On getting help from wikiprojects
Most pages on wikipedia have both a content page (usually Article, "Project page", etc.) and a talk page. If you click on the bluelink "WikiProject Software" you can see at the top left a tab called "Talk". You are entering the hidden foundations of Wikipedia, where most of the consensus-building and collaboration with others take place. Once you're in the talk page, there is a tab in the top called "New section". You can start a section there titled something like "Newbie asking for help with my first draft". Do you know how to link between wikipedia pages? Santacruz &#8258;  Please ping me!  14:10, 3 January 2022 (UTC)


 * Additionally, I'd highly recommend you visit the wikipedia teahouse. It's a very non-judgement space filled with experienced editors like me that are very happy to help and guide you, and a great space for any question you may have. Wikipedia sometimes feels like an endless directory of guidelines and policies, and that's hard to grasp at first. However, as long as you assume good faith from others and remember we're all here to improve global access to free information, you'll do fine :) Santacruz  &#8258;  Please ping me!  14:25, 3 January 2022 (UTC)
 * A primer for newcomers is also a good essay that might be useful to you. Regarding your request for help at WP:Software, I would also create a similar section in the talk pages of WikiProject Apps, WikiProject Computer science, and WikiProject Internet if you don't get a reply in a few days. All you need to do is explain you want some help with your draft, there is no need to apologize there as well. Everyone understands you're just trying to help out :) Santacruz  &#8258;  Please ping me!  14:40, 3 January 2022 (UTC)
 * I have noted them. Thank you very much. I will to get used to this for the sake of myself and others. Bertverse (talk) 15:09, 3 January 2022 (UTC)

I saw you mention Indonesia on your userpage. You might wanna check out WikiProject Indonesia. Santacruz &#8258;  Please ping me!  15:37, 3 January 2022 (UTC)

You are really kind to me. Noted. I really thank for your aids. Grateful to know you. May I ask for your help if I meet difficulties about Wikipedia in the future? Bertverse (talk) 15:42, 3 January 2022 (UTC)


 * Of course! You are more than welcome to ask for my help anytime. Feel free to do so in my user talk page or here on yours. Santacruz  &#8258;  Please ping me!  15:44, 3 January 2022 (UTC)

Bertverse you really should work on the article before re-submitting. Santacruz &#8258;  Please ping me!  19:01, 3 January 2022 (UTC)
 * Yes I should, I am sorry. I resubmitted that as soon as I got rejected, before User:RPSkokie introduced you to me. At the time, I should really take some rest first. Bertverse (talk) 00:18, 4 January 2022 (UTC)

Dear User:A._C._Santacruz, I have made some changes in the draft and I would like to hear your thoughts before resubmitting the draft. I am not resubmitting it yet to know what should be fixed. Maybe User:RPSkokie does not mind to give some comments. 😄 Bertverse (talk) 02:07, 4 January 2022 (UTC)


 * I'd remove the instances subsection. Additionally, sentences like "Any posts can be liked and commented" or "Direct messages allows users to communicate with others privately" describe features common for all social medias so I'd remove these sentences and other similar ones as well as they are redundant. That might be one of the things that makes the article sound promotional — describing features common to all or most social medias as a notable feature of Pixelfed. Hope this helps! On the changes you have made, I think they are good rephrasings that are more in line with what we call "wikivoice", a neutral description removed from enthusiasm or bias. The draft is still in need of a bit more work but you're closer now, good work and keep going! Santacruz  &#8258;  Please ping me!  13:23, 4 January 2022 (UTC)

I have followed your instructions, but I think instances are crucial, so I link the word "instance" to the webpage of Pixelfed's list of instances. What do you think? Bertverse (talk) 13:42, 4 January 2022 (UTC)


 * The fact that the different instances can communicate with each other is, but listing the actual websites is unnecessary. Santacruz  &#8258;  Please ping me!  14:54, 4 January 2022 (UTC)

I include in the article at first but I later move it into the subsection "See Also". I learn priceless lessons in two days. Bertverse (talk) 14:59, 4 January 2022 (UTC)

 * Alright, I will not make any change anymore, User:AssumeGoodWraith. I am so sorry but enough is enough. I have decided to stop contributing anymore since I have always been rejected from the beginning. No assistance from others and I don't feel appreciated. Thank you and good bye.

Bertverse (talk) 09:52, 7 January 2022 (UTC)


 * Before you decide to go, there is a bunch of people at the teahouse willing to help you with this article. The reason I declined it this time is because not much has been added since the last decline. – AssumeGoodWraith  (talk | contribs) 09:57, 7 January 2022 (UTC)


 * Yes, I have to admit that there is not so many changes since your last rejection. I do not add numbers of sources in tbe article since there are not many people/sites review it (yeah there are German reviews but since I am only a beginner there, I am not dare to include them unless I translate them to English). Maybe this topic is too challenging for me because of less sources. I am really mad to myself for not doing well so you guys keep rejecting the draft. Alright I am going to translate the German sources as my final attempt. If it is still rejected, it means that I am not suitable to be a contributor here. Bertverse (talk) 10:11, 7 January 2022 (UTC)
 * It's not on you. Many newcomers don't thoroughly know Wikipedia policy when they join. Also, from what others say, making an article is the hardest thing to get right on Wikipedia.
 * Again, if you're having any issues, or have any questions about editing, you can ask the teahouse (link above) and they'll help. – AssumeGoodWraith  (talk | contribs) 10:19, 7 January 2022 (UTC)


 * Bertverse, please don't feel bad! You can still be a valuable contributor without your draft being accepted. My first draft is still in draft! It wasn't accepted due to notability but meanwhile I've let it wait there for a while and if hopefully more sources talk about it I can reapply. See:Draft:Leaders of a Beautiful Struggle. Note I left a bunch of sources in the talk page of your draft that you could use, maybe that's enough to finish the article. If not, I'm sure your interest in FOSS can be of great help to wikipedia, even if it's outside of this article. Have a good weekend, Santacruz  &#8258;  Please ping me!  10:21, 7 January 2022 (UTC)
 * ...And I haven't even made a draft. Or an article. You can contribute to Wikipedia even without adding any substantial content. (e.g. copyediting, anti vandalism, etc.) – AssumeGoodWraith  (talk | contribs) 10:23, 7 January 2022 (UTC)


 * I have not read the whole policy yet since it is very long... 😅😅 I just know that both of you, whom I have been assuming to be extremely good at writing wiki, face the same things. Oh I should be shameful to be so hopeless. Alright, I am very cheerful now and thank you for your amazing supports.

Bertverse (talk) 10:33, 7 January 2022 (UTC)


 * You can start at the five fundamental pillars of Wikipedia and ignoring all rules. – AssumeGoodWraith  (talk | contribs) 10:36, 7 January 2022 (UTC)


 * I will also add that creating new pages is often pretty hard, even for experienced editors! If I recall you have some connection to Indonesia, I'd recommend asking there if there's anything they need help with that a newbie could do. That way, you can learn the ropes of Wikipedia slowly and in increasing difficulty. Santacruz  &#8258;  Please ping me!  11:14, 7 January 2022 (UTC)


 * Noted. I will do what you guys suggest. Bertverse (talk) 13:22, 7 January 2022 (UTC)

And I will improve my writing ability. Please keep supporting me 😄 Bertverse (talk) 13:24, 7 January 2022 (UTC)

Btw, I should have lost my mind. Why I didn't do this before, prior to submitting the draft, I put them in the teahouse and waited for review instead of doing the opposite? 🙈🙈 Bertverse (talk) 13:31, 7 January 2022 (UTC)
