Welcome

Hi, Lackett. This is NOT some automated message...it's from a real person. You can talk to me right now. Welcome to Wikipedia! I noticed you've just joined, and wanted to give you a few tips to get you started. If you have any questions, please talk to us. The tips below should help you to get started. Best of luck!  Chzz  ►  05:20, 27 April 2009 (UTC)

ようこそ You don't need to read anything - anybody can edit; just go to an article and edit it. Be Bold, but please don't put silly stuff in - it will be removed very quickly, and will annoy people. Ask for help. Talk to us live, or edit this page, put {{helpme}} and describe what help you need. Someone will reply very quickly - usually within a few minutes. Play in your user area. For example, create User:Lackett/test. Edit existing articles, before you make your own. Look at some subjects that you know about, and see if you can make them a bit better. For example, Wikipedia:Cleanup#2009. When you're ready, read about Your first article. It should be about something well-known, and it will need references. Good luck with editing; please drop me a line some time on my own talk page. There's lots of information below. Once again, welcome to the fantastic world of Wikipedia! --  Chzz  ►  05:20, 27 April 2009 (UTC) Getting started A tutorial • Our five pillars • Getting mentored How to: edit a page • upload and use images Frequently asked questions • Tips Where to ask questions or make comments Request administrator attention Policies and guidelines Neutral point of view • No original research Verifiability • Grade sources • Cite sources What Wikipedia is not • Biographies of living persons External links • Spam • Vandalism Deletion policy • Conflict of interest • Notability The community Signpost • IRC channels • Mailing lists • Best articles Build consensus • Resolve disputes Assume good faith • Civility • Etiquette No personal attacks • No legal threats Writing articles Be bold in editing • Develop an article The perfect article • Manual of style Pages needing attention • Peer review The missing manual

Changing of redirects…

I noticed in several of your recent edits (example1, example2) that you have been changing valid redirect links in articles into piped links. Since you seem to be a new editor, I'd like to ask you to read the section "Do not "fix" links to redirects that are not broken" at Wikipedia:Redirect. It basically says that if a redirect is working (as was the case with the two examples I linked) you shouldn't change the link for a variety of reasons enumerated on that page. I just wanted to bring your attention to that guideline. Anyway, welcome to Wikipedia! And good luck with your future editing. — Bellhalla (talk) 17:57, 7 May 2009 (UTC)

Temporarily blocked

Please slow down. Per the AWB rules, "Don't edit too quickly; consider opening a bot account if you are regularly making more than a few edits a minute.". Nakon 04:06, 31 May 2009 (UTC)

I have now removed your access to AWB for continuing to edit at too high a rate. Nakon 04:25, 31 May 2009 (UTC)

Blocked

It has become apparent that you are not going to slow down despite two previous warning blocks. I have blocked you for two weeks. Nakon 16:50, 31 May 2009 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of I'm Still Fly

A tag has been placed on I'm Still Fly requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A9 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a musical recording which does not indicate why its subject is important or significant, and where the artist's article has never existed, has been deleted or is eligible for deletion itself. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, as well as our subject-specific notability guideline for music.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the page does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that they userfy the page or have a copy emailed to you. Lәo_(βǃʘʘɱ) 00:41, 15 June 2009 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of Good In The Hood

The article Good In The Hood has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Unreferenced BLPs

Hello Lackett! Thank you for your contributions. I am a bot alerting you that 1 of the articles that you created is tagged as an Unreferenced Biography of a Living Person. The biographies of living persons policy requires that all personal or potentially controversial information be sourced. In addition, to ensure verifiability, all biographies should be based on reliable sources. If you were to bring this article up to standards, it would greatly help us with the current 427 article backlog. Once the article is adequately referenced, please remove the {{unreferencedBLP}} tag. Here is the article:

1. Ramón Guevara - Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL
