WikiProject

Hello ApproximateLand:

Thank you for your contributions to veganism – or vegetarianism – related articles. I'd like to invite you to join WikiProject Veganism and Vegetarianism, a WikiProject to improve veganism and vegetarianism articles on Wikipedia and coverage of these topics.

If you would like to participate or join, please visit the project page for more information. Thanks! Psychologist Guy (talk) 19:03, 21 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you, Psychologist Guy. It feels good to be welcomed by someone. I'll give the vegetarian and veganism pages a look later. ApproximateLand (talk) 19:04, 21 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I've only edited Talk:Veganism up to this point. And, d'oh, Rasnaboy, also welcomed me (higher on the page). I thank the both of you. ApproximateLand (talk) 19:06, 21 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Main Article Veganism

Please read the article talk page (thoroughly) before reverting. NonhumanAnimalAutonomy (talk) 10:12, 21 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@ApproximateLand:, nothing has been added to the article. It has only been reorganised (as in cleaned up). sections belonging in the main article Vegetarianism do not belong in veganism. The symbol for veganism is not a pizza. I suggest you read the article talk page, and discuss the issue there. NonhumanAnimalAutonomy (talk) 10:22, 21 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Pushing your pov everywhere

There is no pushing of personal POV. Only clarifying facts relating to the subject of veganism. It appears that you are working against the WikiProject, and I am supporting it. NonhumanAnimalAutonomy (talk) 10:26, 21 April 2021 (UTC) NonhumanAnimalAutonomy (talk) 10:28, 21 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Tips how to identify good sources

Great you want to help find sources for seabird. The sourcing standards for featured articles are quite high. The essay Wikipedia:Identifying_reliable_sources_(science) may help you find the best sources. If in doubt, I'm always willing to help! FemkeMilene (talk) 08:20, 22 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Femkemilene, thank you. I'd already read around about which sources are appropriate for which topics, and I've seen what has been said on talk pages and in the page histories. ApproximateLand (talk) 09:22, 22 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

And I know you are willing to help. You've proven yourself to be one of the kind and patient editors around here, and I won't forget that. ApproximateLand (talk) 09:25, 22 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Another tip: if you cite sources, you can use automated tools to fill in the details. If you use the visual editor, there is a cite button where you can insert a url. The tool then generates a citation, which includes information such as the date, and the publisher. This allows other editors to more quickly verify and check the sources. If you use source editing, there are also possibilities (refTool in preferences, or New wikitext mode in beta functions. FemkeMilene (talk) 19:06, 24 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Okay. ApproximateLand (talk) 23:23, 24 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

FemkeMilene, do you have an any advice on this?[1] ApproximateLand (talk) 23:25, 24 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Springer Nature is a respectable publisher. They publish a lot, so I'm not surprised if there are a few instances where they have copied us. FemkeMilene (talk) 16:58, 25 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

My concern is the plagiarism. It's circular sourcing and means that stuff came from here. ApproximateLand (talk) 07:37, 30 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
