Difficulty logging in

Hi Oshwah,

I am experiencing difficulties logging in. I have no idea why but I keep getting a message that my User name doesn't exist. How do I resolve this?

Thanks

(talk page stalker) Apparently the account is User:Schlechterwolf (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs).
It doesn't seem blocked: Special:Log/block/User:Schlechterwolf.
The most recent contribution was in Talk:Human foamy virus. --CiaPan (talk) 14:17, 24 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
CiaPan - How do you know that this is his username? Just curious as to how you found out. ~Oshwah~(talk) (contribs) 01:46, 26 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
(talk page stalker) I can't speak for CiaPan, but I knew because of this. davidwr/(talk)/(contribs) 01:54, 26 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Hi, Osh! Davidwr guessed it right. As your TP-stalker I have your TP in my watchlist, and as a high-traffic one it often appears among most recently edited, close the top of the list. And I just happened to see it at the very top with a big red light of 10KB deletion. Before reverting I looked at the diff and found out it was a self-revert by author, so I stopped for a moment and took a look at the IP-editor's contributions. There were (and still are) just two actions, an addition to your talkpage and a self-partial-revert. So I refrained from reverting and replied instead, based on reading the mentioned diff and some search on topics and quotation given in it. --CiaPan (talk) 11:48, 26 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
PS. I'm going to e-mail you soon with some further notes on this topic. --CiaPan (talk)
CiaPan - Ah, thanks for letting me know! I appreciate it! :-) ~Oshwah~(talk) (contribs) 22:17, 29 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Naturist Society

Naturist Society - I had made some edits on the page and now the page is being held. I am a naturist who was just looking to update some information that is on the Naturist Society website and in the Nude & Natural magazine. I also contacted Nicky Hoffman, publisher/co-owner of N magazine for permission to update the cover photo. You can reach out to her at [REDACTED - Oshwah] to confirm permission to the image. We as naturists are only trying to give current information to those that are interested in become naturists. Can you please put the page back out for people to see? Thank you a concerned naturist!

@CaretakerofN: Please be aware Wikipedia is not interested at all what you (as an idividual, as an activist, as an amploee, as a society member, as a religious movement leader, as a company owner or anyone) are trying to tell others about you (as an individual, as an organization, as a movement, as a company, etc.). Wikipedia is not for promotion – and telling about yourself IS a promotion. Please kindly see our rules at WP:What Wikipedia is not as an extension to more fundamental WP:Notability and WP:Verifiability. Without knowing the rules defined in those policies (and following them) you have little chance your additions to the articles will be accepted. The more you're editing in a clear WP:Conflict of interest position, which is strongly discouraged here. --CiaPan (talk) 16:29, 24 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Hi CaretakerofN! Thanks for the message. As CiaPan stated above, it seems like you have a personal conflict of interest with the articles that you're trying to edit. Editing articles that you have a conflict of interest with is high discouraged and will likely lead to that content being removed. Keep this in mind when you go to make any edits to articles here. It's better if you contribute to subjects that you're interested in, but where you do not have a conflict of interest with. This assures that all content is written to reflect a neutral point of view. If the owner of the copyrighted works wishes to donate that work to Wikipedia and allow us to use it in the article, they can do so by following the directions here and contact the foundation. Please let me know if you have any more questions, and I'll be happy to answer them and help you further. Thanks again for the message! :-) ~Oshwah~(talk) (contribs) 22:21, 29 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Hi MeegsC! I'm sorry to see that you were warned by someone trying to impersonate me. You'll unfortunately find that this happens a lot to me. I guess you can call it a "curse" that comes alongside with being a part of the community... :-/ Nonetheless, I'm happy to see that you figured this out and that you disregarded the message. :-) ~Oshwah~(talk) (contribs) 22:24, 29 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Random warning

Hello. I got a random "final warning" for vandalism from you, which was reverted by another user on my talk page. Was that a mistake? — CuriousGolden (T·C) 17:38, 24 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Oh, I read the previous discussion here and apparently it was someone impersonating you. Sorry. — CuriousGolden (T·C) 17:39, 24 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
No worries, CuriousGolden. Apparently a lot of people were warned by this user... I'm sorry that it happened to you... ~Oshwah~(talk) (contribs) 22:25, 29 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Impersonation attempt

