Heading levels

edit

Hello Ljccrim, I previously corrected your use of heading levels at Draft:Father absence (see my edit summary and MOS:HEAD for an explanation of the problem) but you wiped out those changes with this edit, presumably because you pasted across the draft from this page. Please check the page history for any intervening edits that need to be preserved before pasting something back on to a page.

Sorry, I wasn't aware of your edit. Thank you. Ljccrim (talk) 18:55, 29 February 2016 (UTC)Reply

I don't understand why you want to draft on both your talk page and on the draft page. First of all, it causes confusion by having two drafts that may get out of step (actually you now have four drafts, there are others at User:Ljccrim/sandbox and User talk:Ljccrim/sandbox). Also, it makes it difficult to communicate with you. Talk pages are meant for discussion between Wikipedians, not for drafting articles. SpinningSpark 18:09, 29 February 2016 (UTC)Reply

I only made several copies of my sandbox entry because I wasn't sure which page my course leader will visit. I was told in class to write my outline on the new article talk page, but it was almost instantaneously moved to a draft talk page. Apart from that, I thought my sandbox and my user page shared the same talk page, as the tabs on the left are the same. I have just now removed the draft from my user talk page.

Comments on your talk page

edit

Another issue that has been caused by drafting on this page is that messages that other editors have posted to you have been either accidentally or deliberately deleted. While it is not forbidden to delete messages off your talk page, we do not encourage that. Most people move old messages to an archive page if the page gets too long rather than deleting them.

You nominated a speedy deletion. The page in question has already been deleted and I did not object to your nomination. The message literally does not concern anything anymore. Ljccrim (talk) 18:50, 29 February 2016 (UTC)Reply

Actually, I didn't nominate it for speedy deletion, nor did I actually delete it. Rather, I rescued it from deletion by moving the draft from the talk page on to the article page. It was subsequently moved to draft space by another editor. Nothing has actually been deleted.
Anyway, that is not the problem, it is this page, the page we are writing on right now, that I am talking about. The problem is that drafing on talk pages, whether article or user talk pages, interferes with the normal functioning of talk pages. That is not the way we do things here, but thanks for removing the draft from this page just now. SpinningSpark 19:34, 29 February 2016 (UTC)Reply

Hair (wisely series) moved to draftspace

edit

An article you recently created, Hair (wisely series), does not have enough sources and citations as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. (?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of "Draft:" before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please follow the prompts on the Articles for Creation template atop the page. ... discospinster talk 20:16, 20 May 2019 (UTC)Reply

Thank you for that. It has been a very long time since I last created a page. I have just added a few citations to the draft and am currently in the process of verifying other sources. Cheers. Ljccrim (talk) 07:16, 21 May 2019 (UTC)Reply

Hi there, I'm HasteurBot. I just wanted to let you know that Draft:Hair (wisely series), a page you created, has not been edited in 5 months. The Articles for Creation space is not an indefinite storage location for content that is not appropriate for articlespace.

If your submission is not edited soon, it could be nominated for deletion. If you would like to attempt to save it, you will need to improve it.

You may request Userfication of the content if it meets requirements.

If the deletion has already occured, instructions on how you may be able to retrieve it are available at WP:REFUND/G13.

Thank you for your attention. HasteurBot (talk) 01:38, 27 October 2019 (UTC)Reply

Your draft article, Draft:Hair (wisely series)

edit
 

Hello, Ljccrim. It has been over six months since you last edited the Articles for Creation submission or Draft page you started, "Hair".

In accordance with our policy that Wikipedia is not for the indefinite hosting of material deemed unsuitable for the encyclopedia mainspace, the draft has been nominated for deletion. If you plan on working on it further, or editing it to address the issues raised if it was declined, simply edit the submission and remove the {{db-afc}}, {{db-draft}}, or {{db-g13}} code.

If your submission has already been deleted by the time you get there, and you wish to retrieve it, you can request its undeletion by following the instructions at this link. An administrator will, in most cases, restore the submission so you can continue to work on it.

Thank you for your submission to Wikipedia! HasteurBot (talk) 04:01, 27 November 2019 (UTC)Reply

Henry Harpending

edit

Your article on Father Absenteeism cites a scientific study that was written by a white nationalist, Henry Harpending. It would be citation ten, Father Absence and Reproductive Strategy: An Evolutionary Perspective. Hopefully you know why it's important to not include white supremacist citations in an article about father absence. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Ileeksc (talkcontribs) 20:21, 24 February 2021 (UTC)Reply
