Deletion discussion about United States presidential election in District of Columbia, 2016
Hello, Arglebargle79,
Eisenhower Museum reference
Hi, Arglebargle79. In your revision of 07:28, January 31, 2017 on Dwight D. Eisenhower Presidential Library, Museum and Boyhood Home, you added some great information but you have an incomplete reference for the source. You cited a web page that lists the journal for sale, not the actual journal itself. If you own that journal, please update the reference using the template I've installed in the article. Otherwise, I have just purchased it myself and can fix the article when I receive my copy. Thanks. See it's talk page for discussion of my recent edits. RM2KX (talk) 15:45, 6 March 2017 (UTC)
March 2017
Please stop making disruptive edits.
- If you are engaged in an article content dispute with another editor, discuss the matter with the editor at their talk page, or the article's talk page, and seek consensus with them. Alternatively you can read Wikipedia's dispute resolution page, and ask for independent help at one of the relevant notice boards.
- If you are engaged in any other form of dispute that is not covered on the dispute resolution page, seek assistance at Wikipedia's Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents.
If you continue to disrupt Wikipedia, you may be blocked from editing. Callmemirela 🍁 {Talk} ♑ 20:56, 23 March 2017 (UTC)
Request for Arbitration declined
Hi Arglebargle79;
I'd just like to tell you that your request for Arbitration has been declined by a vote of the Committee.
For the Committee, Kharkiv07 (T) 23:31, 25 March 2017 (UTC)
Bare urls as references
Thanks for your efforts to improve Bahamian general election, 2017, but could you format references rather than leaving them as bare URLs? Here's an example of how you can do it. Cheers, Number 57 14:22, 27 April 2017 (UTC)
Disambiguation link notification for May 10
Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Bahamian general election, 2017, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page National Democratic Alliance. 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.

The article K. Peter Turnquest has been proposed for deletion because it appears to have no references. Under Wikipedia policy, this biography of a living person will be deleted after seven days unless it has at least one reference to a reliable source that directly supports material in the article.
If you created the article, please don't be offended. 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/dated}} tag. Please do not remove the tag unless the article is sourced. If you cannot provide such a source within seven days, the article may be deleted, but you can request that it be undeleted when you are ready to add one. Ochib (talk) 13:29, 25 May 2017 (UTC)

