Your article Cristina Dinu, Metal Artist edit

  Welcome, and thank you for contributing the page Cristina Dinu, Metal Artist to Wikipedia. While you have added the page to the English version of Wikipedia, the article is not in English. We invite you to translate it into English. It has been listed at Pages needing translation into English, but if it is not translated within two weeks, the article will be listed for deletion. Thank you. Wikishovel (talk) 13:47, 25 April 2024 (UTC) Hello, Mrfrodots62, and welcome to Wikipedia! While efforts to improve Wikipedia are always welcome, unfortunately, your contributions are not written in English that is good enough to be useful. You appear to be more familiar with Romanian; did you know there is a Romanian Wikipedia? You may prefer to contribute there instead. In any case, welcome to the project, and thank you for your efforts! Wikishovel (talk) 13:52, 25 April 2024 (UTC)Reply

Bună ziua Mrfrodots62, și bine ați venit pe Wikipedia! În timp ce eforturile de a îmbunătăți Wikipedia sunt întotdeauna binevenite, din păcate, contribuțiile dumneavoastră nu sunt scrise într-o engleză care să fie suficient de bună pentru a fi utilă. Se pare că sunteți mai familiarizat(ă) cu limba română; știai că există o Wikipedia în limba română? Ați putea prefera să contribuiți acolo în loc. În orice caz, bun venit la proiect, și vă mulțumesc pentru eforturile dvs.! Wikishovel (talk) 13:52, 25 April 2024 (UTC)Reply

When you post an article, it will be assessed as it stands. If you don't want that to happen, you should write it as a draft. That's particularly important if you are not posting in English, although it's probably better if you translate off-wiki.

Your article name was wrong, should just be Christina Dinu. If there was another woman with the same name on en-wiki (there isn't) it should in any case have been [[Cristina Dinu {metal artist)]]. You should write in proper sentences, not lists, just looks like a CV as it stands. You had only one wikilink.


You have an obvious conflict of interest, please don't write about yourself, your friends or relatives and read the guidance below:

  • When you write about a person, you must provide independent verifiable sources to enable us to verify the facts and show that they meet the notability guidelines. Sources that are not acceptable include those linked to the person or an associated organisation, press releases, YouTube, IMDB, social media and other sites that can be self-edited, blogs, websites of unknown or non-reliable provenance, and sites that are just reporting what the person claims or interviewing them. Note that references should be in-line so we can tell what fact each is supporting, and should not be bare urls.
  • Most of your text is completely unsourced, and the sources you gave (as bare urls} mainly appear to be unacceptable, blogs, social media, YouTube etc, and some don't work
  • You must write in a non-promotional tone. Articles must be neutral and encyclopaedic, with verifiable facts, not opinions or reviews.
  • There shouldn't be any url links in the article, only in the "References" or "External links" sections.
  • You must not copy text from elsewhere. Copyrighted text is not allowed in Wikipedia, as outlined in this policy. That applies even to pages created by you or your organisation, unless they state clearly and explicitly that the text is public domain. We require that text posted here can be used, modified and distributed for any purpose, including commercial; text is considered to be copyright unless explicitly stated otherwise. There are ways to donate copyrighted text to Wikipedia, as described here; please note that simply asserting on the talk page that you are the owner of the copyright, or you have permission to use the text, isn't sufficient.
  • I didn't check

Before attempting to write an article again, please make sure that the topic meets the notability criteria linked above, and check that you can find independent third party sources. Also read Your first article. If you are writing about yourself, or someone you know as a friend, colleague, client, employer or relative, you have a conflict of interest, and you must disclose the nature of that COI.

National varieties of English edit

  Hello. In a recent edit, you changed one or more words or styles from one national variety of English to another. Because Wikipedia has readers from all over the world, our policy is to respect national varieties of English in Wikipedia articles.

For a subject exclusively related to the United Kingdom (for example, a famous British person), use British English. For something related to the United States in the same way, use American English. For something related to another English-speaking country, such as Canada, Australia, New Zealand, Ireland, India, or Pakistan, use the variety of English used there. For an international topic, use the form of English that the first author of the article used.

In view of that, please don't change articles from one version of English to another, even if you don't normally use the version in which the article is written. Respect other people's versions of English. They, in turn, should respect yours. Other general guidelines on how Wikipedia articles are written can be found in the Manual of Style. If you have any questions about this, you can ask me on my talk page or visit the help desk. Thank you. Jimfbleak - talk to me? 13:56, 25 April 2024 (UTC)Reply

Also note that the final comma in A, B, and C is US English. Most other varieties use A, B and C, so don't "correct" them Jimfbleak - talk to me? 14:02, 25 April 2024 (UTC)Reply
