Speedy deletion of Matron Head Modified

A tag has been placed on Matron Head Modified requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A1 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is a very short article providing little or no context to the reader.

Also please note that articles must be on notable subjects and should provide references to reliable sources that verify their content.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the article does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that a copy be emailed to you. Call me Bubba (talk) 04:55, 14 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

large cents

Hi, I came across Braided Hair while Stub-sorting, and turned it into a redirect to the article at Large cent (United States coin) because that had much more info. Then found another couple and have suggested merges. Haven't gone through the whole lot, but you might like to consider either adding your extra info to the existing Large cent page, with plenty of redirects from the names of particular designs, or making your articles much more substantial and then adding a link from the Large cent article to each of them, at the point where there's the section on the specific design (template {{main}} is the one to use, I think). What we don't want is the situation where someone searching on a topic only finds part of the info which Wikipedia can offer, because it's split between two articles which don't link to each other.

Articles for deletion nomination of Miners Union Cemetery

I have nominated Miners Union Cemetery, an article that you created, for deletion. I do not think that this article satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and have explained why at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Miners Union Cemetery. Your opinions on the matter are welcome at that same discussion page; also, you are welcome to edit the article to address these concerns. Thank you for your time.

Citations and notes

Just a word to the wise. When you add a note to an article as you did on 7 August 2009 to the Millard Fillmore article, please refrain from placing it in the middle of another citation. Each note or citation should stand independently, with its own <ref> and </ref>. Your resultant your looked like this:

1. ^ {{cite web The original was demolished in 1852, but in 1965, the Millard Fillmore Memorial Association, using materials from a similar cabin, constructed a replica, which is located in Fillmore Glen State Park in Moravia. |url=http://encarta.msn.com/encyclopedia_761569065/Fillmore_Millard.html |title=Millard Fillmore |booktitle =Encarta}}

When the two footnotes should have looked like this:

1. ^ "Millard Fillmore" Encarata

2. ^ The original log cabin was demolished in 1852, but in 1965, the Millard Fillmore Memorial Association, using materials from a similar cabin, constructed a replica, which is located in Fillmore Glen State Park in Moravia.

It is also appropriate when adding new information to an article to provide a citation to a reliable source. That might have made your note look like this:

2. ^ The original log cabin was demolished in 1852, but in 1965, the Millard Fillmore Memorial Association, using materials from a similar cabin, constructed a replica, which is located in Fillmore Glen State Park in Moravia. "Millard Fillmore Log Cabin" American Presidents Life Portraits

Of course, that source does not completely source the statement that you added and it can be improved by finding a better source. --Bejnar (talk) 13:40, 15 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

A tag has been placed on Frank Robert Pierce requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia.

Fair use rationale for File:Bishop Gibbons.jpeg

Thanks for uploading or contributing to File:Bishop Gibbons.jpeg. I notice the file page specifies that the file is being used under fair use but there is not a suitable explanation or rationale as to why each specific use in Wikipedia constitutes fair use. Please go to the file description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'file' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "File" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free media lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Sfan00 IMG (talk) 16:45, 19 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

File copyright problem with File:Bishop Gibbons.jpeg

Thank you for uploading File:Bishop Gibbons.jpeg. However, it currently is missing information on its copyright status. Wikipedia takes copyright very seriously. It may be deleted soon, unless we can determine the license and the source of the file. If you know this information, then you can add a copyright tag to the image description page.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their license and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following this link.

If you have any questions, please feel free to ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thanks again for your cooperation. Sfan00 IMG (talk) 21:05, 19 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

February 2010

Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute to the encyclopedia, one or more of the external links you added to the page Who Wants to Be a Millionaire (US game show) do not comply with our guidelines for external links and have been removed. Wikipedia is not a collection of links; nor should it be used as a platform for advertising or promotion, and doing so is contrary to the goals of this project. Because Wikipedia uses nofollow tags, external links do not alter search engine rankings. If you feel the link should be added to the article, please discuss it on the article's talk page before reinserting it. Please take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Thank you. GSK (talk ● evidence) 01:34, 14 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy deletion nomination of Dean's Cove Boat Launch

A tag has been placed on Dean's Cove Boat Launch, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page seems to be unambiguous advertising which only promotes a company, product, group, service or person and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become an encyclopedia article. Please read the guidelines on spam as well as Wikipedia:FAQ/Business for more information. You may also wish to consider using a Wizard to help you create articles - see the Article Wizard.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay.

