  Hello, I'm Zackmann08. Thank you for your recent contributions to Bancor protocol. I noticed that when you added the image to the infobox, you added it as a thumbnail. In the future, please do not use thumbnails when adding images to an infobox (see WP:INFOBOXIMAGE). What does this mean? Well in the infobox, when you specify the image you wish to use, instead of doing it like this:

|image=[[File:SomeImage.jpg|thumb|Some image caption]]

Instead just supply the name of the image. So in this case you can simply do:

|image=SomeImage.jpg.

There will then be a separate parameter for the image caption such as |caption=Some image caption. Please note that this is a generic form message I am leaving on your page because you recently added a thumbnail to an infobox. The specific parameters for the image and caption may be different for the infobox you are using! Please consult the Template page for the infobox being used to see better documentation. Thanks!

Timebinding

edit

To fix 'timebinding', we indeed change phrases like "currently" and "recently" (i.e., relative terms) to "as of 2014", etc (i.e., absolute terms).

As for "sources with uta", I'm not 100% clear what you're asking. Stripping out UTM tags? DS (talk) 18:57, 23 September 2018 (UTC)Reply

Solve.Care, Bancor protocol

Please read this notification carefully, it contains important information about an administrative situation on Wikipedia. It does not imply any misconduct regarding your own contributions to date.

A community decision has authorised the use of general sanctions for pages related to the blockchain and cryptocurrencies. The details of these sanctions are described here. All pages that are broadly related to these topics are subject to a one revert per twenty-four hours restriction, as described here.

General sanctions is a system of conduct regulation designed to minimise disruption in controversial topic areas. This means uninvolved administrators can impose sanctions for edits relating to these topics that do not adhere to the purpose of Wikipedia, our standards of behaviour, or relevant policies. Administrators may impose sanctions such as editing restrictions, bans, or blocks. An editor can only be sanctioned after he or she has been made aware that general sanctions are in effect. This notification is meant to inform you that sanctions are authorised in these topic areas, which you have been editing. It is only effective if it is logged here. Before continuing to edit pages in these topic areas, please familiarise yourself with the general sanctions system. Don't hesitate to contact me or another editor if you have any questions.

Bancor protocol moved to draftspace

edit

An article you recently created, Bancor protocol, does not have enough high-quality 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).

Also, please take some time to review Wikipedia's guidelines on tone and neutrality. The only reliable source (that's not written by a "contributor") in the references is the Wall Street Journal article, and it's quite critical of Bancor. Wikipedia is not a vehicle for promotion, and it's not appropriate to cite that article while completely disregarding its point of view.

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, tone, and neutrality guidelines, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page. Thanks! — Newslinger talk 08:00, 9 October 2018 (UTC)Reply

Orphaned non-free image File:Bancor-logo-blue.png

edit
 

Thanks for uploading File:Bancor-logo-blue.png. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described in section F5 of the criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. --B-bot (talk) 17:27, 10 October 2018 (UTC)Reply

Proposed deletion of Solve.Care

edit
 

The article Solve.Care has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

No reliable sources re: solve.care; the one RS is a previous bio detail about the founder. No evidence of notability.

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.

Your draft article, Draft:Bancor protocol

edit
 

Hello, Archersbobsburgers. It has been over six months since you last edited the Articles for Creation submission or Draft page you started, "Bancor protocol".

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 nominated for deletion. If you plan on working on it further, or editing it to address the issues raised if it was declined, simply edit the submission and remove the {{db-afc}}, {{db-draft}}, or {{db-g13}} code.

If your submission has already been deleted by the time you get there, and you wish to retrieve it, you can request its undeletion by following the instructions at this link. An administrator will, in most cases, restore the submission so you can continue to work on it.

Thank you for your submission to Wikipedia! — MRD2014 (talk) 00:52, 7 October 2019 (UTC)Reply
