Creating an article is a demanding task:take your time for it and don't forget to use a [[Help:Draft|draft]]. Keep in mind that for an article to appear in the encyclopedia, there must be `` independent '' and quality sources that can verify its reputation. So ask yourself these questions:''
+
Créer un article est une tâche exigeante : prenez votre temps pour cela et n'oubliez pas d'utiliser un [[Aide:Brouillon|brouillon]]. Gardez à l'esprit que pour qu'un article figure dans l'encyclopédie, il doit exister des sources ''indépendantes'' et de qualité qui permettent de vérifier sa notoriété. Ainsi, posez-vous ces questions :
−
*Have I checked that the chosen subject is not already covered?
+
* Ai-je vérifié que le sujet choisi n'est pas déjà traité ?
−
*Who is talking about my topic? Is it a recognized media?
+
* Qui parle de mon sujet ? Est-ce un média reconnu ?  
−
*Are the [[Wikipedia:Wikipedia:Eligibility criteria|eligibility criteria]] met for my topic?
+
* Les [[Wikipédia:Critères d'admissibilité|critères d'admissibilité]] sont-ils remplis pour mon sujet ?

By answering these three questions in a thoughtful way, you will know '''[[Help:Article eligibility|if your topic is well chosen]]''' and you will have every chance of [[help:how to create a article|laying a new stone]] of the immense edifice that is Wikipedia. <small>

En répondant à ces trois questions de manière réfléchie, vous saurez '''[[Aide:Admissibilité d'un article|si votre sujet est bien choisi]]''' et vous aurez toutes les chances de [[aide:comment créer un article|poser une nouvelle pierre]] de l'immense édifice qu'est Wikipédia.<small>

;Conseils
−
 
+
:*Les '''cours''' de lycée ou d'université peuvent être utiles pour élaborer et construire des articles. Cependant, faites attention à ne pas perdre de vue que la démarche encyclopédique est distincte de la démarche éducative. Un article ne ressemble pas à un cours (pour cela il y a notamment la [[Wikiversité]]).  
−
;Advice
+
:*Lire d'autres encyclopédies peut être utile pour éviter tout point de vue et pour repérer des thèmes en rapport étroit avec le sujet traité.  
−
:*High school or college '''courses''' can be useful for developing and building articles. However, be careful not to lose sight of the fact that the encyclopedic process is distinct from the educational process. An article does not look like a course (for this there is in particular [[Wikiversity]]).
+
:*Faites des '''recherches personnelles''' : faire la synthèse de revues, livres, conférences, sites Internet, documentaires… est très enrichissante et permet de tendre à l'exhaustivité.  
−
:*Reading other encyclopedias can be useful to avoid any point of view and to locate themes closely related to the subject being dealt with.
+
:*'''En aucun cas vous ne devez recopier sur Wikipédia un texte provenant d'une publication existante'''. Ce type d'apport est illégal et engage votre responsabilité. Évitez également de copier un contenu que vous avez créé et publié ailleurs. </small>
−
:*Do '''personal research''':synthesizing journals, books, conferences, websites, documentaries, etc. is very enriching and allows you to be exhaustive.
 
−
:* '''Under no circumstances should you copy to Wikipedia a text from an existing publication'''. This type of contribution is illegal and engages your responsibility. Also, avoid copying content that you have created and published elsewhere. </small>
