of the most famous road cars ever made, and the 300 SLR is a more famous race car than the Brabham BT49, which has long been the subject of a GA article. Adding a bibliography to the 300 SL and SLR articles is one of the steps editors would normally take to improve an article that might eventually be GA. With that in mind, I intend, in the near future, to rearrange the references section of the 300 SL article, to add to the bibliography most of the books presently included in the inline references, and to link those books with the inline references using Template:Sfn. The 300 SLR article is even more in need of a referencing upgrade (as stated in the hatnote to that article): at the moment, almost none of its content is properly referenced, and a copyeditor could therefore justifiably delete almost all of that content. If you want to link the bibliography in either article to inline footnotes, then you are welcome to do so, preferably using Template:Sfn to make it easier for readers to move from the inline citation to the cited work in the bibliography.
As for the particular books I have so far included in the two bibliographies I added, these are all well-known books written and published this century by a well-known and respected author the subject of a Wikipedia article of his own ( Karl Ludvigsen). They are all still available for purchase brand new. No doubt there are other books that could be added to at least the 300 SL bibliography and linked to inline citations using Template:Sfn, but even so, that would not justify the deletion of the sources I have added.

Dear fellow editor,
I am Piotr Konieczny, a sociologist of new media at Hanyang University (and User:Piotrus on Wikipedia). I would like to better understand Wikipedia's volunteers who edit medical topics, many associated with the WikiProject Medicine, and known to create some of the highest quality content on Wikipedia. I hope that the lessons I can learn from you that I will present to the academic audience will benefit both the WikiProject Medicine (improving your understanding of yourself and helping to promote it and attract new volunteers) and the wider world of medical volunteering and academia. Open access copy of the resulting research will be made available at WikiProject's Medicine upon the completion of the project.
All questions are optional. The survey is divided into 4 parts: 1 - Brief description of yourself; 2 - Questions about your volunteering; 3 - Questions about WikiProject Medicine and 4 - Questions about Wikipedia's coverage of medical topics.
Please note that by filling out this questionnaire, you consent to participate in this research. The survey is anonymous and all personal details relevant to your experience will be kept private and will not be transferred to any third party.
I appreciate your support of this research and thank you in advance for taking the time to participate and share your experiences! If you have any questions at all, please feel free to contact me at my Wikipedia user page or through my email listed on the survey page (or by Wikipedia email this user function).
The survey is accessible through the LINK HERE.

Hello - my name is Susan Gerbic (Sgerbic) and I'm writing to you because at some point you joined Wikipedia:WikiProject Skepticism. This might have been months ago - or even years ago. With the best of intentions the project was created years ago, and sadly like many WikiProjects has started to go dormant. A group of us are attempting to revitalize the Skepticism project, already we have begun to clean up the main page and I've just redone the participant page. No one is in charge of this project, it is member directed, which might have been the reason it almost went dormant. We are attempting to bring back conversations on the talk page and have two subprojects as well, in the hopes that it might spark involvement and a way of getting to know each other better. One was created several years ago but is very well organized and a lot of progress was made, Wikipedia:WikiProject Skepticism/Skeptical organisations in Europe. The other I created a couple weeks ago, it is very simple and has a silly name Wikipedia:WikiProject Skepticism/Skepticism Stub Sub-Project Project (SSSPP). This sub-project runs from March 1 to June 1, 2022. We are attempting to rewrite skepticism stubs and add them to this list. As you can see we have already made progress.
The reason I'm writing to you now is because we would love to have you come back to the project and become involved, either by working on one of the sub-projects, proposing your own (and managing it), or just hanging out on the talk page getting to know the other editors and maybe donate some of your wisdom to some of the conversations. As I said, no one is in charge, so if you have something in mind you would like to see done, please suggest it on the talk page and hopefully others will agree. Please add the project to your watchlist, update your personal user page showing you are a proud member of WikiProject Skepticism. And DIVE in, this is what the work list looks like [1] frightening at first glance, but we have already started chipping away at it.
The Wikipedia:WikiProject Skepticism/Participants page has gone though a giant change - you may want to update your information. And of course if this project no longer interests you, please remove your name from the participant list, we would hate to see you go, but completely understand.
Thank you for your time, I hope to edit with you in the future. Sgerbic ( talk) 06:46, 17 March 2022 (UTC)

Hi Akrasia25, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like it here and decide to stay. Because I saw you are working on spaceflight-related articles, I thought the general intro, spaceflight collaboration and the Constellation program pages would be helpful to you. Happy editing!

An article you recently created,
List of museums in Kosovo, is not suitable as written to remain published. It needs more citations from
reliable,
independent sources. (
?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (
verifiability is of
central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to
draftspace (with a prefix of "Draft:
" before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's
general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page.
