Michel Mulipola[edit]

Nice work! That's a good bio for a newish editor indeed. I've done a little bit of editing and if anything doesn't make sense, please ask. Here's good. Just a couple of tips: when you include bold-font alt names, you ought to do something with those. In this case, what needed to happen is as follows:

Disambiguation link notification for January 28[edit]

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Lina Marsh, you added links pointing to the disambiguation pages Curation and Migration. Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)

Lina Marsh[edit]

Welcome to Wikipedia! It's great to see your contributions on Pasifika artists, and I hope you'll stick around. It's a bit of a learning curve for sure. I picked up the Lina Marsh article because I saw the article was "orphaned" (not linked on any other articles) and missing categories; these are optional things you can think about adding in the future to make your articles easier to find.

The amendments I've made to the article are largely about complying with Wikipedia's verifiability and sourcing requirements, as well as the need for articles to be worded neutrally and in an encyclopedic tone. Happy to help if you have any questions about any of this at all. :)

One thing I did want to flag is the image you've uploaded to Lina Marsh's page. While images are great if they can be added, Wikimedia Commons has quite strict rules about what can be uploaded. Unless you're the copyright holder or can provide explicit evidence that the copyright holder has released the image under an appropriate free licence, the image is probably going to be deleted. This infographic explains it more clearly than I can! I hope you won't be discouraged by this, as your work is contributing to coverage of underrepresented artists on Wikipedia, and am happy to chat further if you have any questions.
