Maram Ben Aziza moved to draftspace
[edit]An article you recently created, Maram Ben Aziza, does not have enough sources and citations as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. (?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of "Draft:
" before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page.

Creating articles about different schools within universities
[edit]Hello. I see that you are creating articles about different schools / faculties within universities. The Wikipedia guideline about articles about schools and colleges says that there shouldn't be an article about the individual school / faculty unless there's significant coverage about them separate to the university. See WP:NFACULTY. Curb Safe Charmer (talk) 13:14, 23 January 2020 (UTC)
- Dear Curb Safe Charmer, I only choose Faculties and schools that have significant coverage and has significant history in national scale in Tunisia (with significant sources), and i am on my way to develop each stub (each one has a notable French Wikipedia page), your help is much appreciated. Thank you very much. --Metalmed (talk) 13:37, 23 January 2020 (UTC)

Coronavirus charts time offset
[edit]Hi Metalmed,
Thanks for creating the chart In you latest edit you changed the dates to the day before which puts the data out of sync with official numbers. Your comment is titled "wikify (actual chart date (screening time offset (1 day)))" does this mean that on Wikipedia all dates have to be shifted by 1 day?
Thanks Jimz514 (talk · contribs)
- Hello @Jimz514:
- My pleasure, and thanks for your contribution too. No it's just for the Chart, the offset is due to the announcement time, on the template we use the actual time of daily tests, therfore it takes almost a full day to gather the daily results (screening), which is the case of most countries now. However, it means each time the government announces new cases there is an ongoing screening on the other hand that is going to be announced tomorrow.
- Thanks, Enjoy your editing :) --Metalmed (talk) 22:36, 1 April 2020 (UTC)
- Got it, thanks :) Jimz514 (talk) 10:29, 2 April 2020 (UTC)
