Your draft article, Draft:Council of Five

Hello, Richard75. It has been over six months since you last edited the Articles for Creation submission or Draft page you started, "Council of Five".

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 edit the submission and remove the {{db-afc}}, {{db-draft}}, 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.

Thanks for your submission to Wikipedia, and happy editing. HasteurBot (talk) 16:01, 25 January 2018 (UTC)

Orphaned non-free image File:EMJudge.jpg

⚠

Thanks for uploading File:EMJudge.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. ShakespeareFan00 (talk) 21:54, 22 March 2018 (UTC)

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Rogue Trooper, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Diceman (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar 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) 09:45, 26 March 2018 (UTC)

False accusations in edit summaries

Hello, Richard75. Please don't make false accusations in edit summaries, as you did here. I pointed out that a source for the information you removed might exist. I "made up" nothing. FreeKnowledgeCreator (talk) 00:12, 30 May 2018 (UTC)

Ok I apologise. (But for future reference it's best to find a source for info when you add it, rather than guessing that a source cited for a different fact might also support the new one.) Richard75 (talk) 07:55, 30 May 2018 (UTC)

FYI

Concerning your rejection of a reliable source I used in a recent edit to Presidential Succession Act because, as you said, "I can't see the quotes passage there", (even though in my edit summary I had written, "Added quote, as full document, including section citation is from requires registration") please note what's stated in Verifiability § Access to sources – "Do not reject reliable sources just because they are difficult or costly to access." Some reliable sources, like those from CQ Researcher, are just not easily accessible. (The same is true for JSTOR and even Google Books at times) Drdpw (talk) 21:29, 14 July 2018 (UTC)

Titan (book)

Hi Richard75, you made Titan (book) into a disambiguation page. Wouldn't it be better to make it an incomplete disambiguation redirect to Titan#Literature rather than trying to keep the list updated on both pages? Leschnei (talk) 13:12, 10 August 2018 (UTC)

Yes it would, I'll do that. Richard75 (talk) 15:33, 10 August 2018 (UTC)

An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Eagle Award (comics), you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page John Byrne (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver).

Hi, I'm RonBot, a script that checks new non-free file uploads. I have found that the subject image that you recently uploaded was more than 5% in excess of the Non-free content guideline size of 100,000 pixels. I have tagged the image for a standard reduction, which (for jpg/gif/png/svg files) normally happens within a day. Please check the reduced image, and make sure that the image is not excessively corrupted. Other files will be added to Category:Wikipedia non-free file size reduction requests for manual processing. There is a full seven-day period before the original oversized image will be hidden; during that time you might want to consider editing the original image yourself (perhaps an initial crop to allow a smaller reduction or none at all). A formula for calculation the desired size can be found at WP:Image resolution, along with instructions on how to tag the image in the rare cases that it requires an oversized image (typically about 0.2% of non-free uploads are tagged as necessarily oversized). Please contact the bot owner if you have any questions, or you can ask them at Wikipedia talk:Non-free content. RonBot (talk) 17:37, 14 October 2018 (UTC)
