help me Thanks Wywin. It's my first day and I am rather confused. I'd like to contribute content in editing, especially editing for academic and scholarly publication. I've already drafted a few pieces in my sandbox (language professional, author editing, developmental editing). The problem is that the most likely place to start, Editing, is edit-protected. Should I ask for my pages to be created, or wait until I can contribute to Editing?--Valmataré (talk) 16:09, 13 February 2013 (UTC)


 * Hey! I haven't really dug too deep, but you should be able to edit it in 4 days and 10 edits :) Aside from that, if I may, I'd like to ask about your username. I'm not sure if it's intended, but in Spanish it comes out to mean I will kill Val. If that's not your intent, my apologies. If it is, might I suggest requesting a change in username? gwickwire  talk edits 20:24, 13 February 2013 (UTC)

Disambiguation link notification for February 26
Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Academic writing, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Acknowledgments (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ* Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Your AfC drafts
You seem to have a pretty good sense for what makes a good Wikipedia article. As a registered user, you don't even need to get approval to create articles in mainspace. And as I'm sure you noticed when looking at other drafts, there's a lot of authors whose work is more worthy of AfC quarantine than yours. If you have any other drafts that need to be moved, let me know. Or just move them yourself - if you think they're ready, they probably are. Kilopi (talk) 13:58, 16 March 2013 (UTC)
 * Thanks for putting my pages in mainspace! (I'm still learning how to navigate inside Wikipedia...) Valmataro (talk) 17:18, 16 March 2013 (UTC)

Editor-at-large
Dear Valmataro, I have noticed that you improved the article Editor-at-large significantly. Do you mind to have a look at Corresponding Editor? There is no such an article so far. Kind regards, Hemeier (talk) 15:58, 1 April 2013 (UTC)

ArbCom elections are now open!
Hi, You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.

Author editing
Hello, I'd like to explain myself regarding this edit. MOS:HEAD states that "Headings should not refer redundantly to the subject of the article", which I took to mean that if the heading "Author's writing skill" was in an article about author's editing, it would be assumed that the section would be about how writing skill relates to the subject and vice versa. That seems to be the case in other articles. If this interpretation seems wrong, or if the original heading seems more clear, I will leave it alone; if not, I'd like to ask permission to change it back. Have a nice day!

December 2016
Your recent edit to Clarkstown High School South appears to have added the name of a non-notable entity to a list that normally includes only notable entries. In general, a person or organization added to a list should have a pre-existing article before being added to most lists. If you wish to create such an article, please first confirm that the subject qualifies for a separate, stand-alone article according to Wikipedia's notability guideline. You have added this person three times now. I pointed out in two edit summaries and in my response to your question on my talk page that the alumnus needs to have a wikiarticle showing his notability, and you restored it again. Your source showing that he is an actor is insufficient to show his notability per WP:NACTOR. Please read WP:WRITETHEARTICLEFIRST. You should also read WP:EDITWARRING.
