Copying within Wikipedia requires attribution
Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you copied or moved text from Washington Crossing the Delaware into Washington Crossing the Delaware (1851 painting). While you are welcome to re-use Wikipedia's content, here or elsewhere, Wikipedia's licensing does require that you provide attribution to the original contributor(s). When copying within Wikipedia, this is supplied at minimum in an edit summary at the page into which you've copied content, disclosing the copying and linking to the copied page, e.g.,. It is good practice, especially if copying is extensive, to also place a properly formatted copied template on the talk pages of the source and destination. The attribution has been provided for this situation, but if you have copied material between pages before, even if it was a long time ago, please provide attribution for that duplication. You can read more about the procedure and the reasons at Copying within Wikipedia. Thank you. If you are the sole author of the prose that was copied, attribution is not required. — Diannaa 🍁 (talk) 15:09, 22 December 2018 (UTC)

Overlinking
Please do not link random English words, as you did in Aquaman (film). This is known as overlinking, and it makes figuring out which links are actually useful rather difficult. For example, words like "critic", "lava", and "duel" should not be linked. NinjaRobotPirate (talk) 02:49, 19 April 2019 (UTC)

GOCE Feedback
Hi A21sauce; you asked for some guidance to help improve your copy-editing. Thank your for showing a willingness to do this; it shows you care about the quality of your edits. Firstly, I recommend reading some of the advice linked from the page here; the Guild's how-to page is a good place to start.

When you asked about reviewing other editors' work, I didn't recognise your user name so I checked some of your work during the Guild's April Copy-editing Blitz; amongst these:
 * Although you made some good edits at Aquaman; your edits were reverted because they introduced far too many wikilinks into the article. We don't normally link common terms; most readers will understand words like 'critics', 'visual effects', 'pirates' and 'lava'; see MOS:LINK. Here is the reversion.
 * You also changed ""

to:


 * In Raunch aesthetics, you changed "" to

This is a poor edit in two ways:
 * makes no sense, and doesn't mean the same thing as
 * You also could have changed "wasn't" to "was not", per WP:MOS.
 * In Villain, you wikilinked common words like 'motivation', 'catalyst', 'instinct' and 'English actor'. You also introduced a couple of typos ('readers of viewers' and 'Other have pointed out'), and missed several chances to improve the text.

You've also made lots of helpful changes to the articles, and the point of Blitzes is to improve articles, not to make them 'perfect'. I think you need to slow down and take your time to read and understand what the article is telling you before making changes. Check references if you're not sure what the text means (I do this quite often and it's often enlightening!); if you're working on a page from the Requests page, it's often helpful to ask the requester what the text means.

My concern about reviewing was that if you hadn't realised you made the above mistakes, you wouldn't have spotted them in copy-edits you were reviewing. I see you've been around WP for over ten years and I hope you don't think I'm pulling you down; nobody is perfect—I still make silly typos for time to time. Please continue copy-editing at the Guild; there are plenty of experienced editors who will be happy to give advice and help you out. Once you've worked on a few drives and blitzes, you'll feel more confident and if you still want to do some reviewing, please ask again; reviewers are always in short supply!

Best regards,  Baffle☿gab  00:28, 2 May 2019 (UTC)

3O Decline
Please note that I have declined your filing at WP:3O. As stated on that page, for a third opinion to be offered there must be a discussion at the article's Talk page. You are welcome to re-file after a thorough discussion has occurred if a third opinion is still needed. Alternately, please consider other forms of dispute resolution. Cheers. DonIago (talk) 20:20, 9 May 2019 (UTC)

Cynthia Bailey copyedit
Aoba47 is an experienced editor, and you are new to copyediting. This was uncalled-for; we put the same amount of effort into a copyedit, whether or not it's part of a drive or blitz. Please take constructive criticism on board. All the best,  Mini  apolis  13:41, 11 May 2019 (UTC)
 * I agree with . In this edit, for example, duplicate links were added, which contradicts the MOS:DUPLINK guideline. In this edit, citations supporting specific claims in a BLP were removed; it is a common practice in BLPs to source individual statements immediately after each statement, which helps with maintenance if information is added, removed, or reorganized. I recommend that you read the guideline linked above; it has some subtlety to it, so it is worth returning to periodically. Also please read MOS:OVERLINK; your edits linked common English words like "volunteer" and "divorce" used in their normal contexts, which is contrary to that guideline.


 * I also recommend reading the second sentence at WP:PERSONAL: "Comment on content, not on the contributor." Addressing a fellow editor as "dude" may be interpreted as disrespectful communication, especially if that editor is female. Maybe "dude" is an acceptable form of address toward people of all genders in your local culture, but Wikipedia is a global community, where words may be interpreted differently by people who come from cultures that are different from yours. I have found that it is best to adopt a neutral, albeit sometimes boring, tone when commenting on editors' contributions, and to avoid addressing other editors in the second person (i.e. "you", "dude", "sir", etc.) when making comments that are critical of that editor's contributions.


 * To be clear, I have made all of the mistakes that you have made in the edits above and in your recent conflict with multiple editors. We all started somewhere. The key things, in my view, are to learn, and grow, and become a positive contributor to the Wikipedia community. We are here to support you if you are willing to do those things. Respectfully, – Jonesey95 (talk) 20:23, 11 May 2019 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Akiko Ichikawa (disambiguation)


A tag has been placed on Akiko Ichikawa (disambiguation) requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G14 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is an orphaned disambiguation page which either
 * disambiguates only one extant Wikipedia page and whose title ends in "(disambiguation)" (i.e., there is a primary topic);
 * disambiguates zero extant Wikipedia pages, regardless of its title; or
 * is a redirect with a title ending in "(disambiguation)" that does not target a disambiguation page or page that has a disambiguation-like function.

Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such pages may be deleted at any time. Please see the disambiguation page guidelines for more information.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the. Mcampany (talk) 01:29, 9 December 2019 (UTC)
 * Hi! We usually only create disambiguation pages once multiple people with the same name have wikipedia pages. Once you've created other pages about women named Akiko Ichikawa, please feel free to recreate this page. For now it's a little too early. Thanks! Mcampany (talk) 01:31, 9 December 2019 (UTC)
 * You didn't even let me contest the deletion. And no one bothered to follow-up on the information I gave them about the others? Geez.--A21sauce (talk) 22:48, 9 December 2019 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Akiko Ichikawa (disambiguation)
Completely valid criticism: I feel like I've been spending my time batting away the skeptics of the second page, the Japanese woman. I feel like those editors would also use similar arguments about these other women because there's even less documentation about them but they *are* university-level scholars! I'm dealing with the COVID19 pandemic at the moment in my city, but I'll try to iron this out soon. Great escapism.~ ~ ~ ~ A21sauce (talk) 19:04, 19 March 2020 (UTC)
