Scientrifica
Welcome!
changeHello, I am Bobherry and welcome to Wikipedia, Scientrifica! Thank you for your changes. I just wanted to say hi and welcome you to Wikipedia! If you have any questions check out Wikipedia:Questions, or send me a message on my talk page. I like to help new people, so don't be afraid to leave a message! I hope you like Wikipedia and decide to stay. Here are some pages that you might find helpful:
- Introduction
- The five pillars of Wikipedia
- How to change a page
- Help pages
- How to write a very good article
Also, when you post on talk pages you should sign your name using four tildes (~~~~); that should automatically produce your username and the date after your post. I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Bobherry Talk My Changes 19:12, 10 September 2023 (UTC)
- Thanks, I just wished Macdonald Ross didn't delete all of it Scientrifica (talk) 19:14, 10 September 2023 (UTC)
- I understand why you are upset. I suggestion starting new articles in your userspace and then working on them there. Once you are done you can move them into the main article space. You would basically do User:Scientrifica/NAMEOFARTICLE and change it then you can work on it there without fear of it being deleted as quickly. Bobherry Talk My Changes 19:56, 10 September 2023 (UTC)

Black holes
changeI'm really enjoying your sandbox article on black holes. It's so easy to read and understand. You really know your stuff. Please, please fix all the articles on quantum physics!![me begs] :) fr33kman 15:18, 11 September 2023 (UTC)
- Thank you so much. I love making science easily accessible to everyone. Hey I've been working alone if you want, we could edit the article together. I want to get this article to very good status. After this we can tackle quantum physics together. So would you like to help[me I'm lonely] Scientrifica (talk) 16:05, 11 September 2023 (UTC)
- But don't forget the name of this wiki: we're simple. That's not just a name, it's a reminder of our readership. Don't get so carried away with what you know that you forget how little is taught about astronomy in the school physics syllabus. Getting VG status is not the objective. Writing which can be understood by a 15-y old certainly is. Macdonald-ross (talk) 08:10, 12 September 2023 (UTC)
- Yes I know, I put everything the way it is so that I can slowly shave away and make it simpler. Your goal is the same as mine. I want to make this so simple and fun to read that anyone can read it. So I've been working non stop to get this ready.
- Don't worry after I think I'm done I'll ask you and the other administrators to review and give me pointers on how to make this better before I release it.
- I came to simple Wikipedia because I was excited about creating something simple that anyone could read and understand instead of going through the jargon of the main Wikipedia. I mean have you read the article on black holes. It was already very hard to translate that to what you see on this page. But I am not done simplifying this yet
- Anyways thanks for the talk I really appreciate it. It kinda gets lonely sometimes editing this so someone to talk to is very nice. Thanks

- I am willing to help you edit this page. I'll do a lot of the copyediting and start to remove some of the redundant sections you have. Good luck! fr33kman 19:36, 12 September 2023 (UTC)
- Yes thank you Scientrifica (talk) 19:39, 12 September 2023 (UTC)

changeHello, I am MathXplore. I noticed that you made a change to an article, Holographic principle, but you did not provide a reliable source. It has been removed and archived in the page history for now, but if you want to include a citation and re-add it, please do so! If you need help with referencing, please see Wikipedia:Citing sources, or if you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. MathXplore (talk) 07:25, 14 September 2023 (UTC)
- I added those as explanations of the concept but I think the short version might be better. Anyways not to worry I'll fix those articles when I'm done with the black hole article.
- Hey could you tell me if this: User:Scientrifica/Black hole looks good and is simplified. Don't look at finding black holes and black hole alternatives because I haven't gotten to those ones. Anyways if you have any tips on how to make the article better let me know. Scientrifica (talk) 11:28, 14 September 2023 (UTC)
- I don't know if the article is "good" or simple enough, but please allow me to point out the things I have noticed.
- First, I thought the introduction might be too long, and could be a pain for simplewiki readers. The current version of introduction has 3 paragraphs. Please think if the 2nd and 3rd paragraph could be written in a different section.
- Please think if these words can become simpler (Maybe there are more words that need to be simpler, but I'll just list up the words I found): region, absorb, dimmer, gradually, attract etc.
- Please avoid shouting at your readers, "Math Alert! Finding the Schwarzschild radius" should just be "Finding the Schwarzschild radius".
- Please think if you can use fewer adjectives. Reducing adjectives can make sentences shorter and keep WP:NPOV. For example, I think "interesting" is used too much in the article.
- Do you think the "black hole" is a proper noun? I'm asking this because sometimes it is capitalized like "Black Hole" in your page. The same thing can be said for "Universe".
- I hope these can help you. Others might notice to other things that I have not noticed, so once you cleared the points above, asking advice to others might be a good idea. MathXplore (talk) 12:06, 14 September 2023 (UTC)