​A few minutes ago, a user by the name of UserOshwash (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · nuke contribs · logs · filter log · block user · block log) started putting level 4im user warnings on the talk pages of seemingly random users (including me [1]), using your signature. This issue has since been resolved, however I wished to make you aware of the situation. Thank you for your time. Opalzukor (talk) 17:39, 24 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Opalzukor! Thanks for letting me know. This isn't the first time that it's happened, and it won't be the last. I'm sorry to see that it happened to you, and I'm glad that you disregarded the "warning". :-) Cheers - ~Oshwah~(talk) (contribs) 22:26, 29 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

UAK block evasion

Can you please place a rangeblock on 181.161.160.0/19 (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · filter log · WHOIS · RDNS · RBLs · block user · block log)? This appears to be his newest (and current) range. All the edits since mid-November have been exclusively from this LTA. Without a rangeblock, the abuse is just going to accelerate and worsen, given this LTA's past behavior. A CU on the range should reveal the full extent of the recent socking (I expect multiple accounts to turn up in a CU). I would suggest starting with 1-3 months. Thanks.

Edit conflict in need of a quick resolution

Hi Oshwah, there is currently a larger edit conflict going on which has turned into sort of a frenzy and a smaller current conflict. Thepharoa17 is accusing Konli17 of being a sock and is serially reverting his edits with an edit summary only referring on him being a sock and not on content. I've seen you are one of the Sockpuppet investigation clerks and this Sockpuppet investigation needs some attention urgently as if not, it wouldn't be of service to the project. I would like to see some calmness again in the area.Paradise Chronicle (talk) 14:47, 27 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Paradise Chronicle! Okay, one of us will take a look. Thanks for letting me know. :-) Best - ~Oshwah~(talk) (contribs) 00:03, 30 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry you are having to endure constant pestering by the guy borrowing your user page picture.

Glory (Britney Spears album)

Hi Oshwah, I have a question. So recently Britney Spears’ album Glory was just reissued with a new single called Mood Ring, I made an edit stating that per Template:Infobox album states “The Singles from Oshwah template may be used as a miscellaneous addition to the infobox providing concise information about songs on the album that were released as singles during the marketing and promotion of the album.” So since the new single was released during the reissue and not the initial release of Glory isn’t it correct to have it be stated as a single under the reissue? Hopefully you’ll be able to see how I had it. Another user removed it, I immediately wrote a message on their talk page 3 days ago but it seems they are ignoring me since they have now been continuously editing. Hope all is well during the holidays!

Thanks! Pillowdelight (talk) 01:35, 1 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Pillowdelight! Thanks for the message and for the holiday wishes! I hope you're doing well and that you're keeping safe this holiday season. :-) I'm not an expert when it comes to Wikipedia consensus and the specifics with songs, singles, albums, and infoboxes. I did recently help mediate two users who were edit warring over an issue with singles and albums, but I didn't weigh in on who was right or who was wrong (since, lol, I had no clue and it really wasn't relevant). I would think that you're correct; you would add the single under the re-issue album, since that album was released with the single - however, don't quote me on this. ;-) Who was it that reverted your edit? What did they state in the edit summary? Have they offered you any explanation at all as to why they reverted it? I can leave a message alongside yours asking the user to explain why they reverted their edit. They should be communicating with you over this, and they should be open to discussing it with you. Let me know. :-) Cheers - ~Oshwah~(talk) (contribs) 01:40, 4 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

