Disambiguation link notification for October 3
[edit]Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited New Zealand Warriors, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Matthew Elliott. Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)

Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, please note that there is a Manual of Style that should be followed to maintain a consistent, encyclopedic appearance.

[edit]List of Storm players
[edit]Can I ask why you keep changing the order away from the OFFICIAL list of Storm player numbers each week? Storm machine (talk) 14:01, 22 March 2021 (UTC)
That's what the list of player numbers was previously, I just update it after each and every round 14:29, 22 March 2021 (UTC)
Perhaps you should have looked at the talk page and/or done the research before modifying the order yet again. Storm machine (talk) 14:33, 22 March 2021 (UTC)
I only update the lists. 14:39, 22 March 2021 (UTC)
Well if you could stop changing the order of the list after I reverse the changes you made today to the player cap numbers, that would be much appreciated. The page revert to the changes made last week,but with the round 2 updates maintained. Storm machine (talk) 14:46, 22 March 2021 (UTC)
Use of Bare URLs
[edit]Please don't use these. Please follow the guidelines for inline citations. Deb (talk) 07:52, 13 April 2021 (UTC)
- You are still using bare URLs. Please follow the guidelines in future. Adding incorrectly sourced entries could be considered disruptive editing. Deb (talk) 15:35, 16 April 2021 (UTC)
Days of the Year articles
[edit]Please read WP:DOY before adding names to the births and deaths sections of these pages. As DOY says, having an article is not by itself sufficient to warrant an entry at DOY – the subject must be noteworthy by having accomplished an extraordinary achievement and this is especially so for people in sport and entertainment to prevent indiscriminate addition of people born in the last half-century or so. I notice that you are keen on rugby league but it is highly unlikely that any RL player, except perhaps someone like Rob Burrow who is noteworthy (sadly) for other reasons, would meet the DOY standard. Even Premier League footballers and Olympic athletes must have done something exceptional to warrant inclusion. Thanks. No Great Shaker (talk) 15:49, 16 April 2021 (UTC)
- You have restored edits at August 22 and February 18 without recourse to WP:BRD and so your edits have again been reverted because you must comply with BRD and seek consensus for the changes you wish to make. In addition, it is obvious that the IP restorations of the reverts at June 10, October 2 and October 31 were all done by yourself and that is a breach of WP:SPI as well as WP:BRD. As you evidently don't intend to discuss your actions here, I will be raising an SPI case. No Great Shaker (talk) 14:51, 18 April 2021 (UTC)
This SPI discussion has been opened and you are entitled to take part if you wish to comment. No Great Shaker (talk) 15:30, 18 April 2021 (UTC)

[edit] Hello, I noticed that you may have recently made edits to October 2 while logged out. Wikipedia's policy on multiple accounts usually does not allow the use of both an account and an IP address by the same person in the same setting and doing so may result in your account being blocked from editing. Additionally, making edits while logged out reveals your IP address, which may allow others to determine your location and identity. If this was not your intention, please remember to log in when editing. Please also see Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Afterbrew -- RoySmith (talk) 21:48, 19 April 2021 (UTC)

[edit] Hello, I'm Doctorhawkes. I noticed that you added or changed content in an article, Wests Tigers, 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 referencing for beginners. If you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. Doctorhawkes (talk) 23:38, 17 September 2022 (UTC)

List of Dolphins (NRL) players moved to draftspace
[edit]An article you recently created, List of Dolphins (NRL) players, is not suitable 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 click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page.

Toby Couchman moved to draftspace
[edit]An article you recently created, Toby Couchman, is not suitable as written to remain published. It needs more in-depth coverage about the subject itself, with citations from reliable, independent sources in order to show it meets WP:GNG. It should have at least three, to be safe. And please remember that interviews, as primary sources, do not count towards GNG.(?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia).

[edit] Hi, and thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you tried to give a page a different title by copying its content and pasting either the same content, or an edited version of it, into Toby Couchman. 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 for registered users, 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:Requests for history merge. Thank you. Liz Read!

{{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}}
. Lourdes 11:00, 6 July 2023 (UTC)- Please confirm you understand WP:3RR and edit warring and that you will stop these immediately. Thanks, Lourdes 11:04, 6 July 2023 (UTC)
Evading your block to continue edit warring will only lead to further blocks. – 2.O.Boxing 14:09, 6 July 2023 (UTC)
- Due to no response from you Afterbrew, I fear your propensity will be to continue edit warring. I have increased your block to indefinite thence, pending your response to the block. Use the template given above to request an unblock and any other administrator can consider unblocking you without checking with me. Lourdes 06:31, 8 July 2023 (UTC)
If you take Lourdes' advice, make an unblock request, address the concerns raised--including the logged-out editing--then I don't see a reason why you wouldn't be unblocked. If you still have an issue with MOS:GEOLINK then the best option would be to start a discussion at Wikipedia talk:Manual of Style/Linking. – 2.O.Boxing 23:39, 8 July 2023 (UTC)
And yet more block evasion[1]. – 2.O.Boxing 06:43, 21 July 2023 (UTC)
