Draft:Save Cambodia's Wildlife comment
Hi AnRoCa. In response to this comment you left at Draft:Save Cambodia's Wildlife, any page on Wikipedia can, in principle, techinically be edited by any editor at any time. Draft are not owned by anyone in particular (even their creators) as explained in WP:OWN, so often another editor will occasionally try and improve/fix problems they notice in a draft in good faith. In such cases, it is not necessary to discuss things draft's creator or get permission in advance. In this particluar case, the editor who seems to have made the changes is so if you want to know why those changes were made, you should look at the edit sums left in the page's history or ask Maproom about them on the draft's talk page. Just for reference, many experienced editors do tend to avoid editing a draft unless specifically asked to do so as a courtesy, but many others also are just bold and make improvements they feel is necessary. Neither approach is right and neither approach is wrong. The idea behind collaborative editing is to try and work together to improve articles, etc. so that they meet Wikipedia's MOS and relevant policies and guidelines. This is a very important point to understand when it comes to Wikipedia because any attempts to try and exert ownership of article content usually quickly leads to problems with other editors. -- Marchjuly (talk) 04:27, 12 April 2017 (UTC)

Hi Marchjuly, thank you for the clarification. I didn't know that :( I am an absolute beginner. I thought editing is possible once the article is "live"...Thanks again so much for your patience and explanation :-) Andrea
 * As I posted, some exprerienced editors will ask as a courtesy before editing a draft, while others will just make improvements. Since we are discussing a draft, there's lots of wiggle room so if you don't like the changes which were made you can (1) simply undo them, or (2) discuss them with the person who made them. I'm pretty sure that Maproom was just trying to help out, and not trying to take control of things. Serious violations of policies and guidelines involving WP:BLP or WP:COPYVIO in drafts are usually removed immediately once they are noticed, but formatting matters, etc. are not considered serious problems at the draft stage so many people just leave them as is. -- Marchjuly (talk) 05:19, 12 April 2017 (UTC)

Noted, Marchjuly, I was not offended, just confused. I am aware that the article now has better chances of passing :-) Andrea

Draft:Save Cambodia's Wildlife
Hi AnRoCa,

I am the editor who made extensive changes to the the draft. I was aiming to get it to comply with Wikipedia's policies, and to increase its chances of being accepted for a move to article space. But I shall respect your wishes, and do no more. Maproom (talk) 08:19, 12 April 2017 (UTC)

Hi Maproom, thanks for letting me know and i appreciate your help. I was just irritated, because it didn't receive any information. I do hope i can contact you for help. Thanks again, i know you are trying to help :-) AnRoCa (talk) 08:35, 12 April 2017 (UTC)

The answer to on your draft is given in the hidden notes included in  by the editor who was trying to help you. Note also that I had corrected the heading levels a few days ago, to comply with the Manual of Style; you subsequently reinserted the errors which had been corrected, so someone had to correct them again. A number of people are trying to help you, so you need to read the changes which they are introducing, and understand what they are saying in their edit summaries. --David Biddulph (talk) 05:59, 19 April 2017 (UTC)

Hi David, thanks for your help. I really appreciate it and don't want to seem unthankful - i am not! Please understand i am new and try to read as much as i can about the rules, but don't know all of them (yet). It took me a moment to understand that the headlines have to be the way they have been corrected. I will leave them like that. Where do I find the EDIT SUMMARY though to find out about the hidden notes? I'm sorry not to be smarter. AnRoCa (talk) 1.28, 19 April 2017 (UTC)


 * Click on the "View history" tab at the top of the draft page. Note that in my message the words "edit summaries" were in blue, indicating that they were a wikilink. --David Biddulph (talk) 06:34, 19 April 2017 (UTC)


 * Hi AnRoCa. It was me who made the edit that David Biddulph is referring to above. I only did so to fix the section levels and put things in their proper locations. The hidden notes were probably a little to hard for a fairly new editor such as yourself to catch. I should have just posted something on the draft's talk page instead. Anyway, the reason you've got references showing up in the "Further reading" section is because you've added citations to the entries. You don't really need to do that as explained in Wikipedia:Further reading. Just provide the information referred to in WP:CITEHOW without any citations.
 * As for the hidden notes themselves, you can only see them in the editing window. They are little messages I left which look something like except I actually added some suggestions as the "Hidden note". --  Marchjuly (talk) 06:37, 19 April 2017 (UTC)