RevDel request

Hello, I saw your name at Wikipedia administrators willing to handle RevisionDelete requests, so I thought I would send a request your way. Starting with this edit at Titoo, a redirect, copyrighted material was added from pogo.tv/shows/titoo/about.html. Currently the page is fully protected. I was told that it doesn't really matter since it is just a redirect, but I still thought it would be worth purging. Thanks either way! ‡ Єl Cid of Valencia talk 17:56, 1 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • Oshwah let me explain the sequence of events here, so you can handle this. I obviously didn't, because I guess I didn't understand. I may have dropped the ball in the process. As Titoo, there was a request for page protection. By the time I saw it, it was a redirect, but I protected it. 1 There was a copyvio tag on the redirect, but I removed it. Didn't think it applied to a redirect. Then there was a subsequent RFPP note generated that told me not all pages in the request were protected. 2 I'm not sure if El cid, el campeador is requesting a rev del on the redirect page and its history, or if that history is now at Nipple tattoo. So, however you can take care of this is appreciated. — Maile (talk) 19:00, 1 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oshwah (talk page stalker) Additional information: From the looks of things, someone tried to hijack a redirect (edits from 13:47 and 13:48, 1 December 2020 (UTC)), El cid, el campeador put db-copyvio on it, a bot picked that up and flagged it as seen in the page's log, another established editor reverted el cid's db-copyvio, el cid then flagged it for deletion-revision, then Maile66 reverted that edit and protected the page.[2][reply]
  • El cid, el campeador It might help if you said exactly which revisions were copyright violations. davidwr/(talk)/(contribs) 20:33, 1 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Davidwr, the specific edits are here through 991721673, when the redirect was restored by Launchballer. In any case I apologize to everyone if this all caused more confusion than help... cheers ‡ Єl Cid of Valencia talk 20:47, 2 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
@El cid, el campeador: So, basically just the 3 edits by 2405:... and the edit by you, all within 3 minutes of each other from 13:47-13:50, 1 December 2020 (UTC)? That should be easy enough for Oshwah to find. You can always go back and re-add a filled-out {{copyvio-revdel}} template if it's not fixed in a few days. Just put it below the #redirect line or on the talk page. If you put it on the talk page, use |details= to explain that the revisions are on the non-talk page.[reply]
Hi everyone! I managed to locate and revision delete the three revisions that contained the copyrighted content.
El cid, el campeador - Thanks for letting me know about the issue! :-) I guess I wouldn't necessarily count this as a situation (compared to most) where emailing me instead of publicly messaging me rev del requests is absolutely dire, but just note that revision deletion requests should usually be emailed to me instead of publicly messaged to me here. I have about 1000 users who actively watchlist this page, and if you've heard of the Streisand effect, I've seen in page statistics where this absolutely does happen and after users have requested revision deletion on my user talk page. Users will see the message, and then rush over to view the content before they lose the ability to see it. Obviously, this is no bueno and we should avoid it where possible. ;-) No big deal, just figured I'd let you know. :-)
Maile66 - No worries, mistakes and weird things happen. ;-) I run into things like this all the time... You receive a notice, request, or message, the page gets changed to something completely different (like an article gets changed to a redirect), and by the time you look at the page and the request, you're scratching your head asking yourself "what is this person talking about?!!" :-) You didn't drop the ball on anything; this project is not compulsory and you're never required to use your tools. I appreciate you for adding to the initial message and for providing those details. :-D
Davidwr - Thanks for requesting the specific diffs (even though rev del requests should be emailed, but oh well...). That was helpful in assuring that I was able to quickly handle the issue. :-)
According to WP:REVDELREQUEST, WP:RD1 is the one exception to the "should be emailed" rule. There's even a template for it, {{Copyvio-revdel}}, but it is awkward to use on redirect pages. davidwr/(talk)/(contribs) 02:42, 4 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Cheers everyone! Have a wonderful and safe holiday, and please know that my user talk page is always open to you should you have questions or need help with anything. :-D ~Oshwah~(talk) (contribs) 01:56, 4 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Your crazy hair makes my heart happy!

Hello Oshwah!

I hope you're well and healthy! My name is Brianne Derrah, I'm an Ojibway-Metis student at UWO and I'm part of the Endangered languages project on Wikipedia. I have some questions for you regarding legitimate sources in situations when sources that would be considered legitimate by Wikipedia's policies are few and far between. I realize that this falls under a relevancy issue, but in the case of endangered languages, I would argue that their lack of material is not a reflection of their relevancy.

