User talk:SmashingThreePlates

Welcome!

Hello, SmashingThreePlates, and welcome to Wikipedia! I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Unfortunately, one or more of the pages you created, such as Souraya Fas, may not conform to some of Wikipedia's content policies and may not be retained. In short, the topic of an article must be notable and have already been the subject of publication by reliable and independent sources.

Please review Your first article for an overview of the article creation process. The Article Wizard is available to help you create an article, where it will be reviewed and considered for publication. For information on how to request a new article that can be created by someone else, see Requested articles. If you are stuck, come to the Teahouse, where experienced Wikipedians can help you through the processes.

Speedy deletion nomination of Souraya Fas

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.

A tag has been placed on Souraya Fas, requesting that it be deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under two or more of the criteria for speedy deletion, by which pages can be deleted at any time, without discussion. If the page meets any of these strictly-defined criteria, then it may soon be deleted by an administrator. The reasons it has been tagged are:

It is an article with no content whatsoever, or whose contents consist only of external links, a "See also" section, book references, category tags, template tags, interwiki links, a rephrasing of the title, or an attempt to contact the subject of the article. (See section A3 of the criteria for speedy deletion.) Wikipedia has standards for the minimum necessary information to be included in short articles; you can see these at Wikipedia:Stub. Also please note that articles must be on notable subjects and should provide references to reliable sources that verify their content.
It appears to be about a person, organization (band, club, company, etc.), individual animal, or web content, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. (See section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion.) Such articles may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable.

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.

Hi SmashingThreePlates. I think might this possibly be typo. Did you mean to write "Souraya Faas"? Pete AU aka --Shirt58 (talk) 10:45, 12 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Souraya Fas moved to draftspace

An article you recently created, Souraya Fas, 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.

2024 Mexican General Election moved to draftspace

Your submission at Articles for creation: 2024 Mexican General Election (February 15)

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

There is no draft article and no references. It may be WP:TOOSOON for an article on this topic.

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 when they have been resolved.

If you would like to continue working on the submission, go to Draft:2024 Mexican General Election 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:2024 Mexican General Election, 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 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.

Hello, I'm Tartan357. I noticed that you added or changed content in an article, 2024 United States presidential election, but you didn't provide a reliable source. It's been removed and archived in the page history for now, but if you'd like to include a citation and re-add it, please do so. You can have a look at the tutorial on citing sources. If you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. ― Tartan357 ^Talk 16:54, 14 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

May 2021

Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Wikipedia, as you did at Jacinda Ardern. Your edits appear to be disruptive and have been or will be reverted.

If you are engaged in an article content dispute with another editor, please discuss the matter with the editor at their talk page, or the article's talk page, and seek consensus with them. Alternatively, you can read Wikipedia's dispute resolution page, and ask for independent help at one of the relevant noticeboards.
If you are engaged in any other form of dispute that is not covered on the dispute resolution page, please seek assistance at Wikipedia's Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents.

Please ensure you are familiar with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines, and please do not continue to make edits that appear disruptive. Continued disruptive editing may result in loss of editing privileges. Thank you.-gadfium 04:33, 28 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Why you do undo my edit?

The information was entirely accurate and I provided my source for it. And you just undid it for no reason cited. So please explain why you undid my revision. Respectfully. SmashingThreePlates (talk) 01:18, 30 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

It wasn't me who undid your edit to Nikki Haley, but the source you used, The Daily Beast, is of borderline acceptability (see WP:DAILYBEAST), and you are using it for an obviously controversial topic. If you cannot find a more respected source, perhaps this incident and her denial do not need to be in the article.-gadfium 01:32, 30 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Update: I cited a different news source to the article—that being CNN. SmashingThreePlates (talk) 01:46, 30 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Introduction to contentious topics

You have recently edited a page related to post-1992 politics of the United States and closely related people, a topic designated as contentious. This is a brief introduction to contentious topics and does not imply that there are any issues with your editing.

A special set of rules applies to certain topic areas, which are referred to as contentious topics. These are specially designated topics that tend to attract more persistent disruptive editing than the rest of the project and have been designated as contentious topics by the Arbitration Committee. When editing a contentious topic, Wikipedia’s norms and policies are more strictly enforced, and Wikipedia administrators have special powers in order to reduce disruption to the project.

Within contentious topics, editors should edit carefully and constructively, refrain from disrupting the encyclopedia, and:

adhere to the purposes of Wikipedia;
comply with all applicable policies and guidelines;
follow editorial and behavioural best practice;
comply with any page restrictions in force within the area of conflict; and
refrain from gaming the system.

