Hello. Just been assigned to you after I made several minor edits. At some points I want to create a page dedicated to my paternal uncle Gordon John Edwards (musician) who passed away in 2003. Looks like a big job and was wondering if there is a template people use to start with to edit with information on Gordon, or does one literally start from a blank page? Thank you. --MelanieAntoinetteEdwards (talk) 15:03, 1 January 2024 (UTC)
Hi, I’m not really a consummate wikipedia expert but I noticed there isn’t a page on financial protective indexes. It’s a more arcane investment management term and I was wondering if I could make a new page at least describing what they are. I’m not really sure all the requirements or different things I have to add. Any advice would be appreciated. --Finanorak (talk) 02:29, 7 January 2024 (UTC)

Hello. You seem to have been doing a fair bit of copy editing at Moral economy. You've removed the main "Repetition" template, but three inline templates still exist and the article still shows at Category:Wikipedia articles needing copy edit from March 2022. If you're done, then they should go. Dhtwiki (talk) 09:42, 12 January 2024 (UTC)

Hi @Lfstevens, I've seen that you've made past edits to the Self-driving car page and would like to suggest a change to the definitions section of the page. Note - I'm employee of Mobileye and have declared my COI.
As mentioned in the "Criticism of SAE" section, the SAE levels are too focused on technologies and are not easily understood for the end consumer. We are now seeing the terminology of hands-on/eyes-off being used across the industry by automakers and news websites, replacing these SAE levels.
Here are some examples: Site Maintenance https://www.ford.com/technology/bluecruise/ Level 2 of autonomous driving Mercedes first to sell vehicles in California with hands-free, eyes-off automated driving Hands-off with the first true hands-free car in the US, and it's not Tesla | Electrek
The source of the this new taxonomy is Mobileye CEO Amnon Shashua: Mobileye CEO seeks alternative to SAE autonomy levels | Automotive News Original article: Defining a New Taxonomy for Consumer Autonomous Vehicles | Mobileye Opinion
If this is acceptable, I'd be happy to propose updated content for the new taxonomy. If not, I would love to hear your thoughts. Gideon at Mobileye (talk) 14:02, 29 January 2024 (UTC)
- Shrank the article by ~25%, getting rid of lots of obsolete stuff and general cruft
- Updated/expanded a few things.
- I have a draft of some text, but I haven't figured out where it goes. Hmmm.
- Also, I don't understand this paragraph in the original proposal:
The result of our requirement for no reproducible errors is that the system ODD should be much larger than the customer ODD. In other words, it is possible to limit the ODD to the customer to not allow lane changes in a regular mode of operations, but still, the system needs to be able to change lanes in an emergency maneuver.
Is it saying that the customer would not be able to change lanes manually, or that the system would not change lanes except in an emergency? @Gideon at Mobileye:

Hi, Lfstevens!
First, thank you so much for taking the time out of your existence to make the internet a better place. I have long admired and wondered about the volunteer collective behind the many Wikipedia articles I have accessed. I'm thrilled to be joining this community and hope I can contribute something in my time working with you all.
Second, my actual inquiry. What kind of pages would you recommend editing and how many would you recommend a novice like myself start out with? I came to this site to create an article on a local author doing important work in my surrounding community, but the site recommends I do some edits first. Any advice on where to start would be greatly appreciated!
Thank you for being a mentor. I really appreciate it! --Artastic221 (talk) 15:28, 14 February 2024 (UTC)

Latvia is a small country and it is heavily underrepresented in Wikipedia, especially when it comes to niche sports such as eSports. Is it ok for me to start new pages that I believe are noteworthy and should be listed on Wikipedia? Or should I do it slowly, limiting the number of pages/contributions per day? --Latviawikiman (talk) 10:58, 21 February 2024 (UTC)

Hello Mentor! I've been called out on my first edit for lack of citations, contradictory content, and one irrelevant comment. All noted and understood. However, I am attempting to edit a page for which there is little accurate information but for which I have firsthand knowledge. I have published no journal articles or authored any books as of yet, so I have no source to cite. This is a difficult endeavor as citations already listed for this page have inaccuracies themselves. Any advice? Thanks. --Lostangus (talk) 21:07, 6 March 2024 (UTC)

The article Essive-formal case has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:
One reference citing one theorist makes this original research. Formal case has also been proposed for deletion.
While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.
You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the ((proposed deletion/dated))
notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.
Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing ((proposed deletion/dated))
will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. Bearian (talk) 17:11, 27 March 2024 (UTC)

Hello just want do know why do you edit wiki articles --Food fills me up (talk) 00:51, 12 April 2024 (UTC)
Hi @Lfstevens, I saw your addition to the wave power page and I had a couple of comments/questions, as separately I've created a page for the company at CorPower Ocean.
Do you have a source for the claim of "300% increase (600 kW) in power generation"? Also, does this source refer to the device as an "Out of phase buoy", as this is not a term I've heard – my understanding is the CorPower technology uses a negative spring to amplify the motion.

Hi @Lfstevens, I'm Peng, new to Wikipedia but eager to learn. I've become familiar with Wikipedia guidelines, but a DYK (Did You Know) reviewer recently suggested that my article needs some copyediting. I've made as many improvements as I could, but I'm not sure if it's enough. This is my first time facing a copyediting issue, so I turned to the CopyEdit Project page and found you. Could you kindly assist me in performing copyediting work on my article Taiyin Xingjun? I'm also keen to learn more about what copyediting entails on Wikipedia, and I'm eager to learn from you.
