Your draft article, Draft:Burnett and Slattery
Hello, Jooojay. It has been over six months since you last edited the Articles for Creation submission or Draft page you started, "Burnett and Slattery".
In accordance with our policy that Wikipedia is not for the indefinite hosting of material deemed unsuitable for the encyclopedia mainspace, the draft has been nominated for deletion. If you plan on working on it further, or editing it to address the issues raised if it was declined, simply and remove the {{db-afc}} or {{db-g13}} code.
If your submission has already been deleted by the time you get there, and you wish to retrieve it, you can request its undeletion by following the instructions at this link. An administrator will, in most cases, restore the submission so you can continue to work on it.
Thanks for your submission to Wikipedia, and happy editing. Legacypac (talk) 21:38, 25 August 2017 (UTC)
Hi, the changes I made to the citations on Woodside Store are to conform to American MDY date standards, as well as adding correct author information, non-mobile URL, and https where available. I don't see how any of this would need a remark on the talk page of the article. The visual edit also creates refnames that are a bit hard to be human recognizable between each other when editing so I sought to change that as well. Just wanted to clarify, thanks. Jeanjung212 (talk) 23:47, 28 August 2017 (UTC)
- I am sorry for the confusion @Jeanjung212:, are you newer to editing WP? Why you would change the dates to a American MDY format when (yyyy-mm-dd) is acceptable (and part of the built in VE/visual editor) and then on top of that you added in new days for the dates of all the citations? When you make any changes to a Wikipedia page you add a note in the change screen as to what you are correcting, this is generally how we know if someone is fixing/making better, or with good intentions - it's one way we communicate here. Jooojay (talk) 04:38, 29 August 2017 (UTC)
- @Jooojay: I changed the dates for consistency because I was already reviewing all the citations. Month Day, Year is also an acceptable format, I'll leave your dates as there are though. The only date that I "added in new days" was for the citation that had no date at all, the "If walls could talk" article from the SMDJ, so I'm not sure what you mean by that comment? I've applied a new edit to the article and citations I think you can be satisfied with because I didn't touch the dates besides the one that was missing. Thanks!
