Disambiguation link notification for October 10
Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Chris Connelly (musician), you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Irish. Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.
You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.
A tag has been placed on Mike Textbeak requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a person or group of people, 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. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please read more about 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 "Click here to 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 removed 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.

Re:Welsh
Hello, Susangrigg1. I think you've confused one thing about Garfield's ancestors. The ones from Chester wasn't Chester in England, it was a place in Wales called Chester (perhaps a small village.) Although he was mostly English descent (although I have never heard of any English person today with the name Garfield, only ones whose Jewish ancestors changed it when they came here, as is the case with the guy from Amazing Spiderman) he did have a significant amount of Welsh ancestry, which could have been where he got his "Red Irish" look his mother talked of. In fact Garfield had more Welsh blood in him than any other US president, other than perhaps John Adams. As I'm relatively new to Wikipedia I can't site or make references to things on pages yet. I would recommend you have a good look on the internet for the Welsh blood of Garfield, which many reliable sites will confirm. I am not going to bother with editing the page again to include Garfield as one of the seven at least presidents or his picture in the box, because Im sure you'll just edit it back to not having him there and having Harold Lloyd there instead (someone whose Welsh ancestry really can't be proven). I understand that given "you don't have proof" you wouldn't want it on the page, what I don't understand is why you can't find any reliable sources to back this up? Especially when anybody else could.
I have just searched and immediately discovered a confirmation of this ancestry: go to the James A. Garfield page on Nations Wiki, section Early life reads "Garfield was born of Welsh ancestry". So please have a look at it and the reliable sources on Nations Wiki that are given and then tell me he wasn't Welsh. Let's do another one - Welsh Genealogy By Bruce Durie on Google Books, "Presidents with Welsh ancestry include Thomas Jefferson, Abraham Lincoln, John Adams, John Quincy Adams, James Garfield, Calvin Coolidge, Richard Nixon and Barack Obama, not to mention Confederate President Jefferson Davis and Vice President Hubert Humphrey." And one more, the rest you can find on your own - The works of James Abram Garfield. (2 Volumes) Volume 1 By Garfield, James A. on Google Books, "From the meagre materials at our command, it appears that he was of Welsh descent on his father's side; though his ancestors resided for some time in England before they crossed the sea."--Emperorofthedaleks (talk) 01:03, 22 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Well Susangrigg1 for one I am not upset, I just don't think it makes sense that an American President with Welsh ancestry shouldn't be included on page about Welsh Americans? Yeah fair enough about Harold Lloyd, but he wasn't President of the United States. I too have been to North Wales many times, although I am not sure of where his ancestors came from in Wales, the websites I've mentioned back it up that he was of Welsh descent. But anyway how can there be hard feelings? It's only editing a page.--Emperorofthedaleks (talk) 17:14, 22 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Well Susangrigg1 as you can see from the conversation on my talk page, me and User:Middayexpress have already discussed making a collage image for the page, I'd be very grateful for your input, thank you. I based the people in the image on the ones in the Scottish American page, but there are a lot more famous Scottish Americans (or people who claim to be Scottish American) in the United States than famous Welsh Americans. The images for some of these don't exist, but we have well enough to use in the collage. On my page you can see which files I recommended to Middayexpress, now I think he may have started to make the image, including Garfield (but trust me he was a Welsh American, if I didn't know of reliable sources to confirm this there's no way I'd let him be on that page.) I don't mind Harold Lloyd being in the collage as he was of Welsh descent and notable. I've made sure we have some modern Welsh Americans, Patricia Arquette, Juliet Lewis, and Thomas Dekker (actor). One who I believe should be in the image is Robert Vaughn (Montana), the Scottish Americans have John Muir in his place (though he's not featured in there collage image.) I appreciate your care for the article, thank you. Best regards--Emperorofthedaleks (talk) 18:01, 22 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]
You reverted the deletion I made on the bio page of Lorin Morgan-Richards but the defects in citation have not been corrected and the factual statements I deleted still have no supporting citations. Can you tell me on what basis you have reverted the deletion? I have posted this same statement on the talk page and discussion should continue there.
Thank you very much,

The Arbitration Committee has authorised discretionary sanctions to be used for pages regarding all edits about, and all pages related to post-1932 politics of the United States and closely related people, a topic which you have edited. The Committee's decision is here.
Discretionary sanctions is a system of conduct regulation designed to minimize disruption to controversial topics. This means uninvolved administrators can impose sanctions for edits relating to the topic that do not adhere to the purpose of Wikipedia, our standards of behavior, or relevant policies. Administrators may impose sanctions such as editing restrictions, bans, or blocks. This message is to notify you that sanctions are authorised for the topic you are editing. Before continuing to edit this topic, please familiarise yourself with the discretionary sanctions system. Don't hesitate to contact me or another editor if you have any questions.
Fails to meet to basic listed in WP:BKCRIT. Trivial citations. Plenty of Google results, but only to blogs and bookshops. No in-depth coverage by independent sources. Looks a lovely book, but we need more than that for a Wikipedia article.
You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.
Hi Susangrigg1. I noticed that you used celebritynetworth.com as a source for information in a biography article, Manny Stul. Please note that the general consensus as expressed at WP:RSN is that celebritynetworth.com does not meet the reliable sourcing criteria for the inclusion of personal information in such articles. If you disagree, let's discuss it. Thanks.--Ronz (talk) 00:22, 2 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
I wanted to let you know that I deleted the image you uploaded to . The image was claimed on Flickr to be released under a free license, but I found the image at [1] and it's likely that the license information on Flickr is incorrect.

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Bonnie Vent, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Channeling (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.)
Thanks for creating Marvin Townsend! I edit here too, under the username Doomsdayer520 and it's nice to meet you :-)
I wanted to let you know that I have tagged the page as having some issues to fix, as a part of our page curation process and note that:-
Thanks for your new article on Marvin Townsend. I recommend some more sources that discuss his work in a professional fashion, and if those exist they could be mined for more content.
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 prepend it with {{Re|Doomsdayer520}}. And, don't forget to sign your reply with ~~~~ . For broader editing help, please visit the Teahouse.
Delivered via the Page Curation tool, on behalf of the reviewer.
Hi. I have reverted your edit to Welles Crowther, because it was not accompanied by a citation of a reliable source. As I'm sure you must know, having edited here since 2014, Wikipedia cannot accept uncited material. Wikipedia requires that the material in its articles be accompanied by reliable, verifiable (usually secondary) sources explicitly cited in the article text in the form of an inline citation. If you want to restore that material, please do so only if it's accompanied by the proper citation. Thanks. Nightscream (talk) 04:21, 30 May 2019 (UTC)

If you can get me some third-party evidence of notability from a reliable source - for instance, reviews that aren't from Amazon or Goodreads or Some Random Person's Blog, or coverage that's not in a crowdsourced database - I'll be fine with putting the draft back in mainspace.
