Could you add an image for András Arató

April 2020
Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to introduce jokes into articles, as you did at Wikipedia:April Fools/April Fools' Day 2020, you may be blocked from editing. Wikipedia is a serious encyclopedia, and contributions of this type are considered vandalism. WP:FOOLS #3: All jokes must be acceptable. Jokes that are hateful, discriminatory, and/or are intended to make others feel unwelcome will not be tolerated.[11][b] (This should go without saying; if you think your joke MIGHT be taking it too far DON'T.) —pythoncoder (talk | contribs) 02:01, 1 April 2020 (UTC)
- Text changed to 'Mega Uncool To The Highest Order'. Honestly didn't think people would take it that way but I'm fine. dibbydib Ping me! 💬/✏ 02:08, 1 April 2020 (UTC)
Speedy deletion nomination of Category:Radio stations established in 1911
A tag has been placed on Category:Radio stations established in 1911 requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section C1 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the category has been empty for seven days or more and is not a disambiguation category, a category redirect, a featured topics category, under discussion at Categories for discussion, or a project category that by its nature may become empty on occasion.
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. Liz Read! Talk! 14:17, 2 April 2020 (UTC)
Confusing edit
Why did you do this? ―Justin (koavf)❤T☮C☺M☯ 05:35, 22 April 2020 (UTC)
- @Koavf: I added an extra header. They're general fixes from AutoWikiBrowser which apply changes according to the manual of style, and this was one of them. In this case I applied general fixes to all pages with the category Minecraft (including subcategories). Apparently adding an extra header there is a general fix, and I don't see anything wrong with it. Thanks for asking, though! dibbydib (T ・ C) 07:24, 22 April 2020 (UTC)
- Dibbydib, What extra header is there between this and this? ―Justin (koavf)❤T☮C☺M☯ 07:36, 22 April 2020 (UTC)