Editors are advised to err on the side of caution if unsure whether making a particular edit is consistent with these expectations. If you have any questions about contentious topics procedures you may ask them at the arbitration clerks' noticeboard or you may learn more about this contentious topic here. You may also choose to note which contentious topics you know about by using the {{Ctopics/aware}} template.

You have recently made edits related to articles about living or recently deceased people, and edits relating to the subject (living or recently deceased) of such biographical articles. This is a standard message to inform you that articles about living or recently deceased people, and edits relating to the subject (living or recently deceased) of such biographical articles is a designated contentious topic. This message does not imply that there are any issues with your editing. For more information about the contentious topics system, please see Wikipedia:Contentious topics.

Speedy deletion nomination of Hung Cao

Hello SmashingThreePlates,

I wanted to let you know that I just tagged Hung Cao for deletion, because it seems to be copied from another source, probably infringing copyright.

If you feel that the article shouldn't be deleted and want more time to rewrite it in your own words, you can contest this deletion, but don't remove the speedy deletion tag from the top.

You can leave a note on my talk page if you have questions. Thanks!

Laken Riley

I noticed you moved the page "Killing of Laken Riley" to "Murder of Laken Riley". This is a violation of Wikipedia:Naming_conventions_(violence_and_deaths). There has not been a murder conviction so we cannot call it "murder". Please review that and then move the page back to "Killing of Laken Riley". If you would like to discuss further, there is a discussion about the article's language on the Talk page. Thank you. Gottagotospace (talk) 12:50, 26 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

It literally is a murder, simply based on the intent. You look at “Attack Type” and then it says “Murder by blunt trauma, kidnapping”—keyword: “Murder”. SmashingThreePlates (talk) 13:31, 26 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited 2024 United States Senate election in Montana, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Tim Sheehy. 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.)

Speedy deletion nomination of Hung Cao

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.

A tag has been placed on Hung Cao requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G4 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page appears to be a repost of material that was previously deleted following a deletion discussion, at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Hung Cao. When a page has substantially identical content to that of a page deleted after a discussion, and any changes in the content do not address the reasons for which the material was previously deleted, it 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.

Hung Cao, again

Hi, please work on one of the multiple drafts if you want to write the article step-by-step, instead of drafting it in mainspace. As it has already been deleted through AfD, you will need to bring new sources showing notability if you want the article to stay in mainspace. Chaotic Enby (talk · contribs) 06:00, 30 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Links to draft articles

Please do not introduce links in actual articles to draft articles, as you did to 2024 United States Senate election in Virginia. Since a draft is not yet ready for the main article space, it is not in shape for ordinary readers, and links from articles should not go to a draft. Such links are contrary to the Manual of Style. These links have been removed. Thank you. - Arjayay (talk) 21:02, 30 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

You guys put it in the draft. So maybe can you remove it from the draft? Since there is content in it? SmashingThreePlates (talk) 21:56, 30 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Given the outcome of the previous AfD, I think it is a wiser decision to keep it in draftspace and publish it through AfC instead. Chaotic Enby (talk · contribs) 22:12, 30 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Nomination of Hung Cao for deletion

A discussion is taking place as to whether the article Hung Cao is suitable for inclusion in Wikipedia according to Wikipedia's policies and guidelines or whether it should be deleted.

The article will be discussed at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Hung Cao (2nd nomination) until a consensus is reached, and anyone, including you, is welcome to contribute to the discussion. The nomination will explain the policies and guidelines which are of concern. The discussion focuses on high-quality evidence and our policies and guidelines.

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 until the discussion has finished.

Eric Hovde

There was a deletion discussion at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Eric Hovde that Liz ended as redirect. The reason behind this is because Hovde wasn't noted enough at the time to justify an article. There may have been some canvassing that complicated the interpretation of the AfD results, but there was a bit of room for Hovdes' notability status to change...but, in my opinion, that's yet to happen. Let's be cautious wait until after the election. I dream of horses (Hoofprints) (Neigh at me) 03:25, 24 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Stop Reverting My Edits!

They follow all Wikipedia rules. And he is literally a Senate nominee, so he gets his own his Wikipedia page. SmashingThreePlates (talk) 03:26, 24 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Actually, uploading articles about living people that are as poorly sourced as yours are is against biographies of living people policy. Basically, it exposes Hovde to defamation if someone can write a blog post talking about how much they dislike the guy (blogs typically don't undergo editorial review), and cite it just as you're citing the VoteSmart website (which also doesn't undergo editorial review). I doubt he'd appreciate that much. I dream of horses (Hoofprints) (Neigh at me) 03:37, 24 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

But this is not a defamation article, and none of the sources I took are defaming his character. I even got some of the information off his own website. I request that you stop deleting the page. Plus I was going to add more references, but I needed to make sure that I had the page saved first.
