Speedy deletion nomination of Category:Cubital

A tag has been placed on Category:Cubital requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section C1 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the category has been empty for seven days or more and is not a disambiguation category, a category redirect, a featured topics category, under discussion at Categories for discussion, or a project category that by its nature may become empty on occasion.

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. Liz Read! Talk! 01:31, 6 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, Yoavd,
I deleted this category because it was empty. Should you feel a need for it in the future, do not hesitate to recreate it. Let me know if you have any questions. Liz Read! Talk! 01:36, 13 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

בקשה לעזרה

אני פונה אלייך כמפעיל מערכת בויקיפדיה העברית, הקמתי ערכים בויקיפדיה העברית וביצעתי עריכות מבוססות עם מקורות רלוונטיים, לא השחטתי אף פעם ואף מדי פעם קיבלתי הודעת תודה על תרומתי לויקיפדיה (אתה מוזמן אפילו להסתכל בערכים שהקמתי), העירו לי מספר הערות והשתדלתי להתחשב בהם או לפחות ברובם, כמו למשל שביקשו ממני להוסיף כיתוב לקישורים החיצוניים והתחלתי לעשות זאת,, יום אחד מפעיל מערכת ביקש ממני לא להקים יותר ערכים, למרות שלא הבנתי למה כיבדתי את הבקשה ולא הקמתי יותר ערכים אלא רק טיוטות, אך עם זאת הוא בכל זאת חסם את כתובת ה-IP שלי לזמן בלתי מוגבל.

קראתי את דף השיחה שלך. הפתרון הפשוט אם אתה לתרום, תירשם כמשתמש עם שם כלשהו, ותערוך עם שם המשתמש שלך. לא ברור למה אתה מעדיף לערוך ככתובת אי.פי. --Yoavd (talk) 10:49, 14 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
המשתמש שחסם אותי ייראה ערכים עם סגנון כתיבה שלי ועם נושאים שאני מתעניין בהם וכותב עליהם בויקיפדיה ואוטומטית יחסום אותי כמשתמש רשום.

.וגם אני חושב שהוא טרח לחסום את הכתובת שלי מיצירת חשבונות וכניסה לחשבונות.

אתה יכול להירשם כמשתמש בויקיפדיה האנגלית ולערוך מהיוזר הזה. תנסה. --Yoavd (talk) 03:33, 15 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
לא ניתן לבצע פעולה זו.

אני אודה לך מאוד אם תעזור לי?

אין לי דרך לעזור לך. מצטער. הרעיון היחיד שתפתח שם משתמש ממחשב אחר, ואז אולי תצליח לעבוד--Yoavd (talk) 12:29, 18 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
אתה מפעיל מערכת, איך אין לך דרך לעזור לי?
אתה יכול לפנות למפעיל שחסם אותך לצמיתות ולבקש לשחרר אותך--Yoavd (talk) 18:18, 18 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
ניסיתי פעמים רבות לפנות אליו והוא לא מעוניין לשמוע, יתרה מכך נגיד שהמשתמש שחסם אותי חושש שאעשה נזק לויקיפדיה ולכן חסם אותי, ביקשתי ממנו שיאפשר לי רק לכתוב טיוטה ושהעריכות שלי לא יהיו במרחב הערכים, אך גם את זה הוא לא הסכים, מה שמתנהל פה זה מאבק אגו ומטרתו היא להראות שהוא שולט

ביקשתי ממנו לשחרר אותך, אבל תשומת לב שאפילו בפניות אלי אתה לא פועל בצורה תקינה ולא חותם. אני מניח שדברים קטנים כאלו עצבנו את התו השמיני. --Yoavd (talk) 05:32, 19 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

לא חשבתי שהחתימה זה כל כך קריטי לדיון על הבקשה שלי פה, בכל מקרה מתנצל אם זה חשוב לך, מה שאתה אומר לי זה שביקשת מהתו השמיני לשחרר אותי והוא לא מעוניין לכבד את הבקשה שלך וכאן נגמר הדיון שלנו?

77.138.61.41

וקר טוב, יואב. אתה יכול לראות ביומן החסימות שלו כמה פעמים ניסינו לעבוד איתו ולא הצלחנו. לצערי, כל עוד הוא לא הוכיח לי שהוא חזר למוטב בדרכים המאוד-מסוימות שדיברנו עליהן - אני לא שש לשחרר אותו

זו התשובה שלו, ואני לא מתכוון לערער עליה. אני לא יודע מה סיכמתם, אבל כנראה שלא עמדת בהם. --Yoavd (talk) 18:51, 19 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

.זה חד משמעית לא נכון, עשיתי כל מה שאמרו לי לעשות.

