Your signature
editHello, I dream of horses! I want to ask about your signature. It seems you have it in a way where it has a "please ping me" message, but the message only shows up when you post on others' talk pages. A while back, I added a similar "please ping me" message to mine, but it appeared everywhere, and I had to get rid of it because it was too long. I tried to copy the markup from User:I dream of horses/sig.css, but it didn't work, as I had to change the markup, since my sig is a bit different from yours, and I couldn't get the markup right. Could you tell me what markup I should use for a "please ping me" message that only appears on others' talk pages? Thanks in advance. Linguist 111talk 17:02, 13 July 2016 (UTC)
- @Linguist111: Lady Aleena, and somebody else who's username I have unfortunately forgotten, have programmed it to do that. I think LA will be able to help out, whenever she comes around, since I've looked it over a couple times and can't seem remember what part makes it so it doesn't show up on my own talk page. However, I think it has to do with this part: <span style="border:1px solid #ffa500;background:#f3dddd;"> [[User:I dream of horses|I dream of horses]] </span><includeonly>{{subst:</includeonly>#ifexpr: {{<includeonly>subst:</includeonly>NAMESPACENUMBER}}mod2| {{<includeonly>subst:</includeonly>#ifeq:{{<includeonly>subst:</includeonly>FULLPAGENAME}}|User talk:I dream of horses -- I dream of horses (My talk page) (My edits) @ 23:52, 13 July 2016 (UTC)

A message from 203.106.157.148
editFrom the information given in your message, I would like to know what happens when a person who do not have an account in wikipedia submits his/her new page of articles for review? 203.106.157.148 (talk) 02:54, 12 July 2016 (UTC)
- You'd go through articles for creation, and will be informed on your talk page whether or not it's accepted. -- I dream of horses (My talk page) (My edits) @ 23:47, 13 July 2016 (UTC)
Now, I am confused. From your earlier message, the info says that those with account in wikipedia have the additional privilege of creating new page. But your reply to my query seems to imply those without account can also create new pages. So, please clarify. Thanks. :)
203.106.157.148 (talk) 00:25, 14 July 2016 (UTC)
- People with accounts can directly upload their articles without going through articles for creation. People without them, however, need to create a draft through articles for creation so someone can approve it. I dream of horses (My talk page) (My edits) @ 04:12, 14 July 2016 (UTC)
Ok. Thanks for the clarification. :)

Could you please reconsider the deletion of the information I have worked on. There is no copyright infringement - 100%! If so copied sth its the other who did that. The information I have posted is my unique text which might have been used by others. Furthermore the information is unbiased - you can look anything up in the internet - it is all true.
Looking forward hearing from you.
Thank you.

Phillipp Steinhart
editHi, could you please stop putting errors in the Phillipp Steinhart article? You were "correcting" 1860's to 1860s [1] and I reverted this edit on the same day telling you in the edit comment that "1860" is a short name for the club, not a decade, hence the apostrophe is correct. Today you "corrected" it again: [2] Could you please be more careful with your edits? --Jaellee (talk) 10:17, 14 July 2016 (UTC)
- @Jaellee: Yikes, sorry about that. You might want to put it within a {{sic}} template, since it may continue to get "corrected" otherwise by other people and bots. There's even an option to hide it when you are reading the article (instead of editing it). I dream of horses (My talk page) (My edits) @ 01:53, 15 July 2016 (UTC)
- Thanks, I will keep the trick with the {{sic}} template in mind and use it if this problem appears in another article. --Jaellee (talk) 14:57, 15 July 2016 (UTC)
David E. Pulver
editDear i dream of horses, my brother in law david pulver is an upholster from santa barbara, i wanted to make a suprise for him in wikipedia since he is a good upholster. — Preceding unsigned comment added by ZZduke (talk • contribs) 20:13, 16 July 2016 (UTC)
- @ZZduke: Let me just get this out of the way. There's a small chance that an upholster would qualify for an article on Wikipedia...but it's very small.
- Also, if you strongly like or dislike someone or something, or could stand to gain or lose something by editing certain articles, you should read over our conflict of interest policies to see if you should edit or create articles about the subjects. -- I dream of horses (My talk page) (My edits) @ 20:24, 16 July 2016 (UTC)
Changes in pfk cska sofia
editHi, I noticed you reveted my corrections in the article for pfc cska sofia. Actually there is a misinterpretation of the ongoing events related to the club. The club has filed for banckrupcy and in several monthsit will no loger exist. As a consequence it has not been allowed to take part in any football competition whatsoever. In this regard it is highly incorrect to put a section "Players" where the names of the current squad are enlisted, or "coach". There is another completely different club which took the name of cska sofia which in no occasion could be taken as an heritier of pfc cska sofia because it is an entirely different judicial entity, and was another football club (litex lovetch) with its own history. I kindly invite you to take account of the aforementioned and to help pricise the content of the article if a highest degree of precison and accurancy is to be achieved, as the standards of wikipedia evoque.
Thank you for your attention! Nomerbis (talk) 20:33, 16 July 2016 (UTC)
- @Nomerbis: Please briefly explain this in an edit summary next time. -- I dream of horses (My talk page) (My edits) @ 20:35, 16 July 2016 (UTC)
Sorry for the inconvinience. It is my first contribution to wikipedia ever! Nomerbis (talk) 20:45, 16 July 2016 (UTC)

