New Bahru

I have deleted this hoax page that you created. I hope your future edits are constructive. The links I gave above should provide you with some useful information in this regard. Please review them before your next edit. I know it takes some effort to learn how to edit an encyclopedia, but all of us were new at some point, so do stick with it. Thank you. -- Rosiestep (talk) 17:47, 24 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Your submission at Articles for creation: Women in Esports (September 29)

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed. Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reason left by Dr vulpes was:

This submission reads more like an essay than an encyclopedia article. Submissions should summarise information in secondary, reliable sources and not contain opinions or original research. Please write about the topic from a neutral point of view in an encyclopedic manner.

The comment the reviewer left was:

You've put in a lot of work into this article and it's a great start! Make sure you write in an encyclopedic tone and have references to support all the claims you've made. For example you mentioned that "Women players who encounter gender stereotypes would experience stereotype threat when participating in competitive Esports." but didn't provide a source for it.

Please check the submission for any additional comments left by the reviewer. You are encouraged to edit the submission to address the issues raised and resubmit after they have been resolved.

If you would like to continue working on the submission, go to Draft:Women in Esports and click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window.
If you do not edit your draft in the next 6 months, it will be considered abandoned and may be deleted.
If you need any assistance, or have experienced any untoward behavior associated with this submission, you can ask for help at the Articles for creation help desk, on the reviewer's talk page or use Wikipedia's real-time chat help from experienced editors.

Women in esports/video games

Hi @Zcue, I saw your edit/self-revert on Women and video games and was curious what your plans are. I'd be willing to help write, especially since I should have access to quite a few of the scholarly sources you're using, but I also just want to make sure that there's enough separation between the topics of woman and video games and women and esports. E.g., I skimmed the first source you have in the draft (Paaßen, Morgenroth, Stratemeyer (2017). "What is a True Gamer? The Male Gamer Stereotype and the Marginalization of Women in Video Game Culture") and didn't see anything in there at all specific to esports. Do you want to add this as a section in the "w + vg" article or publish a new article? If the latter, we just need to make sure the sourcing is up to snuff.

Ok I actually just realized that you weren't the person who added the Stratemeyer source, but you did include the sentence "Women have participated competitively in Esports since the establishment of professional leagues" which, at the time, didn't have a source. So slightly different question, but yes, statements like that will need sources specific to women and esports. Alyo (chat·edits) 14:12, 7 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I was thinking to create a new section for competitive esports. Will be working on the sources further. Appreciate the information on needing sources to back up my statements. Zcue (talk) 19:16, 18 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Zcue So are you ok just adding this material into Women and video games, or do you really want to make a new article specifically about esports? Alyo (chat·edits) 14:59, 21 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