Thanks for creating the article on the abdication of Akihito; I cleaned it up a bit, so you might want to check to see what I did. RileyBugz会話投稿記録 15:49, 26 November 2017 (UTC)
Copying within Wikipedia requires proper attribution
Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you copied or moved text from Nuremberg trials into Timeline of World War II (1945-91). While you are welcome to re-use Wikipedia's content, here or elsewhere, Wikipedia's licensing does require that you provide attribution to the original contributor(s). When copying within Wikipedia, this is supplied at minimum in an edit summary at the page into which you've copied content, disclosing the copying and linking to the copied page, e.g., copied content from [[page name]]; see that page's history for attribution. It is good practice, especially if copying is extensive, to also place a properly formatted {{copied}} template on the talk pages of the source and destination. The attribution has been provided for this situation, but if you have copied material between pages before, even if it was a long time ago, please provide attribution for that duplication. You can read more about the procedure and the reasons at Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia. Thank you. If you are the sole author of the prose that was moved, attribution is not required. — Diannaa 🍁 (talk) 21:34, 27 November 2017 (UTC)
Among other of your changes, you replaced "United Kingdom Prime Minister" with "British Prime Minister". Why?
Certainly at the time, the name in question was "United Kingdom" (or more formally, United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland). And the article in question is actually "Prime Minister of the United Kingdom", so there's no basis for the change. Tarl N. (discuss) 20:14, 1 December 2017 (UTC)
Accession & Era dates
Howdy, we don't have a source that gives the exact time of day on April 30, 2019 that Akihito will be abdicating. If it's at midnight? then Naruhito will ascend on May 1. If before midnight? then Naruhito ascends on April 30. In Japan the succession is automatic. Note that the era is always dated for the day after the succession. See Akihito, who succeeded to the throne on January 7, 1989 but his era began on January 8, 1989. GoodDay (talk) 20:37, 2 December 2017 (UTC)
- All I know is what I read in the papers, so to speak, and they all say that the old emperor is to go on the 30th and the new guy takes over on the first. I take this to mean that there's going to be an interregnum of about a day, give or take a few hours, and the new era is to start at midnight. The whole thing's going to be part of an expensive tourism festival the likes of which has never been seen in that part of the world. Arglebargle79 (talk) 20:51, 2 December 2017 (UTC)
- There's no interregnum. The two dates are for when a reign begins & when an era begins. GoodDay (talk) 20:56, 2 December 2017 (UTC)
- The old guy hands in his regalia on the last day of April and his son gets them the following day. The people who are in charge of this are the ones who are in charge of this. I'm 100% sure there's a special committee figuring everything out as we speak. It's like when the pope quit, sure it happened before, but it was so long ago that no one remembers it happening or knows someone who did. Arglebargle79 (talk) 21:12, 2 December 2017 (UTC)
- There's no interregnum, accession is automatic. The only way Naruhito comes to the throne on May 1, is if the abdication occurs at midnight. GoodDay (talk) 21:17, 2 December 2017 (UTC)
- It DOESN'T matter. Arglebargle79 (talk) 21:22, 2 December 2017 (UTC)
- There's no interregnum, accession is automatic. The only way Naruhito comes to the throne on May 1, is if the abdication occurs at midnight. GoodDay (talk) 21:17, 2 December 2017 (UTC)
- The exact time the Emperor gives up his regalia. Not now anyways. There's a highly paid committee that's going to figure this whole thing out to the second and they probably won't publish the schedule until a year from next April. So it doesn't matter...YET. Chill. Arglebargle79 (talk) 21:32, 2 December 2017 (UTC)
Nomination of Abdication of Emperor Akihito for deletion
A discussion is taking place as to whether the article Abdication of Emperor Akihito is suitable for inclusion in Wikipedia according to Wikipedia's policies and guidelines or whether it should be deleted.
The article will be discussed at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Abdication of Emperor Akihito until a consensus is reached, and anyone is welcome to contribute to the discussion. The nomination will explain the policies and guidelines which are of concern. The discussion focuses on high-quality evidence and our policies and guidelines.
Users may edit the article during the discussion, including to improve the article to address concerns raised in the discussion. However, do not remove the article-for-deletion notice from the top of the article. – Muboshgu (talk) 20:51, 3 December 2017 (UTC)

The article 2020 Democratic National Convention has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:
WP:TOOSOON, WP:CRYSTAL as shown by the lack of sources. Also extremely unlikely. as claimed, that Republican delegates will choose the Democrat candidate
While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.
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.
Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. Cabayi (talk) 23:18, 31 January 2018 (UTC)
Speedy deletion nomination of 2020 Democratic National Convention
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 2020 Democratic National Convention, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G4 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page appears to be a repost of material that was previously deleted following a deletion discussion, such as at Articles for deletion. When a page has substantially identical content to that of a page deleted after a discussion, and any changes in the content do not address the reasons for which the material was previously deleted, it may be deleted at any time.
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. 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. Cabayi (talk) 23:19, 31 January 2018 (UTC)
Please do not mark the addition of content as minor
Thank you for your contributions. Please mark your edits as "minor" only if they are minor edits. In accordance with Help:Minor edit, a minor edit is one that the editor believes requires no review and could never be the subject of a dispute. Minor edits consist of things such as typographical corrections, formatting changes or rearrangement of text without modification of content. Additionally, the reversion of clear-cut vandalism and test edits may be labeled "minor". Thank you. DrKay (talk) 22:02, 4 March 2018 (UTC)

