Thanks for your contributions to Solomon Oladunni. Unfortunately, I do not think it is ready for publishing at this time because it needs more sources to establish notability. I have converted your article to a draft which you can improve, undisturbed for a while.

Please see more information at Help:Unreviewed new page. When the article is ready for publication, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page OR move the page back. Ludamane (talk) 13:59, 2 December 2023 (UTC)Reply

Thank you, I actually created it to train some participants "how to create articles on Wikipedia" yesterday but I couldn't build a stub as intended due to limited time. Tesleemah (talk) 04:30, 3 December 2023 (UTC)Reply

Hi. I've had a look at your talk page archives, and I'm concerned about the amount of articles you appear to have created that have been deleted or moved to draft. This makes it worrying that you are training people on how to edit Wikipedia. We have to make sure people understand the basic policies that allow articles to be kept in main space, otherwise you would be setting up people to fail.

All the deleted articles were during my self discovery as a newbie. You'd noticed great improvement over time. Tesleemah (talk) 18:08, 4 December 2023 (UTC)Reply

Hello Teseleemah,

I noticed you work on Nigerian articles, I would really appreciate it if you could help me with checking out my draft article on a Nigerian film director Dare Olaitan, for any grammatical error or lack of reference.

Thank you for your time. Aivrie (talk) 19:12, 12 April 2024 (UTC)Reply

Alright, I have worked and refined the article. There were some weavil and exaggerated words which I removed. I also removed statements without references, refined your tone and Added more references.

You can also cross-check for the last time before final submission.

Well done, you've done a great job! Tesleemah (talk) 06:16, 13 April 2024 (UTC)Reply

Hello, Tesleemah. It has been over six months since you last edited the Articles for Creation submission or draft page you started, "Solomon Oladunni".

In accordance with our policy that Wikipedia is not for the indefinite hosting of material, the draft has been deleted. When 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.

Thank you for your submission to Wikipedia, and happy editing. Hey man im josh (talk) 18:03, 5 June 2024 (UTC)Reply

Hello, Tesleemah, Would you like to write about Isabelle de Charrière (Q123386) for the YO Wikipedia? The asteroid named after her already exists for the YO Wikipedia. It would be appreciated if it is done. Boss-well63 (talk) 20:14, 16 July 2024 (UTC)Reply

Hi!..

I have been busy with quote a lot, I will draft something about it soon. Kindly exercise more patience Tesleemah (talk) 01:42, 29 August 2024 (UTC)Reply

Hi, I see you've contributed a lot to Ilesa, would you be interested in a taskforce on oral tradition? Kowal2701 (talk) 20:22, 31 July 2024 (UTC)Reply

Hello!

What's it all about? I looked through but I can't find list of articles that are of interest

And how can I be of help? Tesleemah (talk) 02:34, 1 August 2024 (UTC)Reply

Its about improving Wikipedia’s coverage of oral tradition. It’s very nascent, we’re discussing the scope at the moment and your opinion would be greatly appreciated, and then it’s the tagging and assessment tables. Maybe watch the page as next steps will likely come up on the talk page? Kowal2701 (talk) 06:38, 1 August 2024 (UTC)Reply

Alright, that's fine. I will be on the lookout. Do let me know if I can assist with anything. Tesleemah (talk) 17:50, 1 August 2024 (UTC)Reply

Btw, to join just add your name under ==Participants==, if you look at ==To do== there's some stuff there if you're looking for something to do lol, but your time is valuable so no worries if not Kowal2701 (talk) 18:08, 1 August 2024 (UTC)Reply

No problem, I will. I have been trying to sign up as a participant but network here is unstable. I will try again later. Tesleemah (talk) 19:11, 1 August 2024 (UTC)Reply

Over at User talk:Adimora chidinma you said, "I'm referring to Nigeria community, even thou English is not our native language however must editors are literate, so we need just more push and support to gain insight to editing on English Wikipedia." I've seen a number of high quality edits from the Nigeria community. But, as we'd expect from any group of new editors, some problems as well. What stands out is a lot of article creations for subjects who fail WP:NOTE. These articles generally appear to be spam. Article creation is hard and I'd strongly suggest new editors work to expand existing articles with quality reliable sources (WP:RS) instead of creating new articles. If editors really insist on working on new articles despite that advice, I'd strongly urge them to very clearly emphasize WP:NOTE and WP:RS so it is incredibly clear to the reviewers that the new draft article satisfies those policies. On the other hand, for more experienced editors with a strong understanding of WP:NOTE and WP:RS, I'd definitely encourage them to work on article creation, especially about topics of interest to Nigerians. In general, the quality of written English exceeds that of other communities where English is a second language. That's great! I'd very, very strongly urge new editors to avoid AI entirely. It's very hard to use ChatGPT in an appropriate manner on Wikipedia (much, much easier outside of Wikipedia!) and very easy to accidentally use ChatGPT in a manner that's actively harmful to the project. Finally, I haven't seen this as a significant problem within your community, but WP:COPYRIGHT and WP:FAIRUSE is notoriously difficult, especially around images. A very simple and easy to remember rule is not to upload any image unless you personally took it with your own camera, and not to copy-and-paste text from anywhere else. And finally, Wikipedia has a lot of policies and guidelines and they can be overwhelming. WP:5P is a good place to start. Let me know if you have any questions! --Yamla (talk) 13:38, 30 August 2024 (UTC)Reply

Thank you very much for the feedback, I will share them with my community so as to reduce the rate of disruptive editing. Tesleemah (talk) 13:42, 30 August 2024 (UTC)Reply

wow!

Thank you for the honour Tesleemah (talk) 12:53, 4 September 2024 (UTC)Reply

Thank you for the review Tesleemah (talk) 10:18, 17 September 2024 (UTC)Reply

Hi Tesleemah. I received your email asking me to help updating your userpage. I'm not sure why you didn't just post on my Talk Page, since it is usually better to keep everything on-wiki unless there is a good reason (e.g. to share copyright sources) to do otherwise. I've looked at your userpage and I think it is fine as it is. In what way do you want to change it? Note that if you see stuff you like on other editor's userpages, you can usually copy/paste out the relevant code using the source editor. Anyway, by all means tell me here what you think I can help with and I'll try to do so. Mike Turnbull (talk) 09:53, 17 September 2024 (UTC)Reply

Oh! I thought since it's personal request, I can send you a mail.

I don't know the code I used, the userpage is looking like it's half the normal page. Also, previously I tried to use some codes to make it more organize. I will like if you can help me make it align and the page in full again. Tesleemah (talk) 10:20, 17 September 2024 (UTC)Reply

I've added a {{clear}} template which pushes your main boxes below the one that describes you and has your picture. Depending on the device you use to view Wikipedia (e.g. a mobile phone), there may now be white space above that main box. If so, you can fill in with some text in that gap. Or you can revert my "clear" edit if you don't like it. I noticed that you have thought about adding the {{Adopt}} template. If I were you, I wouldn't use that one. The adopt-a-user program was replaced with the newcomer features that are described at WP:GTF and you already have the userbox for editors who have signed up to be a mentor, which I assume you have done! Best wishes. Mike Turnbull (talk) 12:20, 17 September 2024 (UTC)Reply

Alright thank you, I removed the adopting template as well. Tesleemah (talk) 13:17, 17 September 2024 (UTC)Reply