In any case, I thank you very much for your kind attention and hope to hear from you soon!

Best,

BBrianneDerrah (talk) 20:00, 1 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Hi BrianneDerrah! Thanks for the message. I agree that there can be "grey areas" at times in regards to the availability of reliable sources, their relevancy or "legitimacy" to the article subject, or whether or not an article subject is considered to have "significant coverage" in regards to Wikipedia's general notability guidelines. What specific questions do you have? Have you reviewed Wikipedia's guidelines on reliable sources? Are you familiar with Wikipedia's notability guidelines? We also have a new user tutorial that will be helpful for you as well. It will provide you with many important walkthroughs, guides, interactive lessons, and other information that will familiarize you with our policies and guidelines, how Wikipedia works, how to navigate around the site, and how to find important locations and pages. Most users who take this advice and complete the tutorial tell me later that it was significantly helpful to them and saved them hours of time and frustration they would've experienced otherwise. Let me know what questions you have, and I'll be happy to answer them. :-) Welcome to Wikipedia, by the way - and thank you for the compliment regarding my hair! LOL ~Oshwah~(talk) (contribs) 02:09, 4 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Hey there Oshwah! Thank you so much for your kind reply! I appreciate it! I've been working through the tutorials, and they're wonderful, but I still see some "grey area" that I'd like to clear up. So, in the training, it talks about not using sources from within the community/institution/whatever you're posting about. Thing is, particularly with endangered languages, the best and most reliable sources are the ones that come from within the speech community because they're the ones most likely to really care about accuracy and things like that. Additionally, there's an issue with distrust particularly among Indigenous communities because there have been so many academics marching into our communities, treating us like subjects, and then selling our data and information for their own personal gain. So it ends up being that there isn't a whole lot of research being done by academies because it's just too hard to get enough trust to get the information they're looking for. In any case, I'm just wondering if you would say that, given these circumstances, it's okay to use sources that the community itself has published since they're the most reliable. Additionally, no problem about the hair thing! You gotta love crazy hair! Thank you for your kindness, BrianneDerrah (talk) 21:02, 7 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

What to do about this user?

Clearly a shared account, trying to promote Addictive Eaters Anonymous, but not obvious enough to report. See the talk of Addictive eaters and my talk page. See User:Vpkb2012 4thfile4thrank (talk) 20:00, 1 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Hi 4thfile4thrank! I hope you're doing well and that you stay safe this holiday season! Hmm... I mean, there isn't much we can do until the behavior becomes repeated. They definitely created an article that was deleted under G11, but otherwise, they haven't edited much since then. I do note that they made this request on your user talk page asking about conflict of interest, but they haven't done anything I'd consider disruptive enough where administrative action is necessary (at least not yet). Their username doesn't appear to violate Wikipedia's username policy as implying share use or representing an organization or company.
I'd just respond to the message that the user left you, and let them know that a conflict of interest isn't something that just "goes away" or can be "resolved". If they have a personal conflict of interest with the article subject that they're trying to create (which it seems like they acknowledge that they do), that's obviously a problem. They should instead add the article to the list of requested articles and let someone else create it, and they should focus their efforts on improving or expanding the encyclopedia in areas that interest them, but where they don't have a conflict of interest. That's how I'd handle this. Of course, if the user becomes disruptive, let me know and I can handle that. As of right now, they're simply asking a question and there's no harm in that. Let's assume good faith and take this as them trying to reach out for help and understand how Wikipedia works. :-) ~Oshwah~(talk) (contribs) 02:17, 4 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
@Oshwah: What are the guidelines for reporting users for spam? 4thfile4thrank (talk) 02:18, 4 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
4thfile4thrank - If it's blatant spam and if they've been warned and continue to do it, report them to Wikipedia:Administrator intervention against vandalism. That noticeboard will work fine. :-) Let me know if you have any more questions and I'll be happy to answer them. Cheers! ~Oshwah~(talk) (contribs) 02:46, 4 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Looking for your opinion on an editor

