Support Our Families

edit

While I was rewriting Support Our Families you deleted it. I reposted it as a completely different article with the same title. Is there another way to go about posting it now that it is wiki material? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Steve.fami.ly (talkcontribs) 20:19, 13 January 2007 (UTC).Reply

You just did it. Stifle (talk) 20:45, 13 January 2007 (UTC)Reply

Ral315 deleted Support Our Families today saying that it was recreation of a deleted article and then protected it so it couldn't be recreated. Can you please help me by undoing this deletion and protection? I know that the last time you read it you still thought it should be deleted - I since edited it (now it addressses verifiable usage on over 50,000 results in google). Either way, as you noted above the content was completely different and it seems that the manner in which it was deleted was inappropriate. I agree that it was promotional and therefore worthy of deletion when you deleted it. That alone doesn't seem like reason enough not to give it a chance now. I honestly think it was a valid contribution and put in a lot of time responding to every piece of feeback I received to make it so and am frustrated that it was deleted instantly without giving me a period of time to justify it to the community.

No, I do not have discretion to override other admins. You can make a listing at Wikipedia:Deletion review instead. Stifle (talk) 21:37, 15 January 2007 (UTC)Reply
While to the strictest meaning of the word, it was not a recreation, it was, however, pushing the boundaries of recreation, as it was a less subtle advertisement for supportourfamilies.com. It was also only a dictionary definition, which also is not allowed on Wikipedia. Ral315 (talk) 15:27, 16 January 2007 (UTC)Reply

Orphaned fair use image (Image:Support our families.jpg)

edit

Thanks for uploading Image:Support our families.jpg. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable under fair use (see our fair use policy).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any fair use images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you.

  Hello, I'm Praxidicae. I noticed that you recently removed content from Stop the Steal without adequately explaining why. In the future, it would be helpful to others if you described your changes to Wikipedia with an accurate edit summary. If this was a mistake, don't worry; the removed content has been restored. If you would like to experiment, please use your sandbox. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. This has already been discussed on the talk page - if you think it should still be deleted, you need to take it to WP:AFD. Praxidicae (talk) 14:51, 14 December 2020 (UTC)Reply

American politics discretionary sanctions notice

edit

This is a standard message to notify contributors about an administrative ruling in effect. It does not imply that there are any issues with your contributions to date.

You have shown interest in post-1992 politics of the United States and closely related people. Due to past disruption in this topic area, a more stringent set of rules called discretionary sanctions is in effect. Any administrator may impose sanctions on editors who do not strictly follow Wikipedia's policies, or the page-specific restrictions, when making edits related to the topic.

For additional information, please see the guidance on discretionary sanctions and the Arbitration Committee's decision here. If you have any questions, or any doubts regarding what edits are appropriate, you are welcome to discuss them with me or any other editor.

Advocacy using unreliable primary sources

edit

Sources like these that promote baseless conspiracy theories like "The COVID-19 opportunity may have been leveraged to shutdown the whole world for the sole purpose of stopping President Trump from getting re-elected." are not acceptable for Wikipedia. I highly suggest consulting WP:RSP and WP:RSN and its archives to determine what sources can be used. Please also see WP:PRIMARY, WP:RS and WP:NOT. —PaleoNeonate08:45, 9 March 2021 (UTC)Reply
