Disambiguation link notification for June 18

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited How I Met Your Mother, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Lukewarm (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

List of awards and nominations received by Adam Sandler

Under our biography of living persons policy, there must be sources for derogatory text, such as the copious references to his being "worst actor" that you are inserting in this list article. This has been discussed very recently at length in the Wikipedia film project and at AN/I, and the consensus was that such references to the "Razzie" must be independently sourced. That is, by someone other than the issuer of the parody "award." Coretheapple (talk) 13:34, 24 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy deletion nomination of File:Anna Chlumsky Emmys 2014.jpeg

A tag has been placed on File:Anna Chlumsky Emmys 2014.jpeg requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section F7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is a non-free file with a clearly invalid licensing tag; or it otherwise fails some part of the non-free content criteria. If you can find a valid tag that expresses why the file can be used under the fair use guidelines, please replace the current tag with that tag. If no such tag exists, please add the {{Non-free fair use}} tag, along with a brief explanation of why this constitutes fair use of the file. If the file has been deleted, you can re-upload it, but please ensure you place the correct tag on it.

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 "Click here to 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 removed 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.

WP:NPOV and WP:SYNTHESIS

Hi there, please familiarize yourself with WP:NPOV, and WP:SYNTHESIS. Your edit here is problematic for both reasons. "Universal acclaim" is hyperbole that has no place in an encyclopedic article. Unless every critic in the universe can be documented as thinking the film was impeccable, this phrasing should never be included in an article. Metacritic's "universal acclaim" summary is not a fact, it's an opinion. Rotten Tomatoes has a pass/fail rating system of Fresh and Rotten. We do not say, "This film was rotten", so we should never say, "this film received universal acclaim". Please do not present opinions as facts. If this distinction is confusing for you, please avoid making edits like this in the future, because it will be considered disruptive. Thanks. Cyphoidbomb (talk) 03:39, 9 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

ArbCom elections are now open!

Hi,
You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.

December 2015

Please do not add original research or novel syntheses of published material to articles as you apparently did to Boogie Nights. Please cite a reliable source for all of your contributions. Please stop making these types of edits without providing reliable sources. You were advised of this previously. DonIago (talk) 14:24, 7 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Copying from one article to another

Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you copied or moved text from American Crime Story into another page. While you are welcome to re-use Wikipedia's content, here or elsewhere, Wikipedia's licensing does require that you provide attribution to the original contributor(s). When copying within Wikipedia, this is supplied at minimum in an edit summary at the page into which you've copied content. It is good practice, especially if copying is extensive, to also place a properly formatted {{copied}} template on the talk pages of the source and destination. The attribution has been provided for this situation, but if you have copied material between pages before, even if it was a long time ago, please provide attribution for that duplication. You can read more about the procedure and the reasons at Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia. Thank you. Dark Cocoa Frosting (talk) 21:30, 20 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]

March 2016

Hi there! Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia.

When editing Wikipedia, there is a field labeled "Edit summary" below the main edit box. It looks like this:

Edit summary (Briefly describe your changes)

Please be sure to provide a summary of every edit you make, even if you write only the briefest of summaries. The summaries are very helpful to people browsing an article's history.

Edit summary content is visible in:

Please use the edit summary to explain your reasoning for the edit, or a summary of what the edit changes. Thanks! ChamithN (talk) 16:07, 30 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Wikipedia, as you did at Frank Underwood (House of Cards). Your edits appear to constitute vandalism and have been reverted or removed. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. Repeated vandalism can result in the loss of editing privileges. Thank you.

Deletion discussion about Lester Nygaard

Hello, Joef1234,

I wanted to let you know that there's a discussion about whether Lester Nygaard should be deleted. Your comments are welcome at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Lester Nygaard .

If you're new to the process, articles for deletion is a group discussion (not a vote!) that usually lasts seven days. If you need it, there is a guide on how to contribute. Last but not least, you are highly encouraged to continue improving the article; just be sure not to remove the tag about the deletion nomination from the top.

Thanks, TheLongTone (talk) 11:24, 9 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Ghostbusters

I wanted to drop you a line that I reverted your recent edit at Ghostbusters (2016 film). In the middle of a contentious debate, a major, controversial action like this should be given clear transparency on the article talk page. You removed this statement without providing an explanation in that discussion, and therefore, it is likely to be viewed as hostile. I've restored the content for now, but if you'd like to push again for its removal, please do so at the talk page. Thank you. --GoneIn60 (talk) 19:22, 13 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]