Oshwah, you're an Admin I trust. I would appreciate it if you would take a look at this editor – User talk:Lonniemitchell22 – and determine if you think it's time for some kind of block (or some other action). This user has gotten a plethora of Level 4 warnings, and it doesn't seem to be changing or improving their behavior one iota... Thanks. --IJBall (contribs • talk) 21:36, 1 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Hi IJBall! Thanks for the message! How've you been? It's been quite some time since we've said hello to one another! I hope you're doing well and that you're staying safe this holiday season. :-)
I think you did the right thing by noting to this user in your warning that this is the last one that they'll receive, and that any more issues will result in a report being filed at ANI. A discussion at ANI would be the logical next step in resolving any further disruption by this user should it be necessary, and it will also allow the community to weigh in.
With the exception of blatant vandals, LTA users, etc that need to be blocked right away - I try not to block users after they've been given a final warning and if they haven't done anything (yet) afterwards to warrant further action - especially if the warning was actually written to them with a custom message and if the user has been here for some time. I see it as a bit unfair; we just warned them and told them that they have one more chance to turn things around and improve their behavior, and then for me to just go and block them... It wouldn't give the user (or any user) a good impression on how administrators behave on Wikipedia if we did that. ;-)
This user has a long history of warnings for disruption, and I'm surprised that this user has a clean block record. It's doubtful that the user will turn things around, but we've already set expectations with them and outlined the consequences should things continue. Keep an eye on the user if you believe it necessary to do so, and stick to your bottom line. The next time that this user causes an issue or any kind of disruption, you should absolutely file a report at ANI. Sometimes, a more powerful message than a block that you can give to a user is the act of taking the exact action that you clearly communicated would happen in a final warning. ;-)
Please let me know if there's anything else I can help you with, and I'll be happy to do so. If this user keeps things up, and if you feel that action is needed right away, don't hesitate to let me know. :-) It's good to talk to you again! ~Oshwah~(talk) (contribs) 02:40, 4 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Hello, Oshwah. Just wanting to preface that I've come here from IJBall. I too have experienced issues with this user, especially seeing how several of the warnings on their talk page come from myself.
Most of my issues with them have been in regards to references, such as all the reorderings of parameters done here. That isn't much of a deal compared to some other stuff. Countless times, I've told them to be using the correct citation method, such as cite press release instead of cite web for press releases, yet continue to do just the opposite (The site in question, The Futon Critic, provides press releases, the citation in that edit being an example of one).
The user has also been warned multiple times about removing sources/sourced content from articles, most recently by IJBall here for their edit on The Outpost. Despite that warning, it seems they either haven't seen it or don't care enough to heed the warning, removing sources from List of Nick Jr. original programming just today.
I'm really not sure what should be done at this point, but it seems like any amount of warnings will not be changing their editing behavior anytime soon. Seems like now would be the time for something to be done.
Thanks in advance. Magitroopa (talk) 19:29, 8 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

How do I do this...

Can you tell me how I can write an article on Wikipedia? — Preceding unsigned comment added by WOCWindows10 (talk • contribs) 15:51, 3 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Hi WOCWindows10! Welcome to Wikipedia! :-) Have you gone through and completed Wikipedia's new user tutorial? It will provide you with many important walkthroughs, guides, interactive lessons, and other information that will familiarize you with our policies and guidelines, how Wikipedia works, how to navigate around the site, and how to find important locations and pages (including how to create articles!). Most users who take this advice and complete the tutorial tell me later that it was significantly helpful to them and saved them hours of time and frustration they would've experienced otherwise. I highly recommend that you take advantage of that tutorial; you'll be missing out on a lot of good information and very useful guides if you don't. If you still have questions about how to create an article on Wikipedia after finishing the tutorial, please let me know and I'll be happy to help you further. :-) Again, welcome to Wikipedia! I'm glad that you decided to join us! :-) ~Oshwah~(talk) (contribs) 02:44, 4 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Having 1000 watchlisters

A few days ago up above you said "I have about 1000 users who actively watchlist this page". The discussion was about how revdel should be emailed to avoid the Streisand effect.

