Hello. Re: Jimmy Buffett occupation_ I do not know how to edit. So I am asking someone who knows how to consider this, if possible- Jimmy Buffett in at least one concert in 2008, mentioned that his passport showed his occupation as "Summer Extender" It might have been tongue in cheek , or just for the crowd, but thinking about his music and his life, I think it would be awesome if we could add that to his "occupation". He certainly extended summer for his millions of fans. I know that this is not a true occupation per the conventional world, but JB was anything but conventional. Let me know what you think. -- SoCalGuy71 ( talk) 00:12, 9 September 2023 (UTC)
Hi, thanks for being an editor here at Wikipedia! I was hoping to better understand what is or isn't a "reliable source." I linked to an article interpreting a written work and containing citations to the written work itself -- I've written professionally my entire career. The content I linked to is also reviewed by third-parties before publication, so I wanted to see if this information makes the source sufficiently "reliable" for citation -- please feel free to sanity check the citations yourself! The underlying work is available for free here:

My first issue was that I didn't include enough citations (now hopefully fixed!) but I've now been told that it's not notable enough for inclusion. I'm not sure what to do about that because that feels like a matter of perspective - she discovered a new fern hybrid that's named after her - that's amazing!

Hi! I saw that you've removed the Buzzworthy Tattoo site as a reference from a bunch of tattoo articles, after @ Cnyssen edited some of them. I have no affiliation with this website or author, and I find it an adequately reliable source for non-controversial claims about tattoo history (not about living people). Considering the criteria at Wikipedia:RSSELF: even though this is a self-published website, Nyssen is a published expert on the topic. Just as a quick example, see references to her work in these articles and this one. So I would like to restore some of those references.
I totally get what you're trying to do with discouraging self-linking, but I would also consider WP:DONTBITE: many Wikipedia articles about tattooing and tattoo history need a ton of work, so I hope for us to welcome people and provide tips about constructive editing without self-promotion, rather than discouraging contributions of people who have a lot of expertise.

HI Fieryninja. Question - I'm trying to edit the copyright and licensing info on the image uploaded. From what I read, it says if I click on the image it should lead me to the description page, but when I click on the image its only bringing me to the Edit: Infomusic box page. Thx! -- Roundstein ( talk) 13:32, 17 October 2023 (UTC)
Thanks for uploading File:Link With Master Sword Super Smash Bros.png. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).
Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described in section F5 of the criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. -- B-bot ( talk) 17:17, 18 October 2023 (UTC)

Feel free to contact me with any questions or comments you might have during this period. Message delivered by ChristieBot, on behalf of Jaguar -- Jaguar ( talk) 15:00, 28 October 2023 (UTC)
The article Link (The Legend of Zelda) you nominated as a good article has passed ; see Talk:Link (The Legend of Zelda) for comments about the article, and Talk:Link (The Legend of Zelda)/GA2 for the nomination. Well done! If the article has never appeared on the Main Page as a "Did you know" item, and has not appeared within the last year either as "Today's featured article", or as a bold link under "In the news" or in the "On this day" prose section, you can nominate it within the next seven days to appear at DYK. Bolded names with dates listed at the bottom of the "On this day" column do not affect DYK eligibility.

I'd argue paid content is part of MMORPGs and makes sense to include. However linking the game's own website to reference the benefits feels advertising, and I couldn't find other sources.

Hi! I've been trying to create a page about a Victorian botanist who discovered a rare fern which is named after her. My first issue was that I didn't include enough citations (now hopefully fixed!) but I've now been told that it's not notable enough for inclusion. I'm not sure what to do about that because that feels like a matter of perspective - she discovered a new fern hybrid that's named after her - that's amazing!

Hi! I saw that you've removed the Buzzworthy Tattoo site as a reference from a bunch of tattoo articles, after @ Cnyssen edited some of them. I have no affiliation with this website or author, and I find it an adequately reliable source for non-controversial claims about tattoo history (not about living people). Considering the criteria at Wikipedia:RSSELF: even though this is a self-published website, Nyssen is a published expert on the topic. Just as a quick example, see references to her work in these articles and this one. So I would like to restore some of those references.
I totally get what you're trying to do with discouraging self-linking, but I would also consider WP:DONTBITE: many Wikipedia articles about tattooing and tattoo history need a ton of work, so I hope for us to welcome people and provide tips about constructive editing without self-promotion, rather than discouraging contributions of people who have a lot of expertise.
