User talk:Python Drink

Welcome!

Hello, Victor obini, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Unfortunately, your edit to NotAllMen does not conform to Wikipedia's Neutral Point of View policy (NPOV). Wikipedia articles should refer only to facts and interpretations that have been stated in print or on reputable websites or other forms of media.

There's a page about the NPOV policy that has tips on how to effectively write about disparate points of view without compromising the NPOV status of the article as a whole. If you are stuck, and looking for help, please come to the Questions page, where experienced Wikipedians can answer any queries you have! Or, click here to ask for help on your talk page, and a volunteer should respond shortly. Below are a few other good links for newcomers:

Important notice: gender-related controversies

This is a standard message to notify contributors about an administrative ruling in effect. It does not imply that there are any issues with your contributions to date.

You have shown interest in gender-related disputes or controversies or in people associated with them. Due to past disruption in this topic area, a more stringent set of rules called discretionary sanctions is in effect. Any administrator may impose sanctions on editors who do not strictly follow Wikipedia's policies, or the page-specific restrictions, when making edits related to the topic.

To opt out of receiving messages like this one, place {{Ds/aware}} on your user talk page and specify in the template the topic areas that you would like to opt out of alerts about. For additional information, please see the guidance on discretionary sanctions and the Arbitration Committee's decision here. If you have any questions, or any doubts regarding what edits are appropriate, you are welcome to discuss them with me or any other editor.

Why I believe in God

To answer your e-mail: most intelligent atheists say they don't know what the Universe came from (no, they don't say it arose from nothing). In place of "I don't know" I put "Deus sive Natura". For the rest I'm pretty much in the same boat with atheists. tgeorgescu (talk) 11:05, 26 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Hey, PD

I was trying to figure out how to email you, but I haven't done that with someone in a long time. I did it with someone here a long time ago... like a decade ago, or something like that. I'd rather not answer your question about whether I'm a JW. Nothing against you, it's just that since I don't really know you I'd rather not divulge personal information. Thank you. I hope you enjoy your time on WP. Take care. I actually even got rid of a lot of those userboxes because they had a lot of outdated information about really old movies from the 2000s that I used to be into. It was cracking me up. Lol. Lighthead ^þ 05:41, 13 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

It's totally fine; I respect your privacy. Thanks for replying me. As for the email stuff, I don't know how to do it the "normal way" either lol. What I did was to type wiki.riteme.site/Special:Email/Lighthead into my address bar. If you wanted to email me, the appropriate address would be wiki.riteme.site/Special:Email/Python Drink. Edit (Jul 28): @Lighthead: I forgot to ping you, my bad --

Susan Pwajok moved to draftspace

An article you recently created, Susan Pwajok, is not suitable as written to remain published. It needs more 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. Ovinus (talk) 06:43, 11 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@Ovinus: I do admit the article lacked citations. I was too quick to publish because I was confident I'd find enough sources. Thanks for informing me, I guess -- Python Drink (talk) 17:22, 15 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for uploading File:Susan Pwajok Instagram Photo, May 2022.jpg. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described in section F5 of the criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. --B-bot (talk) 17:26, 14 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy deletion nomination of Draft:Duckrolling

A tag has been placed on Draft:Duckrolling requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done for the following reason:

G13, most recent edit before mine was made by a sock, most likely to prevent this from being deleted.

Under the criteria for speedy deletion, pages that meet certain criteria may be deleted at any time.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator, or if you have already done so, you can place a request here. ― Blaze Wolf^Talk_{Blaze Wolf#6545} 19:55, 6 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Your draft article, Draft:Prasanjit Narzary

Hello, Python Drink. It has been over six months since you last edited the Articles for Creation submission or Draft page you started, "Prasanjit Narzary".

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 deleted. If you plan on working on it further and you wish to retrieve it, you can request its undeletion. An administrator will, in most cases, restore the submission so you can continue to work on it.

Thanks for your submission to Wikipedia, and happy editing. Liz ^{Read! Talk!} 02:26, 30 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@Liz,I never really cared about the article. I created it on behalf of a new editor who was initially drafting it right in their user page. I might contact the editor in case they're still interested in this article. — Python Drink (talk) 18:49, 31 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Guideline and policy news

Following an RfC, editors indefinitely site-banned by community consensus will now have all rights, including sysop, removed.
As a part of the Wikimedia Foundation's IP Masking project, a new policy has been created that governs the access to temporary account IP addresses. An associated FAQ has been created and individual communities can increase the requirements to view temporary account IP addresses.

Technical news

Bot operators and tool maintainers should schedule time in the coming months to test and update their tools for the effects of IP masking. IP masking will not be deployed to any content wiki until at least October 2023 and is unlikely to be deployed to the English Wikipedia until some time in 2024.

Arbitration

The arbitration case World War II and the history of Jews in Poland has been closed. The topic area of Polish history during World War II (1933-1945) and the history of Jews in Poland is subject to a "reliable source consensus-required" contentious topic restriction.

Hello! Voting in the 2023 Arbitration Committee elections is now open until 23:59 (UTC) on Monday, 11 December 2023. All eligible users are allowed to vote. Users with alternate accounts may only vote once.

The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to impose binding solutions to disputes between editors, primarily for serious conduct disputes the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the authority to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail.

If you wish to participate in the 2023 election, please review the candidates and submit your choices on the voting page. If you no longer wish to receive these messages, you may add {{NoACEMM}} to your user talk page. MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 00:53, 28 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Guideline and policy news

Following a talk page discussion, the Administrators' accountability policy has been updated to note that while it is considered best practice for administrators to have notifications (pings) enabled, this is not mandatory. Administrators who do not use notifications are now strongly encouraged to indicate this on their user page.

Arbitration

Following a motion, the Extended Confirmed Restriction has been amended, removing the allowance for non-extended-confirmed editors to post constructive comments on the "Talk:" namespace. Now, non-extended-confirmed editors may use the "Talk:" namespace solely to make edit requests related to articles within the topic area, provided that their actions are not disruptive.
The Arbitration Committee has announced a call for Checkusers and Oversighters, stating that it will currently be accepting applications for CheckUser and/or Oversight permissions at any point in the year.
Eligible users are invited to vote on candidates for the Arbitration Committee until 23:59 December 11, 2023 (UTC). Candidate statements can be seen here.
