This is Tikuko's talk page, where you can send messages and comments to Tikuko.
My archive is here Don't worry about leaving Talkback templates, because I will watch your talk page for a few weeks if I posted there I don't care about declined speedies and PRODs unless you're declining it because I messed up or you think I might be interested in making a case at AfD. I am not an administrator and I did not delete your page. If you need to speak to one, perhaps about said deleted page, may I suggest Salvidrim! or DGG - I've had good experiences with both of them in the past.

This user talk page might be watched by friendly talk page stalkers, which means that someone other than me might reply to your query. Their input is welcome and their help with messages that I cannot reply to quickly is appreciated.

Please STOP

Do you seriously think that leaving over 200 virtually identical template notices on a user's talk page is a good idea? I guess User:BD2412 is too polite to complain to you, but I am not. All these edits are flooding my watchlist. --R'n'B (call me Russ) 02:30, 9 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Didn't notice they were all going to the same user. Apologies. --TKK! bark with me! 02:33, 9 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

For the record, I created these draft stubs because they have articles in other language Wikipedias and notified the relevant Wikiproject. I have no particular interest in working on any of them myself. I think two or three were picked up by people working on those projects and made into articles. It is of no concern to me whether they stay or go. bd2412 T 02:37, 9 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Again, apologies for the spam - I don't think I've ever had that happen before! --TKK! bark with me! 02:43, 9 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

The notifications are created by Twinkle so the spam can't be helped. I'm sure any editor creating dozens of drafts realizes the notifications may all arrive at the same time, as it had in this case. I'm glad we have editors at AfC working the backlog. Chris Troutman (talk) 02:49, 9 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

I was aware of that risk, yes. I really had hoped that these drafts would get picked up, though. bd2412 T 02:58, 9 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Wow, somebody nuked my watchlist. ~Awilley (talk) 06:54, 9 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

The spam can be helped. The person using a tool is responsible for how they use it. As a bot operator, I've been reminded of that myself many times. --R'n'B (call me Russ) 16:06, 9 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

@R'n'B: I don't disagree about editor responsibility, but please show me where in Twinkle's settings the automatic notifications can be cancelled. Do you otherwise suggest Tikuko shouldn't be allowed to use Twinkle? Chris Troutman (talk) 21:44, 9 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

There is a setting; the issue is primarily I didn't realize I had templated the same person 200 times in a row because I have never seen a situation where someone had that many one-line articles in the draft space. I had assumed they were spam and wasn't paying that much attention the username in the "working..." message that generates after you've hit the go button. --TKK! bark with me! 21:51, 9 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

About My Draft

Hi Tiuko, thanks for your message about my draft . When i first created "TDLWH" article in my draft, i was very new to Wikipedia, and i thought that i can write anything i want in my draft, but after i read the policies and the terms, i found that my thoughts are wrong .

Draft:Dobwalls Football Club

Hello. Just wondering why you deferred the speedy deletion on this article? It doesn't meet the generally agreed notability criteria for football clubs and would almost certainly be deleted if it were moved to article space (I watchlisted it just in case it was so that I could prod/AfD it). Cheers, Number 5 7 20:17, 24 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, I googled noticed that it appeared that it was in the same league as Liskeard Athletic F.C., which further lead me to believe there may be coverage of it that I wasn't easily seeing/finding because of google geographically filtering its results. I presumed that league was equivalent to something like this American football league so the teams in it would have fairly equivalent coverage to each other, similarly to the AFC teams. I'm sure if you G13'd it any and left a link to this conversation it would still qualify. Chalk it up to me being an ignorant yank :) --TKK! bark with me! 20:25, 24 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

No probs. Liskeard are only notable as they've played at a higher level in the past. Cheers and have a good Christmas! Number 5 7
