Hi Missbellanash! Thanks for contributing to Wikipedia. We hope to see you there!
Delivered by HostBot on behalf of the Teahouse hosts 16:03, 6 July 2021 (UTC) |
Thank you! This is really appreciated we're all going through a 'tough time'. I am constantly working on the references, I can't be positive at this time, but it appears there may be enough secondary sources for it to qualify. I just received additional information that I didn't expect, it just showed up! I would also like to build a 'list of recordings' for her, in whatever form they're in, in addition to her bio - background. Again, thank you very much!

Why have Wikipedia made this so complicated!!? ?
I just want to create a page on Valerie Broussard. I already have a career and certainly don't have time for a 1000 deep pile of basic tut's or time to read all of these weirdly formatted, overly linked "learning Wiki" pages, this looks like monospaced garbage and I hate it. Can't even navigate in a fashion common to every website! Missbellanash ( talk) 01:00, 6 July 2021 (UTC)
Hey!, thank you so much for the response. I'm apparently in the source, wiki source I suppose, so I do see how syntax for this page is written, just this much will be helpful & I'll be sure to turn it on when I continue with Valerie's page. I have written a format and flow document-design to serve as a style guide, partly from other musical pages so I'm not stepping into the dark. That will be helpful and should help keep it congruent. Valerie's bio has some history to it, I think the length could be long-ish - in a couple of sections, if I list her album with some pertinent details, adding some projects she's worked on. I'm not motivated to attempt customizations and really don't know what form that would take here. 😂
If my note seemed frantic, that's because it was. I was frustrated when fed a 'help' response page with 40 sections each with about 40 links, most to {helpful-pages} that linked even deeper.
Whatever they've done with the software has not made it user-friendly, no one I know of would step into this. Well, that difficulty aside, I committed to the project so I'll see it through. I think the best way to help me would be for you to be as critical as you would with anyone else! I know how to accept criticism and work my errors and mistakes off. Okay, signing off, and again thank you very much, you write well!

I'm pretty much of a policy wonk, rules and conditions for this site are not a problem (finding things you need to read, often are!) Thank you for the response and advice. Take care!

Hey, Missbellahnash! We're very careful about how we talk about living people here on Wikipedia, because what we say can cause real harm. I removed some things you said at the Teahouse because they were unsupported negative assertions about a living person. —valereee ( talk) 18:36, 5 August 2021 (UTC)
Hi User:Valereee - if you remember could you advise me, in a general way, what the content was? I understand there is a possibility, but I have nothing to go by. Thanks, either way I appreciate it!! Missbellanash ( talk) 10:40, 10 August 2021 (UTC)
User:Valereee Thanks for the info, I read it and I concur, that read like too much twitter. Thanks! Missbellanash ( talk) 11:32, 10 August 2021 (UTC)
Hi Missbellanash! I noticed that you recently marked an edit as minor at
Centers for Disease Control and Prevention that may not have been. "Minor edit" has a very specific definition on Wikipedia – it refers only to superficial edits that could never be the subject of a dispute, such as
typo corrections or reverting obvious
vandalism. Any edit that changes the meaning of an article is not a minor edit, even if it only concerns a single word. Please see
Help:Minor edit for more information. Thank you.

Yeah my edit added to the article. I'll make sure to not select that by default. Thanks! Missbellanash ( talk) 21:52, 10 August 2021 (UTC)
Hi! Can we hide or remove the long color banner on the draft? Thanks Missbellanash ( talk) 07:46, 11 August 2021 (UTC) Whoo, this looks as if it did something different than I expected. If I have made a mess I am so sorry. I just wanted to ask a question. Missbellanash ( talk) 07:49, 11 August 2021 (UTC)
Hi Batty! I can't see how to get it there? Missbellanash ( talk) 07:31, 25 August 2021 (UTC)
Ok, got this. If you're seeing something that seems promotional it is 100% from shooting for a conversational tone. Missbellanash ( talk) 00:32, 28 August 2021 (UTC)
In this edit, you replied to ColinFine and me within a page that was already prefaced with This is an archive of past discussions. Do not edit the contents of this page. If you wish to start a new discussion or revive an old one, please do so on the current talk page. I imagine that ColinFine would respond, and I certainly would respond, if you asked at WP:Teahouse. In future, please don't edit archive pages.
In this edit to your own talk page (this page), you inserted your comments within Bonadea's comments. (I notice that you also wrote on Bonadea's talk page. Good.) I suggest that you rearrange your changes to Bonadea's comments here. In future, please don't insert comments (even if signed) within others' comments. -- Hoary ( talk) 22:30, 28 August 2021 (UTC)
