Disambiguation link notification for August 19
editHi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Canton, Michigan, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page West Side High School. 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.

Finding disruptive edits
editYou don't have to be an admin to fight vandalism and other forms of disruptive editing, or to report vandalism :being an admin mean youn can delete pages, block users and edit fully protected stuff, among other priviliges.

Speedy deletion nomination of Philip Ngo
editHello Patrickkane88,
I wanted to let you know that I just tagged Philip Ngo for deletion, because it seems to be vandalism or a hoax.
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.
You can leave a note on my talk page if you have questions. Crystallizedcarbon (talk) 22:13, 14 September 2015 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Alex DeBrincat
editIf 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 Alex DeBrincat requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a person or group of people, an individual animal, an organization (band, club, company, etc.), web content or an organised event, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please read more about what is generally accepted as notable.

September 2015
editDo not create, add, maintain, insert, or restore hoaxes on Wikipedia. Usually, hoaxes will be caught and marked for deletion shortly after they are created. If you are interested in how accurate Wikipedia is, a more constructive test method would be to try to find inaccurate statements that are already in Wikipedia – and then to correct them if possible. Please do not disrupt Wikipedia. Feel free to take a look at the five pillars of Wikipedia to learn more about this project and how you can contribute constructively. Anyone who persists in creating hoaxes, disruptions or inappropriate articles may be indefinitely blocked from editing Wikipedia.. — CactusWriter (talk) 03:06, 15 September 2015 (UTC)
