SMK Sungai Nibong moved to draftspace
[edit]An article you recently created, SMK Sungai Nibong, is not suitable as written to remain published. It needs 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.

Users may edit the article during the discussion, including to improve the article to address concerns raised in the discussion. However, do not remove the article-for-deletion notice from the top of the article.

[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 Plus/Minus (film). 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. Please do not copy drafts and paste into the main space. It disrupts the edit history of the article and circumvents the article submission process. BOVINEBOY2008 14:23, 9 August 2021 (UTC)
Conversing via edit summary by reverting and then unreverting
[edit]People are unlikely to see your edit summary unless they watch the article edit history (and maybe not even then, if other edits happen in the interim and they are only viewing the most recent edit to the page on their watchlist). It's better to discuss in discussion/talk pages (like this one, or the talk page of an article) where you can ping the person you're talking to by linking their username and you have more characters to work with to explain your position. In fact, in the case of my reversion of you on Cole Sprouse where you restored your edit and then undid it (presumably just to communicate with me), that's what I was suggesting in the rationale I put down for my revert--to discuss that kind of change on the talk page if you wish to see it happen. Consensus on that article in the past has been to not include that information. Consensus is when editors who edit an article discuss what they think is best to do on an article and then agree to do that. Editors on Cole Sprouse's article agreed that it was better and more in line with Wikipedia guidelines and policies not to include information about his love life with Lili Reinhart. Technically you don't have to discuss in order to try to change consensus and you could just do it through editing, but in many scenarios (including this one, IMO) it's better to propose a change to established consensus by raising a discussion on the article's talk page than to try to do it by edit and potentially end up in an edit war.
(I feel the need to further note that saying "other articles do this, too" as you seem to have done in the Cole Sprouse undo-communication, is a WP:OTHERSTUFFEXISTS argument, which isn't always the best point to raise for keeping information, particularly if consensus or content guidelines are not on your side.) - Purplewowies (talk) 14:16, 10 August 2021 (UTC)

In accordance with our policy that Wikipedia is not for the indefinite hosting of material deemed unsuitable for the encyclopedia mainspace, the draft has been nominated for deletion. If you plan on working on it further, or editing it to address the issues raised if it was declined, simply and remove the {{db-afc}}

, or {{db-g13}}
code.
If your submission has already been deleted by the time you get there, and you wish to retrieve it, you can request its undeletion by following the instructions at this link. An administrator will, in most cases, restore the submission so you can continue to work on it.
Thank you for your submission to Wikipedia! Eternal Shadow Talk 19:36, 29 January 2022 (UTC)
