Your submission at Articles for creation: Climate Steps (May 8)

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed! Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reasons left by Tol were:

This submission is not adequately supported by reliable sources. Reliable sources are required so that information can be verified. If you need help with referencing, please see Referencing for beginners and Citing sources.

This submission's references do not show that the subject qualifies for a Wikipedia article—that is, they do not show significant coverage (not just passing mentions) about the subject in published, reliable, secondary sources that are independent of the subject (see the guidelines on the notability of organizations and companies). Before any resubmission, additional references meeting these criteria should be added (see technical help and learn about mistakes to avoid when addressing this issue). If no additional references exist, the subject is not suitable for Wikipedia.

The comment the reviewer left was:

This draft only relies on primary sources as references. Wikipedia articles should primarily be based on secondary sources. Please add some secondary sources supporting this draft's claims.

Please check the submission for any additional comments left by the reviewer. You are encouraged to edit the submission to address the issues raised and resubmit after they have been resolved.

If you would like to continue working on the submission, go to Draft:Climate Steps and click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window.
If you now believe the draft cannot meet Wikipedia's standards or do not wish to progress it further, you may request deletion. Please go to Draft:Climate Steps, click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window, add "{{Db-g7}}" at the top of the draft text and click the blue "publish changes" button to save this edit.
If you do not make any further changes to your draft in the next 6 months, it will be considered abandoned and may be deleted.
If you need any assistance, or have experienced any untoward behavior associated with this submission, you can ask for help at the Articles for creation help desk, on the reviewer's talk page or use Wikipedia's real-time chat help from experienced editors.

Your draft article, Draft:Climate Steps

Hello, Loupgrru. It has been over six months since you last edited the Articles for Creation submission or Draft page you started, "Climate Steps".

In accordance with our policy that Wikipedia is not for the indefinite hosting of material deemed unsuitable for the encyclopedia mainspace, the draft has been deleted. If you plan on working on it further and you wish to retrieve it, you can request its undeletion. An administrator will, in most cases, restore the submission so you can continue to work on it.

Thanks for your submission to Wikipedia, and happy editing. Liz ^{Read! Talk!} 18:34, 8 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Liz. Since that time, Annette Olson, the head of Climate Steps, has begin working with someone from Wikipedia to ally the two organizations more closely together. At some point, someone from CS will revisit the creation of articles of creation for this page, but I think we can delete this for the time being. Thanks for the heads up. 128.92.98.146 (talk) 18:43, 9 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Copying within Wikipedia requires attribution

Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you copied or moved text from Flower (video game) into Global warming game. While you are welcome to re-use Wikipedia's content, here or elsewhere, Wikipedia's licensing does require that you provide attribution to the original contributor(s). When copying within Wikipedia, this is supplied at minimum in an edit summary at the page into which you've copied content, disclosing the copying and linking to the copied page, e.g., copied content from [[page name]]; see that page's history for attribution. It is good practice, especially if copying is extensive, to also place a properly formatted {{copied}} template on the talk pages of the source and destination. Please provide attribution for this duplication if it has not already been supplied by another editor, and if you have copied material between pages before, even if it was a long time ago, you should provide attribution for that also. You can read more about the procedure and the reasons at Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia. Thank you. Also, when copying content, make sure that you bring along all the relevant citations please. — Diannaa (talk) 00:10, 10 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks, @Diannaa. I’m kind of new, learning as I go, part of a project between Wikipedia, Climate Steps and Earth Hero. I’ll make those changes later today, and I appreciate your guidance. Did you write some or all of the Flower page? Loupgrru (talk) 12:56, 10 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

No, I discovered your edit while patrolling. — Diannaa (talk) 14:08, 10 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

It looked like I brought along the relevant citations as a result of copying. I added the messages you recommended to the edit summary and to the Flower Wikipedia page. Thanks again. Loupgrru (talk) 16:46, 10 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Actually it was me who copied over the citations; see this edit. — Diannaa (talk) 22:20, 10 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks, Diannaa. I could swear I just copied and pasted what I wanted to use from the left side with the WP formatting. Sorry I created extra work for you. Loupgrru (talk) 20:18, 11 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for catching that, Diannaa; I didn’t intend to plagiarize. I’ve rewritten the description for Greenhouse Gas Game; I hope you think it’s better. Loupgrru (talk) 14:22, 16 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
