Wikilinks
[edit]Please don't add links to articles unless they are directly related to the subject of the article. . . Mean as custard (talk) 11:17, 20 January 2019 (UTC)
thanks a lot for sharing your experience and knowledge. I am still new to wiki and learning about it. However, I have noticed that you have been removing or editing my work on different subjects. It would be great if you can let me know the reason for tracking or changing my edits.
- Most of the links you add would be of no use to readers as they do not relate to the subject of the article. . .Mean as custard (talk) 09:13, 21 January 2019 (UTC)
- And if an article is already linked there is no need to add another link to the same article. . . Mean as custard (talk) 09:21, 21 January 2019 (UTC)

Article Ahmed Alshaiba
[edit]Hi. Please consider adding citations to the article Ahmed Alshaiba as this biography of a living person does not include any references or sources. Thanks in advance. Kind regards, TruthToBeSpoken (talk) 17:35, 25 January 2019 (UTC)
Ahmed Alshaiba moved to draftspace
[edit]An article you recently created, Ahmed Alshaiba, 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.

An extended welcome
[edit]Hi Saraa Ahmad. Welcome to Wikipedia. I hope you don't mind if I share some of my thoughts on starting out as a new editor on Wikipedia: If I could get editors in your situation to follow just one piece of advice, it would be this: Learn Wikipedia by working only on non-contentious topics until you have a feel for the normal editing process and the policies that usually come up when editing casually. You'll find editing to be fun, easy, and rewarding. The rare disputes are resolved quickly and easily.
Working on biographical information about living persons is far more difficult. Wikipedia's Biographies of living persons policy requires strict adherence to multiple content policies, and applies to all information about living persons including talk pages.
If you have a relationship with the topics you want to edit, then you will need to review Wikipedia's Conflict of interest policy, which may require you to disclose your relationship and restrict your editing depending upon how you are affiliated with the subject matter. Regardless, editing in a manner that promotes an entity or viewpoint over others can appear to be detrimental to the purpose of Wikipedia and the neutrality required in articles.
Some topic areas within Wikipedia have special editing restrictions that apply to all editors. It's best to avoid these topics until you are extremely familiar with all relevant policies and guidelines.
I hope you find some useful information in all this, and welcome again. --Ronz (talk) 17:08, 4 April 2019 (UTC)
Your draft article, Draft:Ahmed Alshaiba
[edit]![](http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/1/1d/Information_icon4.svg/48px-Information_icon4.svg.png)
Hello, Saraa Ahmad. It has been over six months since you last edited the Articles for Creation submission or Draft page you started, "Ahmed Alshaiba".
In accordance with our policy that Wikipedia is not for the indefinite hosting of material deemed unsuitable for the encyclopedia mainspace, the draft has been nominated for deletion. If you plan on working on it further, or editing it to address the issues raised if it was declined, simply and remove the {{db-afc}}
, {{db-draft}}
, or {{db-g13}}
code.
If your submission has already been deleted by the time you get there, and you wish to retrieve it, you can request its undeletion by following the instructions at this link. An administrator will, in most cases, restore the submission so you can continue to work on it.
Thanks for your submission to Wikipedia, and happy editing. CASSIOPEIA(talk) 09:07, 26 July 2019 (UTC)
