| ⚫ | :Opening a discussion when an edit is disputed is good. However, your evident lack of experience suggests that (if you are going to be a useful contributor) you need to be brought up to speed on a number of points. Please note the following. |
||
| ⚫ | :1) New discussions should be at the bottom of the talk page. If you start a new discussion by clicking on the [New section] tab this will happen automatically. (The next time I come by here I will move this discussion to the bottom.) |
||
| ⚫ | :2) All discussion comments should be signed with the "four tildes" ("<nowiki>~~~~</nowiki>"). (Or click on the signature button in the editor toolbar.) |
||
| ⚫ | :3) All article content (especially any disputed content) should be ''cited'' to [[WP:RS|reliable sources]] with a citation. |
||
| ⚫ | :4) URLs are ''not'' citations. Citations include additional information about the source, and are typically created using standard templates, such as {{tl|cite book}}. |
||
| ⚫ | :5) A single source, no matter how authoritative it may seem on its own, does not necessarily justify inclusion. In general we go by the [[WP:WEIGHT]] of mainstream expert opinion. (For seismology there are several excellent encylopedias that carry great weight of authority.) |
||
| ⚫ | :6) Keep in mind that Wikipedia is intended for a general audience. While striving for (say) correct definitions, we generally avoid pedantic details of little interest to non-experts. |
||
| ⚫ | :7) The lead section should be a summary of what is in the article. If there is any reason for (say) a more precise definition, that should be done in an appropriate location, not in the lead. |
||
| ⚫ | :8) To make a case for revising the definition you may be expected to present expert sources – not Wiktionary! – establishing that the revision is better than the existing definition, and to quote those sources, not just wave at them. |
