I have removed your PROD notice because the article has already been PRODded once, and restored after a request at WP:REFUND#Callum James Greens. WP:Proposed deletion is intended only for uncontroversial deletions; an article deleted by PROD is automatically restored on request and, since it is then clear that deletion is not uncontroversial, it cannot be PRODded again. If you think this should be deleted, you will have to nominate it at WP:Articles for deletion which will start a discussion, normally lasting seven days. Regards, JohnCD (talk) 11:38, 12 August 2015 (UTC)

[edit]Hello, I'm Mattythewhite. I noticed that you made a change to an article, Álvaro Morata, 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! If you need guidance on referencing, please see the referencing for beginners tutorial, or if you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. Mattythewhite (talk) 18:47, 19 July 2017 (UTC)
Please do not add or change content, as you did at Álvaro Morata, without citing a reliable source. Please review the guidelines at Wikipedia:Citing sources and take this opportunity to add references to the article. Thank you. Mattythewhite (talk) 19:47, 19 July 2017 (UTC)
Disambiguation link notification for September 7
[edit]Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Sam Lowes, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Alex Marquez (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.)
It's OK to remove this message. Also, to stop receiving these messages, follow these opt-out instructions. Thanks, DPL bot (talk) 08:03, 7 September 2019 (UTC)
Clive Tyldesley
[edit]Instead of edit warring, perhaps you could provide a better source than one that clearly cribbed its notes from Wikipedia. The claim that Tyldesley is called 'The Ghanaian' is not supported by the original source you provided when you added the claim in 2016 (see here and here), so now you're trying to get it in via the back door thanks to a source that copied its info from Wikipedia. This nickname is not used anywhere in the world, except apparently by you in service to your perception that he is somehow biased towards Ghana. Whether or not he was biased in his commentary at the 2010 World Cup is irrelevant, since you cannot back up the claim that the nickname is in widespread use. Now stop reverting or you'll get reported. – PeeJay 13:35, 9 October 2020 (UTC)
- Actually, fuck it, I'm reporting you anyway. See you at WP:ANI. – PeeJay 13:36, 9 October 2020 (UTC)
keep it civil. No need for 4 letter words.--Endofcity (talk) 13:55, 9 October 2020 (UTC)
The nickname is in widespread use in Scotland. It's not widely published (as you would expect) but it can be found on the website cited.--Endofcity (talk) 13:55, 9 October 2020 (UTC)
- I'll swear if I fucking want, thanks. You have no evidence for this nickname, it was never in use when you first added the claim to the article, and the source you have since added doesn't claim anything like "widespread use". It's not even in the source you provided in 2018, let alone the current one. – PeeJay 13:47, 9 October 2020 (UTC)
I think lowering yourself to swearing and getting yourself very worked up about something this trivial says a lot more about you than it does about me.--Endofcity (talk) 13:55, 9 October 2020 (UTC)
- I think changing the subject of the discussion to my choice of vocabulary says more about your standing in the discussion than it does about anything else. You're in the wrong. Now you should either admit it and agree to stop spreading misinformation, or just go away. – PeeJay 13:53, 9 October 2020 (UTC)
What is it that's so important about this to you? I don't profess to be an expert on Clive Tyldesley, I was merely passing on information. Now please leave me alone and go and try and annoy someone else because it would take a lot more than this to wind me up.--Endofcity (talk) 14:03, 9 October 2020 (UTC)
- It's important to me that information on Wikipedia is accurate. This addition was not accurate when you added it, and it still isn't supported by a reliable source. If you think I'm doing this to annoy you, I think that betrays your intentions a lot more than it does mine. You protest too much. – PeeJay 14:09, 9 October 2020 (UTC)
There is currently a discussion at Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents regarding an issue with which you may have been involved. Thank you. – PeeJay 13:48, 9 October 2020 (UTC)
- PeeJay - if a user asks you not to swear on their talk page, basic common decency should tell you that you shouldn't swear on their talk page. Cut it out.
- Endofcity - we are cautious with BLPs, per WP:BLP. I'm not seeing any reliable sources that support the assertion that 'the Ghanaian' is a widely used nickname for this person - the assertion might be true, but to be included in an article the assertion needs to be verifiabile as well as true, which means that it has to be supported by sources; we also need to consider whether it is DUE - is it a significant enough fact to mention. I'd be happy to take a quick look at any sources you want to put forward, but my instincts based on what I've seen tell me that we should just leave this out.

Aleix Espargaro
[edit]About your text "Aleix Espargaró is one of only 3 riders in the current MotoGP class who has never won a Grand Prix in any class, the others being Iker Lecuona and Espargaró's teammate, Lorenzo Savadori." (This text no reference)
wiki biography is not commentary or opinion or news, you can see on the statistic page about win, podium, pole, etc Ibuku (talk) 14:39, 9 April 2021 (UTC)
Yes - but it is still an interesting fact because normally one would expect competitors in the MotoGP category to have one at least one race in another category, hence the reason there are just 3 of them.Endofcity (talk) 09:13, 10 April 2021 (UTC)

[edit]Hello, I'm Suonii180. I noticed that you made an edit concerning content related to a living (or recently deceased) person on Daniel Sloss, but you didn't support your changes with a citation to a reliable source. It's been removed and archived in the page history for now. 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! Suonii180 (talk) 20:21, 8 September 2024 (UTC)