Speedy deletion nomination of Letitia Tyler Semple

You may also wish to consider using a Wizard to help you create articles. See the Article Wizard.

Thank you.

A tag has been placed on Letitia Tyler Semple requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done because the article, which appears to be about a real person, individual animal(s), an organization (band, club, company, etc.), or web content, does not indicate how or why the subject is notable: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not indicate the subject's importance or significance may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable. If this is the first page that you have created, then you should read the guide to writing your first article.

If you think that you can assert the notability of the subject, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the article (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the article's talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would confirm the subject's notability under Wikipedia guidelines.

For guidelines on specific types of articles, you may want to check out our criteria for biographies, for web sites, for bands, or for companies. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. &dorno rocks. (talk) 23:29, 14 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Proposed deletion of Alice Tyler

The article Alice Tyler has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Speedy was denied (with no explanations). This woman is related to some notable people, but no invormation on her individual notability was given.

While all contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{dated prod}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. The speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.

You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

Speedy deletion nomination of File:Dickclark2008.jpeg

A tag has been placed on File:Dickclark2008.jpeg requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia.

Reference Formatting

I noticed you're adding a lot of references to the Who Wants to Be a Millionaire (US game show), some of them duplicate references to the same source. You should take a few moments to read through Help:Footnotes, specifically the section about Multiple citations of the same reference or footnote. Also, you should familiarize yourself with the Cite web template – it's used to format the citation of a website (that includes an access date, title, publish date, etc.) you're using for reference rather than just having the webpage url appear in the References section of the article. Sottolacqua (talk) 20:32, 12 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Again, please take a moment to read through the guidelines for reference formatting. Using the citeweb template when including new references and naming the actual references are paramount to keeping articles organized and free of unnecessary repetition.

Nomination of Benjamin Pierce (1841–1853) for deletion

Suggestion for WikiProject United States to support WikiProject US Presidents

Greetings, It was recently suggested that WikiProject US Presidents might be inactive or semiactive and it might be beneficial to include it in the list of projects supported by WikiProject United States. I have started a discussion on the projects talk page soliciting the opinions of the members of the project if this project would be interested in being supported by WikiProject United States. Please feel free to comment on your opinions about this suggestion. --Kumioko (talk) 13:14, 21 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Orphaned non-free image File:Redbook.jpeg

⚠

Thanks for uploading File:Redbook.jpeg. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described in the criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Courcelles 03:46, 23 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Proposed deletion of Sweeny Murti

The article Sweeny Murti has been proposed for deletion because, under Wikipedia policy, all biographies of living persons created after March 18, 2010, must have at least one reliable source that directly supports material in the article.

If you created the article, please don't take offense. Instead, consider improving the article. For help on inserting references, see Referencing for beginners, or ask at the help desk. Once you have provided at least one reliable source, you may remove the {{prod blp}} tag. Please do not remove the tag unless the article is sourced. If you cannot provide such a source within ten days, the article may be deleted, but you can request that it be undeleted when you are ready to add one.

Speedy deletion nomination of Yankees Hot Stove

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 Yankees Hot Stove 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, organization (band, club, company, etc.) 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. Under 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 that this notice was placed here in error, contest the deletion by clicking on the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion," which appears inside of the speedy deletion ({{db-...}}) tag (if no such tag exists, the page is no longer a speedy delete candidate). Doing so will take you to the talk page where you will find a pre-formatted place for you to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. You can also visit the the page's talk page directly to give your reasons, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, you can contact one of these administrators to request that the administrator userfy the page or email a copy to you. – Muboshgu (talk) 15:18, 25 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

File copyright problem with File:Coneperfect.jpeg

Thank you for uploading File:Coneperfect.jpeg. However, it currently is missing information on its copyright and licensing status. Wikipedia takes copyright very seriously. It may be deleted soon, unless we can verify that it has an acceptable license status and a verifiable source. Please add this information by editing the image description page. You may refer to the image use policy to learn what files you can or cannot upload on Wikipedia. The page on copyright tags may help you to find the correct tag to use for your file. If the file is already gone, you can still make a request for undeletion and ask for a chance to fix the problem.

Please also check any other files you may have uploaded to make sure they are correctly tagged. Here is a list of your uploads.

