User talk:Roads4117/Archive 4 (October 2022)

An offer
Seeing where this discussion has gone... I can mentor you, if you're interested. Getting started here can be harsh. I would request that at the beginning, you would work with me on non-road-related topics first, to practice understanding sourcing requirements, how to source, and why verifiability is important. We'd also look at how to avoid copyright issues through good writing practices. I would need a commitment from you, though, to earnestly listen to my comments. Just something for you to consider.

 * @Ovinus Thanks for the offer, I am interested. Roads4117 (talk) 06:17, 2 October 2022 (UTC)
 * Alright! I will create a subpage of my user page where we can discuss, and ping you. Ovinus (talk) 18:07, 2 October 2022 (UTC)

Contributor copyright investigation closed

 * @Sennecaster Thank you for letting me know. Also, what pages were they opened on, just out of interest. Thanks, Roads4117 (talk) 17:28, 30 October 2022 (UTC)
 * Every mainspace page that you contributed more than 100 bytes to of text (excluding references/reverts) was checked. You can see the full page list and the results here. Sennecaster  ( Chat ) 17:56, 30 October 2022 (UTC)
 * @Sennecaster It says that this page does not exist. Roads4117 (talk) 18:32, 30 October 2022 (UTC)
 * That's odd; the link is working for me. Anyhow, Contributor copyright investigations/Roads4117 is currently blanked, but if you go in the history, you can use any of the revisions to see the investigation. Sennecaster  ( Chat ) 18:37, 30 October 2022 (UTC)
 * @Sennecaster Thanks Roads4117 (talk) 18:42, 30 October 2022 (UTC)

Close paraphrasing
Please take care not to use Close paraphrasing as you did at A1159 road. Although you provided a source, the words, sequence and structure were almost identical to the source. It's best to write things in your own words and avoid copying and modifying your soruce test. -- Whpq (talk) 13:21, 27 October 2022 (UTC)


 * @Whpq I'm not sure it was me, but if it was, then I will try not to do it again. Roads4117 (talk) 15:50, 27 October 2022 (UTC)
 * Looks like this was from June, before the unceremonious ANI visit, so it's alright. Your contribs since we've last talked all look clean. Ovinus (talk) 17:14, 2 November 2022 (UTC)
 * @Ovinus Thanks Roads4117 (talk) 17:17, 2 November 2022 (UTC)
