Speedy deletion nomination of Mumbo Jumbo (YouTuber)

Hello FlyingScotsman72,

I wanted to let you know that I just tagged Mumbo Jumbo (YouTuber) for deletion, because the article doesn't clearly say why the subject is important enough to be included in an encyclopedia.

If you feel that the article shouldn't be deleted and want more time to work on it, you can contest this deletion, but please don't remove the speedy deletion tag from the top.

You can leave a note on my talk page if you have questions. Cotton2 (talk) 10:24, 13 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Your submission at Articles for creation: Gert van Hoef (November 18)

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed! Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reason left by SwisterTwister was:

This submission's references do not adequately show the subject's notability. Wikipedia requires significant coverage about the subject in reliable sources that are independent of the subject—see the guidelines on the notability of people and the golden rule. Please improve the submission's referencing (see Wikipedia:Referencing for beginners), so that the information is verifiable, and there is clear evidence of why the subject is notable and worthy of inclusion in an encyclopedia. If additional reliable sources cannot be found for the subject, then it may not be suitable for Wikipedia at this time.

The comment the reviewer left was:

Deleted once before as a copyvio from his own website, and the fact this is still only largely supplied by his own website, and then also weighing that none of what's listed is convincing for the applicable notability, it's clearly too soon for notability.

Please check the submission for any additional comments left by the reviewer. You are encouraged to edit the submission to address the issues raised and resubmit when they have been resolved.

If you would like to continue working on the submission, go to Draft:Gert van Hoef and click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window.
If you need any assistance, you can ask for help at the Articles for creation help desk or on the reviewer's talk page.

Wikipedia requires significant coverage about the subject in reliable sources that are independent of the subject—see the guidelines on the notability of people and the golden rule.

The comment the reviewer left was:

More than half of the citations are to the official website. In order to establish notability you need to demonstrate that the subject has received sustained non trivial coverage in independent sources.

April 2021

Hi FlyingScotsman72! I noticed that you recently marked an edit as minor at List of longest tunnels that may not have been. "Minor edit" has a very specific definition on Wikipedia – it refers only to superficial edits that could never be the subject of a dispute, such as typo corrections or reverting obvious vandalism. Any edit that changes the meaning of an article is not a minor edit, even if it only concerns a single word. Please see Help:Minor edit for more information. Thank you.

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Longest flights, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Houston Airport.

King's Cross

Hi. You wrote "would you mind explaining in words (rather than a link) why you removed this pertinent information?"

It's been removed because it was unreferenced. See the verifiability policy " other people using the encyclopedia can check that the information comes from a reliable source. Its content is determined by previously published information rather than editors' beliefs, opinions, experiences, or unpublished original research. Even if you are sure something is true, it must have been previously published in a reliable source before you can add it.". This is added to by the Good Article criteria : "b. reliable sources are cited inline. All content that could reasonably be challenged, except for plot summaries and that which summarizes cited content elsewhere in the article, must be cited no later than the end of the paragraph (or line if the content is not in prose)"

If another editor thanked you for violating core policies, that is a problem in itself. Ritchie333 ^(talk) ^(cont) 09:26, 12 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, I'm Danners430. I noticed that you recently removed content from East Coast Main Line without adequately explaining why. In the future, it would be helpful to others if you described your changes to Wikipedia with an accurate edit summary. If this was a mistake, don't worry; the removed content has been restored. If you would like to experiment, please use your sandbox. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Please do not remove sourced statements without another source which refutes the source that’s already present. Feel free to re-add the additional information that you added with sources.