If you have any questions, please feel free to ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thanks again for your cooperation. Eeekster (talk) 01:53, 22 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy deletion nomination of File:Coolidgebirthplace.jpeg

A tag has been placed on File:Coolidgebirthplace.jpeg requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section F9 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the image appears to be a blatant copyright infringement. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted images or text borrowed from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, contest the deletion by clicking on the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion".

Hi, if you are the author and photographer for the wen site, can you please add a notice somewhere on http://presidentryan.weebly.com to tell us that the image is cc-by-sa-3.0 like you say here on the upload.

FAC nomination

I noticed you began the process of nominating Kevin Gilbride for consideration as a featured article. I was going to complete the missing step (adding the nomination page you created to WP:FAC) but a quick look at the article shows it isn't quite ready yet. I can see that you put a lot of work into it, and it is greatly improved, but it needs some work to meet the featured article criteria. For the sake of comparison, you might want to read Carolina Panthers, a recently-promoted NFL team FA. Examples of some existing issues:

Section headers should use sentence case per WP:MOSHEAD.
Year ranges (such as 2007–present) should use endashes per WP:MOSDASH. The same goes for scores and records (2–14 record).
The article doesn't seem to cover the first ten years of his career, when he worked in college football.
The featured article criteria require citations that state the author, publisher, title, publication date, and access date.

I have commented out the {{FAC}} template on the article talk page, to give you some time to touch it up with the FA criteria in mind. You can complete the nomination at any time, but unprepared nominations are often archived without a full review, so I hope you'll take my advice to heart. Good luck, and thanks for your work!

Non-free rationale for File:OTDlogo.jpeg

Thanks for uploading or contributing to File:OTDlogo.jpeg. I notice the file page specifies that the file is being used under non-free content criteria, but there is not a suitable explanation or rationale as to why each specific use in Wikipedia is acceptable. Please go to the file description page, and edit it to include a non-free rationale.

If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified the non-free rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'file' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "File" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free media lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If the file is already gone, you can still make a request for undeletion and ask for a chance to fix the problem. If you have any questions, please ask them at the Media copyright questions page.

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 credibly 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 "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. reddogsix (talk) 03:57, 14 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Disambiguation link notification for September 22

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Brian Cashman, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Texas Rangers. 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.

Hello, I'm Zackmann08. Thank you for your recent contributions to Van Miller. I noticed that when you added the image to the infobox, you added it as a thumbnail. In the future, please do not use thumbnails when adding images to an infobox (see WP:INFOBOXIMAGE). What does this mean? Well in the infobox, when you specify the image you wish to use, instead of doing it like this:

|image=[[File:SomeImage.jpg|thumb|Some image caption]]

Instead just supply the name of the image. So in this case you can simply do:

|image=SomeImage.jpg.

There will then be a separate parameter for the image caption such as |caption=Some image caption. Please note that this is a generic form message I am leaving on your page because you recently added a thumbnail to an infobox. The specific parameters for the image and caption may be different for the infobox you are using! Please consult the Template page for the infobox being used to see better documentation. Thanks!

Please do not use thumbnails inside of infoboxes as you did to Trey Wingo. Note that this is your second warning regarding this issue. Continuing to add thumbnails will be seen as disruptive editing. For more information please see WP:INFOBOXIMAGE. When adding an image, instead of doing:

You can simply supply the name of the image. So in this case just do:

You edited the article recently and I'm hoping you can sort out some minor glitches which I think were introduced by some IPs on 14 January 2017. The problem is that the infobox contains "Height: ^{[convert: invalid number]}" (mouse of the message in the infobox to see more, or edit the page and show preview). Recent edits may have introduced other minor junk which is why I don't want to fix it as I'm not sure what should be done. Thanks. Johnuniq (talk) 05:49, 17 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Chester L. Krause moved to draftspace

An article you recently created, Chester L. Krause, does not have enough sources and citations 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.

Your submission at Articles for creation: Chester L. Krause (February 22)

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed! Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reason left by KylieTastic 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 (see the guidelines on the notability of people). 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:

Requires significant coverage in multiple independent reliable sources to show notability

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:Chester L. Krause 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:Chester L.

File source problem with File:2020 Native American Dollar Reverse.jpeg

Thank you for uploading File:2020 Native American Dollar Reverse.jpeg. I noticed that the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you did not create this file yourself, you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, please add a link to the page from which it was taken, together with a brief restatement of the website's terms of use of its content. If the original copyright holder is a party unaffiliated with the website, that author should also be credited. Please add this information by editing the image description page.

