Welcome!

[edit]

Hello, CC-Berenice, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions.

I noticed that one of the first articles you edited appears to be dealing with a topic with which you may have a conflict of interest. In other words, you may find it difficult to write about that topic in a neutral and objective way, because you are, work for, or represent, the subject of that article.

To reduce the chances of your contributions being undone, you might like to draft your revised article before submission, and then ask me or another editor to proofread it. See our help page on userspace drafts for more details. If the page you created has already been deleted from Wikipedia, but you want to save the content from it to use for that draft, don't hesitate to ask anyone from this list and they will copy it to your user page.

One rule we do have in connection with conflicts of interest is that accounts used by more than one person will unfortunately be blocked from editing. Wikipedia generally does not allow editors to have usernames which imply that the account belongs to a company or corporation. If you have a username like this, you should request a change of username or create a new account. (A name that identifies the user as an individual within a given organization may be OK.)

In addition, if you receive, or expect to receive, compensation for any contribution you make, you must disclose your employer, client, and affiliation to comply with our terms of use and our policy on paid editing.

Here are some pages that you might find helpful:

I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Please sign your messages on talk pages using four tildes (~~~~); this will automatically insert your username and the date. If you need help, visit the Teahouse, check out Wikipedia:Questions, ask me on my talk page, or ask your question on this page and then place {{Help me}} before the question. Again, welcome!

Hi Eddie thank you for your answer. I am a freelancer and the account is mine, personal account, and I am the only person who will use it. In the meanwhile I was reading all the infos and understood better. I disclosed employer and client (there is no affiliation, I don't use websites or anything similar) in my personal page and in talk page of the draft on my personal space, as it was said in the page about COI. I didn't publish anything in the Wikipedia space, at the moment I am writing the draft in my personal space. I read I have to write a draft and then ask someone to review it. Am I doing wrong? When I finish to write my draft so can I send to you for a review before submission? Thank you so much! CC-Berenice (talk) 15:32, 23 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
If you want someone to review your draft when you submit, you can just hit the blue "submit for review" button on the top of the page. That is more or less how you should be going about things. I'm really pressed for time at the moment so don't think that I will be able to have a look myself, unfortunately. Eddie891 Talk Work 12:35, 24 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I finished to write my draft in my personal space. In my previous answer I explained better my case.

Help request

[edit]

Could you help me to see if it is everything ok with the article? User:CC-Berenice/sandbox/Vittorio Emanuele Falsitta And if is it everything ok with my declaration of COI? I link here where I wrote the disclose: Talk page of my draft: User talk:CC-Berenice/sandbox/Vittorio Emanuele Falsitta, pesonal page: User:CC-Berenice, and also in the notes when I save my draft. CC-Berenice (talk) 16:06, 23 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The disclosure on your user page appears to be sufficient.
You are fortunate in your choice of subjects. Falsitta, by virtue of having been elected to the state legistlature, is deemed notable according to WP:NPOL. A biography about him, however, must still meet the rules for WP:BLP among which is a requirement that essentially every statement is attributed to a source via inline citations. You still have some work to do to ensure this is true in your draft. It will make the job of reviewers easier if you can link to on-line sources as much as possible; some of your current citations lack sufficient bibliographical data for just any reader to try to find them. And it is beyond our power as humble Wikipedia editors to list a person's works and by pointing to them suggest the list contributes to their notability. You need to look for secondary sources to support the importance or impact of these works and of their author. — jmcgnh(talk) (contribs) 03:11, 24 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Hi! Thank you so much for your feedback. As someone else told me, Italian Wikipedia and the English one are quite different. So as you suggested, I would search for more on-line sources and check the rules you told me. Thank you again for the help! CC-Berenice (talk) 09:02, 24 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Vittorio Emanuele Falsitta

[edit]

I took a quick look at the (not yet) draft article that you have created (and its Italian counterpart). English Language Wikipedia's rules may be somewhat more limited than in other languages, but I don't see any *large* flaws in the articles. Having served a term in the Chamber of Deputies (a National Level Legislature), he easily meets the notability requirements. A *few* tweeks I'd suggest.

  1. ) The membership in the Sovereign Military Order of Malta needs a reference and I don't think belongs in the Lede. I'd suggest finding a reference and moving it to a personal section or into the other activities.
  2. ) There is no problems including the actual names of the bills like on the Italian version.
  3. ) The list of publications *may* be too long, not sure.

Thank you for the creation, please submit as a draft. Naraht (talk) Naraht (talk) 17:11, 23 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Non-attributed translations

[edit]

Information icon Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you translated text from it:Vittorio Emanuele Falsitta to Vittorio Emanuele Falsitta. While you are welcome to translate Wikipedia content, here or elsewhere, Wikipedia's licensing requires that you provide attribution to the contributor(s) of the original article. When translating from a foreign-language Wikipedia article, this is supplied at a minimum in an edit summary on the page where you add translated content, identifying it as a translation and linking it to the source page. Sample wording for this is given here. If you forgot, or were not aware of this requirement, attribution must be given retroactively, for example:

NOTE: Content in the edit of 01:25, January 25, 2023 was translated from the existing French Wikipedia article at [[:fr:Exact name of French article]]; see its history for attribution.

Retroactive attribution may be added using a dummy edit; see Repairing insufficient attribution. It is good practice, especially if translation is extensive, to also place a properly formatted {{translated page}} template on the talk page of the destination article. If you have added translated content previously which was not attributed at the time it was added, you must add attribution retrospectively, even if it was a long time ago. You can read more about author attribution and the reasons for it at Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia. Thank you. C F A 18:36, 2 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I wasn't aware of the requirement, it was my first time here in the English Wikipedia and was learning all new things in a foreign language. From this message, I understand I have to add that note, but I don't really understand how it works. Where do I have to copy the text? I read the link they send me but I really don't understand it. I have to do an edit summary? I hope someone could explain me to add the right information. Thank you so much!
CC-Berenice (talk) 08:31, 3 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Hi,
'Edit summary' is the small text field you can fill in before saving an edit; it remains in the page history to tell others what you've done with that edit, and why. For example, when you created the Falsitta article, with your first edit you made a comment starting with "I create the draft of this page...". These summaries are permanent, and cannot be added or changed after the edit is saved, therefore you cannot now go and add the necessary attribution comment to an earlier edit. One way around this is to make a 'dummy edit', in other words a small change that doesn't affect the way the article appears (such as adding an empty space to the article text), and adding your edit summary before saving that edit.
Note that attribution is not just a requirement on the English-language Wikipedia, the same applies across all the language versions. So if you have previously translated other content, you may need to go back and provide similar attributions to those as well.

I understand now, thank you so much! So I just need to add an empty space and put the text in the box of edit. I see, thank you so much!
It was my first time also translating a page, I normally just edit in the Italian Wikipedia, where the tutor guide you step by step when you are new. Thank you, again. I would do It now! CC-Berenice (talk) 08:59, 3 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
