World Water Congress Draft Page

Hi Mazum,

Thank you for your response on the World Water Congress page. You mentioned it was restored by Hut 8.5 as draft but where it actually is? Can you send me the link as where to find it (or path direction, e.g. user > ... > ...) and how to resubmit it again?

Thank you for your help. I'm not a Wikipedia animal and I get confused with so many instructions, tabs, etc etc etc.

Cheers,

Antoine Hamilton

Dear Masum Reza. I thought about the citation needed marks you added at the ends of the three paragraphs of the lead section of the article Antoine Hamilton. I came to think that the citations needed would probably be very general ones such as to an entire book or encyclopedia article about Antoine Hamilton. I found a possible solution by adding Harvard-type citations. Please have a look and tell me what you think about it. With thanks. Best regards, Johannes.

Regarding my article titled Rajni Kanabar

Hello Masumrezarock100, This is Nayan from India. I created an article yesterday regarding a person named Dr. Rajni Kanabar. Today, I received a peacock template saying This article contains wording that promotes the subject in a subjective manner without imparting real information. Please remove or replace such wording and instead of making proclamations about a subject's importance, use facts and attribution to demonstrate that importance. Now, I have edited the sentences of what I think were of concern, and have published those changes. I wanted to know if anyone can verify it and remove the template if there is no violation. Secondly, I have received notifications related to the images used. I need assistance in how to proceed in that case. Request you to help me with it.

Yes, I am connected to the subject as I work in an agency representing them. They had supplied the images to me for editorial purpose. If it could help, I can get permission from the representative of the company the subject belonged to, that has supplied these images to me. If that is possible, then is there a specific template of the letter I need to get this permission on. Nayan Eightpetals (talk) 07:33, 19 July 2019 (UTC) Nayan Eightpetals

Encouraging users to import an indef-blocked user's script from Meta

Can you please not encourage users to import FR30799386's "undo" script hosted on Meta without actually explaining its potential damage? Not everyone here understands what the snippet you so diligently left in their talk pages to easily "copy and replace" the old line with does and your obscured explanation isn't helping. I'm OK with FR's old and Danny's forked version of the script but not with FR's script hosted on Meta. The old version of the script available here isn't damaging and doesn't need to be immediately updated either. No offense to FR, but I obviously don't support a user who's been indefinitely blocked from enwiki to have control over its unaware users via their script placed outside the project.

None of your "answers" answer my concerns. [I]f you were to take a look at the code, you'd see that this script has a if condition. This means that this script will load only in Special:MobileDiff subpages[...] Seriously? The script can be changed by FR including that little if condition, which would have live impact on users here; you're seriously underestimating the potential damage I talked about earlier. You're just repeating yourself and holding on to your misinformed opinions very strongly. I don't think I can really make you think otherwise in any way, so I'm leaving you and your talk page alone and not continuing this discussion with you anymore.

Masumrezarock100, thank you very much for writing to me. I shall ask someone on the IRC to guide me with the lead section. About the photographs, even after reading the formalities I am a bit confused. I want to ask: If I am the photographer and I want to upload my image what do I have to ensure before doing so? Also, there is a new image that I uploaded yesterday which I haven't included in the draft yet. This image was captured by me. However, in the user comments section, it say (c) Ken Rockwell which is a very famous international photographer who sells as well as reviews cameras, in this situation a Nikon D7000 which I had used for the photoshoot. What must I do? Kindly guide me. Regarding the second image, the photo was taken by a freelance photographer. Right after the Award Ceremony we had bought the photo(soft and hard copies) and the rights to it. So I am confused what I have to do in this case with the second photo. Regarding the citations, I shall work on these. Thank you very much for your time. Appreciate it, Refluxdonut (talk

Regarding the other file that I uploaded yesterday but didn't use yet, in the user comments it shows copyright of some international photographer who sells the lens and reviews the brand of the camera which I used, but in fact the image was captured by me. That's what caused the confusion last time it was deleted. Kindly advice, Thank you, Refluxdonut (talk) 17:11, 19 July 2019 (UTC)
