- Welcome!
Hello and welcome to Wikipedia. Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. The following links will help you begin editing on Wikipedia:
- The five pillars of Wikipedia
- How to edit a page
- Editing tutorial
- Picture tutorial
- How to write a great article
- Naming conventions
- Manual of Style
- Please bear these points in mind while editing Wikipedia
- Respect copyrights – do not copy and paste text or images directly from other websites.
- Maintain a neutral point of view – this is one of Wikipedia's core policies.
- Take particular care while adding biographical material about a living person to any Wikipedia page and follow Wikipedia's Biography of Living Persons policy. Particularly, controversial and negative statements should be referenced with multiple reliable sources.
- No edit warring or sock puppetry.
- If you are testing, please use the Sandbox to do so.
- Do not add troublesome content to any article, such as: copyrighted text, libel, advertising or promotional messages, and text that is not related to an article's subject. Deliberately adding such content or otherwise editing articles maliciously is considered vandalism; doing so will result in your account or IP being blocked from editing.
- Do not use talk pages as discussion or forum pages as Wikipedia is not a forum.
The Wikipedia tutorial is a good place to start learning about Wikipedia. If you have any questions, see the help pages, add a question to the village pump or ask me on my talk page. By the way, you can sign your name on Talk and discussion pages using four tildes, like this: ~~~~ (the software will replace them with your signature and the date). Again, welcome!
This is an automated message from CorenSearchBot. I have performed a search with the contents of April Ludgate-Dwyer, and it appears to be very similar to another Wikipedia page: April Ludgate. It is possible that you have accidentally duplicated contents, or made an error while creating the page— you might want to look at the pages and see if that is the case. If you are intentionally trying to rename an article, please see Help:Moving a page for instructions on how to do this without copying and pasting. If you are trying to move or copy content from one article to a different one, please see Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia and be sure you have acknowledged the duplication of material in an edit summary to preserve attribution history.
It is possible that the bot is confused and found similarity where none actually exists. If that is the case, you can remove the tag from the article. CorenSearchBot (talk) 17:04, 1 February 2015 (UTC)

editHi, and thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you tried to give April Ludgate a different title by copying its content and pasting either the same content, or an edited version of it, into another page with a different name. This is known as a "cut-and-paste move", and it is undesirable because it splits the page history, which is legally required for attribution. Instead, the software used by Wikipedia has a feature that allows pages to be moved to a new title together with their edit history.
In most cases, once your account is four days old and has ten edits, you should be able to move an article yourself using the "Move" tab at the top of the page (the tab may be hidden in a dropdown menu for you). This both preserves the page history intact and automatically creates a redirect from the old title to the new. If you cannot perform a particular page move yourself this way (e.g. because a page already exists at the target title), please follow the instructions at requested moves to have it moved by someone else. Also, if there are any other pages that you moved by copying and pasting, even if it was a long time ago, please list them at Wikipedia:Cut-and-paste-move repair holding pen. Thank you.

Michigan State Legislator Birth Dates
editHello @Skm989898: I've noticed that you have been making edits to a lot of Michigan state legislators' Wikipedia articles lately. You've been adding a lot of birthdates to these pages. Here's the problem: You are not providing a source for these claims, as far as I can see. I'm going to need to ask you where you are getting this information. If you cannot cite this information, I am sorry, I am going to need to remove these edits. RoundSquare (talk) 05:04, 13 September 2021 (UTC)
Please cite these claims
editHello @Skm989898: You have continued to put unsourced birthdates on Michigan state legislator articles since my last message. Seeing that you have been a Wikipedian for years, and that you have created articles which cite sources before, I know you are capable of doing this the right way. If you are going to make a claim on a Michigan state legislators' article, please cite it, or do not add it at all. Over the course of 5 days you have done this with at least 16 articles. Information on Wikpedia, especially information on a living person, which all of these state legislators have been, MUST be cited. I am sure your heart is in the right place, but you are not adding valuable contributions this way, and it is important that you change your ways. RoundSquare (talk) 01:15, 14 September 2021 (UTC)
Regarding standardization of County votes in the 2020 election
editHello @Skm989898! I am finding that you are standardizing county vote tables to versions I, while setting up my hobby projects regarding them, find much more useless, as vote margins (both in percent and in number) have been removed. I understand that standardizing seems important to you but I request that the information be put back so I can actually use these pages without having to do a horrendous amount of math every time I want to make a map of a states vote margin. If you feel you cannot comply please at least tell me so, if possible with a description of why afterwards. (This is my first time writing a message like this so i hope the computer knows how to add that part in the end, if not feel free to remove this parenthesis) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Fili999999 (talk • contribs) 13:35, 12 November 2021 (UTC)
- Hi, and thanks for reaching out. When it comes to Wikipedia charts, especially those involving a lot of numbers, our goal is always to include the bare minimum amount of information possible. In this case, adding a separate column for "margin" is mostly redundant, since all of the information needed to calculate it is already in the chart. Additionally, having 50 different charts styled 50 different ways for each state is unattractive, confusing, and violates how Wikipedia handles other visual demonstrations of electoral data. My updates are also in line with how Wikipedia's election charts have historically looked. However, I do understand that this is tedious for your personal project, so here are a few suggestions. First, any chart that was previously up on Wikipedia before I rearranged it can still be found by going back on the "View History" tab. For example, on the 2020 United States presidential election in Alabama page, you can click "View History," and then click on (for example) April 9, 2021—which was before I began going through each page. There, you will find the old chart with the margins column still available. This can be done for any state for which that information was previously present. A separate solution would be to consider a membership with U.S. Election Atlas, where all of that information (and more) is available. If you are sifting through a ton of election data all the time, theirs will both be more accurate and more thorough. So while I do not intend to re-insert the margin columns to the charts, you should still be able to get back to the old margin data on here (which I recommend, as it is free), or on that website. Best wishes, --Skm989898 (talk) 21:16, 12 November 2021 (UTC)
Thank you for your reply and for clarifying wikipedia guidelines, while I certainly would have preferred a better page, I can now see why that may not be possible. Using the history view, while tedious will do just fine, and as the projects for individual states and counties are rare I will just ask that the table for the election at large not be edited that way (as I use that much more frequently), but seeing as it adheres to the norm I am sure you werent planning to do that anyway. Thanks for the reply. /Fili999999 — Preceding unsigned comment added by Fili999999 (talk • contribs) 10:25, 14 November 2021 (UTC)

editHello - I've just reverted a couple edits you've made to Maryland-related pages, such as Jill P. Carter where you had changed her year of birth without citing a source.

- Hi, and thanks for reaching out. The information for everyone I updated is correct and also verifiable on the Maryland Board of Elections website. I go through and double check that everyone's birth dates are accurate with the state registry. Because it requires putting in their info to verify, there is no clear link showing the source. But I would be happy to leave the link to the Board of Elections website on her page if you think that would be help. I do ask that you please return the edits you changed as they are correct.
