Hello! Please feel free to reach out to me here.

September 2019[edit]

Hello, and thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. This is just a note to let you know that I've moved the draft that you were working on to Draft:Marine heatwaves, from its old location at User:Madmolecularman/sandbox. This has been done because the Draft namespace is the preferred location for Articles for Creation submissions. Please feel free to continue to work on it there. If you have any questions about this, you are welcome to ask me on my talk page. Thank you. -Liance^{talk/contribs} 22:37, 30 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Your submission at Articles for creation: Marine heatwaves (October 2)[edit]

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

This submission provides insufficient context for those unfamiliar with the subject matter. Please see the guide to writing better articles for information on how to better format your submission.

The comment the reviewer left was:

Certainly well researched, but the tone is more akin to a scientific paper than an encyclopedia article. Furthermore, the subject is overly technical to the lay reader. While articles should be sufficiently technical, they must also be understandable without a specialized degree. The technical information should be kept, but readability should be improved, and more items explained.

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 when they have been resolved.

If you would like to continue working on the submission, go to Draft:Marine heatwaves 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:Marine heatwaves, click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window, add "{{db-self}}" 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 6 months, it will be considered abandoned and may be deleted.
If you need any assistance, 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.

Hello, Madmolecularman! Having an article declined at Articles for Creation can be disappointing. If you are wondering why your article submission was declined, please post a question at the Articles for creation help desk. If you have any other questions about your editing experience, we'd love to help you at the Teahouse, a friendly space on Wikipedia where experienced editors lend a hand to help new editors like yourself!

Hello Captain Eek and thank you (October 2nd)[edit]

Thanks for your feedback. This is my first article entry so I appreciate all of your comments. I do come from a more technical background and am working on simplifying my written tone to be more accessible. I will also provide more context in the first paragraph and first sentences of each section. Streamlining my sentences is also a goal of mine for this project as I know they can be a bit verbose not easy to follow. I will check out the Teahouse and ask some questions when I have time. It is the busy time of the school year so I don't have a ton of free, but I will do my best!

Keep up the good work, and when you've rewritten the article, feel free to ask me directly to look at it again. Captain Eek ^{Edits Ho Cap'n!}⚓ 16:30, 2 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Mole Day![edit]

Happy Mole Day

6.022x10²³

Hello! Wishing you a Happy Mole Day on the behalf of WikiProject Science.

What is this?

Mole Day is an unofficial holiday celebrated among chemists, chemistry students and chemistry enthusiasts on October 23, between 6:02 a.m. and 6:02 p.m. This date is derived from the Avogadro number, which is approximately 6.022×10²³, and the day is named after scientist Amedeo Avogadro.

Thanks for your now-official article[edit]

Hi Madmolecularman, I've moved your draft of Draft:Marine heatwaves to mainspace, so it is a real live article now. I agree with CaptainEek that the language is technical, but I would much rather have this article be live now than to wait for it to be perfect. I very much appreciate what you've done here. Let me know if I can help with anything. Cheers, Clayoquot (talk | contribs) 00:49, 25 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]
