Hello! Could you kindly explain your query in detail? Thank You. Kpddg ^(talk) 05:03, 11 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I'm guessing that you want help with the sandbox draft you have at User:Cmcmill/sandbox. First, writing about yourself on Wikipedia is strongly discouraged. Be sure to read the advice at autobiography.

Right now, your draft has zero references, so it's completely unsuited to being an encyclopedia article. If you decide you still want to pursue this after reading the above advice, you must supply published references; essentially every statement you make in the draft must have a footnote/citation. Things that you know about yourself, but don't have a published source for, will simply have to be omitted.

Also, until you have a published article, it is not time to insert yourself in the 'notable alumni' list at South Oak Cliff High School. — jmcgnh^{(talk) (contribs)} 07:19, 11 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

January 2022

Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. We appreciate your contributions; however, it appears you may have written a Wikipedia article, or a draft for a Wikipedia article, about yourself. Creating an autobiography is strongly discouraged – please see our guideline on writing autobiographies. If you create such an article, it may be deleted. If what you have done in life is genuinely notable and can be verified according to our policy for articles about living people, someone else will probably create an article about you sooner or later (see Wikipedians with articles). If you wish to add to or change an existing article about yourself, you are welcome to propose the changes by visiting the article's talk page. Please understand that this is an encyclopedia and not a personal web space or social networking site. If your article has already been deleted, please see: Why was the page I created deleted?, and if you feel the deletion was an error, please discuss this with the deleting administrator. Thank you. Theroadislong (talk) 18:34, 16 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, Cmcmill, welcome to Wikipedia and thank you for your contributions. Your editing pattern indicates that you may be using multiple accounts or coordinating editing with people outside Wikipedia, such as Charles McMillian (talk · contribs). Our policy on multiple accounts usually does not allow this, and users who misuse multiple accounts may be blocked from editing. If you operate multiple accounts directly or with the help of another person, please disclose these connections. Thank you. Theroadislong (talk) 17:14, 18 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Your submission at Articles for creation: Charles McMillian (January 17)

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed! Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reason left by Rusalkii 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.

January 2022

You have been blocked indefinitely from editing because it appears that you are not here to build an encyclopedia.

If you think there are good reasons for being unblocked, please read the guide to appealing blocks, then add the following text below the block notice on your talk page: {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}}. HickoryOughtShirt?4 (talk) 03:41, 19 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

This user's unblock request has been reviewed by an administrator, who declined the request. Other administrators may also review this block, but should not override the decision without good reason (see the blocking policy).

Cmcmill (block log • active blocks • global blocks • contribs • deleted contribs • filter log • creation log • change block settings • unblock • checkuser (log))

Request reason:

Hello, My username is Cmcmill and I would like to appeal the block on my account. My reason for being blocked is because I am a beginner in Wikipedia and I did not know how to submit citations correctly. After my account had been blocked after submitting it incorrectly multiple times, I asked my sister(Laflines8) to create an account and help me to submit. We found out that I had not been creating my citations correctly. I only want to add my contributions to my alma mater, South Oak Cliff High School. Her sandbox link with the correct citations are: https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User:Laflines8/sandbox&redirect=no

Decline reason:

You are blocked for promoting yourself, or at least someone close to you, but have not addressed this. Yamla (talk) 20:56, 24 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

If you want to make any further unblock requests, please read the guide to appealing blocks first, then use the {{unblock}} template again. If you make too many unconvincing or disruptive unblock requests, you may be prevented from editing this page until your block has expired. Do not remove this unblock review while you are blocked.
