Welcome to Wikipedia: check out the Teahouse![edit]

Hello! Fishmen123, you are invited to the Teahouse, a forum on Wikipedia for new editors to ask questions about editing Wikipedia, and get support from peers and experienced editors. Please join us! Liz ^{Read! Talk!} 20:17, 5 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Previous account(s)?[edit]

Hello, Fishmen123,

I was just wondering if you previously edited Wikipedia with other accounts. It is unusual for a brand new account to know things like how to make a userbox (or even to know what userboxes are!). If you have any questions about editing Wikipedia, please bring them to the Teahouse. Thank you! Liz ^{Read! Talk!} 20:19, 5 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

No worries!, I have seen many tutorials on YouTube and on Wikipedia myself so I've almost adapted to making userboxes and stuff. Fishmen123 (talk) 20:22, 5 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Your submission at Articles for creation: Ruben Sim (January 6)[edit]

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed! Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reason left by Bilorv was:

This submission's references do not show that the subject qualifies for a Wikipedia article—that is, they do not show significant coverage (not just passing mentions) about the subject in published, reliable, secondary sources that are independent of the subject (see the guidelines on the notability of people). Before any resubmission, additional references meeting these criteria should be added (see technical help and learn about mistakes to avoid when addressing this issue). If no additional references exist, the subject is not suitable for Wikipedia.

The comment the reviewer left was:

The only reliable independent sources are about Simon being sued by Roblox, which is already covered at Roblox Corporation#Legal disputes and likely not appropriate for a standalone article.

Please check the submission for any additional comments left by the reviewer. You are encouraged to edit the submission to address the issues raised and resubmit after they have been resolved.

If you would like to continue working on the submission, go to Draft:Ruben Sim and click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window.
If you do not edit your draft in the next 6 months, it will be considered abandoned and may be deleted.

January 2023[edit]

You are suspected of sockpuppetry, which means that someone suspects you of using multiple Wikipedia accounts for prohibited purposes. Please make yourself familiar with the guide to responding to investigations, then, if you wish to do so, respond to the evidence at Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Trainrobber66. Thank you.

Proper way to insert images in infoboxes[edit]

Hello. I am @Archer1234. I noticed your recent edit to Binley, Coventry where you added an image to the infobox. I want to let you know that the way you added the image was not done according to Wikipedia's Manual of Style (see WP:INFOBOXIMAGE).

When adding an image to an infobox, thumbnails should NOT be used. Simply supplying the file name will work. For example, to use File:Image PlaceHolder.png, you can simply use |image=Image PlaceHolder.png. Captions should be specified with the |caption= parameter. Every infobox is different and the documentation for the infobox in question should be consulted for the proper parameters to match the image and caption.

To fix

Do not use the full image syntax:

|image=[[File:SomeImage.jpg|thumb|Some image caption]]

Instead, just supply the name of the image. So, in this case you can simply do:

|image=SomeImage.jpg

and optionally:

|caption=Some image caption.

Hopefully you will find this information useful for your future editing. If you have any questions about this, feel free to ask. — Archer1234 (t·c) 15:27, 11 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

@Archer1234 ok thanks I'll use this information next time Fishmen123 (talk) 17:33, 11 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
