Control copyright icon Hello IP0W3RSH3LLi, and welcome to Wikipedia. All or some of your addition(s) to Stephen S.

While we appreciate your contributions to Wikipedia, there are certain things you must keep in mind about using information from sources to avoid copyright and plagiarism issues here.

It's very important that contributors understand and follow these practices, as policy requires that people who persistently do not must be blocked from editing.

Nomination for deletion[edit]

Hi IP0W3RSH3LLi: Welcome to Wikipedia. I'm sure that what you did was not intentional, but you nominated my new page creation for speedy deletion based on WP:BLPPROD. If you read the standard, this can apply to a biography of a living person which has no citations to reliable sources. The article I created, John M. Allen (soldier), is a biography for a person who died in 1847. The article cited a reliable source. I can also see that you are using the Twinkle gadget to nominate several other articles for speedy deletion. Though unintentional, nominating articles for speedy deletion without attempting to understand the underlying policies is disruptive. I am notifying an administrator. In the meantime, please use the WP:Teahouse for questions about editing. Thank you, Oldsanfelipe (talk) 00:37, 15 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]

@Oldsanfelipe:I don't think adminstrative actions are active, I misunderstood that the subject as not alive and not subject to BLP, I apologise and my editd is reverted, isn't that enough? Thanks. --IP0W3RSH3LLi (talk) 09:16, 15 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Hi IP0W3RSH3LLi: Thank you for understanding why I reverted your edit. No, I do not think that's enough. First, you have made a handful of nominations for speedy deletion which indicate that you don't understand the policies. Second, the Twinkle documentation includes the following warning, "Note: Never forget that you take full responsibility for any action performed using Twinkle. You must understand Wikipedia policies and use this tool within these policies, or risk being blocked." I reproduced the original formatting of the statement, so the bold is in the original text. Twinkle for a new editor is like handing over the keys of a sports car to a new driver. At this point, you would help yourself by disabling Twinkle and learning the core content policies, for example. There are tools for new editors, such as your sandbox and WP:Teahouse. In general, Wikipedia is very forgiving of mistakes, especially regarding new editors. You can learn how to edit incrementally. On the other hand, the use of Twinkle assumes that you understand the guidelines and policies. Please let me know if you have any questions. Oldsanfelipe (talk) 11:31, 15 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Your draft article, Draft:Janell Carroll[edit]

Hello, IP0W3RSH3LLi. It has been over six months since you last edited the Articles for Creation submission or Draft page you started, "Janell Carroll".

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. DannyS712 (talk) 09:18, 1 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
