Welcome

When adding information, please try to WP:CITE a source for each statement whenever possible!

Welcome to Wikipedia, Communism is cringe! Thank you for your contributions. This is an encyclopedia, so remember that it's a necessity to include references listing reliable websites, newspapers, articles, books and other sources you have used to write or expand articles. Please understand that these sources should verify the information in a fair and accurate manner. However, you must not copy and paste text you find anywhere, except for short quotations, marked as such with quote marks and carefully cited to the source the quote was taken from. New articles and statements added to existing articles may be deleted by others if unreferenced or referenced poorly or if they are copyright violations. See referencing for beginners for more details.

I am R Prazeres and I have been editing Wikipedia for some time, so if you have any questions, feel free to leave me a message on my talk page. You can also check out Wikipedia:Questions or type {{help me}} at the bottom of this page.

Battle of Ordashu

Thanks for contributing to the article Battle of Ordashu. However, one of Wikipedia's core policies is that contributions must be verifiable through reliable sources, preferably using inline citations. Please help by adding more sources to the article you edited, and/or by clarifying how the sources already given support the claims (see here for how to do inline referencing). If you need further help, you can look at Help:Menu/Editing Wikipedia, or ask at the Teahouse, or just ask me. Thank you. Dormskirk (talk) 10:28, 5 February 2025 (UTC)

Battle of Ikotobo moved to draftspace

An article you recently created, Battle of Ikotobo, is not suitable as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. (?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of "Draft:" before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page. Dan arndt (talk) 02:24, 16 April 2025 (UTC)

Oh, my bad. I meant to put it as a draft. TJ Kreen (talk) 02:42, 16 April 2025 (UTC)

Your submission at Articles for creation: Battle of Kef (1705) (May 19)

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed. Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reason left by KylieTastic was:

This draft's references do not show that the subject qualifies for a Wikipedia article. In summary, the draft needs multiple published sources that are:

• in-depth (not just passing mentions about the subject)
• reliable
• secondary
• independent of the subject
  

Make sure you add references that meet these criteria before resubmitting. Learn about mistakes to avoid when addressing this issue. If no additional references exist, the subject is not suitable for Wikipedia.

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.

KylieTastic (talk) 14:30, 19 May 2025 (UTC)

Only one source mentions the battle (the source I used), so I’m stuck at a crossroads. TJ Kreen (talk) 21:13, 19 May 2025 (UTC)

Hi, unfortunately one source would not be enough to show notability for a battle. So if no other sources exist it just doesn't meet the current guidelines for inclusion. Regards KylieTastic (talk) 22:58, 19 May 2025 (UTC)

Okay, I understand. But couldn’t it be accepted with the “Relies on one source” disclaimer? TJ Kreen (talk) 00:10, 20 May 2025 (UTC)

Sorry no not in this case. Most subjects have to show they meet WP:GNG which usually means 3+ good sources. Things that can just have one source are where another guideline exists where the consensus is a subject is inherently notable and then you need just one source to show they meet that. Examples are politicians at high levels (WP:NPOL), and extant species (see Wikipedia:Notability (species)). For historic battles there is no specific guideline - but there is an advice page from the Military History WikiProject - See Wikipedia:WikiProject Military history/Notability guide. You may like to ask that project for advice, someone may know of more sources - ask at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Military history. Cheers KylieTastic (talk) 09:02, 20 May 2025 (UTC)

Thank you for your help! TJ Kreen (talk) 11:56, 20 May 2025 (UTC)

Wikipedia as a reliable source

Hey, TJKreen! Re your user, which says I’ve grown resentful of teachers saying the phrase: “Wikipedia isn’t a reliable source”. I’ve come here to change this fact, one edit at a time. I will work tirelessly to make this a reality, no matter how long or how grueling the process proves to be.

FWIW, Wikipedia doesn't consider Wikipedia a reliable source.

A Wikipedia article, ideally, is a curated list of reliable sources (the references) about a subject, with an accurate summarization (the article) of what those sources say. Teachers should be telling students that WP is a good place to start, but they're quite correct that a Wikipedia article itself shouldn't be cited. The sources Wikipedia cites are what students should be using, not Wikipedia. Wikipedia articles can be edited by anyone, so even at our very best articles, errors can creep in over time. Valereee (talk) 11:16, 27 May 2025 (UTC)

Hello, and thank you for the message. Would you prefer that I change it or is it fine the way it is? TJ Kreen (talk) 14:43, 3 June 2025 (UTC)

There's nothing wrong with having that opinion, just wanted to let you know. Valereee (talk) 23:13, 3 June 2025 (UTC)

Ah, I understand now. Thank you for your input. (Not sarcastic) TJ Kreen (talk) 00:37, 6 June 2025 (UTC)

Your edits to WWI

Hello there

There has been extensive discussion about including the various names for WWI in the first sentence of the lead. Please see the article Talk pages about this. It's also not a good idea to write in your edit summary that your changed are "minor" when your are changing content and others might object to these changes. A minor edit usually refers to changing obvious spelling mistakes and other minor corrections that no one is likely to object to. Aemilius Adolphin (talk) 01:03, 25 June 2025 (UTC)

Oh, sorry. I apologize if I came across as misleading. TJ Kreen (talk) 01:23, 25 June 2025 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Draft:Battle of Ikotobo

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.

