Disruption of Wikipedia talk:Special:Ancientpages

Since Special:Ancientpages is a special page, it cannot be updated by ordinary editors (even administrators). You may want to post a bug on bugzilla to request that it be updated, but campaigning on the wiki itself won't accomplish anything. —Random832 14:34, 28 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Carré D'agneau

Another editor has added the {{prod}} template to the article Carré D'agneau, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but the editor doesn't believe it satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and has explained why in the article (see also Wikipedia:What Wikipedia is not and Wikipedia:Notability). Please either work to improve the article if the topic is worthy of inclusion in Wikipedia or discuss the relevant issues at its talk page. If you remove the {{prod}} template, the article will not be deleted, but note that it may still be sent to Wikipedia:Articles for deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached.

Something odd you might want to look into

I happened to notice something rather odd while browsing through some pages. This appears to be a little-used IP address using your signature in a welcome template. It could be a good-faith mistake or confusion, or it might be something else. I just thought you might want to know about it. Pyrospirit (talk · contribs) 19:12, 16 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I hope you know that all edits made by wikipedian editors to wikipedia are released under the terms of the GFDL, so you can't claim text as yours. If you're gonna put it here; any text you submit can be modified; built upon; deleted; changed; moved; turned into an article; ect. - -[The Spooky One] | ^{[t c r]} 05:09, 13 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

And also, it's not stealing, it's simply creating an article. At Anypoint; somone could have moved your subpage to the wikipdia article on it. and as for the creating the 3,000,000 article thing; that seems very hard to do and highly inprobable; because there have been over 3,000,000 articles, just not 3,000,000 that were kept. Alot of newly created articles get deleted. - -[The Spooky One] | ^{[t c r]} 05:13, 13 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

"Undoing a possible troll revert."

Please, assume good faith. It looked to me like you were merely posting to get something more popular on Digg. Have a nice day! :) — neuro^(talk) 22:42, 24 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I'm unsure if it is suitable at all, as it is merely promoting an entry, but since you don't appear to just be here to promote it I won't think anything more of it. As for the question itself, if it is already a viral, everyone on Digg will have already seen it. People only Digg if they find something new or exciting which hasn't been done before. Merry Christmas, by the way. :) — neuro^(talk) 11:41, 25 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Why do you keep posting links to articles that don't exist? What is the point of that? If you think those articles should exist, then write them; then link to them. Baseball Bugs ^{What's up, Doc?} 04:33, 27 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

No original research

I didn't make that up. Please go and read Wikipedia:No original research, which is one of our most important policies. It basically says what you wrote in the edit summary: We can't include something you've just seen on TV, unless you actually cite the source (the news report). If you would've seen something as an eye witness instead, for example, we couldn't include what you've seen at all, unless reliable sources report what you've seen, too. --Conti|✉ 12:14, 28 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Original research is theory, etc. without reliable sources to back them up. The age-check page is source enough, which reinforces the fact that it's solid fact. Moreover, original research ≠ solid fact, as proven here. --Let Us Update Special:Ancientpages. 21:27, 29 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

The policy is called No Original Research, this means (ta-da!) No Original Research!! Now the edit you keep re-adding is (by your own admission) Original Research, and as it has no reliable sources other than your own Original Research, then it does not belong in the article. Until you can provide some reliable third party sources then your edit will always be reverted, and in this case be reverted by more than one editor. If you continue to add that OR then your edits will be seen as vandalism and although you are only making the edit once a day (to avoid 3RR) it can still lead to you being banned. At this moment you are the one trying to add unsourced info, and policy states that this info will be removed, which is what I and other editors have been doing.

