Please bear these points in mind while editing Wikipedia:

Respect copyrights – do not copy and paste text or images directly from other websites.
Maintain a neutral point of view – this is one of Wikipedia's core policies.
Take particular care while adding biographical material about a living person to any Wikipedia page and follow Wikipedia's Biography of Living Persons policy. Particularly, controversial and negative statements should be referenced with multiple reliable sources.
No edit warring or abuse of multiple accounts.
If you are testing, please use the Sandbox to do so.
Do not add troublesome content to any article, such as: copyrighted text, libel, advertising or promotional messages, and text that is not related to an article's subject; doing so will result in your account or IP being blocked from editing.
Do not use talk pages as discussion or forum pages as Wikipedia is not a forum.

The Wikipedia tutorial is a good place to start learning about Wikipedia. If you have any questions, see the help pages, add a question to the village pump or ask me on my talk page. By the way, you can sign your name on Talk and discussion pages using four tildes, like this: ~~~~ (the software will replace them with your signature and the date).

Proposed deletion of File:Nepisiguit Bay Coastline.png

The file File:Nepisiguit Bay Coastline.png has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Unused map. Redundant to c:File:Nepisiguit Bay coastline.png

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated files}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the file's talk page.

Please consider addressing the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated files}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and files for discussion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.

File:Nepisiguit Bay coastline.png

Hi,

I took a stab at removing the orangey colour cast on File:Nepisiguit Bay coastline.png. Let me know your opinion. If you prefer the previous version, feel free to revert it back. Unrelated, I see a test edit above. You can use your sandbox for editing tests, but I see it has been redirected as part of moving the article on Nepisiguit Bay to draft. You can reclaim your sandbox for testing by editing it and removing the redirect code. If you need help with that just let me know. -- Whpq (talk) 19:15, 30 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I think I need help, new here. For the images, I posted one, then I uploaded another and used that. Well, the resolution wasn't good so instead of uploading another image ( third one), I used the option to upload a replacement picture. Which ever way is best to fix this and get the extra ones deleted is fine by me. One way, delete all the map pictures and I ll simply upload the one I want. Whats the easiest out of this? Harry12555 (talk) 19:58, 30 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

The replacement images uploaded under the same file name are part of its history. There is no need to have them deleted. Whpq (talk) 20:03, 30 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Your submission at Articles for creation: Nepisiguit Bay (June 1)

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

While this is likely to be notable per WP:GEOLAND, simply existing is not enough to exempt it from having to be referenced better than this. None of the references here are actually reliable sources that support notability: two are just maps, two are content self-published by municipalities located on the bay, and one just tangentially verifies the existence of a river without even containing the word "Nepisiguit" at all -- and the two marginally acceptable sources are encyclopedia articles about Bathurst, one of which just briefly mentions Nepisiguit Bay without being about Nepisiguit Bay, while the other just contains the word "Nepisiguit" in the context of being the original name of Bathurst without ever saying even one word about the bay.
So, again, this might qualify to have an article that was sourced properly, but these aren't the references that get it in the door.

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:Nepisiguit Bay and click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window.
If you now believe the draft cannot meet Wikipedia's standards or do not wish to progress it further, you may request deletion. Please go to Draft:Nepisiguit Bay, click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window, add "{{Db-g7}}" at the top of the draft text and click the blue "publish changes" button to save this edit.
If you do not make any further changes to your draft in the next 6 months, it will be considered abandoned and may be deleted.
If you need any assistance, or have experienced any untoward behavior associated with this submission, you can ask for help at the Articles for creation help desk, on the reviewer's talk page or use Wikipedia's real-time chat help from experienced editors.

Moncton

In your edit of 18:55, 25 December 2022 (UTC) of Moncton, you introduced <ref name="scpast"/> without a definition of this named reference. Please fix. —Anomalocaris (talk) 10:06, 26 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks, I fixed it up, I am new to some of this. Harry12555 (talk) 13:19, 26 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

OK. If you removed the table containing the reference because you really wanted to delete the table, fine. If you removed the table because you don't know how to define the reference, well, presumably you copied this from some other Wikipedia article that also said <ref name="scpast"/>, and, presumably, in that article, somewhere it says <ref name="scpast">...</ref>, with the reference defined there. That's the markup you need here, if you want to use the reference. For more on this topic, see Help:Footnotes#Footnotes: using a source more than once. —Anomalocaris (talk) 09:41, 27 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I would of copied, I couldn't understand how to add mutli ref.. Thanks for the link, I ll understand how to do it right next time. Harry12555 (talk) 11:40, 27 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]
