DYK for 2025 Philippine general election
[edit]On 9 August 2024, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article 2025 Philippine general election, which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status.

Welcome to the tropical cyclone WikiProject!
[edit]Hi there Nuggeteer! (if I'm addressing you directly, does it need the "The" beforehand?)
Welcome to the tropical cyclone WikiProject, and thanks for your edits already. I saw you added some aftermath and other information to Tropical Storm Kai-tak. First off, you used sources - huge thanks for that! It's long been an issue that editors will add info without references.
One quick note about your edit. I saw you add "400-kilometer radius", "400-km diameter", and "500-km diameter" in the preparations section. Would you mind adding conversions to imperial units? I was going to do it, but I was going to reach out and welcome you anyway, and figured it's a chance for you to improve upon what you've already added. You can do something like - {{convert|400|km|mi|abbr=on}} - which is a way to automatically convert the units from one to the other. Also it's pretty minor, but consistency is ideal within articles, so I would pick either "diameter" or "radius", since one is just two times the other. Having both the metric and imperial units is a way to make Wikipedia articles accessible to everyone. Same deal with "4.1–14 meters", which you could write as 4.1 to 4.14 m (13.5 to 13.6 ft). Check the edit window if you want to see the coding for how to do that.
Again, thanks for joining the project. Let me know if you have any questions. And hopefully you're not annoyed by my nitpick here about the units, just wanted to give you a heads up in case you're sticking around ;) Cheers! ♫ Hurricanehink (talk) 17:16, 9 August 2024 (UTC)
- Hi! Just addressing your concerns. The name is actually supposed to be full (pretty confusing). I also addressed the concerns that you made about the kilometers, thank you for noticing! Thanks,

Your contributed article, List of English words or terms that have been trademarked or copyrighted
[edit]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.
Hello, I noticed that you recently created a new page, List of English words or terms that have been trademarked or copyrighted. First, thank you for your contribution; Wikipedia relies solely on the efforts of volunteers such as you. Unfortunately, the page you created covers a topic on which we already have a page – List of generic and genericized trademarks. Because of the duplication, your article has been tagged for speedy deletion. Please note that this is not a comment on you personally and we hope you will continue helping to improve Wikipedia. If the topic of the article you created is one that interests you, then perhaps you would like to help out at List of generic and genericized trademarks. If you have new information to add, you might want to discuss it at the article's talk page.
If you think the article you created should remain separate, 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. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator, or if you have already done so, you can place a request here. Additionally if you would like to have someone review articles you create before they go live so they are not nominated for deletion shortly after you post them, allow me to suggest the article creation process and using our search feature to find related information we already have in the encyclopedia. Try not to be discouraged. Wikipedia looks forward to your future contributions. 49ersBelongInSanFrancisco (talk) 05:11, 16 August 2024 (UTC)
