I've just noticed that you've made a few new articles. That's excellent! However, could I convince you to pace it out a little bit until you've got the hang of wikilinking, stubs, categories, and their ilk? - brenneman ^(t)^(c) 09:53, 23 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Other revenue

A tag has been placed on Other revenue, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is a very short article providing little or no context to the reader. Please see Wikipedia:Stub for our minimum information standards for short articles. Also please note that articles must be on notable subjects and should provide references to reliable sources that verify their content.

Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself. If you plan to expand the article, you can request that administrators wait a while for you to add contextual material. To do this, affix the template {{hangon}} to the article and state your intention on the article's talk page. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this.

Generally Accepted Accounting Principles

Could I trouble you to please discuss your recent changes to the article on Generally Accepted Accounting Principles on the article's talk page first? You seem to have replaced the entire article with some kind of personal essay; it might be better to get some feedback on a way to replace the current text with something more encyclopedic in nature.

Depreciated value

Hi I’m just looking at this new article and wondering what content here isn’t already covered at depreciation? Thanks Mccapra (talk) 16:20, 9 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Hello,

Yes, it seems that the depreciation page provides an adequate discussion. I added the page to expand on a comment I added to a different page. If you'd like, please delete it. I'll update the link tomorrow.

Best

Hello,

I updated the links to the Depreciation page. The Depreciated value page can be deleted.

I also have a question, there are fairly significant differences in the accounting procedures used to account for asset disposals under IFRS/US GAAP and some national GAAPs. Is it something worth mentioning?

Hello Diannaa,

I did not realize that quoting an accounting standard (including citations indicating source) would violate Wikipedia copyright rules. I read the following and assumed that, as long as I cite the source, I can use brief verbatim textual excerpts.

Specifically: There is no automatic entitlement to use non-free content in an article or elsewhere on Wikipedia. Articles and other Wikipedia pages may, in accordance with the guideline, use brief verbatim textual excerpts from copyrighted media, properly attributed or cited to its original source or author (as described by the citation guideline),and specifically indicated as direct quotations via quotation marks, blockquote, Quote, or a similar method. Other non-free content—including all copyrighted images, audio and video clips, and other media files that lack a free content license—may be used on the English Wikipedia only where all 10 of the following criteria are met.

In any event, it looks like I forgot to include quotation marks. I edited the page to fix this. My goal is not to violate any copyright. Please let me know if this is acceptable.

I would like to continue to contribute to but when I'm discussing an issue outlined in an accounting standard, it is impossible to not provide an explanation of what the accounting standards actually say.

Another option would be to simply paraphrase the guidance. For example, I could re-write the introductory paragraph like this: In financial accounting (CON 8.4^[1]), gains are the result of circumstances, events or transactions which affect the entity except revenue or owner investments . Gains are usually the result of holding gains, exchange transactions, events or nonreciprocal transactions.

Please let me know which method I should use in the future. Mladek (talk) 06:50, 11 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