Autism edit war

Please, you've been around Wikipedia long enough to know that what you're doing is wrong. Wikipedia is not censored: we are here to report the facts, even if they are uncomfortable ones. I don't know whether people with AS are more likely to be pedophiles and/or murderers than NT's; having a guy who was both on a list of people with AS does not provide us with an answer to that question. To omit his entry on the list, however, is censorship. If you question Dante's diagnosis, then let's discuss it. Adding an unreliable link claiming Woody Allen has AS is not the right thing to do. I would like to warn you also that you are on the verge of violating WP:3RR and I will not revert your last edit for this reason. Soap ^Talk/_{Contributions} 01:38, 16 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Article # 3,000,000

If you want to join the race to get the 3,000,000th article, you'd better hurry, because it's due to go up tonight. My apologies if you missed out on your chance. -- Soap ^Talk/_{Contributions} 23:01, 16 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I was on a 5-hour drive when this happened. Looks like that I'm predestined to be on a mode of transportation somewhere else every time Wikipedia hits an odd millionth article. 1,000,000 - I was riding a bicycle on my university's campus the moment it happened. 3,000,000 - I was driving my sister back home on the Interstate. Apparently, I'm on the computer if an even millionth article hits. 2,000,000 - I was on here. I made Varney, Kentucky at the moment that many users rushed to make their article the 2,000,000th. I pulled the trigger too early; Varney, Kentucky was Article # 1,999,994. --Let Us Update Special:Ancientpages. 07:53, 17 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

FMyLife spin-off listing

Hi there, LUUWDA. Just a note regarding the FMyLife article. In your counter-undo summary, you said "many website articles talk about spin-offs, and how/why they're spin-offs in the first place. This is fine. GMH was created because of FML". Unfortunately, your addition falls into the category of link-farming, since all you provide is a link to a site which is largely unrelated in practical value to FML, and doesn't establish a plausibly notable connection to FML. It's for this reason that several other similar additions have been reverted in the past couple of weeks alone, as they are largely gratuitous and irrelevant to the article itself. Please see WP:EL for some more detail. The fact that some other articles also violate convention doesn't set a precedent, however. Thanks. KaySL (talk) 04:47, 20 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy deletion nomination of Abu Yedda

Please refrain from introducing inappropriate pages, such as Abu Yedda, to Wikipedia. Doing so is not in accordance with our policies. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag - if no such tag exists then the page is no longer a speedy delete candidate and adding a hangon tag is unnecessary), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the page does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that they userfy the page or have a copy emailed to you.

It might not have been a hoax, in which case could you please contain your writing to a formal encyclopedic style. Your contributions are valued by the community but this is not the Lonely Planet Guide and they will attract less negative perception or risk of deletion if you drop the light hearted banter. It would be great if you could please clean up what I had left in it. Thanks.--Kudpung (talk) 17:29, 25 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy deletion nomination of Shawn Ahmed

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.
You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on Shawn Ahmed requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a person or group of people, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hang on}} to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion, or "db", tag; if no such tag exists, then the page is no longer a speedy delete candidate and adding a hang-on tag is unnecessary), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.

Evidently someone accused me of duckpuppetry. No one bothered to Checkuse? Anyway, over 50 people attended Shawn Ahmed's speech. I don't think I'd be the only one who was interested in creating an article on him. Therefore, it would be quite reasonable for another student at the college he spoke at, to copy my article from my user subpage after getting deleted, and reinstating it. Of course they would give it another title because a lot of users would think that titling it something else would evade it from the deleting user's eyes.

If anyone decided to Checkuse and pull up the IP the article was edited from, it would be from a university IP shared by many mobile devices through our campus-wide wi-fi network. Even I would have showed up under the IP, along with many other devices. Sorry that anyone thought I was being a duckpuppet. --Let Us Update Wikipedia: Dusty Articles 07:43, 24 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Your contributed article, Gaddafi's drain

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.
You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

Hello, I notice that you recently created a new page, Gaddafi's drain. First, thank you for your contribution; Wikipedia relies solely on the efforts of volunteers such as yourself. Unfortunately, the page you created covers a topic on which we already have a page - Death of Muammar Gaddafi. Because of the duplication, your article has been tagged for speedy deletion. Please note that this is not a comment on you personally and we hope you will continue helping to improve Wikipedia. If the topic of the article you created is one that interests you, then perhaps you would like to help out at Death of Muammar Gaddafi - you might like to discuss new information at the article's talk page.

