COI check

Hello DownTownRich. Do you have any links with the companies whose articles you edit? Cheers 1292simon (talk) 00:48, 20 September 2020 (UTC)

Which ones specifically? DownTownRich (talk) 12:22, 20 September 2020 (UTC)

The ones in this list please. Cheers, 1292simon (talk) 08:49, 21 September 2020 (UTC)

No I do not have any links with the organizations, even when I edit I make sure that most of the information I add or edit is from valuable sources and viable to Wikipedia. If an article I think deserves to be on Wikipedia but I find not much information of value on it I make it a stub to allow other editors to add on to it. Every time I do this I make sure that I am neutral while at it. DownTownRich (talk) 16:55, 23 September 2020 (UTC)

Thanks Rich, that is great to hear. Your aims to add sources and maintain neutrality are very commendable. Happy editing! Cheers, 1292simon (talk) 09:28, 24 September 2020 (UTC)

Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you copied or moved text from GoDaddy into another page. While you are welcome to re-use Wikipedia's content, here or elsewhere, Wikipedia's licensing does require that you provide attribution to the original contributor(s). When copying within Wikipedia, this is supplied at minimum in an edit summary at the page into which you've copied content, disclosing the copying and linking to the copied page, e.g., copied content from [[page name]]; see that page's history for attribution. It is good practice, especially if copying is extensive, to also place a properly formatted {{copied}} template on the talk pages of the source and destination. Please provide attribution for this duplication if it has not already been supplied by another editor, and if you have copied material between pages before, even if it was a long time ago, you should provide attribution for that also. You can read more about the procedure and the reasons at Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia. Thank you. MarioGom (talk) 13:40, 5 January 2022 (UTC) {{User:ClueBot III/ArchiveNow}}

Anthony Carter page move

Hi there. Your move close at Talk:Anthony Carter (basketball) was not formatted correctly, so I fixed it.[1] Additionally, it doesn't seem like Wikipedia:Requested moves/Closing instructions was followed. The disambiguation page was not moved to the base title (I went and moved it), and the old incoming links to the basketball player at Anthony Carter were not fixed (it's been tagged).—Bagumba (talk) 11:25, 29 January 2022 (UTC)

Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you copied or moved text from Square (financial services company) into Block, Inc..

WP:AFC Helper News

Hello! I wanted to drop a quick note for all of our AFC participants; nothing huge and fancy like a newsletter, but a few points of interest.

• AFCH will now show live previews of the comment to be left on a decline.
• The template {{db-afc-move}} has been created - this template is similar to {{db-move}} when there is a redirect in the way of an acceptance, but specifically tells the patrolling admin to let you (the draft reviewer) take care of the actual move.

Short and sweet, but there's always more to discuss at WT:AFC. Stop on by, maybe review a draft on the way? Whether you're one of our top reviewers, or haven't reviewed in a while, I want to thank you for helping out in the past and in the future. Cheers, Primefac, via MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 15:59, 16 February 2022 (UTC) {{User:ClueBot III/ArchiveNow}}

Please look the talk page to see the news. She is not the person who died. --Egeymi (talk) 09:23, 4 April 2022 (UTC)

Was sectioning the existing information. Seems she shares a name with another Princess? The article needs to stipulate she shares the name with the daughter of King Faisal. Will discuss further at the article talk page. - DownTownRich (talk) 09:27, 4 April 2022 (UTC)

Autopatrolled granted

Hi DownTownRich, I just wanted to let you know that I have added the "autopatrolled" permission to your account, as you have created numerous, valid articles. This feature will have no effect on your editing, and is simply intended to reduce the workload on new page patrollers. For more information on the autopatrolled right, see Wikipedia:Autopatrolled. However, you should consider adding relevant wikiproject talk-page templates, stub-tags and categories to new articles that you create if you aren't already in the habit of doing so, since your articles will no longer be systematically checked by other editors (User:Evad37/rater and User:SD0001/StubSorter.js are useful scripts which can help). Feel free to leave me a message if you have any questions. Happy editing! ~Swarm~ ^{sting} 22:44, 15 April 2022 (UTC) {{User:ClueBot III/ArchiveNow}}

You put the following on my talk page:

I used the sandbox, and yet I got a warning for doing so, and was told to use the sandbox???

Hello, I'm Qwerfjkl (bot). I have automatically detected that this edit performed by you, on the page Egyptian Electricity Holding Company, may have introduced referencing errors. They are as follows:

Thank you for mentioning Lead Section Citations.

As a general rule of thumb, a lead section should contain no more than four well-composed paragraphs and be carefully sourced as appropriate

I added that tag because the lead section of the article had zero citations and with the current events and coverage different sources can be used without repeating to provide the community with confidence that the information is properly sourced, verified and not part of any misinformation.
