Benji Krol moved to draftspace

edit

Thanks for your contributions to Benji Krol. Unfortunately, it is not ready for publishing because it needs more sources to establish notability. Your article is now a draft where you can improve it undisturbed for a while.

Please see more information at Help:Unreviewed new page. When the article is ready for publication, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page. — Ingenuity (talk • contribs) 21:29, 5 February 2023 (UTC)Reply

Since this page is a biography of a living person, it needs inline citations. For a guide on how to add these, see referencing for beginners. Please keep in mind that to establish notability, at least three good sources -- not just their social media links -- are needed. — Ingenuity (talk • contribs) 21:32, 5 February 2023 (UTC)Reply

Word of advice

edit

Please don't ping me to say you agree with something, in the future. That red flag in the notification brings out the bull in me, anticipating a revert or argument. I'm glad to hear it, in the end, but I would have seen it soon enough anyway. InedibleHulk (talk) 04:00, 18 March 2023 (UTC)Reply

Sorry to see you were censored, new guy. On the bright side, you didn't really bring anything new to the table. The spirit of your opposition shall live on through those you've pung along the way! InedibleHulk (talk) 06:18, 18 March 2023 (UTC)Reply

Introduction to contentious topics

edit

You have recently been editing Eastern Europe or the Balkans, which has been designated a contentious topic. This standard message is designed as an introduction to contentious topics and does not imply that there are any issues with your editing.

A special set of rules applies to certain topic areas, which are referred to as contentious topics. These are specially-designated topics that tend to attract more persistent disruptive editing than the rest of the project and have been designated as contentious topics by the Arbitration Committee. When editing a contentious topic, Wikipedia’s norms and policies are more strictly enforced and Wikipedia administrators have special powers in order to reduce disruption to the project.

Within contentious topics, editors should edit carefully and constructively, refrain from disrupting the encyclopedia, and:

adhere to the purposes of Wikipedia;
comply with all applicable policies and guidelines;
follow editorial and behavioural best practice;
comply with any page restrictions in force within the area of conflict; and
refrain from gaming the system.

Editors are advised to err on the side of caution if unsure whether making a particular edit is consistent with these expectations. If you have any questions about contentious topics procedures you may ask them at the arbitration clerks' noticeboard or you may learn more about this contentious topic here. You may also choose to note which contentious topics you know about by using the {{Ctopics/aware}} template.

 This is a standard message to notify contributors about an administrative ruling in effect. It does not imply that there are any issues with your contributions to date.

You have shown interest in Russo-Ukrainian war. Due to past disruption in this topic area, the community has authorised uninvolved administrators to impose contentious topics restrictions—such as editing restrictions, bans, or blocks—on editors who do not strictly follow Wikipedia's policies, expected standards of behaviour, or the page-specific restrictions, when making edits related to the topic.

For additional information, please see the guidance on these sanctions. If you have any questions, or any doubts regarding what edits are appropriate, you are welcome to discuss them with me or any other editor.

  Hello, I'm Troutfarm27. I wanted to let you know that one or more of your recent contributions to Jacques Cartier have been undone because they did not appear constructive. If you would like to experiment, please use your sandbox. If you have any questions, you can ask for assistance at the Teahouse or the Help desk. Thanks.

  Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Wikipedia, as you did at Dufferin-Peel Catholic District School Board. Your edits appear to constitute vandalism and have been reverted. If you would like to experiment, please use your sandbox. Repeated vandalism may result in the loss of editing privileges. Thank you. PKT(alk) 18:36, 4 May 2023 (UTC)Reply

  Please stop. If you continue to vandalize Wikipedia, as you did at Jordan Poole, you may be blocked from editing. PKT(alk) 18:38, 4 May 2023 (UTC)Reply

  You may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you vandalize Wikipedia, as you did at Fresh Off the Boat. PKT(alk) 18:39, 4 May 2023 (UTC)Reply

 
You have been blocked indefinitely from editing for abuse of editing privileges.
If you think there are good reasons for being unblocked, please read the guide to appealing blocks, then add the following text at the bottom of your talk page: {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}}.  PhilKnight (talk) 18:46, 4 May 2023 (UTC)Reply

Your draft article, Draft:Benji Krol (2)

edit
 

Hello, Evan224. It has been over six months since you last edited the Articles for Creation submission or Draft page you started, "Benji Krol".

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. When 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! 21:34, 5 August 2023 (UTC)Reply
