  Hello, and thank you for your recent contribution. While the content of your edit may be true, I have removed it because its depth or nature of detail are not consistent with our objectives as an encyclopedia. I recognize that your edit was made in good faith and hope you will familiarize yourself with what Wikipedia is not so we may collaborate in the future. Thank you! lavender|(formerly HMSSolent)|lambast 00:30, 29 October 2015 (UTC)Reply

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited List of peckerwood gangs, you added links pointing to the disambiguation pages Latin Kings and Georgia. Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

  Hello, I'm Doc Strange. 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 Chester Bennington 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.

Prisonoffenders.com

Exactly how do you think this site passed WP:RS? Niteshift36 (talk) 16:53, 7 August 2017 (UTC)Reply

  • Let's start with the most obvious one, prisonoffenders.com. Where is the evidence of editorial oversight? Where is the reputation for fact checking? Do they accept user generated content? Where am I getting these questions.... from the policy on reliable sources. Have you read it? (no sarcasm needed). Once you understand the most obvious example, we can discuss the other one. Niteshift36 (talk) 04:17, 8 August 2017 (UTC)Reply
  • Ok. I just looks at the website and you know there other things that seems like they got right, but it does kinda looks like it was made by some white smartass, but yeah. Now I want to get the biggest question why leaving out the "ThoughtCo." page out, it got some reliable source, plus this is what is on the Aryan Brotherhood's page, well the article about them anyways. Ks159081 (talk) 10:54 10 August 2017 (UTC)
  • Unfortunately, what they get right or not right isn't the issue. The essay WP:TRUTH sort of explains it well. The ThoughtCo. one is when I look at the specific entry, it's written by some "contributor" that is a private investigator. There are good, legit reliable sources that give us info. If we can't find some rivalry documented in a reliable source, it probably isn't notable enough to include anyway. Infoboxes are supposed to be a snapshot of info, not an exhaustive listing. It should really only include major, notable rivalries and alliances. Niteshift36 (talk) 18:31, 11 August 2017 (UTC)Reply

Copying within Wikipedia requires attribution

edit

  Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you copied or moved text from List of most common surnames in Europe into List of common Spanish surnames. While you are welcome to re-use Wikipedia's content, here or elsewhere, Wikipedia's licensing does require that you provide attribution to the original contributor(s). When copying within Wikipedia, this is supplied at minimum in an edit summary at the page into which you've copied content, disclosing the copying and linking to the copied page, e.g., copied content from [[page name]]; see that page's history for attribution. It is good practice, especially if copying is extensive, to also place a properly formatted {{copied}} template on the talk pages of the source and destination. The attribution has been provided for this situation, but if you have copied material between pages before, even if it was a long time ago, please provide attribution for that duplication. You can read more about the procedure and the reasons at Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia. Thank you. If you are the sole author of the prose that was copied, attribution is not required. — Diannaa 🍁 (talk) 19:13, 10 April 2019 (UTC)Reply

Excessively long for the infobox

Those levels of details belong in the body of the text IMO. Generally we keep the infobox to a few key symptoms. Best Doc James (talk · contribs · email) 04:04, 17 May 2019 (UTC)Reply

Proposed deletion of Fourth-Degree relative

edit
 

The article Fourth-Degree relative has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Previously deleted as non-notable; still non-notable, and always going to be non-notable.

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.