You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on Draft:Battle of Ikotobo requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page appears to be an unambiguous copyright infringement. This page appears to be a direct copy from https://www.noonans.co.uk/auctions/archive/past-catalogues/726/catalogue/477753/. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images taken from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. You may use external websites or other printed material as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. This part is crucial: say it in your own words. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.

If the external website or image belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text or image — which means allowing other people to use it for any reason — then you must verify that externally by one of the processes explained at Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials. The same holds if you are not the owner but have their permission. If you are not the owner and do not have permission, see Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission for how you may obtain it. You might want to look at Wikipedia's copyright policy for more details, or ask a question here.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. REAL_MOUSE_IRL talk 10:20, 23 July 2025 (UTC)

I understand. I was not aware of this rule, and will remove the material immediately. TJ Kreen (talk) 12:51, 23 July 2025 (UTC)

…Nevermind, you deleted it not even three hours later, and didn’t even give me a chance to remove it. TJ Kreen (talk) 12:52, 23 July 2025 (UTC)

Battle of Irmen moved to draftspace

Thanks for your contributions to Battle of Irmen. Unfortunately, I do not think it is ready for publishing at this time because it needs more sources to establish notability and require WP:RS, WP:IS. 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 the draft for review!" button at the top of the page OR move the page back. QEnigma 论 17:31, 2 September 2025 (UTC)

Recent edit to Anglo-Zulu War

On September 11, you added {{sfn|Knight|2013|p=8}}. There is no reference by Knight that is dated 2013. If you could correct this sfn cite, the article would no longer be in Category:Harv and Sfn no-target errors. I've come across a bit of an oddity... "Zulu War 1879 - twilight of a warrior nation" is available through the Internet Archive. This is a 1992 Praeger Illustrated History book and its cover & title page clearly state that it has two authors - Ian Knight and Ian Castle. Then in the 2003/Osprey/Essential Histories "The Zulu War, 1879" Ian Knight is rendered as the only author. Two different books with almost identical titles or just different publishers of the same material... Confusing to me anyway. - Shearonink (talk) 05:11, 12 September 2025 (UTC)

Anglo-Russian invasion of Holland

Maybe you indicated something incorrectly, a page or something, but based on your references, I do not see the numbers you mentioned in the casualties. Military history RUS (talk) 04:28, 20 April 2026 (UTC)

Oh, my bad then. TJ Kreen (talk) 08:31, 20 April 2026 (UTC)

Is it your bad? Is that all you want to say? Okay. Well, where did you get all these precise numbers? Could you please explain, if possible? Military history RUS (talk) 08:42, 20 April 2026 (UTC)

Sure, I typically just look at sources mentioned in articles of individual battles, and add up the casualties based on said sources. TJ Kreen (talk) 08:48, 20 April 2026 (UTC)

But here you admitted you did not count correctly, right? I just do not know where you got the figures for killed, wounded, captured, and missing. I looked at Clodfelter, Milyutin, and so on, and could not find a total for these losses. Where exactly did you get the figures? Since I could not find them, I had to change everything.

Unable to confirm existence of the Battle of Toychubek in sources or elsewhere

Hello TJ Kreen, I saw that you recently published the article Battle of Toychubek, and would like to thank you for contributing to an under-covered content area. However, I was unable to confirm the existence of a battle of Toychubek or siege of Toychubek in any of the provided sources. Several claims cited to specific pages in the sources, such as "Some associate Toychubek with a site near Kaskelen, though this remains uncertain." are not corroborated by said sources. After consulting with other reliable histories such as Morrison's 'Conquest of Central Asia', and searching online in English and Russian, I was still unable to find any evidence of this battle having occurred. I ask that you provide reliable sources demonstrating that this event took place and remove the unsubstantiated claims, as otherwise the article will likely be deleted.

Draft declined

Thank you for contributing to Wikipedia. Your draft submission to Articles for creation has been reviewed but not accepted at this time.

Feedback

The reviewer, KeyolTranslater, left the following feedback:

This draft's references do not show that the event meets Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion for events. The draft requires multiple published secondary sources that:

• provide significant coverage: discuss the event in detail, not just brief mentions or routine announcements;
• show lasting significance: analysis published after the initial breaking news has passed, showing historical impact;
• are reliable: from reputable outlets with editorial oversight;
• are independent: not connected to the event, such as press releases, the event or organizers own website, or sponsored content.

Please add references that meet all four of these criteria. If none exist, the subject is not yet suitable for Wikipedia.

Still a lack of sources, he books also aren’t sourced well either, who is Jacques 2007? And in which book can I find the reference. Please find more sources