Invitation to WikiProject Portals
The Portals WikiProject has been rebooted.
You are invited to join, and participate in the effort to revitalize and improve the Portal system and all the portals in it.
There are sections on the WikiProject page dedicated to tasks (including WikiGnome tasks too), and areas on the talk page for discussing the improvement and automation of the various features of portals.
Many complaints have been lodged in the RfC to delete all portals, pointing out their various problems. They say that many portals are not maintained, or have fallen out of date, are useless, etc. Many of the !votes indicate that the editors who posted them simply don't believe in the potential of portals anymore.
It's time to change all that. Let's give them reasons to believe in portals, by revitalizing them.
The best response to a deletion nomination is to fix the page that was nominated. The further underway the effort is to improve portals by the time the RfC has run its course, the more of the reasons against portals will no longer apply. RfCs typically run 30 days. There are 19 days left in this one. Let's see how many portals we can update and improve before the RfC is closed, and beyond.
A healthy WikiProject dedicated to supporting and maintaining portals may be the strongest argument of all not to delete.
We may even surprise ourselves and exceed all expectations. Who knows what we will be able to accomplish in what may become the biggest Wikicollaboration in years.
Let's do this.
See ya at the WikiProject!
Sincerely, — The Transhumanist 10:18, 21 April 2018 (UTC)

Thank you very much
The RfC discussion to eliminate portals was closed May 12, with the statement "There exists a strong consensus against deleting or even deprecating portals at this time." This was made possible because you and others came to the rescue. Thank you for speaking up.
By the way, the current issue of the Signpost features an article with interviews about the RfC and the Portals WikiProject.
I'd also like to let you know that the Portals WikiProject is working hard to make sure your support of portals was not in vain. Toward that end, we have been working diligently to innovate portals, while building, updating, upgrading, and maintaining them. The project has grown to 80 members so far, and has become a beehive of activity.
Our two main goals at this time are to automate portals (in terms of refreshing, rotating, and selecting content), and to develop a one-page model in order to make obsolete and eliminate most of the 150,000 subpages from the portal namespace by migrating their functions to the portal base pages, using technologies such as selective transclusion. Please feel free to join in on any of the many threads of development at the WikiProject's talk page, or just stop by to see how we are doing. If you have any questions about portals or portal development, that is the best place to ask them.
If you would like to keep abreast of developments on portals, keep in mind that the project's members receive updates on their talk pages. The updates are also posted here, for your convenience.
Again, we can't thank you enough for your support of portals, and we hope to make you proud of your decision. Sincerely, — The Transhumanist 10:48, 25 May 2018 (UTC)

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Timeline of volcanism on Earth, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Tambora (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.)

Hello, I'm MelbourneStar. I noticed that you recently removed content from Prime Minister of Australia without adequately explaining why. In the future, it would be helpful to others if you described your changes to Wikipedia with an accurate edit summary. If this was a mistake, don't worry; the removed content has been restored. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page.

Timeline of United States history (2010–present) moved to draftspace
An article you recently created, Timeline of United States history (2010–present), 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.

The article Timeline of investigations into Trump and Russia (2019) has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:
Personally I am of the opinion that it is a little premature to create a long list of events that are still several months away, if they even happen at all
While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.
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.
Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. — Matthew Wong (at PMA), 13:35, 28 November 2018 (UTC)
Nomination of Timeline of investigations into Trump and Russia (2019) for deletion
A discussion is taking place as to whether the article Timeline of investigations into Trump and Russia (2019) is suitable for inclusion in Wikipedia according to Wikipedia's policies and guidelines or whether it should be deleted.
The article will be discussed at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Timeline of investigations into Trump and Russia (2019) until a consensus is reached, and anyone, including you, is welcome to contribute to the discussion. The nomination will explain the policies and guidelines which are of concern. The discussion focuses on high-quality evidence and our policies and guidelines.
Users may edit the article during the discussion, including to improve the article to address concerns raised in the discussion. However, do not remove the article-for-deletion notice from the top of the article. — Matthew Wong (at PMA), 14:06, 28 November 2018 (UTC)
November 2018
Please be careful about what you say to people. Some remarks, such as your addition to Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Timeline of investigations into Trump and Russia (2019) can easily be misinterpreted, or viewed as harassment. Wikipedia is a supportive environment, where contributors should feel comfortable and safe while editing. Please stop taking my comments out of context. Your responses have become argumentative and accusatory and I am increasingly becoming concerned by your remarks. — Matthew Wong (at PMA), 15:40, 28 November 2018 (UTC)
- They weren't taken out of context. You know that. It appears that you haven't read any of the proceeding timeline articles. If you had, you would have noticed that the Russia investigations are ongoing and are not going to end within the current calendar year, which is currently coming to an end. As to harassment, I thought that was what you are doing. Arglebargle79 (talk) 15:54, 28 November 2018 (UTC)
December 2018
Hello, I'm DannyS712. I noticed that you made an edit concerning content related to a living (or recently deceased) person on Trials of Paul Manafort, but you didn't support your changes with a citation to a reliable source, so I removed it. Wikipedia has a very strict policy concerning how we write about living people, so please help us keep such articles accurate and clear. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you! DannyS712 (talk) 01:32, 9 December 2018 (UTC)