I just saw where you redacted some guy's email address. I confess I took a peek. Why? I need to make sure it's on my email's blacklist. (ok seriously no, I won't put it on my blacklist, my email provider has very good anti-spam heuristics so it's not necessary. However the domain-name, which you did not redact, is in my "mental list of likely spammers." This should be a clue to all spammers that spamming Wikipedia is counter-productive.) davidwr/(talk)/(contribs) 14:07, 4 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I just realized the IP editor might have been joe-jobbing to tarnish the reputation of that company by painting it as a spammer. I'll move that domain to my in-head list of "likely spammers OR victims of joe-jobbing." davidwr/(talk)/(contribs) 14:09, 4 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Hi Davidwr! I hid that email address to avoid any potential abuse of it by other users, but it looked like a business email so I didn't think it was necessary to rev del it. ;-) And see?!! The Streisand effect exists here! That's why I have to ask users to email rev del requests to me instead of posting them here publicly... lol ~Oshwah~(talk) (contribs) 14:57, 4 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
I didn't expect a revdel, and hiding it was common courtesy - not just for the reasons you stated but I'm sure some email-address-harvesting bots used by spammers ignore the "noindex" protocols and get email example@127.0.0.1 addresses any way they can. davidwr/(talk)/(contribs) 15:05, 4 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Davidwr - Indeed that is true, and I don't doubt at all that it happens here. Those lousy spambots.... lol :-) ~Oshwah~(talk) (contribs) 15:06, 4 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

How to edit protected pages ?

I have many times seen false information on some Wikipedia pages. Then I came to know that i can edit them, but I can't edit them. Maybe because I don't have verified account. As you have been on this for more than 14 years, maybe you can help me. Thank you ! Pruthviraj Dodiya (talk) 14:28, 4 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

(talk page watcher) Hi Pruthviraj Dodiya, some articles are protected against vandalism, requiring certain user rights to edit them. The most common of these are for autoconfirmed and extended confirmed, which requires a certain number of days and edits to attain. Autoconfirmed is 10 edits and 4 days, whilst Extended confirmed is 30 days and 500 edits. Generally these articles have a history of abuse, or are rife for editors to "fix" them against wikipedia's policies and standards. Just keep in mind that even when you meet these requirements, you should still edit within the standards for that particular article. If there is innacuracies, you can post an {{edit request}} on the talk page of the article in question for an experienced editor to implement. Best Wishes, Lee Vilenski (talk • contribs) 14:48, 4 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
(edit conflict) Hi Pruthviraj Dodiya! Welcome to Wikipedia. Whether or not you can edit a protected page depends on the level of protection that is currently set on it. For example, in order for you to edit semi-protected pages, your account must be at least 4 days old and have made a total of 10 edits. Right now, your account is 5 hours old and you have made 9 total edits with it - so you just need to wait a few days and you'll be able to edit those protected pages without any problems. You'll notice that the majority of articles that are protected are going to be semi-protected, so once your account is a few days old, you likely won't run into any restrictions. There are other protection levels that restrict editing to accounts with higher levels of edits or user rights, but you'll find that those aren't that common, and in time, your account will get there. You can read through the different protection levels used and their requirements in order to edit those pages by reviewing Wikipedia's protection policy. Please let me know if you have any more questions, and I'll be happy to answer them. Again, welcome to Wikipedia! I'm glad that you decided to join us! :-) ~Oshwah~(talk) (contribs) 14:54, 4 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Edit review

