Your GA nomination of Borussia Dortmund
[edit]The article Borussia Dortmund you nominated as a good article has failed ; see Talk:Borussia Dortmund for reasons why the nomination failed. If or when these points have been taken care of, you may apply for a new nomination of the article. Message delivered by Legobot, on behalf of Kosack -- Kosack (talk) 19:42, 11 February 2020 (UTC)

[edit] Hello, I'm Berrely. I noticed that in this edit to Gongoozle, you removed content without adequately explaining why. In the future, it would be helpful to others if you described your changes to Wikipedia with an edit summary. If this was a mistake, don't worry, the removed content has been restored. 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. — Yours, Berrely • Talk∕Contribs 18:46, 19 August 2020 (UTC)

Unsourced edits
[edit] Hello, I'm Yamla. I noticed that you added or changed content in an article, Microsoft Flight Simulator (2020 video game), but you didn't provide a reliable source. It's been removed and archived in the page history for now, but if you'd like to include a citation and re-add it, please do so. You can have a look at the tutorial on citing sources. If you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. --Yamla (talk) 18:32, 27 August 2020 (UTC)
Please use descriptive edit summaries
[edit] Hello. This is a message to let you know that you have made an edit summary, to List of Google Easter eggs that did not appear to be appropriate, civil or otherwise constructive, and it may have been removed. If you think a mistake was made, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. I don't appreciate being shouted at in an edit summary, especially when the appropriate action would have been for you to take your dispute to the article talk page, where we could have discussed it. Adding a reference for you claim in the first place would have mitigated the need for all this extra work.

- To editor Fred Gandt: So sorry about that. My edits get reverted a lot, and it makes me pretty mad. Brotato The Great (talk) 18:28, 27 October 2020 (UTC)
- You'll see a link to WP:COOL in the welcome template another editor gave you at the top of this page. There are many helpful links in that template (I helped make it). Keeping a cool head around here is important. Don't take it personally when your edits are challenged. Follow the "Bold, Revert, Discuss" procedure and concentrate on the quality of the content. You corrected misinformation in the page, but as your change was contrary to the references, it constituted "original research" and therefor reversion is only proper. I'm glad the article is improved by our combined efforts, as you should be. I hope the next time our paths cross, the productive result will be less antagonistic and more collaborative :)

An article you recently created, Fotmob, 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.

If your submission is not edited soon, it could be nominated for deletion under CSD G13. If you would like to attempt to save it, you will need to improve it. You may request userfication of the content if it meets requirements.

Your draft article, Draft:Fotmob
[edit]![](http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/1/1d/Information_icon4.svg/48px-Information_icon4.svg.png)
Hello, Brotato The Great. It has been over six months since you last edited the Articles for Creation submission or Draft page you started, "Fotmob".
In accordance with our policy that Wikipedia is not for the indefinite hosting of material deemed unsuitable for the encyclopedia mainspace, the draft has been deleted. If you plan on working on it further and you wish to retrieve it, you can request its undeletion. An administrator will, in most cases, restore the submission so you can continue to work on it.
Thanks for your submission to Wikipedia, and happy editing. Liz Read! Talk! 16:05, 28 April 2021 (UTC)
