Greensboro Massacre

Hello Totalibe. Thanks for your recent edit(s) to the above article. Participation by folks like yourself, and the active discourse that follows, makes for better articles. But your reasoning, in this case, is not supported by the facts nor by the consensus reached after lengthy discussions (which can find on the Talk page of the article). A judicial finding was rendered in which the named parties were found to be engaged in a form of mutual combat. Members of the Klan were found to be engaged in self defense, so that ALL parties were found to be assailants in a court of law. Those are the facts that you continue to try to revert, so I would kindly ask you to stop that activity. I hope this small set-back doesn't prevent you from continuing your contributions to Wikipedia. Gulbenk (talk) 00:03, 18 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Flag of Bikini Atoll, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Flags of the World. Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)

Vandalism report

Your submission at Articles for creation: Missed messages. (July 22)

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed. Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reason left by Zxcvbnm was:
This draft's references do not show that the subject qualifies for a Wikipedia article. In summary, the draft needs multiple published sources that are:
Make sure you add references that meet these criteria before resubmitting. Learn about mistakes to avoid when addressing this issue. If no additional references exist, the subject is not suitable for Wikipedia.
 The comment the reviewer left was:
The game got some pretty solid mentions from Verge and Rock Paper Shotgun, but I think it falls just short of notability. Most sources used appear unreliable.
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 after they have been resolved.

Hello!

Hey there - I saw your edit on Viossa, (thanks for that), and decided to check your out; your userpage gave me a good laugh! Unfortunately, we both share in the chronic condition of being British haha. I though I should send you a message for a couple of reasons: firstly, to welcome you to active editing (well done on the DYK), and also to invite you to WikiProject Constructed languages, since you're also a clong-enthusiast :D

"To be blunt this comes across as a tit-for-tat nomination"

You said this in response to a remove of a British/Scottish politician I proposed, and I'm really bothered that you of all people would be assuming I act in bad faith. Why are people making such nefarious assumptions about me like that? pbp 00:45, 30 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

@Purplebackpack89 I probably shouldn't have phrased it like that but the nomination did come off as overly reactive. I didn't really mean to insinuate anything and I am sorry for phrasing it like that. Totalibe (talk) 10:29, 3 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Anarchism

Hi Iostn,

I saw your work on articles related to anarchism and wanted to say hello, as I work in the topic area too. If you haven't already, you might want to watch our noticeboard for Wikipedia's coverage of anarchism, which is a great place to ask questions, collaborate, discuss style/structure precedent, and stay informed about content related to anarchism. Take a look for yourself! We also have a stub (short article) expansion drive, if you'd like to participate.

Feel free to say hi on my talk page and let me know if these links were helpful (or at least interesting). Hope to see you around. czar 14:41, 8 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you, I intend on publishing Draft:Omar Aziz (anarchist) soon Iostn (talk) 17:52, 8 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy deletion nomination of Trans Safety Network

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 Trans Safety Network requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G4 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page appears to be a repost of material that was previously deleted following a deletion discussion, at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Trans Safety Network. When a page has substantially identical content to that of a page deleted after a discussion, and any changes in the content do not address the reasons for which the material was previously deleted, it may be deleted at any time.

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 "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 deleted 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, then please contact the deleting administrator, or if you have already done so, you can place a request here.

Speedy deletion nomination of File:Common logo occur big.png

A tag has been placed on File:Common logo occur big.png requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia.