Sorry for the late reply, could you review the edit on Glory? A user Livelikemusic gave me a “disruptive editing” message on my talk page after I had corrected the single with being released under the reissue. There explanation of the removal was very vague. I reached out to them via their talk page and questioned it and they were once again— very vague. They told me I wasn’t following the template correctly and that I’m trying to move around it. They also need to give a more in depth explanation of why it isn’t appropriate to have in the box. Yet many users have already discussed whether the song is a single— which was confirmed to be. But this user all of a sudden isn’t allowing it to be included in the box on the album page. Which to me is odd. They had also told me I wasn’t following their “talk page rules” after I had sent them a message. Didn’t know that was a thing but okay... Please review the messages on both mine and this users talk page. For some odd reason it wouldn’t allow me to respond back to our previous conversation. Pillowdelight (talk) 22:42, 4 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@Oshwah: If you don’t mind me asking is it just me or is this user (Livelikemusic) clearly showing signs of lacking Wikipedia:Consensus? I also don’t feel appreciated how they immediately gave me a level 3 warning without prior reaching out to me to explain what is wrong and what is right. To me this fits me perfectly Misinformation, accidental— I’m still new and learning I’ve only been editing for 8 months and this user is treating me as if I’m a vandal. They are lacking Policy and guideline pages, good-faith changes to— they need to actually discuss this with me; telling me I’m wrong and they are right really isn’t helpful. Pillowdelight (talk) 03:48, 5 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Pillowdelight! Sorry for the delay responding to your message here. Again, I'm not an expert with articles in this nature, nor am I an expert regarding those specific templates and when they should or shouldn't be used. If you haven't already, you should kindly explain to Livelikemusic that you feel that their responses to your input and questions are vague, and follow that statement with exact questions to the user that would help you to completely understand their position. I don't understand why they left you a level 3 warning - perhaps they can explain this? Good faith should always be assumed; you weren't purposefully disrupting the article, and there's obviously a disagreement with certain things. Just remember to remain civil and (most importantly) don't edit war. ;-) If there's previous consensus regarding your argument, make sure that you point it out to them. Remember that the dispute resolution protocol is here to help in disputes; if you two can't come to an agreement, look to that guide for what to do next. Get outside input from people who edit these kinds of articles often, ask for community input... There's plenty of helpful steps and guides in that protocol. Give it a read-through and don't hesitate to ask if you have any questions or are confused about anything. Keep me posted; I'll be happy to help you with anything you need. :-) Best of luck - ~Oshwah~(talk) (contribs) 23:49, 6 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Revision deletion

A question

Maybe this should go to a higher authority, but someone high up on the food chain ranks of respected highly trusted veteran editors might want to register this username globally, set up a "meta" page, then lock it, just as a placeholder for when that "username" shows up - albeit without a link - in logs.

Yeah, I'm being pendantic here and considered not even mentioning it, but it has just enough humor value to make it worth mentioning and, I think, worth doing. Heck, on March 32 the account could even "make an edit" - reverted immediately of course - to Main page, just to see if anyone noticed it in the edit logs. davidwr/(talk)/(contribs) 01:14, 7 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Davidwr - Not a bad idea. I'll table the thought for now and see what others think. I'll ping and email some privately in order to make sure I don't put beans up my nose. ;-) ~Oshwah~(talk) (contribs) 01:59, 7 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Too complicated? OK, maybe a simpler version, "My mommy said never put beans in your laptoppoweradapterport, beans in your laptoppoweradapterport, beans in your lapptoppoweradapterport, ...."

Thank you Have a great day

Glenn Sestig (talk) 09:35, 7 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Glenn Sestig, and welcome to Wikipedia! The page that you're referring to was your user page, which I deleted under G11 of Wikipedia's speedy deletion criteria. This was because your userpage was focused primarily on an autobiography or promotion about yourself, rather than a userpage that's primarily on-topic and focused on Wikipedia-related items. Wikipedia is not a place for advertising and promotion, and this includes self-promotion. I recommend that you take some time and read through Wikipedia's user page policy, specifically what you may have on your user page and what you may not have on your user page. Please let me know if you have any questions about these policies and guides, and I'll be happy to answer them and clear up any confusion.

