Copy editing
[edit]Hi! I need your assistance with copy editing for two articles: Agreement on Textiles and Clothing and The Story Teller (painting). Please make time to see. Thanks RV (talk) 17:13, 22 September 2023 (UTC)
- @RAJIVVASUDEV Thanks for tagging me in! I'll make time later this evening (in about 5-7 hours) to review these, then let you know when I'm done. Shouldn't take long! Cheers ☺️ Chiselinccc (talk) 22:16, 22 September 2023 (UTC)
- @RAJIVVASUDEV I've done a first pass on both articles, accounting for basic style and readability stuff (there's not a *ton* to do there, as you're quite an advanced writer!).
- As I went along, though, I jotted down some notes on paper (very old-fashioned, I know ☺️) of questions that, if answered, would aid the layperson's understanding, as well as a few notes on overall structure for introducing the ideas in the first article.
- As it's late now, I'll have to sleep, then have some work to do in the morning. I'll start a thread on the Talk Page of each article tomorrow night and ping you there, listing my clarifying questions and suggestions for you to review and think about. That way, our brainstorming will be included in the history of the article for others' benefit too.
- None of these are things that should hold up these articles, just details that may help further improve their clarity and flow! Great and very interesting stuff, I'm pretty new to economic trade history so that was a lot to wrap my brain around in a nice challenging way! 😅 Take care till we speak in the Talk Page, and feel free to keep in touch for other articles as they arise. Chiselinccc (talk) 08:58, 23 September 2023 (UTC)
- Thank you for taking quick action. RV (talk) 10:01, 23 September 2023 (UTC)

Thank you for going above and beyond
[edit]Your message at User talk:Smith, craig warren really embodies the community spirit of working to improve the project. It's the kind of thing that you said ten times better than I could have, and with the energy and drive to dig in and help improve the article.

| For going above and beyond in assisting a new editor with a COI both to understand policy and to help improve the article in question —C.Fred (talk) 15:00, 29 February 2024 (UTC) |
Wikipedia is quick to take people to task for poor behaviour but not always so forthcoming with praise for good behaviour. Please except my heartfelt thanks and compliments, as well as this Barnstar as acknowledgement for your selfless and helpful acts. —C.Fred (talk) 15:00, 29 February 2024 (UTC)
- @C.Fred Thank you so much, I'm especially honored because in my long time of reviewing WP- and Talk-namespace pages, I've seen many times how much you yourself contribute here! You've really made my day.
- Sometimes it can be easy to start despairing upon encountering less than collaborative folks, so your messages here have really reminded me how important it is to maintain balance and good faith, I'll try to do so moving forward! Cheers and happy editing :-D Chiselinccc (talk) 16:06, 29 February 2024 (UTC)

Hey Chiselinccc! Can you help me with a finding a license?
[edit]Hey Chelsea! You warned me around 5 months about uploading a photo without proper copyright claims and were extremely kind about it. I was wondering if you could help me with finding the proper wikitext format license? I wasn't really sure who to go to for help cause Wikipedia is so large LOL. Just reply back if you can help! (My mentor also hasn't replied back yet) Itsirlpidge (talk) 04:15, 21 April 2024 (UTC)
- @Itsirlpidge Hey there thanks for reaching out! If your mentor hasn't already answered you I would love to help if I can- just let me know what you're trying to accomplish and what your blockers/questions are. ☺️ Chiselinccc (talk) 14:55, 22 April 2024 (UTC)
- Thanks for answering!! They haven’t answered me yet either. I’m trying to upload a {{non-free book cover}} to the wiki commons but can’t figure out the type of wiki text format it’s under. I’ve tried a few and it hasn’t gone through properly. Can you help me figure it out possibly? Thank you so much again! 😄 Itsirlpidge (talk) 16:02, 22 April 2024 (UTC)
- @Itsirlpidge my pleasure ☺️ I've looked into this a little bit, and as I thought I recalled, non free book covers are okay to use only, and specifically, in an article about that book, and they need to be uploaded directly to the English Wikipedia instead of Wikimedia Commons (this second part I'm not SUPER strong on understanding, forgive me!)
- This is the template used to identify a fair use instance of a non free book cover, and all the info around that WP:Template:Non-free_book_cover - oh dear, that attempted link didn't work, hopefully this lame old hyperlink will- [1] I'm hoping this link works! It might be worth checking in at the WP:Teahouse to get confirmation from someone who has done this before, as the instructions are a little intense, lol.
- Additionally, if you are currently working on a draft that this relates to, I have seen Teahouse folks advise not to worry about the image until the article is published into mainspace, as the fair use justification for non free content only allows it to be used in article space, not draft space. Hope this helps a bit! Chiselinccc (talk) 17:18, 22 April 2024 (UTC)
- @Itsirlpidge ugh my two attempts to link to the template I'm talking about from mobile failed, I'm going to paste it plaintext and hope you utilize it that way! https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Template%3ANon-free_book_cover?wprov=sfla1 😅 Chiselinccc (talk) 17:21, 22 April 2024 (UTC)
- Thank you! I'm trying to work on an article right now and didn't want to get in trouble again, I'll check to see if it works when I'm free!! Itsirlpidge (talk) 22:34, 22 April 2024 (UTC)
- It worked amazingly!! Thank you I just published my first article and this was really holding me back!! :))))) Itsirlpidge (talk) 00:29, 23 April 2024 (UTC)
