User talk:Pfaffjoanna

March 2020
Hello, and thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. This is just a note to let you know that I've moved the draft that you were working on to Draft:Jerzy Czarnecki, from its old location at User:Pfaffjoanna/sandbox/Jerzy Czarnecki. This has been done because the Draft namespace is the preferred location for Articles for Creation submissions. Please feel free to continue to work on it there. If you have any questions about this, you are welcome to ask me on my talk page. Thank you. Sulfurboy (talk) 16:44, 23 March 2020 (UTC)

Help me!
Good evening, I was trying to create on my Father under the headline 'Jerzy Czarnecki'. I was asked to create citations, otherwise the text would not be published. Now, I don't know how to do so. It also seems that there is a problem that my user name is Pfaffjoanna while I am know at Wikipedia as 'Joanna Pfaff-Czarnecka'

Please help me with...

With many thanks Pfaffjoanna
 * Hello, Joanna. The first thing that you should be aware of is this site's Conflict of Interest policy. Writing an article about your father may not seem like a bad thing to you, but there are a host of reasons (spelled out in detail at that link) as to why it is rarely a good idea. I can suggest that you use the requested articles feature but please be aware that there is quite a backlog there. Looking further at the article, I notice that it is written more as a memorial or remembrance than an encyclopedia biography. You may want to read Your first Article before doing anything else.  I realize this is probably not the help you were looking for but it is important for you to know.  Eggishorn (talk) (contrib) 18:17, 24 March 2020 (UTC)


 * First, regarding names, there is no problem with having a username of "Phfaffjoanna" - usernames are seldom exactly the same as a person's legal name.
 * With respect to the draft about your father. There are a number of problems.
 * You have not declared, on your user page, your connection with your subject. This conflict of interest declaration is important for how your edits are treated.
 * Since your father's life was the subject of a book and a film, there's a good chance he qualifies as notable for Wikipedia. That can't just be assumed, though. Your draft needs to establish that notability through proper referencing.
 * Right now, your draft has no references as recognized by Wikipedia's software. There is a guide at referencing for beginners that can help you learn how to do this.
 * Although not absolutely required, it would be best if each sentence of your draft carried a citation to a specific published source that a reader could use to verify the information. If your references are to the book, please include a page number. While there are probably things you know about your father, and would like to include in the article, I'm afraid they cannot be included unless there is a published source to verify them.
 * Last, when we are looking at an encyclopedic biography, we expect to see the events in a person's life laid out in prose, not as a bullet list as if this were a CV or resume.
 * I hope this helps. On Wikipedia, creating a whole new article is one of the hardest tasks you could undertake. Please don't get frustrated by the seeming bureaucratic barriers that stand in your way.  — jmcgnh (talk) (contribs) 18:38, 24 March 2020 (UTC)