Disambiguation link notification for December 25
An automated process has detected that when you recently edited List of minor planets and comets visited by spacecraft, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page File (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver).
(Opt-out instructions.) --DPL bot (talk) 09:26, 25 December 2018 (UTC)
In regard to this edit, the Democratic National Committee has not actually announced the criteria for candidates to participate in the presidential debates yet. They are planning to do so in January. This is indicated both in the cited source [1] and here, for example:
Anticipating a large field of candidates, the first two debates – scheduled for June and July of 2019 – would be guided by a generous qualifying criteria yet to be determined, according to Perez.
"We need more than polling to measure participation," he told reporters on a conference call. "There will be an alternative pathway to participation."
He listed the demonstration of grassroots fundraising as a potential way for low-polling candidates to make the initial stages, but stressed he was still assessing the exact metric to be used. The thresholds for the first two debates will be released in January.
So I am planning to change that edit back, but if you would be willing to do so, that would be fine with me. --Metropolitan90 (talk) 03:02, 28 December 2018 (UTC)
December 2018
Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, articles should not be moved, as you did to United States federal government shutdown of December 2018, without good reason. They should have a name that is both accurate and intuitive. Wikipedia has some guidelines in place to help with this. Generally, a page should only be moved to a new title if the current name doesn't follow these guidelines. Also, if a page move is being discussed, consensus needs to be reached before anybody moves the page. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Since this would clash with the naming conventions of the other shutdowns, please gain consensus for this first. Jasper Deng (talk) 12:47, 30 December 2018 (UTC)
- does December 2018 end tomorrow night? If somehow there's a December 32, 2018 on tuesday, then you would be right to do this, but all calanders say otherwise.!Arglebargle79 (talk) 12:56, 30 December 2018 (UTC)

American politics discretionary sanctions notice
This is a standard message to notify contributors about an administrative ruling in effect. It does not imply that there are any issues with your contributions to date.
You have recently shown interest in post-1932 politics of the United States and closely related people. Due to past disruption in this topic area, a more stringent set of rules called discretionary sanctions is in effect. Any administrator may impose sanctions on editors who do not strictly follow Wikipedia's policies, or the page-specific restrictions, when making edits related to the topic.
For additional information, please see the guidance on discretionary sanctions and the Arbitration Committee's decision here. If you have any questions, or any doubts regarding what edits are appropriate, you are welcome to discuss them with me or any other editor.

This user, who has a total of three previous edits, used his fourth edit to level a sockpuppet accusation at you. I haven't looked into it at all because it seems like an awfully trolling thing to do, but I figured you should at least know about it. Beeblebrox (talk) 22:40, 29 January 2019 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of 2020 Democratic Party presidential candidates
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 2020 Democratic Party presidential candidates, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G4 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page appears to be a repost of material that was previously deleted following a deletion discussion, such as at Articles for deletion. When a page has substantially identical content to that of a page deleted after a discussion, and any changes in the content do not address the reasons for which the material was previously deleted, it may be deleted at any time.
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. 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.

 Translat-a-thon NYC 2019 @ LaGuardia Community College is hosting the second annual Wikipedia Translatathon! At this event on Thursday evening and during the day Friday this week, anyone from the public is invited to LaGuardia to join students, professors, and CUNY faculty in translating Wikipedia articles among any languages which attendees understand. Themes for this event include public health and the history of New York City. New York City has a large immigrant population and great diversity of speakers of various languages. Among all schools in New York City, LaGuardia has the highest percentage of immigrant students, the highest percentage of students who speak a language other than English as their first language, and the greatest representation of language diversity. It is a strength of LaGuardia that it can present "Wikipedia translatathons", which are Wikipedia translation events. | |