A message from SingaporeXplorer
editSingaporeXplorer (talk) 09:52, 17 July 2016 (UTC) Hi there :) I'm relatively new to wikipedia, and had been trying to explore around with possible contributions to wikipedia. I was thinking of updating a page for a particular biography of a person under the "Peranakan" page. However, I realised that there were already two posts, which were previous being deleted by Ohnoitsjamie & Vegaswikian. Please do let me know if there is a way for me to read the previous posts, which were being deleted, so that I may further update it with relevant information. Thank you :)
- @SingaporeXplorer: The way to do it is to contact Ohnoitsjamie and/or Vegaswikian yourself. Because I've linked to their names (notifying them by doing so), they might come by here or on your own talk page to talk with you, anyways. I dream of horses (My talk page) (My edits) @ 21:55, 17 July 2016 (UTC)
- I'll save you the trouble. The article about Wong was deleted because the subject did not come close to meeting our WP:BIO notability guidelines. All of your questions should be addressed in that policy link. OhNoitsJamie Talk 22:04, 17 July 2016 (UTC)

A message from DeyoGlines
editHi, a few weeks back we exchanged hellos when I started my first ever article. Would it be out of line to talk about why I've been rejected with you? I have read the links the the person said were the reasons for rejection but I'd love to have a friend out here that could make it plain. my article is here Draft:Ethan_Chorin I hope to hear from you, but I understand if you are to busy to respond.
All the best~ Deyo DeyoGlines (talk) 16:04, 20 July 2016 (UTC)
- @DeyoGlines: Actually, Tseung Kwan O and LaMona were the ones who rejected your draft, not me. Perhaps you should talk to them. -- I dream of horses (My talk page) (My edits) @ 02:20, 21 July 2016 (UTC)
- Hi, DeyoGlines. I'm looking at the article. Come to my talk page and I'll tell you what I think you can do. LaMona (talk) 04:27, 21 July 2016 (UTC)
- Thank you I dream of horses, I knew you were not one of the reviewers but I was just reaching out to see if you had any advice. And LaMona I have visited you page, thank you for your advice! DeyoGlines (talk) 17:27, 21 July 2016 (UTC)

Concerns and controversies at the 2016 Summer Olympics
editThis article, Concerns and controversies at the 2016 Summer Olympics, created by user Chronus, is what you can expect from him by now. This guy is communist and, at Wiki-PT (portuguese), he acts like a dictator and he is destroying it by political use and abuse. You, from Wiki-EN, need to stop him now, or he will keep doing this forever. He is Brazilian, but he is trying to attack Brazil because Dilma Rousseff suffered impeachment. In his mind, Olmpics are a "rich man's thing" and the brazilian money should be spend only in hospitals, schools and slums. At Wiki-PT he is a naturally angry person, dominates the articles don't letting anybody edit, don't let anybody touch his "precious leftwing contributions". He don't have any mental contidion to edit. He will full the wiki-en with "controversial articles against right-wing things", like he did in Wiki-PT, and never, ever, putting any line against leftwing things. PLEASE DON'T LET THIS DICTATOR FREE. 177.142.86.178 (talk) 08:03, 27 July 2016 (UTC)
- I'm not sure if I can help with this at all. However, it appears that other editors have attempted to make the article more neutral, and you should do the same. -- I dream of horses (My talk page) (My edits) @ 08:31, 27 July 2016 (UTC)
- The problem is that the user, because of the power he has in Wiki-PT, think he can do it anywhere. He will not stop until someone completely blocked him, his problem is behavioral. He will start creating these partial articles of "controversy" all the time. He has also entered left-politicism in some other articles such as Brazil. 177.142.86.178 (talk) 08:57, 27 July 2016 (UTC)
- I can't block users, as I'm not an admin (per my edit notice, above), nor can anyone really block anyone else in situations like this very quickly. I dream of horses (My talk page) (My edits) @ 08:59, 27 July 2016 (UTC)
- I know. I confess I'm feeling tired of this person, I flee from Wiki-en because it is unbearable to hold that spot with this guy stepping on everyone there, along with a clique of mad dictators who took over the space. Now this guy will try to gain power here, pretending to be honest editor, to get management positions and try to influence the whole world, as it did there. This guy is a cancer in the form of people. And I don't know how to proceed with the bureaucracy here, I can't write in fluent English. Please, don't let this asshole win again. 177.142.86.178 (talk) 09:05, 27 July 2016 (UTC)
- Well, if the content is as non-neutral as you say it is, and if this editor is as non-civil as you say he is, it will eventually go up to the arbitration committee without you having to do much. -- I dream of horses (My talk page) (My edits) @ 09:07, 27 July 2016 (UTC)
- Yes, it will certainly happen. I would like to ask if this article can't be deleted, he is completely partial creating an article just with "controversies", the article will be an "attack article" by nature. This is one of his plans in Wiki to create "official partialism". 177.142.86.178 (talk) 09:13, 27 July 2016 (UTC)
