User talk:Hiàn/Archive1

Welcome

Hello! I am assuming you have come over from the English Wikipedia, so you are probably familiar with the way this wiki works. I hope you like it here and decide to stay. Here are a few links to help you adjust:

• An English Wikipedian's guide
• Writing in Simple English
• Simple talk: our help desk, reference desk and village pump- in one page
• How to copy from English Wikipedia
• A very incomplete list of our active editors

There is much to do here. For example, there are a lot of articles that do not exist yet, which you can bring over from the English Wikipedia and simplify. Do have a look around and see what you would like to do. Thank you for joining us, and you know how to contact me if you need help. --George (Talk · Contribs · CentralAuth · Log) 16:04, 25 July 2017 (UTC)

Sigh

After five weeks you reverted an edit, while I was working, without discssion. Sammy D III (talk) 17:23, 30 August 2017 (UTC)

@Sammy D III: I'm sorry, you were working on that edit for five weeks? Please clarify. As for the revert, changing the link to truck wasn't needed, but the link to semi-trailer truck was somewhat unrelated. Cheers. Zhangj1079 (T|C) 17:29, 30 August 2017 (UTC)

The account you are using here is five weeks old. I don't care how long you have been on en. I was specifically working on a project when you looked over my sholder and second-guessed me without discussion. I guess it's not important, though. Have fun with it. Sammy D III (talk) 17:43, 30 August 2017 (UTC)

@Sammy D III: I apologize for reverting without discussion. Happy editing. Zhangj1079 (T|C) 17:46, 30 August 2017 (UTC)

Apology accepted, thank you. I'm going to Talk:Flatbed truck in a while, you can stop by if you care. Sammy D III (talk) 18:11, 30 August 2017 (UTC)

SHINee outdated

I noticed that SHINee's page hasn't been updated since 2009. Would you help me edit the page? I know little about them.-K-popguardian (talk) 16:44, 10 October 2017 (UTC)

@K-popguardian: Hi, and firstly, thanks for your work with creating articles about K-pop. I don't really know too much about K-pop, I was just adding images to the articles you created, though I am willing to help in any way I can. The English Wikipedia article would definitely help, since it seems to be updated often, and other language articles may also help and I'll be searching for sources. I may also contact the WikiProjects associated with the page on the English Wikipedia to see if they could help in any way. Happy editing! Zhangj1079 (Saluton!) 21:15, 10 October 2017 (UTC)

Thanks. Not to offend anyone, but the Wiki in general is rarely edited. Disbanded groups such as 4Minute, 2NE1, and Wondergirls hadnt been updated in years, and some groups like BTS dont even have articles yet.-K-popguardian (talk) 21:22, 10 October 2017 (UTC)

No problem. As an editor, I try to expand, update, and improve the articles in general. As for the project activity, we don't have too many editors to update and create articles. Many editors on the English Wikipedia oppose the existence of this project, and the project isn't well known enough. Zhangj1079 (Saluton!) 21:26, 10 October 2017 (UTC)

YeahI wanted to ask. Is Simple English Wikipedia a simple more understandable version of the English Wikipedia?-K-popguardian (talk) 16:04, 11 October 2017 (UTC)

Yep, it is. The Simple English Wikipedia is a more understandable version, though it doesn't have the same articles as the English Wikipedia. The project is good for people learning English, children, and people who don't like reading complex English. Zhangj1079 (Saluton!) 21:18, 11 October 2017 (UTC)

I see. It's actually a good idea. Wonder why it's not supported :( -K-popguardian (talk) 20:04, 13 October 2017 (UTC)

Help re simplification

Hi, could you help with simplifying Template:Encite? I want/need to include most/all the information but am not sure how to make it simpler. A Den Jentyl Ettien Avel Dysklyver (talk) 22:19, 26 October 2017 (UTC)

@A Den Jentyl Ettien Avel Dysklyver: Yeah, of course, I'll get to that. Again, the template should be put on the talk page rather than the article. Regards, Zhangj1079 (Saluton!) 22:22, 26 October 2017 (UTC)

Ok I had a go and got:

A Den Jentyl Ettien Avel Dysklyver (talk) 22:29, 26 October 2017 (UTC)

@A Den Jentyl Ettien Avel Dysklyver: Well done. The template should be simplified enough. Great job! Sorry I couldn't do it quick enough. Regards, Zhangj1079 (Saluton!) 22:39, 26 October 2017 (UTC)

No worries, but I do have a question, why is enwp based put on the talk page? It seems odd for a copyright notice to be on a separate page. A Den Jentyl Ettien Avel Dysklyver (talk) 22:42, 26 October 2017 (UTC)

