For many traditional practitioners and fans of science fiction, the term "sci fi" is perceived as a pejorative, and attached to only the worst in that genre, like Amazon Women on the Moon. Please refrain from its use in most contexts. --Orange Mike | Talk 19:29, 30 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks, Mike, I made this change, however younger generations don't have this hang-up and the abbreviation has mostly lost this pejorative connotation, perhaps due to SyFy network, etc. I've noticed many contemporary writers, such as Jonathan Hickman, routinely use the abbreviation sci-fi without any negative implications.

If you are as close as St. Paul, I do hope you're urging your Fiction and the Future students to come to WisCon in May of 2022. There is no better place on the planet to study the topics of gender, sexual identity, race, class, appropriation, etc. in SF than a WisCon. I'm just a civil service clerk, but WisCon is where I got to talk to Ursula LeGuin and Octavia Butler, to say nothing of Samuel R. Delany and Nisi Shawl. There's just nothing like it. --Orange Mike | Talk 20:02, 30 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
In fact, I live in Canada and will not be returning to the Midwest any time soon. My course is online due to the pandemic. However, I'm a big supporter of WisCon's mission and will be sure to let my students know. I regret I was never able to make it during my years in residence in the Twin Cities, as I tended to leave the area once the school year concluded. Take care, and thanks again.

You recently created an article, Le Petit Théâtre de l'Absolu. If you look at it, it currently has 4 issues. It is also nominated for deletion. Unfortunately, it is unlikely to survive deletion in its current state. It currently contains orginal research, is not notable, and does not seem to cite any legitamate references. Two references are not links, two do not work, and the one that does says nothing related to the article. The only thing I can find about this theatre is on Wikipedia, which, while I have not checked everything, of what I have checked, seem to either have been added by you, added after this article was made, or added from an article with one of two addition methods I listed above (they are closely related or link to each other). Due to this, I am starting to this that it is a hoax. DO NOT CREATE HOAXES. This might have been a mistake or might have been intentional, but regardless is very harmful to Wikipedia. Wikipedia is a trusted source of reliable information, and this potentionally fake articles infomation could pop up in various other places. If this is not a hoax, please fix the 4 other issues and apoligies for the error, if it is, tag it with either {{Db-hoax}} {{Db-g7}} or both to rapidly delete it. If you don't want to work on it, delete it with {{Db-g7}}. If this article was a mistake delete it with {{Db-error}} or move it. Regardless, this needs rapid attention. @Thenewobjective Starship SN20 (talk) 21:31, 7 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
An article you recently created, Sarenco, is not suitable as written to remain published. An article needs more information and citations from reliable, independent sources to remain in the mainspace. Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of "
Draft:
" before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline, has suitable content and thus is ready for mainspace, click the Submit the draft for review! button atop the article.
