A barnstar for you!

 * Thank you, that is very kind! Although in all fairness, I only reverted it to your version and removed some additional external links ;) Dajasj (talk) 21:05, 23 December 2021 (UTC)

MERLOT article
You seem to have removed some content from the MERLOT article. The material was taken from the merlot.org website which is Creative Commons (https://info.merlot.org/merlothelp/topic.htm#t=Policies_and_Practices.htm). It should be attributed and not deleted. I plan to revert your deletions and attribute the source unless you have a reasons why the content you deleted should remain off Wikipedia. Michaplot (talk) 23:24, 27 December 2021 (UTC)


 * Sorry, I missed the Creative Commons license. My mistake, I should've looked for that, but I did not expect it. You can revert it. Thanks for notifying me :) Dajasj (talk) 23:33, 27 December 2021 (UTC)

P&O Maritime Services
Hello, dajasj, I hope you are well! I see you made a change on P&O Maritime Services last year. Now this company has been merged with another company it is no more. I have a conflict of interest with the company so I wondered if you could help me update this article? I have added a change request on the article's Talk page. Many thanks in advance — Preceding unsigned comment added by Occasionalpedestrian (talk • contribs)

Parliamentary inquiry into natural gas extraction Groningen moved to draftspace
An article you recently created, Parliamentary inquiry into natural gas extraction Groningen, is not suitable as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. (?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of " " before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page.

 * I added one reliable independent source, there are plenty more available, it's discussed daily in Dutch newspapers (and some international). I already created Parlementaire enquête naar aardgaswinning Groningen, and intend to translate the rest soon. Dajasj (talk) 13:19, 31 August 2022 (UTC)

Restoration of List of MIL-STD-498 DIDs
I just observed that you removed the List of MIL-STD-498 DIDs.

First, I do not want to restore the external links. I agree that the external links were not proper.

However, as I worked on the MIL-STD-498 something seemed missing, particularly with respect to references in the text to other text that does not exist in the present version. Eventually, I looked up the change history and saw your deletion.

The MIL-STD-498 DIDs have cast a lasting influence on software for aerospace. Many companies that have long experience in producing software for civilian aircraft produce documentation that follows the formats defined in the.

Request: I wish to restore the list of MIL-STD-498 DIDs. My intention is to consider changing the list into a table that links each DID to the MIL-STD-498 that produces it. Would you accept the list being restored without the external links? IveGoneAway (talk) 22:29, 7 November 2022 (UTC)


 * Hi @IveGoneAway, thanks for asking! I was only there to remove External Links, and have no further knowledge of the subject to be honest. So go ahead :) Dajasj (talk) 22:31, 7 November 2022 (UTC)
 * Thanks! IveGoneAway (talk) 22:36, 7 November 2022 (UTC)

External links in "Mobile network codes in ITU region..."
Hi Dajasj, in those articles some networks without Wikipedia articles have external links. In some cases they can be removed because the network is easily found through Google. In other cases the external link serves to disambiguate the network from other networks with similar names. How do you propose to handle these cases without external links and without creating articles for all the networks of lesser importance? Cheers, Drahtlos (talk) 21:12, 29 November 2022 (UTC)


 * In those cases, I would recommend a reference to the official page of preferably to the source that states the information. Would that work? Dajasj (talk) 21:16, 29 November 2022 (UTC)

Hertogin Hedwigepolder moved to draftspace
An article you recently created, Hertogin Hedwigepolder, is not suitable as written to remain published. It needs more in-depth coverage about the subject itself, with citations from reliable, independent sources in order to show it meets WP:GNG. It should have at least three. And please remember that interviews, as primary sources, do not count towards GNG. (?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of " " before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption.

Onel 5969  TT me 12:39, 2 January 2023 (UTC)


 * @Onel5969, I will add more. But could you point me to where it says there should be at least three sources? That's new to me. Dajasj (talk) 12:47, 2 January 2023 (UTC)
 * There is no hard and fast rule, it depends on the quality and depth of the sourcing, but three is usually a safe number. For example, if a person has lengthy obituaries in both the New York Times and Wall Street Journal, those 2 sources will normally suffice. However, if both of those are short obits, they most likely would not. Rarely will an article pass review with a single source, although if it meets one of the underlying SNG's (e.g. WP:NACADEMIC), then it might.  Some SNG's hold more weight than others.  I hope this helps.  Onel 5969  TT me 13:11, 2 January 2023 (UTC)
 * Thanks for the clarification! I thought one source from NRC (comparable to NYT in the Netherlands) would be enough for now, but I'll quickly expand the article. Dajasj (talk) 13:17, 2 January 2023 (UTC)

WP:EL
Hello Dajasj, Thank you for your work here. With respect to WP:EL and the article Guichenotia apetala, you deleted the link to Ted Aplin without giving an edit summary. When I replaced the link with a edit summary, you reverted the change, referring to WP:EL. I want to point out the following:
 * WP:EL is a content guideline - not a policy;
 * The guideline states "Wikipedia articles may include external links to web pages outside Wikipedia";
 * The web page about Ted Aplin is a reliable source, published by the Australian government;
 * Without the link (I have now red-linked "Ted Aplin"), readers of the article will have no direct access to information about him, and an article about him is unlikely to be written in future;
 * In the course of writing articles about almost 6,000 articles about Australian native plants, I have included similar links to the same reliable source on a few dozen occasions, and not one has been removed before now.

Please give a concise explanation for your reversion here, or replace the link. Gderrin (talk) 08:47, 20 September 2023 (UTC)


 * Hi @Gderrin, thanks for contacting me! Sorry for not including a summary, I often forget that when doing those things.
 * Please note that the guidelines states:
 * With rare exceptions, external links should not be used in the body of an article.
 * I can't really find a reason for exception in this case in External_links. And I think your solution right now is perfect, a red link invites people to write the page. An external link does not. (I sometimes add the red links, but it is hard for me to judge whether someone is relevant without topic knowledge.) Dajasj (talk) 09:00, 20 September 2023 (UTC)
