Disambiguation link notification for April 16

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Rikki Fulton, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Gallowgate (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.

It's OK to remove this message. Also, to stop receiving these messages, follow these opt-out instructions. Thanks, DPL bot (talk) 08:55, 16 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

VuTV page

Hi, you indicated that you'd marked VuTV for speedy deletion as it's "promotional". Please can you be specific on what content is promotional? (Note that I'd only just created the page when you marked it for deletion, and since then a number of further edits have been made.) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Mpjalexander (talk • contribs) 18:01, 17 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

- Thanks for letting me know bout the additional content to this article, I have removed the speedy deletion template now that further sources have been provided. --KaraokeMac (talk) 18:06, 17 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

July 2014

Please do not insert fringe or undue weight content into articles, as you did to Heart Scotland. An article should not give undue weight to any aspects of the subject but should strive to treat each aspect with a weight appropriate to its significance to the subject. Please use the article's talk page to discuss the material and its appropriate weight within the article. Thank you. 78.150.215.69 (talk) 12:47, 20 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

• This article has not to be edited again, an admin has already determined the edit is correct and must stay --KaraokeMac (talk) 15:09, 20 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Heart Scotland

Afternoon

Can you come onto the talk page of Heart scotland on how best to sort out, how best to add this information, I agree it should be added etc but we need to do it a better manner,

Please stop. Articles on Wikipedia do not give fringe material equal weight to majority viewpoints; content in articles are given representation in proportion to their prominence. If you continue in this manner, you may be blocked from editing Wikipedia. 78.150.215.69 (talk) 16:41, 20 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

March 2018

Welcome to Wikipedia. We appreciate your contributions, including your edits to Rucka Rucka Ali, but we cannot accept original research. Original research refers to material—such as facts, allegations, ideas, and personal experiences—for which no reliable, published sources exist; it also encompasses combining published sources in a way to imply something that none of them explicitly say. Please be prepared to cite a reliable source for all of your contributions. Thank you. Smtchahal (talk) 09:59, 25 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Read WP:OR, particularly WP:SYNTH. Also, The video was uploaded to a lot of online praise from his fans who were able to relate to similar experiences of loneliness, depression and mental health making Ali more relatable as someone who suffers issues themselves. is supported by what source, exactly? Smtchahal (talk) 10:11, 25 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

- video commenters on said video - exactly! not exactly difficult to go look at the video, its content and the comments --KaraokeMac (talk) 10:13, 25 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

YouTube comments cannot be taken as a reliable source – anyone can post a YouTube comment, it's crowd-sourced. If you have a news publication that wrote about this or something similar, feel free to add it again with a citation. But do read this guideline on reliable sources, and take the time to familiarize yourself with what are and aren't considered reliable sources. Smtchahal (talk) 10:16, 25 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Oliver tree

I have moved this page to Draft:Oliver Tree, you can work on it there and submit it for publication via WP:AFC. Frayæ (Talk/Spjall) 08:42, 4 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Also note the article is not being deleted. I did initially tag it for deletion, but on reflection I decided that an "up and coming" rapper may well be more widely covered in reliable sources in the foreseeable future. The redirect from the main article to the draft area (created by me) will still be deleted. The article is located at Draft:Oliver Tree. Frayæ (Talk/Spjall) 08:52, 4 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Frantone Electronics

Hello Karaokemac, I wanted to alert you that I've removed the list of products that you added to Frantone Electronics. Per WP:NOTBROCHURE, the page cannot serve as a catalog for all of the products produced by Fran in the style that you had written it, especially being unsourced in its entirety. That's not to say that the products can't be mentioned, or even that there can't be a list of them, but they'd need to be formatted in a way that was not analogous to an advertisement, and preferably would also consist of properly cited information to verify notability or pertinence of a given product. If you take issue or have any questions, don't hesitate to reach out. /Tpdwkouaa (talk) 04:12, 1 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Your submission at Articles for creation: HubNut (June 23)

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

To meet the inclusion criteria, references that provide extensive coverage via reliable, independent sources are required.

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:HubNut 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:HubNut, 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.
