Citing sources[edit]
Please do not add or change content without citing a reliable source. Please review the guidelines at Wikipedia:Citing sources and take this opportunity to add references to the article. JBW (talk) 11:14, 26 March 2024 (UTC)
- Can you be more specific about what addition or change I did without a reliable source? I would assume the Open Geospatial Consortium is a reliable source. Or was it something else? Jan-Erik Vinje (talk) 13:08, 26 March 2024 (UTC)
- In your edit to the article Open Geospatial Consortium you gave no citation at all; the only evidence for the information which you posted was the fact that somebody who has created a Wikipedia account says so. JBW (talk) 13:14, 26 March 2024 (UTC)
- I didn´t know it was a requirement since the list of standards on the page was full of standards without citations/sources already.
- Here are some sources:
- About page on OGC
- https://www.ogc.org/standard/geopose/
- The actual standard document:
- https://docs.ogc.org/is/21-056r11/21-056r11.html
- The homepage created by the OGC Standads Working group on GeoPose:
- https://geopose.org/ Here you find links to early implementers of the standard.
- I also attempted to start an article about GeoPose with such links, but as noob it didn´t pass the bar and the draft was rejected. It seems I have to do a lot more work to create an article theese days than in the arly days of wikipedia.
- TO be meta: Interestingly the GeoPose standard is a sort of reference/link in itself.. The link between the digital and the physical world for instance allowing the linking of a digital twin with proper position and orientation in the real world through the GeoPose.

- I now tried again with adding a the standard page as a source. Jan-Erik Vinje (talk) 13:37, 26 March 2024 (UTC)

- Unfortunately, you are right about creating an article taking more work now than was the case in the early days. A large proportion of new editors who set out to create new articles find it a frustrating task, with their work repeatedly being rejected, for various different reasons, and many of them eventually give up and leave. My advice to new editors is that it is best to start by making small improvements to existing articles, rather than creating new articles. That way any mistakes you make will be small ones, and you won't have the discouraging experience of repeatedly seeing hours of work deleted. Gradually, you will get to learn how Wikipedia works, and after a while you will know enough about what is acceptable to be able to write whole new articles without fear that they will be deleted. Over the years I have found that editors who start by making small changes to existing articles and work up from there have a far better chance of having a successful time here than those who jump right into creating new articles from the start.