?הוא גם רושם שכל עוד לא אוכיח שאחזור למוטב לא אשחרר, איך אוכיח אם אני חסום. 77.138.61.41

עכשיו ביום השואה יש הרבה עריכות בנושא השואה שהייתי רוצה לבצע, בנוסף עכשיו לאחרונה התו השמיני גם חסם אותי מלערוך את דף השיחה של עצמי, אני מתחנן תעשה משהו.

77.138.61.41

קרא את HE:שיחת_משתמש:התו_השמיני#משתמש:77.138.61.41 --Yoavd (talk) 12:34, 21 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
הוא טוען שמה שמתנהל עכשיו זה סתם טלפון שבור ושאני אחזור לדבר איתו בדף השיחה שלי,

פעמים בדף השיחה שלי שישחרר אותי והוא לא הסכים וזוהי הסיבה המרכזית שפניתי אליך, מה אני אמור לעשות? להמשיך להתחנן אליו? כפי שאמרתי ביקשתי ממנו הרבה 77.138.61.41

הוא כתב כפי שציינתי, הוא לא חסום מעריכה בדף השיחה שלו, שיפנה אליי שם. התו השמיני ♫ הבה נשוחח ♫ דיווח על טעויות 16:59, 21 באפריל 2020 (IDT) עשה בבקשה כהנחייתו--Yoavd (talk) 14:47, 21 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
בכל מקרה פניתי אלייך כי התו השמיני לא היה מוכן להקשיב לי וללכת לקראתי ובגלל זה פניתי אלייך, מה שאתה עושה עכשיו זה שאתה מחזיר אותי לנקודת ההתחלה.

77.138.61.41.

אחת משתיים - או שתכתו בתו השמיני בדף השיחה שלך אם הוא לא חסום, ואז תפסיק לכתוב לי, או שאם תגלה שדף השיחה לא חסום, תחזור אלי. אם לא תעשה שום דבר, אל תפנה אלי שוב. --Yoavd (talk) 17:59, 21 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
אני מקווה שזה לא מפריע לך שאני פונה אלייך אבל בכל מקרה רציתי ליידע אותך שהתו השמיני לא עונה לי בדף שיחה.

77.138.61.41. —Preceding undated comment added 09:37, 23 April 2020 (UTC) אז אתה לא מעוניין לעזור לי?, לא לפנות אלייך יותר? 77.138.61.41 —Preceding undated comment added 15:39, 24 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

יש לנו בעייה בהבנת הנקרא. דף השיחה שלך לא חסום,בדקתי. למה אתה לא פונה לתו השמיני בדף השיחה שלך כמו שביקשתי ממך. כנראה עשית משהו שמאוד עצבן אותו והוא חסם אותך לצמיתות. לחילופין אתה יכול לפנות לבירורים ולערער על חסימתו. בבקשה אל תכתוב לי יותר, עזרתי לך כמיטב יכולתי. זה לא שאני לא מעונין, עשיתי הכל ואתה לא עושה מה שמבקשים ממך. --Yoavd (talk) 05:20, 25 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
אין לי שום בעיה בהבנת הנקרא, הבנתי כבר שדף השיחה שלי כבר לא חסום, אבל כמו שכתבתי לך התו השמיני לא עונה לי, חוץ מזה שביקשתי הרבה פעמים לערער על החסימה והוא לא התייחס אליי.

Felix Dothan moved to draftspace

An article you recently created, Felix Dothan, does not have enough sources and citations as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. (?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of "Draft:" before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page.

Noam Manella moved to draftspace

An article you recently created, Noam Manella, is not suitable as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. (?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of "Draft:" before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page.

I wrote that it is the start of the article. I am going to add many citations and sources to the article, you could have waited a few days before moving it to the draftspace. I am a chess Grandmaster and wrote about 550 articles on chess in the Hebrew wikipedia. Anyway, I will notify you when my work is done, probably in a week or two.

Your draft article, Draft:Noam Manella

Hello, Yoavd. It has been over six months since you last edited the Articles for Creation submission or Draft page you started, "Noam Manella".

In accordance with our policy that Wikipedia is not for the indefinite hosting of material deemed unsuitable for the encyclopedia mainspace, the draft has been deleted. If you plan on working on it further and you wish to retrieve it, you can request its undeletion. An administrator will, in most cases, restore the submission so you can continue to work on it.

Thanks for your submission to Wikipedia, and happy editing. Liz Read! Talk! 17:11, 2 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
