Please do not remove maintenance templates from pages on Wikipedia, as you did to Draft: Tara Smith, without resolving the problem that the template refers to, or giving a valid reason for the removal in the edit summary. Your removal of this template does not appear constructive, and has been reverted. AFC decline notices say that they should not be removed. That is because they provide a history for the reviewers. Do not remove them. Robert McClenon (talk) 22:30, 8 November 2020 (UTC)
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. Thank you. MarnetteD|Talk 05:19, 10 November 2020 (UTC)
- @MarnetteD: Sorry, I thought he died! --SoothingRelaxation (talk) 05:20, 10 November 2020 (UTC)
- I've been refreshing my Google search for 15 minutes. IMO the death of someone with as big of a public profile as Baker would hit the news fairly quickly. That is a major reason why a source is needed. Regards. MarnetteD|Talk 05:26, 10 November 2020 (UTC)
- Thanks! --SoothingRelaxation (talk) 05:28, 10 November 2020 (UTC)
- I just saw this kind person. Where did you get the information from? I can't see it online. Please add a reference or remove it. Whispyhistory (talk) 07:25, 10 November 2020 (UTC)

A YouTube video is not a reliable source for referencing content in a biography of a living person - especially content that claims that the person has died. Please review Wikipedia's policy on biographies of living people and the references required, and please let me know if you have any questions. You can message me by visiting my user talk page. Thanks! ~Oshwah~(talk) (contribs) 14:52, 10 November 2020 (UTC)
- @Oshwah: Thank you for letting me know! Plus, I'm your biggest fan! --SoothingRelaxation (talk) 16:43, 10 November 2020 (UTC)
- I appreciate the kind words. :-) Please don't hesitate to let me know if you have questions or need help with anything, and I'll be happy to lend a hand. Cheers - ~Oshwah~(talk) (contribs) 17:14, 10 November 2020 (UTC)

. DrKay (talk) 20:51, 11 November 2020 (UTC)Help!
@Oshwah: DrKay blocked me for no reason. Just because I removed a deletion tag off Chills (YouTuber). He is famous and has 5.33 million subscribers. I even added at least one reliable source. https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCN64HIrZNqFQYZ2BuyY-4zg --SoothingRelaxation (talk) 20:50, 11 November 2020 (UTC)
- I endorse the block - the vandalism at this AFD page was grounds for a "final warning" all by itself even if you hadn't had any other problems, which you did, removing that deletion tag you mentioned not once but 3 times, one short of a WP:3RR block (since your edit was itself improper, 3RR did not apply to reverting it). This is only a 3-day block, you'll be able to edit before the AFD expires. davidwr/(talk)/(contribs) 20:59, 11 November 2020 (UTC)
Please read before you come back in 3 days
Welcome to Wikipedia. We were all new editors once. Well, maybe not Jimbo Wales, some say he was a Wiki-greybeard since before he founded it. *joke*
I've taken a quick skim through Special:Contributions/SoothingRelaxation and it looks like you still haven't quite gotten the hang of how things work around here.
Wikipedia is a collaborative project with - and I'm guessing here but I'm probably guessing on the low side - thousands of participants in any given day. This means we have to have some rules that each of us needs to follow.
Before you come back, please read Wikipedia:Policies and guidelines, Wikipedia:Core content policies, Wikipedia:List of policies, and Wikipedia:List of guidelines. In particular, read the policies and guidelines related to conduct and behavior, and those related to content.
An tutorial for new users is available at Help:Introduction to policies and guidelines. You might also find Wikipedia:Simplified ruleset helpful. davidwr/(talk)/(contribs) 21:10, 11 November 2020 (UTC)
- Also, I made a slight change to your user page because of this rule. davidwr/(talk)/(contribs) 21:25, 11 November 2020 (UTC)

. DrKay (talk) 20:44, 16 November 2020 (UTC)British vs. American English
Thank you for your attention to detail in fixing spelling and other errors.
However, sometimes an error isn't an error at all, but a regional difference in language.
In articles about "American" topics, "American" spelling is used. Wikipedia:Manual of Style#National varieties of English has some guidance in this area.
I undid some of the spelling changes that you did in this edit.
Again, thank you for your diligence. davidwr/(talk)/(contribs) 21:08, 16 November 2020 (UTC)
