Welcome edit

Hi. And welcome to the project. A couple of quick notes:

  • THANK. While I appreciate all notes of thanks, it isn't necessary to thank me for every small edit, syntax fix or copyedit made. I've made many 10s of thousands of edits (to many thousands of articles) over the years. I'm not in it for the thanks :)
  • COI. If you have a connection to a subject about which you are editing, you should consider declaring that connection. And reviewing the other related guidelines.
  • SOCK. If you have previously edited under another account, you should consider whether any use of new/alternative accounts is in keeping with relevant guidelines.

Thank you so much!
Thanks were for pointing errors in my edit, I will make less :)
No COI, beginning of edit across many Russian sports figures and clubs for university (MSLU) journalist project.
I tried before without account, but in Russian (from home).

Hello. RE:
  • "No COI". Notwithstanding that almost all your edits relate to the same subject (or subjects associated with that subject), if you say you have no connection to that/those subjects, then that's fine.
  • "Only logged-out editing previously". OK. If you say so.
  • "previous reference was a news article [so it was moved/removed]". The "previous reference" (as you note, a reliable non-primary news source in the form of a national newspaper of record) covers both the text in the lead ("Mr Moore is the public relations officer of Gaelic Games Europe") and later in the body ("['faked'] claim about the beauty blogger was repeated on Twitter by Alan Moore"). When we have a single (non-primary reliable) reference that supports various parts of the text, then it is redundant to add additional (non-primary) refs which state or support the same thing.
If you can explain why you believe multiple references are required when one suffices (or how or why a primary reference should be 'prioritised' over a reliable non-primary reference), then please explain your rationale in the related article Talk page.

My dear Mr Gulio, thank you for feedback. I present my work on cleaning up of FNL, FNL-2 and sports journalists of Russia in 15 days. I have questions regarding to 2 subjects, living persons. 1. On some persons they have extensive information and references in Russian. The people are famous and work at the global level. Is reference material ok in Russian, to put links from Russian news or official sites. Or is this propaganda as I see some people making these remarks. 2. There are very well known Russian sports journalists and some sports figures with no page or only limited information and maybe only in Russian. Is it allowed to make a new page or to complete he information on them? Thank you. SG Socgen14 (talk) 07:02, 11 May 2022 (UTC)Reply
Hi. If there is already an article on the person or people you are talking about, you can add your new information (and reliable/verifiable references) to those articles. If there are no articles (in English) already on the project, then you could create a draft article. Which you (and others) can expand. You could potentially use the "articles for creation" process.

Transfermarkt edit

Since much of its content is user-edited, Transfermarkt is not considered a reliable source. Please do not cite the website in articles. Thank you. Sir Sputnik (talk) 16:48, 28 March 2022 (UTC)Reply

Hi and thank you. I told the prof and we are looking now at alternatives. Many are Russian language. Socgen14 (talk) 06:59, 30 March 2022 (UTC)Reply
