Welcome![edit]

Hello, Jayvee69, and welcome to Wikipedia! I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Unfortunately, one or more of the pages you created, such as Christian Satin, may not conform to some of Wikipedia's guidelines, and may not be retained.

There's a page about creating articles you may want to read called Your first article. If you are stuck, and looking for help, please come to the Teahouse, where experienced Wikipedians can answer any queries you have! Or, you can just type {{help me}} on this page, followed by your question, and someone will show up shortly to answer your questions. Here are a few other good links for newcomers:

I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Please sign your name on talk pages using four tildes (~~~~); this will automatically produce your name and the date. If you have any questions, check out Wikipedia:Questions or ask me on my talk page. Again, welcome! KGirlTrucker81^{huh? what I'm been doing} 12:14, 11 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Proposed deletion of Christian Satin[edit]

The article Christian Satin has been proposed for deletion because it appears to have no reliable references. Under Wikipedia policy, this biography of a living person will be deleted unless it has at least one reference to a reliable source that directly supports material in the article.

If you created the article, please don't be offended. Instead, consider improving the article. For help on inserting references, see Referencing for beginners, or ask at the help desk. Once you have provided at least one reliable source, you may remove the {{prod blp/dated}} tag. Please do not remove the tag unless the article is sourced. If you cannot provide such a source within seven days, the article may be deleted, but you can request that it be undeleted when you are ready to add one.

Hello again[edit]

Also, if you put something, anything, on your user page then your user name will change into a blue link rather than being the red one that it is now. This suggests to others, or at least to me, that you are not the dead end that red links suggest and that perhaps you are even a serious editor who intends to stay around. The "User Page" tab at the top left of this page will change color too. Consider it, Einar aka Carptrash (talk) 16:03, 12 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Still learning[edit]

I am new at this, I have added some things to my user page but I can't say that they are deep or as insightful as yours. I will grow it with time, I hope. Many thanks for the help and encouragements. Jayvee69 (talk) 17:11, 12 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

The issue, or at least my issue is not so much that the user page needs to have something meaningful on it as it needs to appear as a blue link. For example, I have about 4,000 pages on my watch list and I pretty much always check edits made by editors whose name is red linked. Being a blue link gives one a bit more leeway. Sometimes. Another tip, notice how my reply to you is indented? This is done by adding a :, or a :: for the second answer, ::: for the third, etc. Carptrash (talk) 17:35, 12 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Aha! Cool, that's nice. Thanks... I must say that I am amazed by the responsiveness of the community. I started by my exploration of Wikipedia with a simple task -- create the page for a fellow I met while traveling in Belgium -- and it is turning into quite an experience. Happy to learn.

Another thing you might learn is a statement such as "Trans-realism is described by Satin " is frequently met by the query, "described where?" The "where" is typically answered by a reference. Another way to establish wikipedia notability is to have other articles link to "yours." I say "yours" but in reality (another term for "in my opinion") once an article is published on wikipedia it is no longer yours, it belongs to everyone who is moved to edit it. So, he can be added to the alumni lists of schools he attended or to places where he has exhibed or even the "notable people" from the town he was born in. These sorts of link are a kind of wikicement. My just invented term. Carptrash (talk) 17:51, 12 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Funny, in my scientific writing I would never have had an unsupported assertion. \cite all the way. Will do. (Today I have to switch to my day job, this evening)Jayvee69 (talk) 17:54, 12 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

If it seems that I , and other editors, are being harsh with you about sources and copyright stuff it might be useful to understand that after an editor has been here a while that although we are taught to assume good faith on other editors part, there are editors, lots of them who just lie about things. "The source says this", when it does not, "I took the picture" when it can be found on other web sites, all sort of things to justify their edits. So, many of us get hardened and get even mean and nasty as a result and it sometimes shows up in our dealing with new editors. You are doing great and I hope you find other places to put your knowledge to good use. Carptrash (talk) 18:33, 13 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Not all. This has been very interesting -- all of the comments make perfect sense. In fact, I think you guys have been remarkably patient with me. While there is a wealth of information on how to do things properly, instead of reading it carefully, I have plowed head first and created that page. You guys (at least five people) have gently me pushed me towards improving the content. I am grateful. Thanks.

And don't forget to sign all your posting (such as the previous note) with four of these, ~ Carptrash (talk) 20:00, 14 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

File permission problem with File:Chronos 2019.jpg[edit]
