Hi, 44 Gabriel. Thanks for patrolling new pages. I've declined your deletion request for a page that you tagged for speedy deletion, because the criterion you used or the reason you gave does not cover this kind of page. Please take a moment to read the new tutorial for patrollers, criteria for speedy deletion, and particularly, the section covering non-criteria. Such pages are best tagged with proposed deletion or proposed deletion for biographies of living persons, or sent to the appropriate deletion discussion. Thanks! 2601:5CC:8300:A7F0:E0C1:A3E1:922:144 (talk) 13:51, 28 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, I'm Liz. I wanted to let you know that one or more of your recent contributions have been undone because they did not appear constructive. If you would like to experiment, please use your sandbox. If you have any questions, you can ask for assistance at the Teahouse or the Help desk. Thanks. Liz ^{Read!

Hi @Liz, why can't these pages that have no history or other affluent pages or anything literally be deleted? There is no rule that allows this, in fact I even wonder if I create an infinite number of redirects if no one is going to delete them the way you have done, even if I have no use for it. Can you help me select or indicate the correct criteria to use? 44 Gabriel (talk) 08:04, 21 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Liz. Why am I going to use test pages or my sandbox if the intention is to delete the same ones that are empty, without tributaries, without history! 44 Gabriel (talk) 08:07, 21 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Please stop. If you continue to vandalize Wikipedia, as you did at Vitoria-ASC, you may be blocked from editing. ✗plicit 11:13, 21 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Copyright violation

Hello, 44Gabriel. While checking over the Estádio D. Afonso Henriques article, I found that you copied text from an outside source with this edit. That is a copyright violation. I have removed the initial text I've noticed (although there may still be more.) Please do not copy text from other sources. Doing so usually constitutes both a copyright violation and plagiarism. This general rule includes copying material from websites of charity or non-profit organizations, educational, scholarly and news publications, and all sources without a copyright notice. For further information, you should review WP:COPYPASTE. If you have questions, please ask. — CactusWriter ^(talk) 01:26, 6 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

By the way, you wouldn't mind giving your opinion in the discussion of the merger or elimination, whichever is best from the article Estádio D. Afonso Henriques (1965). This is because there were only 3 articles that said that there were 2 different stadiums in Guimarães, when that is not true. However, I put it up for discussion on the Spanish wiki and the merger has already taken place there, on the Dutch wiki a consensus has already been reached and it will be held in the merger soon. However, on the English wiki, no one seems to be interested in this, nor do they even respond. Am I doing something wrong or in the wrong place, at least from what I read they say to have a discussion next to the article, while in the previous two there is a dedicated space for discussion and so it was very simple, convenient and effective!? 44 Gabriel (talk) 10:17, 6 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Good mornig @CactusWriter. What I did was translate the Portuguese article into English, because the article was quite simplistic, or now articles are only translated when they don't exist. In any case, the references are there to prove it. But of course I know that copying paste shouldn't be done and that wasn't the intention. 44 Gabriel (talk) 09:44, 6 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for explaining. That's understandable. For future reference, it's always a good idea to be cautious when copying text from other sources -- including translations from other Wikipedias. Not all Wikis have the same level of oversight and review. I can take a look at the merge discussion and see if I have a qualified opinion on the subject. — CactusWriter ^(talk) 16:44, 6 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@MPGuy2824:Hi, what are you referring to, was doing something like I did in this edition?

By the way, you wouldn't mind giving your opinion in the discussion of the merger or elimination, whichever is best from the article Estádio D. Afonso Henriques (1965). This is because there were only 3 articles that said that there were 2 different stadiums in Guimarães, when that is not true. However, I put it up for discussion on the Spanish wiki and the merger has already taken place there, same on the Dutch wiki. However, on the English wiki, no one seems to be interested in this, nor do they even respond. Am I doing something wrong or in the wrong place, at least from what I read they say to have a discussion next to the article, while in the previous two there is a dedicated space for discussion and so it was very simple, convenient and effective!? 44 Gabriel (talk) 09:09, 8 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Adding refs: Yup, that's kind of what I meant.
Merger discussion: You've put it in the right place. It is possible that the folks who comment on most of the merger discussions are off-wiki (or at low-activity). I wouldn't recommend that you close the discussion yourself or do the merger unilaterally, given that there has been some objection. Have patience, more editors will respond eventually. -MPGuy2824 (talk) 09:36, 8 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I think so too, thanks 44 Gabriel (talk) 09:57, 8 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
