  Hello, I'm SunDawn. I wanted to let you know that I reverted one of your recent contributions—specifically this edit to Wikipedia:FAQ/Article subjects—because it did not appear constructive. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. If you have any questions, you can ask for assistance at the Teahouse or the Help desk. Thanks. ✠ SunDawn ✠ (contact) 14:09, 13 November 2024 (UTC)Reply

I know, I thought that was missing, so I mistakenly added that. Sorry for that edit and thanks for your revert. Gnu779 (talk) 14:12, 13 November 2024 (UTC)Reply

Stub templates

edit

Heya! I saw you created {{LXDE-stub}}. Stub templates are only created after the procedure at WP:NEWSTUB, which generally requires 60 articles ready to be tagged with the new stub type. Would you be able to tag it WP:G7 speedy deletion? You can do so by adding {{db-g7}} to the top of the article.

Please do not be discouraged; this is a pretty obscure area of Wikipedia procedure. If this is the worst mistake you make, you will have a great Wikipedia career :)

I never found any article which is an LXDE related stub, but in the future that might be useful. But I'm not sure, and sorry if I did something wrong. I always try to expand Wikipedia, but I'm not a vandal. Gnu779 (talk) 12:36, 25 November 2024 (UTC)Reply
I definitely do not think you are a vandal. We generally like to write articles before we make supporting infrastructure, and in the case of stub templates we like to see 60 different articles which can go into the stub category. Would you be able to add {{db-g7}} to the top of Template:LXDE-stub? That will request an admin delete it. Or, alternatively, we can move it to your userspace, to somewhere like User:Gnu779/LXDE stub. That way, once we have 60 articles which can use the stub type, we can reactivate it.
