editHello and welcome to Wikipedia. When you add content to talk pages and Wikipedia pages that have open discussion (but never when editing articles), such as at Wikipedia:Teahouse, please be sure to sign your posts. There are two ways to do this. Either:
- Add four tildes ( ~~~~ ) at the end of your comment, or
- With the cursor positioned at the end of your comment, click on the signature button located above the edit window.
This will automatically insert a signature with your username or IP address and the time you posted the comment. This information is necessary to allow other editors to easily see who wrote what and when.
Thank you. Drm310 🍁 (talk) 17:02, 1 November 2019 (UTC)
The Voice Nigeria (Season 2)
editSorry for creating your article directly on Wikipedia, I only meant to create the article quickly because the draft may stay a long time before being moved to main space so I deeply apologize for the creation. I know how it feels to work on something and someone else gets all the credit. Sorry again for that. Kindly accept my apologies AndrewNatty (talk) 06:12, 3 December 2019 (UTC)
Your apology is accepted. I understand your reason now. But I got very furious when it happened. Thanks for creating the article. We are both new editors so things like this will probably occur. It takes time to know how it goes around here. I created another article for the first season. Feel free to edit it. Thanks once again. Happy editing. Taymeedeeray (talk) 18:04, 3 December 2019 (UTC)
FYI - User:AndrewNatty indefinitely blocked as a sockpuppet, i.e., second account, of an editor, who is also indef blocked. David notMD (talk) 21:20, 3 December 2019 (UTC)
Notice
editHi Taymeedeeray. Following the discussion which took place at the Teahouse a couple of days ago about a user copying & pasting your draft, I have opened a thread at the administrator's incident noticeboard, here. Because you are mentioned in it, I am letting you know as a courtesy - but don't worry about it or feel that you have to respond unless you want to. WJ94 (talk) 18:33, 3 December 2019 (UTC)
Removing Teahouse questions
editHi Taymeedeeray. Please don't remove questions from the Teahouse (even if you asked them) which have already been responded to by a Teahouse host for the reasons given in WP:TPO; Teahouse questions are ultimately archived for reference because there may be other editors who might find the answers given as helpful. You don't have to post in the discussion any more if you don't want to or you can even strikethrough you posts (only your posts, not the replies given by others) if you want as explained in WP:REDACT, but you should not remove the entire discussion. It's OK if you weren't aware that this kind of thing is not allowed, but please don't do it again now that you are. -- Marchjuly (talk) 14:04, 7 December 2019 (UTC)
Thank you very much, I'm a very new editor . I would appreciate any advice . I didnt know I couldn't delete it . I will not do it again . Happy editing .......Taymeedeeray (talk) 04:13, 8 December 2019 (UTC)
Requests for uncreated articles
editGreetings & a great weekend to you all. I believe it would be great if the (Requests for uncreated articles) section in our wiki project can be attended to & at least one article be created this weekend as some requests have been pending since 2016. I believe this would be pivotal to the encyclopedia as a whole & a means to get editors who have gone inactive to revive their Wikipedia activities. Sent by Celestina007.

editHello, I'm Magnolia677. I noticed that you added or changed content in an article, The Voice Nigeria, but you didn't provide a reliable source. It's been removed and archived in the page history for now, but if you'd like to include a citation and re-add it, please do so. You can have a look at the tutorial on citing sources, or if you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Reverting another editor so you can add back unsourced content is not helpful. Magnolia677 (talk) 18:06, 9 February 2020 (UTC)

editHello, I'm Serols. I wanted to let you know that I reverted one of your recent contributions —specifically this edit to The Voice (Australian season 9)—because it did not appear constructive. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. If you have any questions, you can ask for assistance at the Help desk. Thanks. Serols (talk) 07:33, 21 June 2020 (UTC)
