Hello

[edit]

Welcome to Wikipedia. Thank you for your contributions. At Elsie Driggs, I note that you are apparently citing your own work and even quoting yourself. That looks remarkably like self-promotion, which is not looked upon favorably at Wikipedia. Please be mindful of our policies on conflict of interest. Thank you. --Orlady (talk) 22:26, 3 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Did you know...?

[edit]

Hi, are you familiar with Did you know? In case you're not, DYK is a section on the Main Page which highlights new content. To be eligible for this high-profile and desirable spot, an article must be new or newly five times expanded within the last five days.

I've noticed that you've expanded Max Weber (artist) quite a bit, from 1115 to 4912 characters of prose (as determined by DYK standards), a 4.4 times expansion. If you can further expand it by 663 prose characters in the next few days, by about April 7 or 8, it will be eligible for DYK.

Articles featured on DYK may get thousands of page views, so if you'd like your work to get this wide exposure, please see if you can sufficiently expand the article further. Thanks for your contributions. MANdARAX  XAЯAbИAM 20:44, 5 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the expansion. It still wasn't quite large enough to be eligible, so I added some more information, and now the expansion requirement has been met. I've nominated it: Template:Did you know nominations/Max Weber (artist). Feel free to suggest an alternate hook if you'd like, but remember that "hookier" hooks are generally preferred, and DYK rules require the article to have a supporting inline citation immediately after the hook fact.

This is an article which I had on my list to expand some day, so thanks for letting me cross it off the list. MANdARAX  XAЯAbИAM 08:45, 7 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that you've added some links pointing to disambiguation pages. Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.
