Happy editing! monkey_smashing^keyboards (talk) 18:01, 12 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks! I’m hoping to do well on this website – to contribute to the collective knowledge of humanity in some way or other should be a good pastime! LonghairSpaceHistoryGuy (talk) 18:04, 12 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Hi! I noticed that you nominated an article for Good article status. You do not appear to have made significant edits to the article prior to this, and there is no discussion about nominating the article on its talk page. Current practice is that only editors who have significantly contributed to the article are able to nominate it (see the nomination instructions). I have consequently removed the nomination for now. Consider discussing whether the article is ready to be nominated with the article’s principal editors on the talk page. I am assuming good faith and you did contribute to the article a ton! However, your contributions only make up 6% of the article. – Flower (she/her; Accounts) 18:59, 8 December 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Oh, my apologies. I was going off WP:GANI which said that ‘If the nominator is either the author of less than 10% of the article or ranked sixth or lower in authorship,’ I was under the assumption that only one of these conditions had to be met – my mistake. I also don’t think I read the footnote fully… I’ll redo these steps and then renominate when ready, thanks! LonghairSpaceHistoryGuy (talk) 20:19, 8 December 2025 (UTC)[reply]
