Welcome!

[edit]

Hello and welcome to Wikipedia. Thank you for your contributions. We appreciate encyclopedic contributions, but some of your recent contributions, such as your edit to the page The Process (Skinny Puppy album), have removed content without a good reason to do so. Content on Wikipedia should not be removed just because you disagree with it or because you think it's wrong, unless the claim is not verifiable. Instead, you should consider expanding the article with notable and verifiable information of your own, citing reliable sources when you do so. If you'd like to experiment with the wiki's syntax, please do so in the sandbox rather than in articles. The following links will help you begin editing on Wikipedia:

Please bear these points in mind while editing Wikipedia:

The Wikipedia tutorial is a good place to start learning about Wikipedia. If you have any questions, see the help pages, add a question to the village pump or ask me on my talk page. By the way, you can sign your name on Talk and discussion pages using four tildes, like this: ~~~~ (the software will replace them with your signature and the date). Again, welcome!

Copyediting

[edit]

Hamish Gary, we can always use another copyeditor, so I appreciate your efforts. But please don't label your changes as "mandatory", especially when what you are actually doing is mainly stylistic, as in your first edit, at Indian summiters of Mount Everest, or this edit to Joe Orton, where your changes were to U.S. English from British English. Far from being mandatory, the Joe Orton edit was in fact incorrect: under English Wikipedia policy, articles should be in the variety of English associated with the subject (in this case, a British person) or if there is no such association, left in the variety used by the first editor. The Orton article is tagged "EngvarB" at the top as guidance. Many people are unaware of how greatly other varieties of English can differ from their own, or that other varieties are equally correct, but since this is an international project, part of copyediting here is to respect the issue. Also, be sure to look at the whole article when you copyedit: your edit to Sam Shockley, again stylistic changes labeled "mandatory grammar changes", affected very little of a sprawling article with many problems; did you not consider there was more needed doing to justify the article having a "copyedit" tag? In fact, your edit to Sarah Knauss introduced a grammar error, a singular verb with "both". If you are not sure why many of your changes do not qualify as grammar corrections, or what is a required change, maybe step back for a while and focus on obvious misspellings (checking first that they are not UK or other non-US variants!), obvious misuses of words, and things like that?

Ways to improve Zero dynamics

[edit]

Hello, Hamish Gary,

Thank you for creating Zero dynamics.

I have tagged the page as having some issues to fix, as a part of our page curation process and note that:

Hi Hamish Gary, I attempted to review your recently created article, but I'm afraid that I find it incomprehensible. (For context, I have a PhD in mathematics, though in a field distant from differential equations.) It would be extremely helpful if you would expand the lead section of the article so that it summarizes the article and explains what it is about.

The tags can be removed by you or another editor once the issues they mention are addressed. If you have questions, leave a comment here and prepend it with {{Re|Joel B. Lewis}}. And, don't forget to sign your reply with ~~~~. For broader editing help, please visit the Teahouse.

Delivered via the Page Curation tool, on behalf of the reviewer.

A tag has been placed on Lentz's algorithm requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section R2 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is a redirect from the article namespace to a different namespace except the Category, Template, Wikipedia, Help, or Portal namespaces.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.

Managing a conflict of interest

[edit]

Information icon Hello, Hamish Gary. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about on Wikipedia, you may have a conflict of interest (COI). Editors with a conflict of interest may be unduly influenced by their connection to the topic. See the conflict of interest guideline and FAQ for organizations for more information. We ask that you:

In addition, you are required by the Wikimedia Foundation's terms of use to disclose your employer, client, and affiliation with respect to any contribution which forms all or part of work for which you receive, or expect to receive, compensation. See Wikipedia:Paid-contribution disclosure.

Also, editing for the purpose of advertising, publicising, or promoting anyone or anything is not permitted. Thank you. Storchy (talk) 15:23, 24 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Concern regarding Draft:Klingit

[edit]

Information icon Hello, Hamish Gary. This is a bot-delivered message letting you know that Draft:Klingit, a page you created, has not been edited in at least 5 months. Drafts that have not been edited for six months may be deleted, so if you wish to retain the page, please edit it again or request that it be moved to your userspace.

If the page has already been deleted, you can request it be undeleted so you can continue working on it.

Thank you for your submission to Wikipedia. FireflyBot (talk) 11:01, 23 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

If this was the first article that you created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.

You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

The page Draft:Klingit has been speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This was done under section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page seemed to be unambiguous advertising which only promoted a company, group, product, service, person, or point of view and would need to have been fundamentally rewritten in order to become encyclopedic. Please read the guidelines on spam and Wikipedia:FAQ/Organizations for more information.

Please do not recreate the material without addressing these concerns, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If you think this page should not have been deleted for this reason, or you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator.