If you think that the article you created should remain separate, contest the deletion by clicking on the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion". Doing so will take you to the talk page where you will find a pre-formatted place for you to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. You can also visit the page's talk page directly to give your reasons, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, you can contact one of these administrators to request that the administrator userfy the page or email a copy to you. Additionally if you would like to have someone review articles you create before they go live so they are not nominated for deletion shortly after you post them, allow me to suggest the article creation process and using our search feature to find related information we already have in the encyclopedia. Try not to be discouraged. Wikipedia looks forward to your future contributions. andy (talk) 11:24, 24 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Proposed deletion of Michael Swaim

The article Michael Swaim has been proposed for deletion because it appears to have no references. Under Wikipedia policy, all newly created biographies of living persons must have at least one reference to a reliable source that directly supports material in the article. The nominator also raised the following concern:

All biographies of living people created after March 18, 2010, must have references.

If you created the article, please don't be offended. Instead, consider improving the article. For help on inserting references, see Referencing for beginners, or ask at the help desk. Once you have provided at least one reliable source, you may remove the {{prod blp}} tag. Please do not remove the tag unless the article is sourced. If you cannot provide such a source within ten days, the article may be deleted, but you can request that it be undeleted when you are ready to add one.

We noticed though that when you edited Cloud Atlas (film), you added links pointing to the disambiguation pages Fusion and South Pacific (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver).

List of defunct companies

Hello, LUUWDA, and thank you for your contributions!

I wanted to let you know it seems an article you worked on, List of defunct companies, is copied from another Wikipedia page, List of business failures. It's fine to do this as long as you provide the following information in the edit summary:

a link to the article you copied from
the date you copied it

You can do this now by editing the page, making any minor edit to the article, and adding the above information into the edit summary.

If you're still not sure how to fix the problem, please leave a message at the help desk. It's possible that I made a mistake, so feel free to remove the tag I placed on the article.

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.
You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on Freerice requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about an organization or company, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please read more about what is generally accepted as notable.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, you can place a request here. K6ka (talk | contribs) 16:35, 7 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Fluther

Is in mainspace. I see you have a version in your userspace and it seems to contain some superior information. Perhaps you could merge it? Candleabracadabra (talk) 18:18, 3 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]

You can do it for me; I permit you to copypaste over the details the mainspace may need. With so much else to do in my life now, I haven't gotten back to edit much lately, and I don't even care to log into my username today, but I did see this notification in my email, so that's how I knew that you left me in the message in the first place. --2602:30A:2EE6:8600:4894:C26:A80F:38E4 (talk) 19:07, 3 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Proposed deletion of Alorica

The article Alorica has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

The coverage (references, external links, etc.) does not seem sufficient to justify this article passing Wikipedia:General notability guideline and the more detailed Wikipedia:Notability (companies) requirement. If you disagree and deprod this, please explain how it meets them on the talk page in the form of "This article meets criteria A and B because..." and ping me back. Thank you,

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. _{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here} 11:42, 1 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

New deal for page patrollers

Hi LUUWDA,

In order to better control the quality of new pages, keep out the spam, and welcome the genuine newbies, the current system we introduced in 2011 is being updated and improved. The documentation and tutorials have also been revised and given a facelift. Most importantly a new user group New Page Reviewer has been created.

Under the new rule, you may find that you are temporarily unable to mark new pages as reviewed. However, this is nothing to worry about - most current experienced patrollers are being accorded the the new right without the need to apply, and if you have significant previous experience of patrolling new pages, we strongly encourage you to apply for the new right as soon as possible - we need all the help we can get, and we are now providing a dynamic, supportive environment for your work.

Find out more about this exiting new user right now at New Page Reviewers and be sure to read the new tutorial before applying. MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 04:28, 13 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
