Hello, Shy63, and welcome to Wikipedia! My name is Ian and I work with Wiki Education; I help support students who are editing as part of a class assignment.

I hope you enjoy editing here. If you haven't already done so, please check out the student training library, which introduces you to editing and Wikipedia's core principles.

COM 482 Introduction

edit

Hello! This is Angel from COM 482 Interpersonal Media. I'm just doing a short introduction here but I hope that you're having a good start to the new school year! Angelsu52 (talk) 14:21, 7 October 2020 (UTC)Reply

Welcome!

Welcome Shy63 to both Wikipedia and to COM482! I'm a big fan of takikomi gohan so it's exciting to see you work on that article.

The article is somewhat advanced compared to other stubs so you might need to dig a bit deeper to make significant improvements. Look at the talk page of the article (Talk:takikomi gohan) for related food projects that will give you a good sense of excellent articles on similar topics which should point you at a way to improve the article. I'm looking forward to seeing watching the article develop over the next week. —mako 14:13, 19 October 2020 (UTC)Reply

Feedback on your draft

edit

Greetings Shy63! I'm sorry you didn't get feedback on User:Shy63/Takikomi gohan from any of your classmates.

In any case, I think you article is off to a great start. You've added tons of information, a bunch of good references, and the article is 'much better shape than it was before. Hooray!

Most of my advice is just about cleaning things up. In particular:

  • Carefully edit it to try and polish the English.
  • You've added a bunch of new statements/facts/etc about takikomi gohan. Each of these needs a reference! If they are coming from a single source, you can add it for the first claim or sentence and then add a second citation to the same thing.
  • I saw that you added a citation to the History header. That's not really typical in Wikipedia.
  • I would consider making maze gohan into a red link.

Once you've done a final pass to clean up some of this stuff, please go ahead and move your changes over into the live version. I think with another pass, you'll be in really great shape! This is great work. It's making me hungry! ;) —mako 03:13, 2 November 2020 (UTC)Reply

This submission appears to read more like an advertisement than an entry in an encyclopedia. Encyclopedia articles need to be written from a neutral point of view, and should refer to a range of independent, reliable, published sources, not just to materials produced by the creator of the subject being discussed.

Most of the sources are selfpub, such as the GitHub links and cites to its own website, both ofwhich are not considered reliable (see WP:SELFPUB and WP:ABOUTSELF). Writing is also very advertizement.
