10:35:01, 22 May 2018 review of submission by Henrik Alfredsson Sweden edit


Hi, I've just added some references to external sources to increase the relevance of this newly created article on the Nordic Africa Days. And I've made some textual adjustments. I hope you will find it of relevance for the wikipedia community. Please let me know if there are any parts of the description that you would like me to develop further. Best / Henrik

Dear reviewers, I would appreciate your help with the draft of the entry on International Conference on Current Trends in Theory and Practice of Computer Science (or SOFSEM for short). This was rejected yesterday due to the lack of other than primary sources. I believe that I have resolved this issue. Could somebody, please, take a look?

In addition to "official" sources listed in the draft, you might also like to take a look, e.g., at the first answer to a question at StackExchange, where a list of notable TCS conferences is given. You can see that the SOFSEM conference is listed among other conferences, many of which already have an entry at Wikipedia (see also the page List of computer science conferences).

Many thanks in advance.

Hello. I have a an entry on "Shirley Willer" that is pending review. I understand it will take up to two months. But I have a question as the entry is pending review. I have a photo of Shirley Willer that I have explicit permission from the photographer to include on the entry. But I don't understand how to include the photo on my draft? Please let me know what to do.

Thanks.

Hi Lkarpenk. Having the photographer's permission to use the photo in Wikipedia is insufficient, so start with Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission. To further understand what they have to give up, you may find it useful to read Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials as well. Once you have the correct permission, adding an image is a two-step process: first upload it, then use it in on a page.
Go to Commons:First steps and carefully step through the tutorial. When you get to "First steps/Uploading files", don't dive in too hastily. First follow the link on that page to learn about the different licensing options. Other useful advance reading includes Wikipedia:File names and Wikipedia:Manual of Style/Images, which will prepare you to answer important questions the upload wizard will ask you. If after that you have any questions or doubts, Commons has its own help desk.
Once you've uploaded an image, the picture tutorial can guide you through how to use it on a page. --Worldbruce (talk) 23:46, 22 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

My question is, will a link from a gaming publishing platform like Steam be substance enough to resubmit?

  Declined nope, see WP:RS Quek157 (talk) 22:38, 22 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
@StarReaper: There is also an extensive subject-specific guide to sourcing at Wikipedia:WikiProject Video games/Sources. --Worldbruce (talk) 23:17, 22 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
StarReaper - I don't think the game is notable. Lee Vilenski (talkcontribs) 14:03, 23 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
