Mentorship
Hey, Awsomaw. Sorry, I didn't intend to ignore your message. If you're still interested, I'd be happy to help you out. Regards, Swarm  talk  23:22, 1 November 2018 (UTC) :Hey Swarm, thanks. I deleted my message because I really didn't know if I had time for a mentorship; not sure what it implies. If you can help me though, if you could look through some of my past edits that would be great, I have many questions regarding them.
 * 1. I don't really know if what I'm doing is procedurally correct and stuff, maybe I should go on the talk pages of the articles before making big formatting and copyedit changes? I thought those articles were small so I didn't think many people would care, but again, I'm not sure if that's procedurally correct.
 * 2. And after copyediting, I thought I've finished so I just popped the copyedit tag right off of the article, should I keep it there for other people to review it first? not entirely sure.
 * 3. And lastly, I've been trying to read the deletion policy pages, but it's really complicated and difficult to read, even the Help: one... is there an easier way to explain it? Thanks very much if you answer this Awsomaw (talk) 00:27, 2 November 2018 (UTC)
 * I'm a big boy now! Awsomaw (talk) 18:08, 24 December 2018 (UTC)

File:The Elements TobyMac official album cover.jpg
Hi, I'm RonBot, a script that checks new non-free file uploads. I have found that the subject image that you recently uploaded was more than 5% in excess of the Non-free content guideline size of 100,000 pixels. I have tagged the image for a standard reduction, which (for jpg/gif/png/svg files) normally happens within a day. Please check the reduced image, and make sure that the image is not excessively corrupted. Other files will be added to Category:Wikipedia non-free file size reduction requests for manual processing. There is a full seven-day period before the original oversized image will be hidden; during that time you might want to consider editing the original image yourself (perhaps an initial crop to allow a smaller reduction or none at all). A formula for calculation the desired size can be found at WP:Image resolution, along with instructions on how to tag the image in the rare cases that it requires an oversized image (typically about 0.2% of non-free uploads are tagged as necessarily oversized). Please contact the bot owner if you have any questions, or you can ask them at Wikipedia talk:Non-free content. See User:RonBot for info on how to not get these messages.

Speedy deletion nomination of Draft:Sovereign Grace Music


A tag has been placed on Draft:Sovereign Grace Music, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page seems to be unambiguous advertising which only promotes a company, group, product, service, person, or point of view and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become encyclopedic. Please read the guidelines on spam and FAQ/Organizations 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. Jalen D. Folf  (talk)  21:14, 10 April 2019 (UTC)


 * Sure, that's fine. It was a template that I've never had the time to research. It does meet criteria if anyone cares to make the article though. Awsomaw (talk) 23:51, 10 April 2019 (UTC)

Template:Did you know nominations/Etienne Karita
Hi, I left a note on the nomination page, and then went to the nominator's talk page to leave a note there. I wonder why your note on his talk page has the header "DYK nomination"? Did you use the special script located just above the edit window:
 * Etienne Karita
 * That will provide a subhead which includes the article name. Best, Yoninah (talk) 23:07, 11 July 2020 (UTC)
 * , thanks for the corrections. I didn't know initially see that that template could be expanded for some reason until later, after this review. Must've missed it somehow. Also thanks for the correction on the other DYK altblurb. Thought it wasn't that big of a change, but now I know. Awsomaw (talk) 23:16, 11 July 2020 (UTC)
 * It wasn't that big of a change, but now "Rwanda" is repeated twice in the hook. Please feel free to encourage nominators, especially new ones, to write really good hooks. Thanks, Yoninah (talk) 23:29, 11 July 2020 (UTC)
 * Got it! Awsomaw (talk) 00:31, 12 July 2020 (UTC)

DYK reviews
Hi, if all you do is add a source or do some copyediting to get an article ready for the main page, you can go ahead and approve the nomination. But if you add a lot of sources, or do serious rewriting, you should add your name to the DYK co-creation credits and call for a new reviewer. Does that make sense? Yoninah (talk) 21:23, 28 July 2020 (UTC)
 * It does. Just didn't know where the line is drawn, this explanation is clearer now. Thanks, Awsomaw (talk) 21:36, 28 July 2020 (UTC)

Hi again. I just made some amendments to my article in response to your notes. Hopefully it is now in a good condition, but please let me know if I need to make any additional edits. Many thanks Welsh Hamlet (talk) 06:42, 25 August 2020 (UTC)

Article Request
Hi Awsomaw! I noticed you were an instrumental editor in the creation of TobyMac's The Elements album article. He's one of my favorite artists, and he recently came out with a new album, titled The Lost Demos. I'm not in a position to write this article myself, I've only written a couple an joined about a year ago. I found some sources:
 * http://tobymac.com/the-lost-demos-ep-out-today/ News release on TobyMac's site
 * https://www1.cbn.com/hollywoodinsight/tobymac-surprises-fans-lost-demos-EP CBN.com "TobyMac Surprises Fans with The Lost Demos EP
 * https://twitter.com/tobymac/status/1258540536027213825?lang=en TobyMac's Twitter post about The Lost Demos
 * I'd be happy to make this article, but it'd be during my Thanksgiving break, so in three weeks. If nobody gets to it by then, then I can do it. But currently I'm bogged down with schoolwork, and as you can tell from my contributions page, I haven't done any major edits in quite a few months. Awsomaw (talk) 20:16, 30 October 2020 (UTC)
 * Thank you for replying so soon! I'll see if I can find someone else to do it, and I can give you the link to the draft page in a few weeks. Thank you! Dswitz10734 (talk) 12:33, 31 October 2020 (UTC)

WP:AFC Helper News
Hello! I wanted to drop a quick note for all of our AFC participants; nothing huge and fancy like a newsletter, but a few points of interest. Short and sweet, but there's always more to discuss at WT:AFC. Stop on by, maybe review a draft on the way? Whether you're one of our top reviewers, or haven't reviewed in a while, I want to thank you for helping out in the past and in the future. Cheers, Primefac, via MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 15:59, 16 February 2022 (UTC)
 * AFCH will now show live previews of the comment to be left on a decline.
 * The template db-afc-move has been created - this template is similar to db-move when there is a redirect in the way of an acceptance, but specifically tells the patrolling admin to let you (the draft reviewer) take care of the actual move.

Germ theory
In the article of germ theory of history section it's given that ===Ancient India=== In the Sushruta Samhita, a Sanskrit medical treatise written around the sixth century BCE, the ancient Indian physician Sushruta wrote the Nidána Sthána chapter on pathology theorizing that "leprosy, fever, consumption, diseases of the eye, and other infectious diseases spread from one person to another by sexual union, physical contact, eating together, sleeping together, sitting together, and the use of same clothes, garlands, and pastes." whether the citation is relevant or not. David dclork li (talk) 14:33, 24 April 2023 (UTC)
 * Okay? And what do you want me to do? The only time I edited that article was to remove vandalism. I'm not familiar with its contents. Awsomaw (talk) 14:49, 24 April 2023 (UTC)
 * I just wanted you to check the reference of the statement whether it is mentioned or not. David dclork li (talk) 14:51, 24 April 2023 (UTC)
 * Sorry, I don't think I'm going to check that for you. You can check it yourself and make a decision about this with your own judgment :). I'm not really an active editor, and this is not an article that I specialize in.Awsomaw (talk) 14:56, 24 April 2023 (UTC)