If the necessary information is not added within the next seven days, the image will be deleted. If the file is already gone, you can still make a request for undeletion and ask for a chance to fix the problem.

Please refer to the image use policy to learn what images you can or cannot upload on Wikipedia. Please also check any other files you have uploaded to make sure they are correctly tagged. Here is a list of your uploads. If you have any questions or are in need of assistance please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

Thanks for uploading File:Stottlemyre.jpeg, which you've attributed to https://www.flickr.com/photos/apardavila/19138340811/in/photostream/. I noticed that while you provided a valid copyright licensing tag, there is no proof that the creator of the file has agreed to release it under the given license.

If you are the copyright holder for this media entirely yourself but have previously published it elsewhere (especially online), please either

make a note permitting reuse under the CC-BY-SA or another acceptable free license (see this list) at the site of the original publication; or
Send an email from an address associated with the original publication to permissions-en@wikimedia.org, stating your ownership of the material and your intention to publish it under a free license. You can find a sample permission letter here. If you take this step, add {{OTRS pending}} to the file description page to prevent premature deletion.

If you did not create it entirely yourself, please ask the person who created the file to take one of the two steps listed above, or if the owner of the file has already given their permission to you via email, please forward that email to permissions-en@wikimedia.org.

If you believe the media meets the criteria at Wikipedia:Non-free content, use a tag such as {{non-free fair use}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:File copyright tags#Fair use, and add a rationale justifying the file's use on the article or articles where it is included. See Wikipedia:File copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have provided evidence that their copyright owners have agreed to license their works under the tags you supplied, too. You can find a list of files you have created in your upload log. Files lacking evidence of permission may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described in section F11 of the criteria for speedy deletion. You may wish to read Wikipedia's image use policy. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Ytoyoda (talk) 01:52, 14 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

License tagging for File:FranklinPiercegrave.jpeg

Thanks for uploading File:FranklinPiercegrave.jpeg. You don't seem to have indicated the license status of the image. Wikipedia uses a set of image copyright tags to indicate this information.

To add a tag to the image, select the appropriate tag from this list, click on this link, then click "Edit this page" and add the tag to the image's description. If there doesn't seem to be a suitable tag, the image is probably not appropriate for use on Wikipedia. For help in choosing the correct tag, or for any other questions, leave a message on Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. Thank you for your cooperation. --ImageTaggingBot (talk) 18:30, 24 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Not adding edit summaries (again)

Hi, in case you missed my previous request from August 2022:

In the future, please add edit summaries when making changes. Per Help:Edit summary: "When editing, be sure to summarize your contributions" and "Accurate summaries help other contributors decide whether they want to review an edit, and to understand the change should they choose to review it." Thanks. Rift (talk) 04:28, 23 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

June 2024

You may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you add unsourced or poorly sourced material to Wikipedia, as you did at Linda Cohn. Please stop synthesizing Linda Cohn's WP:DOB. Original research must not be used to extrapolate the date of birth. Toddst1 (talk) 15:26, 24 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

With all due respect, @Toddst1, this edit wasn't WP:SYN, as it actually contains Cohn's birth date in full. It might have appeared to be synthesis because @Coingeek didn't remove the then-unnecessary citation which merely gave a birth year range. I have restored Coingeek's edit while removing the unnecessary second citation. Rift (talk) 06:19, 25 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for pointing out my error. Apologies to CG. Toddst1 (talk) 21:39, 10 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Your submission at Articles for creation: Neil Shafer (July 7)

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

This submission is not adequately supported by reliable sources. Reliable sources are required so that information can be verified. If you need help with referencing, please see Referencing for beginners and Citing sources.

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 (see the guidelines on the notability of people). 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.

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 after they have been resolved.

Presidency Navigation Templates vs. Biography Navigation Templates discussion

Hello, Coingeek! Since you are listed as an active member of the United States Presidents WikiProject, would you mind leaving a comment at a project talk page discussion about a series of templates that I created for the presidencies of Lyndon B. Johnson, Richard Nixon, Gerald Ford, Jimmy Carter, Ronald Reagan, George H. W. Bush, and George W. Bush? Another editor and myself disagree about whether there should be a separate navigation template for each Presidency apart from the biographical navigation template. Thanks! -- CommonKnowledgeCreator (talk) 22:06, 9 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