Not quite sure, but I see that they're placed on talk pages all the time. I've also seen admins warn users for placing enwp based on the article rather than the talk page. I can guess that this is for readability's sake, and attribution is usually placed on the talk page on enwiki. You can see en:WP:TFOLWP for more details. Zhangj1079 (Saluton!) 22:47, 26 October 2017 (UTC)

┌─────────────┘
Ok I have tweaked this a bit, examined other citation methods and come up with this:
{{subst:enc|url=https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Antony_Passage&oldid=782466880|name=Antony Passage}}

Copyright notice. Text on this page was copied from the English Wikipedia article Antony Passage under the CC-BY-SA-3.0 license. The complete history of the article can be found there.
Hiàn/Archive1

which could be simple enough and links directly to the needed places. from a legal aspect it is pretty basic, but it should suffice. It is also much less obtrusive than the templates being used already. A Den Jentyl Ettien Avel Dysklyver (talk) 23:49, 26 October 2017 (UTC)

Thanks for the good work. I think this could be sufficient. Perhaps the specific version of the article could be included? Zhangj1079 (Saluton!) 00:03, 27 October 2017 (UTC)

Sorry, don't mind the striked comment. Didn't look close enough. Zhangj1079 (Saluton!) 00:04, 27 October 2017 (UTC)

Wikipedia Asian Month

Hi, Zhangj1079. I just added a bit to the main page for this, under what doesn't count in the word/character count. I thought of requiring articles to be properly categorized, but I figured we can fix them if necessary at the time of evaluating. --Auntof6 (talk) 06:21, 12 November 2017 (UTC)

That's perfectly fine. The categories don't really matter at this point, and yes, we can fix them if necessary. Zhangj1079 (Saluton!) _{Lest We Forget} 18:47, 12 November 2017 (UTC)

Congratulations on submitting our first article! I made some minor copyedit and simplifying changes, then accepted it in the judging tool.

Just for future reference, a couple of grammar notes:

• When starting a sentence with a number, you have to spell it out in words instead of using numerals.
• "As well" isn't used to start a sentence. It's only used later in a sentence.

I'm working on my first article. Would you like me to let you know when I've submitted articles, or are you watching the judging tool? --Auntof6 (talk) 05:46, 13 November 2017 (UTC)

Thanks for the tips. I'm watching the judging tool, so there's no need to notify me. Thanks again! Zhangj1079 (Saluton!) 23:12, 13 November 2017 (UTC)

Heather Monahan wiki

Thanks for the suggestion. I have tried to simply the contents. Please review the contents. Heather Monahan, is a notable business women. I believe she worked at Beasley Broadcast Group and well known as a media executive. I have been following her verified Facebook page since 2016. I'm requesting you to remove RFD. Thanks. Bo Sasson (talk)

@Bo Sasson: Hi. Great job with the article so far. I'm still not too sure about the notability; it would help if you would put those points in the article. As for the RFD, I'll let it stand, for now, to let the community decide whether or not it should be kept. You can always make your arguments there. Regards, Zhangj1079 (Saluton!) 04:25, 23 November 2017 (UTC)

@Zhangj1079: Thank you very much Mr. Zhangj. Sure thing, i'll put those points in the article. Bo Sasson (talk)

Wikipedia Asian Month contributions

Hi, Zhangj1079. Just so you know, I won't be creating any articles for Asian Month after all. I had some real life stuff come up, and I haven't had time to get articles into shape. I will still do the judging, though. I see that we had one other entrant besides you: you can do judging for him/her if you want, or I will do it. In any case, thanks for participating, and I look forward to doing it again next year. --Auntof6 (talk) 22:39, 30 November 2017 (UTC)

@Auntof6: That's fine. You can always try again in future years! Zhangj1079 ^talk 22:41, 30 November 2017 (UTC)

I just accepted your four articles -- congratulations! If you based them on enwiki articles, please be sure to put attribution on the talk pages. Thanks. --Auntof6 (talk) 09:07, 3 December 2017 (UTC)

@Auntof6: Thanks! Added attribution to Daqing. Zhangj1079 ^talk 18:24, 3 December 2017 (UTC)

Sheen Dass (actress)

Hello, sir why are you added as DQ of Sheen Dass She is an Indian television actress. She worked on Zee TV popular show Piyaa Albela if you want more information about this actress please you can quick check on google and re created that article thanks. Ladchad (wiki) (talk) 03:31, 26 December 2017 (UTC)

Hello Ladchad. As much as the actress worked on the television show, the notability wasn't established with the article. I won't recreate the article, I'm working on another article. You could, however, recreate the article in User:Ladchad (wiki)/Sheen Dass, a userspace draft. Thank you, and merry Christmas. Zhangj1079 ^talk 03:38, 26 December 2017 (UTC)
