Your additions of images to List of cruise ships are much appreciated. If you are planning to make further additions, please ensure the ships names are in italics. Thanks. - Davidships (talk) 12:01, 17 May 2024 (UTC)Reply

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Galle Marvels, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Fast. Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)

It's OK to remove this message. Also, to stop receiving these messages, follow these opt-out instructions. Thanks, --DPL bot (talk) 17:57, 21 May 2024 (UTC)Reply

  Hello. This is a message to let you know that one or more of your recent contributions, such as the edit(s) you made to 2024 ICC Men's T20 World Cup, did not appear to be constructive and have been reverted. Please take some time to familiarise yourself with our policies and guidelines. You can find information about these at our welcome page which also provides further information about contributing constructively to this encyclopedia. If you only meant to make test edits, please use your sandbox for that. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you may leave a message on my talk page. Thank you.

(talk page watcher) How come? flags should be displayed in the broadcasters section for relevant countries; what's wrong with that? Vestrian24Bio (TALK) 16:36, 18 June 2024 (UTC)Reply

Afghanistan

edit

In cricket, the old Afghan flag is used instead of Taliban-sanctioned new political Afghan flag. Hope you saw this during the T20 world cup. Use Template:CR to avoid confusion. Thanks, Chanaka L (talk) 03:33, 2 July 2024 (UTC)Reply

edit

  Please do not add or change content, as you did at 2024 Lanka Premier League, without citing a reliable source. Please review the guidelines at Wikipedia:Citing sources and take this opportunity to add references to the article. None of that marketing table is sourced by inline sources, so it is deletable as per WP:VERIFY. Also, clear breach of WP:NOTADVERTISING in my opinion too Joseph2302 (talk) 14:51, 9 July 2024 (UTC)Reply

@Joseph2302
The official social media pages of the Lanka Premier League have posted about their sponsors in the 2024 season. Can I post this edit citing that? Janeesh 22 15:12, 9 July 2024 (UTC)Reply
(talk page watcher): Usually sponsors aren't listed; not even for ICC World Cups even though they have sources, because it does not adds any encyclopedic value to the article. They are just WP:NOTADVERTISING. Vestrian24Bio (TALK) 17:03, 9 July 2024 (UTC)Reply

Proposed deletion of Vega Innovations

edit
 

The article Vega Innovations has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Fails WP:NCOMPANY, lacks any sources or references.

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.

  Hello, I'm Wikishovel. Wikipedia is written by people who have a wide diversity of opinions, but we try hard to make sure articles have a neutral point of view. Your recent edit to Vega Innovations seemed less than neutral and has been removed. If you think this was a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. Wikishovel (talk) 17:12, 27 August 2024 (UTC)Reply

Speedy deletion nomination of List of SriLankan Airlines destinations

edit
 

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.

You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on List of SriLankan Airlines destinations requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G4 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page appears to be a repost of material that was previously deleted following a deletion discussion, at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of SriLankan Airlines destinations. When a page has substantially identical content to that of a page deleted after a discussion, and any changes in the content do not address the reasons for which the material was previously deleted, it may be deleted at any time.

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. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator, or if you have already done so, you can place a request here.

List of SriLankan Airlines destinations moved to draftspace

edit

Thanks for your contributions to List of SriLankan Airlines destinations. Unfortunately, I do not think it is ready for publishing at this time because it has no sources and it was previously deleted, it needs to be developed to show that it is substantially different from Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of SriLankan Airlines destinations . I have converted your article to a draft which you can improve, 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 OR move the page back. Bobby Cohn (talk) 15:22, 6 September 2024 (UTC)Reply

Janith Kashan moved to draftspace

Thanks for your contributions to Janith Kashan. Unfortunately, I do not think it is ready for publishing at this time because it has no sources and it needs more sources to establish notability. I have converted your article to a draft which you can improve, undisturbed for a while.

Deletion discussion about Janith Kashan

edit

Hello Janeesh 22, and thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia.

While your contributions are appreciated, I wanted to let you know that I've started a discussion about whether an article that you created, Janith Kashan, should be deleted, as I am not sure that it is suitable for inclusion in Wikipedia in its current form. Your comments are welcome at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Janith Kashan.

Deletion discussions usually run for seven days and are not votes. Our guide about effectively contributing to such discussions is worth a read. The most common issue in these discussions is notability, but it's not the only aspect that may be discussed; read the nomination and any other comments carefully before you contribute to the discussion. Last but not least, you are highly encouraged to continue improving the article; just be sure not to remove the tag about the deletion nomination from the top.

If you have any questions, please leave a comment here and prepend it with {{Re|Cabrils}}. And don't forget to sign your reply with ~~~~ . Thanks!

Empty edit summary

edit

Hello, it would be extremely helpful if you could kindly leave an edit summary when making changes to articles. I have noticed that you often do not include one. Providing an edit summary allows other editors to use their time more productively, instead of having to scrutinise and verify edits unnecessarily. Even a brief summary is better than none, and they are particularly important for large, complex, or potentially controversial edits. Thank you! QEnigma (talk) 11:31, 27 September 2024 (UTC)Reply

Speedy deletion nomination of List of Lanka Premier League (LPL) records and statistics

edit

Hello Janeesh 22,

I wanted to let you know that I just tagged List of Lanka Premier League (LPL) records and statistics for deletion, because it's a redirect from an article title to a namespace that's not for articles.

If you don't want List of Lanka Premier League (LPL) records and statistics to be deleted, you can contest this deletion, but don't remove the speedy deletion tag from the top.

You can leave a note on my talk page if you have questions. Thanks!

  Hello, I'm Cooldudeseven7. I noticed that you recently removed content from Lanka Premier League without adequately explaining why. In the future, it would be helpful to others if you described your changes to Wikipedia with an accurate edit summary. If this was a mistake, don't worry; the removed content has been restored. If you would like to experiment, please use your sandbox. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks.

Speedy deletion nomination of List of Lanka Premier League (LPL) records and statistics

edit

Hello, Janeesh 22,

Welcome to Wikipedia! I edit here too, under the username MPGuy2824 and I thank you for your contributions.

I wanted to let you know, however, that I have tagged an article that you started, List of Lanka Premier League (LPL) records and statistics, for deletion, because a consensus decision previously decided that it wasn't suitable for inclusion in the encyclopedia. If you wish to restore a page deleted via a deletion discussion, please use the deletion review process instead, rather than reposting the content of the page.

If you feel that the article shouldn't be deleted and want more time to work on it, you can contest this deletion but please don't remove the speedy deletion tag from the top. If the page is already deleted by the time you come across this message and you wish to retrieve the deleted material, please contact the deleting administrator.

For any further query, please leave a comment here and prepend it with {{Re|MPGuy2824}}. And, don't forget to sign your reply with ~~~~ . Thanks!

Edit made to 17th Parliament of Sri Lanka

edit

@Janeesh 22: Hello, thank you for your edit to the 17th Parliament of Sri Lanka article. It would be greatly appreciated if you could include appropriate references with your edits to maintain the article's integrity. At the top of the particular subsection (List), there is a grouping of sources that detail and corroborate each step of the confirmation process for elected and nominated members. Ideally, this grouping should have been updated alongside your edit.

Furthermore, your entry would have been better placed in the first row of the five rows reserved for the SJB and their national list nominees, rather than at the bottom of the list. This placement or these nature of entries creates confusion and gives the impression of editing without careful consideration. Additionally, it results in more work for other editors to correct and complete your work. QEnigma (talk) 15:50, 19 November 2024 (UTC)Reply