AP9000 (talk) 13:09, 7 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Hi AP9000! The GoMore article is currently not protected on the English Wikipedia. The reason that you cannot create an article on the main namespace yet is because your account is not confirmed. In order for your account to become "confirmed", it must both be more than four days old and have made at least 10 total edits. Once your account has made 10 edits and becomes 5 days old, it will become automatically confirmed. You'll be able to create the article then. In the meantime, you should be able to create a draft of the article. Simply visit this page for information and instructions, and you should be on your way without any problems. Please let me know if you have any questions or need any additional help, and I'll be more than happy to answer them and assist you. Thanks for the message, and I wish you a great day and happy editing. :-) Best regards - ~Oshwah~(talk) (contribs) 13:25, 7 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Little Problem

Following this what do you think is the best course of action pertaining the Kaptain Kush article itself? I was thinking of using a G5 but wasn’t sure how that was gonna play out then i thought of unilaterally moving it to draftspace but figured to first ask you before proceeding. I’m in a fix now, what do you propose is the best course of action? Celestina007 (talk) 03:34, 8 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Celestina007! Good question. If an article is created by someone who is actively evading their block or ban, a G5 is the usual way to go. However, there are instances where I haven't done this, simply because the article had high value. If it's an article where the subject is notable and would be kept otherwise, and if it's well written, I haven't been opposed to the idea of deleting it under G5 and then having someone re-create it so that the sock doesn't receive credit, but it still defeats the purpose nonetheless. We're still rewarding their efforts by keeping the article. I guess the question is this: is there a reason not to G5 the article? It's been tagged as possibly having been contributed to using non-disclosed paid accounts. This is against policy, and, like I said: Keeping it would reward their efforts. It would inadvertently teach them that the article they want to create will be kept if they put enough effort into their intentions. :-) ~Oshwah~(talk) (contribs) 21:46, 8 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Unjust move of my article to Draft

Hello Oshwah, I strongly believe I will get justice from you so I am hopeful that you will attend to this issue very well. I have been an editor since 2015, but I get a lot of attacks and disapproval which has continued to discourage me from doing anything further.

I created an article that is clearly correct with every credible reference from very popular platforms in Nigeria. But my article was unjustly moved to draft for allegedly not having a credible source. Oshwah, I am here to let you know that 3 sources I quoted are have been in existence since 2007 and have an international reputation with over millions of followers on Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram. they include but not limited to Vanguard, Genuis, and Bella Naija.

Jeriqis more than qualified to be on Wikipedia as he is well known and has good followership. I urge you to intervene on this urgent matter thank you. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Fabregado (talk • contribs) 11:10, 8 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Fabregado! Thanks for leaving me a message here with your questions and concerns. The article you created was moved to draftspace because it was unreferenced at the time that it was moved. I see that you've added references since the move, which is a good thing to do. And don't worry! Because an article is moved to the draft space doesn't make it a bad thing. Having it in the draft space gives you the ability to spend all the time you need to expand and improve the article before it is accepted and moved into the mainspace. It also allows you to seek help from volunteers if you get stuck or have questions. Once the article is ready, it'll be moved back. It's already been submitted for review; just make improvements to the article and expand it while you wait for someone to approve it. Please let me know if you have any more questions, and I'll be happy to answer them. :-) Best regards - ~Oshwah~(talk) (contribs) 21:52, 8 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Draft article

Hi there, hope you are well. I have been drafting a new article and have spent a good amount of time on it - Draft:RAF Lakenheath near nuclear disasters. I was hoping to be able to get someone to review it for me. I noticed that you've done a couple of edits on the list of military nuclear accidents page, so I thought the topic area of my article (two Broken Arrow nuclear incidents) might be of interest to you. If you could review it for me would be immensely grateful. Snugglewasp (talk) 17:13, 8 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Snugglewasp! Thanks for leaving me a message here! I hope you're doing well and that you're staying safe this holiday season. :-) Sure, I'll be happy to give it a read-through and see what I can do to help improve it. Upon first glance, I have to say... you've done a great job so far with the article. It appears well-formatted, informative, detailed, full of media and images, and would definitely be an article I see as one that would be a great candidate for being approved and moved to the mainspace. It might not be today (I'm quite busy and have a number of items on my to-do list), but I'll definitely give it a read. :-) Please let me know if I can do anything else for you, and I'll be happy to help!
