User:Deermouse/My first 4 Days[edit]

The reader may see that very much busy gathering and storing and organizing is going on. A little deer mouse may find itself anywhere, such as Commons, Wiktionary, Foundation or getting into trouble (usually not intentionally). Notoriety does not make up for lack of Notability.


Native American cultures gave me a name. It is my nature name. It describes my character well. The universe is my realm. I dwell in the land of the living. The winged-people are my counselors. I am gifted with story-telling, collecting information, and organizing plunder and so many other things.

This block-quote is from the introduction to the Wikipedia:User pages.

User pages are administration pages in the User and User talk namespaces, and are useful for organizing and aiding the work users do on Wikipedia, and facilitating interaction and sharing between users.


Article introduction[edit]

The overview should stand on its own as a concise overview of the article's topic. It should identify the topic, establish context, explain why the topic is notable, and summarize the most important points, including any prominent controversies.

Upon replacing lead with overview above the hyperlink destination is the Review article page. A review article is an article that summarizes the current state of understanding on a topic. In news publishing, overview articles are the terminology.

Rhetoric comes to mind, Deermouse has stored that concept somewhere. Wikipedia:Commons is our champion with a painting:

This painting depicts a lecture in a knight academy, painted for Rosenborg Castle as part of a series of seven paintings depicting the seven independent arts. This painting illustrates Rhetorics.

Scholars have debated the scope of rhetoric since ancient times. Although some have limited rhetoric to the specific realm of political discourse, many modern scholars liberate it to encompass every aspect of culture. Deermouse detects a flurry of it about.

An occurrence of something (countable instances) in large numbers, happening suddenly or in a short period of time; a volley, a barrage.


Article style[edit]

The MoS is the style manual for Wikipedia articles.

The Manual of Style presents Wikipedia's house style. The goal is to make using Wikipedia easier and more intuitive by promoting clarity and cohesion while helping editors write articles with consistent and precise language, layout, and formatting.

Templates[edit]

Initial edits[edit]

Deermouse in the house, first day's exploration.

Hyperlink destination[edit]

At present, correction to 'List of cooking techniques', foam (culinary) link has been made as it went to the wrong page.

Start a conversation to improve an article[edit]

Also a conversation on the 'High-altitude cooking' article's 'talk page' is instigated. Arbitrary and erroneous information are on the article page.

Utilizing resources for help and collaboration[edit]

There are things to learn here, help will soon come forth.

Grammatical edits[edit]

Improve sentence structure within the Overview of 'Human nutrition',

Prospect for discussion[edit]

The article Human nutrition is long. and appears to be WHO and Hunger biased. It is a project of Rice University with other relevance and this article has magnetic attraction for other than its purposeful content.

The history of the study of human nutrition could be a Featured article. An overview of nutrients, lipids, vitamins, minerals and trace elements and their intake into the Human digestive system, and assimilation into the human body and its organs and the ensuing benefits of health would suffice for this subject.
Protocols, A remark of this nature could be introduced to the ambassador program and course assignments to improve Wikipedia articles, or perhaps the talk page. There are things to learn here, help will soon come forth.

Initial gathering of resource and organizing[edit]

Deermouse's user page is being constructed to facilitate navigation of the wikirealm.

The overview of this page denotes the Native American cultures (which gave me my name). The hyperlink destination is Native Americans (disambiguation) page. The page title does not label the (disambiguation) because there is no article for Native Americans and the page you land on from the hyperlink does not tell you it is a disambiguation page. The contents of this destination page are many non-american items. Look at Native. Look at American.

Words which depict a slang usage or abusive usage should be separated from the Subject word and perhaps categorized under such usage or terms of abusive language.

'Native American cultures', as used on this page refer to the American Indians of various nations (Tribal) within the realm of America. This too gives way for North and South Americas (Two different continents){citation needed}.

Indigenous, yet another word often used to mean native, in context of being born in the land of wherever, and the hyperlink destination - an ambiguous disambiguation page (The first entry is not even the word indigenous (as prescribed in the disambiguation MoS). The MoS for disambiguation pages will be the key to unlock this ambiguous use of disambiguation pages. Perhaps an administrator or team of project participants could help resolve this. Deermouse is in.

Further research has finally directed me to Native Americans in the United States.

Projects to research/join/edit some of their pages[edit]

Deermouse has been editing now (3 days); Native Americans and the Americas are now two Projects with mingled project entities as well the very first edit ( Human nutrition* ) is a jambalaya of ideas which need to be separated into their proper places, as this is a reference material as opposed to essay material. Deermouse wonders who is in charge around here. Maybe a journal of visited pages ordered by 'Who's in command'. Wonderment. I am just a mouse.


More edits 3rd day[edit]

Basil talk added dates for term in office, and ref outside ip address and need to review the guidelines. see cite.

A couple of more edits to some talk pages should get some response.

Day 4 Hello Deermouse[edit]

Thank you. Responses to Deermouse with help are in my Talk:page.

End notes to an adventure[edit]

I've learned a bit. I've read many guidelines, manuals, templates, helps, so many other things which distract from purpose. So I take the advise and recommendations, moved my first four days to my sandbox, and will commence a more discrete movement through this realm.

Deermouse's user page may not be conventional for the User:page purpose, however, I entreat, please allow:

The user's of Wikipedia, those folks out there who need info, they visit, and I likewise research and love to find new information, so I constructed my User:page as I researched the important guides to this editing, and practice with my usage of the code, it now comes to learning more things of editing, and communicating; 4 days, Deermouse has made a diff.

Help here[edit]

Should I move it to archive (How?)

Should I continue to practice editing on my User:page?

How many sub-pages and where do they live?

Are they the archives?

Serbian cuisine[edit]

Hyperlink to Romania wiki from the English wikipedea help desk requested clarification on the destination page, translation problems ensue. Similarities exist with hyperlink destinations going to disambiguation debates and non-subject matter causing confusion in research.

Question: Do we edit to improve ease of navigation of related material, or do we edit to create conglomerate mass information in one easy place to find everything?
Evolution of research - Paper bound volumes of subject matter indexed at the end of 20 or more volumes. The hyperlink is 21st century access to all the related subject interest and concerns. The subject article being filled with other interest and not immediate subject reference.
