Hi, Philipnelson99/Archives/2019/March! Thank you for your contributions to articles related to free and open-source software. I'd like to invite you to become a part of the free and open-source software task force, a project aimed at improving the quality of articles about free and open-source software on Wikipedia.
The WMF has announced that Google Translate is now available for translating articles through the content translation tool. This may result in an increase in machine translated articles in the New Pages Feed. Feel free to use the {{rough translation}} tag and gently remind (or inform) editors that translations from other language Wikipedia pages still require attribution per WP:TFOLWP.
Discussions of interest
Two elements of CSD G6 have been split into their own criteria: R4 for redirects in the "File:" namespace with the same name as a file or redirect at Wikimedia Commons (Discussion), and G14 for disambiguation pages which disambiguate zero pages, or have "(disambiguation)" in the title but disambiguate a single page (Discussion).
NPR is not a binary keep / delete process. In many cases a redirect may be appropriate. The deletion policy and its associated guideline clearly emphasise that not all unsuitable articles must be deleted. Redirects are not contentious. See a classic example of the templates to use. More templates are listed at the R template index. Reviewers who are not aware, do please take this into consideration before PROD, CSD, and especially AfD because not even all admins are aware of such policies, and many NAC do not have a full knowledge of them.
NPP Tools Report
Superlinks – allows you to check an article's history, logs, talk page, NPP flowchart (on unpatrolled pages) and more without navigating away from the article itself.
copyvio-check – automatically checks the copyvio percentage of new pages in the background and displays this info with a link to the report in the 'info' panel of the Page curation toolbar.
Six Month Queue Data: Today – Low – 2393 High – 4828 Looking for inspiration? There are approximately 1000 female biographies to review.

I want to add more information to the Wiki page of Sandeep Naik. Please guide why the changes I made have been removed.KausPatil (talk) 08:42, 26 March 2019 (UTC)
@KausPatil: Hello, I'm Philipnelson99. I wanted to let you know that I removed one or more external links you added to the main body of an article. Generally, any relevant external links should be listed in an "External links" section at the end of the article and meet the external links guidelines. Links within the body of an article should be internal Wikilinks. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you.
Hello, I'm The Pornstar Epidemic. I noticed that you recently removed all content from a page, Blacked, and redirected it to another article. Please do not do this. Blank pages are harmful to Wikipedia because they have a tendency to confuse readers. As a rule, if you discover a duplicate article, please redirect it to an appropriate existing page. If a page has been vandalised, please revert it to the last legitimate version. If you feel that the content of a page is inappropriate, please edit the page and replace it with appropriate content. If you believe there is no hope for the page, please see the deletion policy for how to proceed. If this was a mistake, don't worry; the removed content has been restored. If you wish to experiment, please use the sandbox. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks.

You added external links in the body of the article, and this is against Wikipedia policy. Furthermore, you should open a discussion on the article's talk page or possibly create a new article instead of editing the redirect. ~ Philipnelson99 (talk) 09:09, 26 March 2019 (UTC)
Look, Philip Nelson, you think you are so good because you are white. I tell you something. You are equal to everyone else. Stop being a racist. You are from South Carolina, that place is full of the worst kinds of people. I bet you endorse slavery. The end of the United Kingdom (talk) 13:46, 26 March 2019 (UTC)
Thanks for your note. I whole heartedly agree with your comment and didn't expect my change to last. However, I do suspect that I am correct and am excited beyond belief about the possibility this being the actual truth. Please pardon my nerdgasm. In the future, I'll express my enthusiasm in a more appropriate venue. Your pal, Erin — Preceding unsigned comment added by 174.141.204.89 (talk) 16:54, 29 March 2019 (UTC)
