I'm sorry

I'm sorry for my edit at Seung-Hui Cho. It was just a mistake. Thank you. Trentreznorfanboy (talk • Special:Contributions/Trentreznorfanboy/contribs) 17:10, 6 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

@Trentreznorfanboy:Sure man, don't worry about it! ----BlueRedPurpleGreen (talk) 04:31, 7 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Welcome to Wikipedia!

Hello, BlueRedPurpleGreen. Welcome to Wikipedia! Thanks for your contributions. My name is Howicus, and I've been an editor here for some time. Here are a few links to pages you might find helpful:

If you're working on creating a new article, you should take a look at this page on your first article. Also, this page has instructions on how to cite sources, complete with videos.

If all this Wikicode is a little overwhelming, WP:Cheatsheet may help untangle it.

If you're looking for a tutorial of sorts, The Wikipedia Adventure is a good option.

And if you need more help, I'd recommend getting live help at the Wikipedia help chat channel: click here to join. Additionally, you could ask me on my talk page, try the Teahouse (a help page for new users) or click here to ask for help here on your talk page and a volunteer will visit you here shortly

Please remember to sign your messages on talk pages by typing four tildes (~~~~); this will automatically insert your username and the date. Again, welcome, and have fun editing! Howicus (Did I mess up?) 01:16, 3 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]

List of gangs in the United States

Sorry, gangs don't have articles? Do you mean that gangs in the list must have articles? Also, if the Almighty Saints are no longer white, do they not belong in the Hispanic/Latin section? I'd put it there but I'm not sure what I'm really doing with that list. --Anon423 (talk) 02:28, 9 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Disambiguation link notification for March 10

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Gang presence in the United States military, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Norteño. Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

It's OK to remove this message. Also, to stop receiving these messages, follow these opt-out instructions. Thanks, DPL bot (talk) 08:54, 10 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Note about over-linking

Hi. As I mentioned in my edit summary here, linking to country names and other common terms is generally discouraged. Please take the time to read the guidelines at WP:OVERLINK, as it will save you wasting time and effort in the future. Thanks. --DAJF (talk) 05:11, 7 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

@DAJF:Okay, I'll try not to overlink no more. Thanks! ----BlueRedPurpleGreen (talk) 05:22, 7 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Attention BlueRedPurpleGreen

Please stop contributing the garbage and false information to the Mexican mafia wiki page. Everything that we add or delete is authentic and true. Please also stop promoting the armenian power gang on this page to.... We are assuming you must be Armenian.

Thank you

ArbCom elections are now open!

Hi,
You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.

WP:SECONDARY

It is essential. Drmies (talk) 05:20, 1 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Hey

"Take it to talk" is not some mantra you can keep repeating as if that means you don't have to explain yourself. I don't care about the history of some other editor; what I care about is that you are bloating the Suarez article, which at 140k is already ridiculously too long, with trivial information that lacks reliable, secondary sourcing. You consistently refuse to acknowledge that an encyclopedic article requires secondary sourcing, even though I just pointed you to the relevant policy. So I am going to revert you once more with the warning that you're violating our guidelines in regards to sourcing while failing to address the concerns uttered by other editors, that is, me. Drmies (talk) 05:35, 1 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

@Drmies: I knew that I should have waited 30 minutes. Usually Wikipedia editor live in the States. I know that it's very late in the U.S.! The paragraph has been there for a long time, and only one user has a problem with it. Mikiarg has been reverted by other users.

Your wait time has nothing to do with anything, certainly not with geography. You're clearly guilty of edit warring. And obviously Mikiarg isn't the only one who has a problem with it, which is why I reverted you. I note that you still have to address any of the substantial issues I raised. Looking at the text, it's just getting worse and worse: there is some clear linguistic incompetency (I don't know who wrote it). The paragraph makes a general statement, "Suárez also played in friendly matches with the reserve team of Barcelona", without giving any kind of context; the suggestion is that his playing those matches has something to do with his status at the time, but it's simply thrown in without any connection to the surrounding issue. It's reminiscent of the kind of writing one finds in articles on K-pop and Lego. If this article ever gets reviewed for GA status, that'll be one of the first sections thrown out.

February 2016

Hello, I'm WikiLeon. I noticed that you made a change to an article, Tila Tequila, but you didn't provide a reliable source. It's been removed and archived in the page history for now, but if you'd like to include a citation and re-add it, please do so! If you need guidance on referencing, please see the referencing for beginners tutorial, or if you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Although the section was sourced, the sources you chose were not reliable, which is needed when it comes to living people. w^L^{<speak·check>} 07:18, 1 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Proposed deletion of List of gangs outside the United States

The article List of gangs outside the United States has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Redundant to List of criminal enterprises, gangs, and syndicates

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages 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 page 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.
