Your contributed article, Regular Show (season 4)
[edit]![](http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/1/1d/Information_icon4.svg/48px-Information_icon4.svg.png)
If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.
You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.
Hello, I noticed that you recently created a new page, Regular Show (season 4). First, thank you for your contribution; Wikipedia relies solely on the efforts of volunteers such as you. Unfortunately, the page you created covers a topic on which we already have a page – List of Regular Show episodes. Because of the duplication, your article has been tagged for speedy deletion. Please note that this is not a comment on you personally and we hope you will continue helping to improve Wikipedia. If the topic of the article you created is one that interests you, then perhaps you would like to help out at List of Regular Show episodes – you might like to discuss new information at the article's talk page.
If you think that the article you created should remain separate, contest the nomination by clicking on the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion" in the speedy deletion tag. Doing so will take you to the talk page where you can explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. You can also visit the page's talk page directly to give your reasons, but be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but do not hesitate to add information that is consistent with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, you can contact one of these administrators to request that the administrator userfy the page or email a copy to you. Additionally if you would like to have someone review articles you create before they go live so they are not nominated for deletion shortly after you post them, allow me to suggest the article creation process and using our search feature to find related information we already have in the encyclopedia. Try not to be discouraged. Wikipedia looks forward to your future contributions. —teb728 t c 01:05, 28 October 2012 (UTC)

Regarding the categories you created
[edit]Welcome to Wikipedia! I have deleted the categories as they were really articles, not categories. However, as articles, they do not meet the notability guidelines for inclusion on Wikipedia. For information on what categories are for, please see the guide on categorization. -- Gogo Dodo (talk) 00:56, 1 November 2012 (UTC)
Speedy deletion nomination of Sam Marin
[edit]![](http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/1/15/Ambox_warning_pn.svg/48px-Ambox_warning_pn.svg.png)
If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.
You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.
A tag has been placed on Sam Marin requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a person or group of people, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable.
If you think that the page was nominated in error, contest the nomination by clicking on the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion" in the speedy deletion tag. Doing so will take you to the talk page where you can explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. You can also visit the page's talk page directly to give your reasons, but be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but do not hesitate to add information that is consistent with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, you can contact one of these administrators to request that the administrator userfy the page or email a copy to you. — further, Francophonie&Androphilie sayeth naught (Je vous invite à me parler) 23:47, 8 November 2012 (UTC)
Deletion discussion about Mordecai(Regular Show)
[edit]Hello, Joshvs,
I wanted to let you know that there's a discussion about whether Mordecai(Regular Show) should be deleted. Your comments are welcome at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Mordecai(Regular Show) .
If you're new to the process, articles for deletion is a group discussion (not a vote!) that usually lasts seven days. If you need it, there is a guide on how to contribute. Last but not least, you are highly encouraged to continue improving the article; just be sure not to remove the tag about the deletion nomination from the top.
Thanks, Travelbird (talk) 15:44, 1 December 2012 (UTC)
Speedy deletion nomination of Mordecai(Regular Show)
[edit]Hello Joshvs,
I wanted to let you know that I just tagged Yeti(Josh vs. Fred) for deletion, because the article doesn't clearly say why the subject is important enough to be included in an encyclopedia.
If you feel that the article shouldn't be deleted and want more time to work on it, you can contest this deletion, but please don't remove the speedy deletion tag from the top.
You can leave a note on my talk page if you have questions. Thanks, Noiratsi (talk) 21:57, 4 December 2012 (UTC)
Disambiguation link notification for December 5
[edit]Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Rigby (Regular Show), you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page See also (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Please refrain from introducing inappropriate pages, such as Josh vs. Fred, to Wikipedia, as doing so is not in accordance with our policies.

[edit] Hello, I'm McDoobAU93. I wanted to let you know that I undid one or more of your recent contributions to User:Georgia guy because it didn't appear constructive. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks! McDoobAU93 00:40, 12 January 2013 (UTC)
Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. I noticed that your user page may not meet Wikipedia's user page guideline. If you believe that your user page does not violate our guideline, please leave a note on this page. Alternatively you may add
{{Db-userreq}}

Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. This is a notice to inform you that a tag has been placed on Smiley Face Maddnezz requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia.

[edit]I'm not trying to be rude or anything, but maybe you should take a break from Wikipedia until you've learnt how to spell. I'm honestly surprised you haven't been banned yet, at least half of your edits get reverted, and you've vandalised at least two user pages. Just maybe check your spelling every once in a while, and stop creating pages if you don't know what you're doing.--Pokelova (talk) 16:09, 11 March 2013 (UTC)

Article Feedback Tool update
[edit]Hey Joshvs. I'm contacting you because you're involved in the Article Feedback Tool in some way, either as a previous newsletter recipient or as an active user of the system. As you might have heard, a user recently anonymously disabled the feedback tool on 2,000 pages. We were unable to track or prevent this due to the lack of logging feature in AFT5. We're deeply sorry for this, as we know that quite a few users found the software very useful, and were using it on their articles.
We've now re-released the software, with the addition of a logging feature and restrictions on the ability to disable. Obviously, we're not going to automatically re-enable it on each article—we don't want to create a situation where it was enabled by users who have now moved on, and feedback would sit there unattended—but if you're interested in enabling it for your articles, it's pretty simple to do. Just go to the article you want to enable it on, click the "request feedback" link in the toolbox in the sidebar, and AFT5 will be enabled for that article.
Again, we're very sorry about this issue; hopefully it'll be smooth sailing after this :). If you have any questions, just drop them at the talkpage. Thanks! Okeyes (WMF) 21:55, 1 September 2013 (UTC)
