Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Sergey Izgiyaev, you added links pointing to the disambiguation pages Azerbaijani and Avar (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). 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.

A tag has been placed on Category:Anatoly Yagudaev requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section C1 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the category has been empty for seven days or more and is not a disambiguation category, a category redirect, a featured topics category, under discussion at Categories for discussion, or a project category that by its nature may become empty on occasion.

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. Liz Read!

Creating categories

[edit]

When you create a new category, before you decide on its name, please explore the parent categories of similar pages to see what naming conventions are used.

Please only create a category when there is sufficient content to make it useful.

Please also put the category into multiple parents according to what topics intersect in the new category, e.g. Category:Poets from Derbent belongs in Category:Writers from Derbent as well as Category:Poets from Dagestan. – Fayenatic London 11:06, 25 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

[edit]

Hello, Boxes12,

I think it would be very helpful for you to participate in deletion discussions, like at Categories for Discussion, for pages you create so you can see what problems are emerging with your page creation. It would help you from repeating these mistakes in the future. I'm sure you want to improve as an editor so these discussions would be beneficial in understanding more about Wikipedia's standards for titling a page.

If you have questions about page creations, titling pages or deletion discussions, I encourage you to bring them to the Teahouse where you can receive advice and support. Thank you. Liz Read! Talk! 22:42, 27 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

An article you recently created, Cathedral of St. George the Victorious of Derbent, is not suitable as written to remain published. It needs more 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. ~StyyxTalk? 21:50, 14 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Cathedral of St. George the Victorious of Derbent, which you submitted to Articles for creation, has been created.

Congratulations, and thank you for helping expand the scope of Wikipedia! We hope you will continue making quality contributions.

Since you have made at least 10 edits over more than four days, you can now create articles yourself without posting a request. However, you may continue submitting work to Articles for creation if you prefer.

If you have any questions, you are welcome to ask at the help desk. Once you have made at least 10 edits and had an account for at least four days, you will have the option to create articles yourself without posting a request to Articles for creation.

If you would like to help us improve this process, please consider leaving us some feedback.

Thanks again, and happy editing!

Hi Boxes12. Thank you for your work on Cathedral of Our Lady of the Sign (Khasavyurt). Another editor, Rosiestep, has reviewed it as part of new pages patrol and left the following comment:

Hello, and thank for created this interesting article about a Russian cathedral; I love reading about beautiful architecture. I have marked the article as reviewed. When I looked at the article's edit history, though, I noticed that you wrote this Edit Summary: (w:Знаменский собор (Хасавюрт) (14 May 2024 08:05 UTC) (version=137799134)) (Translation)). Ergo, a friendly FYI: in order to comply with English Wikipedia's attribution requirements, the Edit Summary should follow the format described here: WP:HOWTRANS. You would be in compliance if you make a null edit to that article now with the appropriately worded Edit Summary. Thanks again!
