Regarding on Draft:Doors (Roblox game)[edit]

@TheTechie, this is CSM, an AFC patroller. Just for clarity, I was reviewing the article and found that you had denied twice. From my perspective, the user is failing to address the issues you said on comments. Also he was adding few sources, still not making upto the mark on qualifying this article. I have one question. Is social media (YT, X (twitter), etc.) may not fill the criteria? ☮️Counter-Strike:Mention 269🕉️^{(🗨️ ● ✉️ ● 📔)} 04:51, 18 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, @CSMention269,

Yes, Twitter and FB, etc. are considered self published sources, so you cannot count them as reliable. If they keep ignoring the AFC comments, feel free to reject the draft, meaning that they cannot resubmit it further (assuming you are an AFC reviewer and have AFC helper, you can just use the decline option, select "reject", then select the option that says "subject is not notable". It'll post a message saying "this subject is not sufficiently notable for inclusion in Wikipedia".) Feel free to reply with any more questions and thanks for patrolling.

Best, thetechie@enwiki: ~/talk/ $ 17:44, 19 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

iPad Pro Display Citation.[edit]

Hello there, I wanted to use "apple.com" as my citation but I was worried its a broad web page and doesn't cover only the iPad, even in the iPad subsection... By the way, what are canned edit summaries? Dulton100 (talk) 17:54, 20 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Dulton100 Please stop copy pasting comments on your talk page to mine. It just makes it more irritating. I have replied on your own talk page. thetechie@enwiki: ~/talk/ $ 23:59, 20 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Blocked socks[edit]

Please stop commenting at the Talk pages of blocked socks. It's not helpful, and in some cases what you say is incorrect. Thanks.--Bbb23 (talk) 01:44, 21 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Bbb23 Thank you for the explanation. thetechie@enwiki: ~/talk/ $ 01:44, 21 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

You've continued to do this after this message, as well as inappropriately tagging an unblocked user as a sock. Please stop. You are not experienced enough to be dealing with these sorts of issues. Spicy (talk) 01:57, 21 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Spicy Okay. thetechie@enwiki: ~/talk/ $ 01:58, 21 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

This is very similar to what I was getting at in the ANI thread where you continued to post on an indefinitely banned user's talk page, requiring that user's talk page access to be revoked. It's unhelpful and disruptive and would be used against you in any RfA. BoldGnome (talk) 02:23, 21 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

What you say is utterly confusing. Even another admin said there was nothing wrong with it. Please mind your own business, I will work this out with Spicy and Bbb23. thetechie@enwiki: ~/talk/ $ 02:29, 21 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Your attempts to demonstrate your abilities as an administrator hopeful are disruptive and not isolated to commenting on the pages of blocked sock puppets. BoldGnome (talk) 02:35, 21 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I accept how my recent edits could be viewed as disruptive, but I don't see how the Lkomdis edit was disruptive. thetechie@enwiki: ~/talk/ $ 02:41, 21 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I'm just very confused because I was told by an experienced admin in the case of Lkomdis that there was nothing wrong with my edits, please stop blaming a user who is just trying to help this encylopedia, regardless of account age. The Blade of Northern Lights clearly said: I don't see anything wrong with what TheTechie did here, it was Lkomdis who made things weird. Who knows what I might do next, I might just leave Wikipedia, all things considered. thetechie@enwiki: ~/talk/ $ 02:41, 21 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Bbb23 @Spicy Sorry about the mishap today, for both writing on a sock talk page (I should've done it on the sockmaster) and the template thing (I got confused as the template "an editor has raised a concern"). My bad. thetechie@enwiki: ~/talk/ $ 02:33, 21 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The issue isn't that you posted on the sock's talk page instead of the sockmaster's. You should not be making a habit of commenting on the talk pages of blocked users. Spicy (talk) 03:52, 21 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
