Montage parody
[edit]Please stop adding tags and PROD'ding a redirect. The purpose of a redirect is to forward the page to an appropriate target. If you are unsure of the workings of Wikipedia I suggest you may need to step back from reviewing pages until you have more experience and knowledge with Wikipedia.McMatter (talk)/(contrib) 01:04, 21 October 2015 (UTC)
Adding uncategorized tag
[edit]Hello there! You've just added an uncategorized tag to my article, which I have subsequently removed, because it obviously shows the categories. Please be more careful next time.FiendYT ★ 05:07, 21 April 2016 (UTC)

[edit]Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Wikipedia. Your edits appear to be disruptive and have been or will be reverted or removed.
- If you are engaged in an article content dispute with another editor then please discuss the matter with the editor at their talk page, or the article's talk page. Alternatively you can read Wikipedia's dispute resolution page, and ask for independent help at one of the relevant notice boards.
- If you are engaged in any other form of dispute that is not covered on the dispute resolution page, please seek assistance at Wikipedia's Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents.
Please ensure you are familiar with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines, and please do not continue to make edits that appear disruptive, until the dispute is resolved through consensus. Continuing to edit disruptively could result in loss of editing privileges. You have tagged countless articles for errors that were never in the article (e.g. tagging a page for not having any categories while already have several categories) FiendYT ★ 05:15, 21 April 2016 (UTC)

A page you approved has been speedied
[edit]Hi, Virophage. I see on User talk:EpicTraveler that you reviewed and approved the page Flying Fox Jodhpur, which had at the time already been nominated for speedy as unambiguous advertising (which it certainly is). In view of this, and the other notes about your reviews that I see above, could you please try to become more familiar with our notability policies (and WP:NOTADVERTISING, too) before you review any more articles.

Altered speedy deletion rationale: Friends * Conditions Apply
[edit]Hello Virophage, and thanks for patrolling new pages! I am just letting you know that I deleted Friends * Conditions Apply, a page you tagged for speedy deletion, under a different criterion from the one you provided. The speedy deletion criteria are extremely narrow and specific, and the process is more effective if the correct criterion is used. You may wish to review the Criteria for Speedy Deletion before tagging further pages. Thank you. —SpacemanSpiff 11:10, 21 April 2016 (UTC)
Proposed deletion of 1100 in Italy
[edit]Proposed deletion of 1100 in Italy
[edit]The article 1100 in Italy has been proposed for deletion. The proposed deletion notice added to the article should explain why.
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. Optakeover(U)(T)(C) 14:33, 25 April 2016 (UTC)
Your recent edits
[edit]Hello and welcome to Wikipedia. When you add content to talk pages and Wikipedia pages that have open discussion (but never when editing articles), please be sure to sign your posts. There are two ways to do this. Either:
- Add four tildes ( ~~~~ ) at the end of your comment; or
- With the cursor positioned at the end of your comment, click on the signature button ( or ) located above the edit window.
This will automatically insert a signature with your username or IP address and the time you posted the comment. This information is necessary to allow other editors to easily see who wrote what and when.
Thank you. --SineBot (talk) 14:36, 25 April 2016 (UTC)
I believe that real references should be listed, rather than a standard list. Can you prove I'm wrong?Xx236 (talk) 08:23, 28 April 2016 (UTC)
Hello, Virophage. I wanted to let you know that I’m proposing an article that you started, 1109 in Italy, for deletion because I don't think it meets our criteria for inclusion. If you don't want the article deleted:
- edit the page
- remove the text that looks like this:
{{proposed deletion/dated...}}
- save the page
Also, be sure to explain why you think the article should be kept in your edit summary or on the article's talk page. If you don't do so, it may be deleted later anyway.
You can leave a note on my talk page if you have questions. Xx236 (talk) 08:25, 28 April 2016 (UTC)
Wikipedia and copyright
[edit]Hello Virophage, and welcome to Wikipedia. All or some of your addition(s) to Absaroka (proposed state) has had to be removed, as it appears to have added copyrighted material without permission from the copyright holder. While we appreciate your contributing to Wikipedia, there are certain things you must keep in mind about using information from your sources to avoid copyright or plagiarism issues here.
- You can only copy/translate a small amount of a source, and you must mark what you take as a direct quotation with double quotation marks (") and cite the source using an inline citation. You can read about this at Wikipedia:Non-free content in the sections on "text". See also Help:Referencing for beginners, for how to cite sources here.
- Aside from limited quotation, you must put all information in your own words and structure, in proper paraphrase. Following the source's words too closely can create copyright problems, so it is not permitted here; see Wikipedia:Close paraphrasing. (There is a college-level introduction to paraphrase, with examples, hosted by the Online Writing Lab of Purdue.) Even when using your own words, you are still, however, asked to cite your sources to verify information and to demonstrate that the content is not original research.
- Our primary policy on using copyrighted content is Wikipedia:Copyrights. You may also want to review Wikipedia:Copy-paste.
- If you own the copyright to the source you want to copy or are a designated agent, you may be able to license that text so that we can publish it here. However, there are steps that must be taken to verify that license before you do. See Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials.
- In very rare cases (that is, for sources that are public domain or compatibly licensed), it may be possible to include greater portions of a source text. However, please seek help at the help desk before adding such content to the article. 99.9% of sources may not be added in this way, so it is necessary to seek confirmation first. If you do confirm that a source is public domain or compatibly licensed, you will still need to provide full attribution; see Wikipedia:Plagiarism for the steps you need to follow.
- Also note that Wikipedia articles may not be copied or translated without attribution. If you want to copy or translate from another Wikipedia project or article, you can, but please follow the steps in Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia.
It's very important that contributors understand and follow these practices, as policy requires that people who persistently do not must be blocked from editing. If you have any questions about this, you are welcome to leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. — Diannaa (talk) 02:01, 29 April 2016 (UTC)