Hi Marchjuly, which official links are ok to use? The official website and facebook? I've seen other pages do that as well. Thanks for your recommendation. AnRoCa (talk) 11.11, 21 April 2017 (UTC)
 * Generally, only a link to the main official website is considered acceptable as explained in WP:ELMINOFFICIAL -- Marchjuly (talk) 05:54, 21 April 2017 (UTC)
 * i now only left the offical website. should i leave it as sole entry under External links or move it somewhere else? AnRoCa (talk) 11.29, 21 April 2017 (UTC)

Hi Marchjuly again, For further reading i am still unsure how to best link to the references. Would you kindly show me one example? When I list the study, my intention was to show the links where i found them... THANKS A MILLION, Andrea AnRoCa (talk) 11.14, 21 April 2017 (UTC)
 * Not sure if I understand this question. You don't really need to add citations to a "Further reading" section. If there's something you wish to cite about a particular entry, then consider figuring out a way to add that information somewhere within the body of the article. A FR section entry really only needs to be a simple bullet list of these books or whatever. You should try to include as much information about the entry as possible as explained in WP:CITEHOW. An example of what I mean can be seen at Viking metal, a featured article which appeared on the Wikipedia's Main Page as "Today's featured article" on March 1, 2017. -- Marchjuly (talk) 06:18, 21 April 2017 (UTC)
 * but i don't use citations?! should i remove the in-wiki links at further reading? sorry, i am lost. AnRoCa (talk) 1.42, 21 April 2017 (UTC)

Hi Marchjuly the third, for "Networks & Membership" you also recommended a different kind of presentation / linking. Could you show me an example how to best do that as well? Thanks, Andrea AnRoCa (talk) 11.17, 21 April 2017 (UTC)
 * Wikipedia articles should not have external links embedded into the article content like this as explained in WP:CS and WP:EL. If any of those organziations you've listed have stand-alone Wikipedia articles written about them, then you should simply wikilink them. If they do not, then you should maybe considering not including them because it's possible they are not Wikipedia notable enough for a stand-alone article. Another option would be to drop the list and simply write out the section as prose as explained in WP:PROSE. You can then use inline citations to reliable sources which show the connection between SCW and these organizations. The connection should be encyclopedically relevant to the reader per WP:NOTEVERYTHING, and not just attempt to mention these organizations by name somewhere within the article in order to try and enhance the notability of the SCW. -- Marchjuly (talk) 06:07, 21 April 2017 (UTC)
 * i edited it as suggested. however, none of the networks have wikipedia entries. is it better to remove them or leave them as is now? thanksAnRoCa (talk) 11.30, 21 April 2017 (UTC)

New question: is the order 1. References, 2. Further reading, 3. External links correct? I have seen and it makes more sense that 1. External Links, 2. Further Reading, 3. References, no? AnRoCa (talk) 1.43, 21 April 2017 (UTC)
 * Please refer to WP:ORDER. -- Marchjuly (talk) 07:29, 21 April 2017 (UTC)

Save Cambodias Wildlife logo
Please see the note I left at c:User talk:AnRoCa about this logo. You cannot really just upload logos to Commons under a "CC-by-sa" license without providing some sort of verification that the file has been released under such a license. This can be done in a couple of ways as explained in c:COM:OTRS. This might seem an unnecessary bit of red tape, but try and remember that a "CC-by-sa-XX" license basically allows anyone anywhere in the world to download the file from Commons and use for any purpose, including commercial; moreover, once a file has been released under such a license, it cannot be revoked or canceled. Therefore, Commons wants to be 100% sure that the copyright holder understands this and agrees to the terms of the license. -- Marchjuly (talk) 04:37, 28 March 2018 (UTC)


 * Dear Marchjuly, thank you for the note and your help. I organized to send an email for confirmation as stated in the recommended link -- AnRoCa (talk) 11:57, 28 March 2018 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by 202.79.26.118 (talk)
 * Hi AnRoCa. Whoever sends in the email should receive a reply which contains an OTRS ticket number. This is sort of like a reference number that you can use to find out information if ncessary. OTRS verification can sometimes take sometime, so you need to be patient. If the file is by chance deleted before verification is completed, do not re-upload the file since this will only confuse things. Deleted files are not gone forever; they are only hidden from public view and can easily be restored once whatever issues they have have been sorted out.
 * Finally, please try to remember to log in when you post. -- Marchjuly (talk) 06:05, 28 March 2018 (UTC)


 * Noted with lots of thanks, Marchjuly. -- AnRoCa (talk) 10:10, 29 March 2018 (UTC)
