Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Morocco, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Sahrawi. 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.)

Although everyone is welcome to contribute to Wikipedia, introducing inappropriate pages, such as Draft:List of prime ministers of India, is considered vandalism and is prohibited. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. Repeated vandalism may result in the loss of editing privileges. Under section G3 of the criteria for speedy deletion, the page has been nominated for deletion.

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. — DaxServer (t · m · c) 12:04, 20 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Creating copies of articles

[edit]

Please stop creating copies of articles, whether as further articles, as user space pages as drafts, or on any other form. Any changes which you think will benefit an article should be made in that article, not in another copy of it, making it difficult for editors to keep track of changes.

Hello, I'm Mako001. I noticed that you made an edit to a biography of a living person, Ibrahim Traore, but you didn't support your changes with a citation to a reliable source. Wikipedia has a strict policy concerning how we write about living people, so please help us keep such articles accurate. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. Mako001 (C)  (T)  🇺🇦 03:12, 2 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

You are very, very close to being sent off to WP:ANI and a block requested, as you seem to lack the necessary competence to edit an encyclopedia without leaving a trail of disruption behind. Mako001 (C)  (T)  🇺🇦 03:16, 2 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, I'm Adakiko. I noticed that in this edit to List of presidents of Bangladesh, you removed content without adequately explaining why. In the future, it would be helpful to others if you described your changes to Wikipedia with an edit summary. If this was a mistake, don't worry, the removed content has been restored. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. Adakiko (talk) 14:33, 18 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Please do not remove content or templates from pages on Wikipedia, as you did with this edit to List of presidents of Bangladesh, without giving a valid reason for the removal in the edit summary. Your content removal does not appear constructive and has been reverted. Please make use of the sandbox if you would like to experiment with test edits. Thank you.

This is a message to let you know that one or more of your recent contributions, such as the edit(s) you made to List of heads of state of Nigeria, did not appear to be constructive and have been reverted.

You can find information about these at our welcome page which also provides further information about contributing constructively to this encyclopedia.

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on Vice President of Myanmar. This means that you are repeatedly changing content back to how you think it should be although other editors disagree. Users are expected to collaborate with others, to avoid editing disruptively, and to try to reach a consensus, rather than repeatedly undoing other users' edits once it is known that there is a disagreement.

Points to note:

  1. Edit warring is disruptive regardless of how many reverts you have made;
  2. Do not edit war even if you believe you are right.

If you find yourself in an editing dispute, use the article's talk page to discuss controversial changes and work towards a version that represents consensus among editors. You can post a request for help at an appropriate noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, it may be appropriate to request temporary page protection. If you engage in an edit war, you may be blocked from editing. 25stargeneral (talk) 04:02, 8 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Stop icon You may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you add unsourced or poorly sourced material to Wikipedia, as you did at Guinea-Bissau. Celia Homeford (talk) 11:48, 8 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Please do not create, maintain or restore hoaxes on Wikipedia, as you did at United States of Central Asia. If you are interested to know how accurate Wikipedia is, a more constructive test method would be to try to find inaccurate statements already in Wikipedia – and, if possible, correct them. Please do not disrupt Wikipedia. Continued disruption will be met with sanctions, which could include a block from editing. Feel free to take a look at the five pillars of Wikipedia to learn more about this project and how you can contribute constructively. Thank you.

Ways to improve Nigeria Independence Act 1960

[edit]

Hello, Setswana,

Thank you for creating Nigeria Independence Act 1960.

I have tagged the page as having some issues to fix, as a part of our page curation process and note that:

Thus article does not discuss the Independence Act but a range of related topics, all of which are already covered in other articles. Please rewrite to focus on the Act itself.

The tags can be removed by you or another editor once the issues they mention are addressed. If you have questions, leave a comment here and begin it with {{Re|Mccapra}}. Remember to sign your reply with ~~~~. For broader editing help, please visit the Teahouse.

Delivered via the Page Curation tool, on behalf of the reviewer.

Your contributed article, Nigeria Independence Act 1960

[edit]

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, Nigeria Independence Act 1960. 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 – Independence Day (Nigeria). 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 Independence Day (Nigeria). If you have new information to add, you might want to discuss it at the article's talk page.

If you think the article you created should remain separate, 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. 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. Celia Homeford (talk) 13:14, 5 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

President of Zambia

[edit]

Why did you move the President of Zambia article and then recreated it? Now we have a duplicate of the article at List of heads of state of Zambia as well. I have made the request at WP:RM for this to be undone. The C of E God Save the King! (talk) 14:58, 7 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]
