Speedy deletion declined: Lal Babu Pandit

Hello TheQ Editor. I am just letting you know that I declined the speedy deletion of Lal Babu Pandit, a page you tagged for speedy deletion, because of the following concern: The subject of the article is easily identifiable. Thank you. Martijn Hoekstra (talk) 22:19, 8 April 2014 (UTC)

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed! Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time.
Please read the comments left by the reviewer on your submission. You are encouraged to edit the submission to address the issues raised and resubmit when they have been resolved.

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Kenwood Elementary School (Bowling Green, Ohio), you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Bowling Green (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.

Article on German Society

Hello TheQ Editor! Thank you for your note on my talk page regarding the article on the German Society of Montreal. I am in the process of adding more information and doing more research on the history and current work of the Society. 1835-2014 is a long time period to cover in a condense and informative way appropriate for Wikipedia :) One questions-- is it better to add the information bit-by-bit as its ready or should I wait until the article is completed and then upload it all at once? — Preceding unsigned comment added by NicoAhn (talkcontribs) 17:43, 18 April 2014 (UTC)

I think we should add it bit by bit. Don't hold back the information. And just make sure that the statements are comleteTheQ Editor (Talk) 17:46, 18 April 2014 (UTC)

Incomplete DYK nomination

Hello! Your submission of Template:Did you know nominations/Eric Walters at the Did You Know nominations page is not complete; see step 3 of the nomination procedure. If you do not want to continue with the nomination, tag the nomination page with {{db-g7}}, or ask a DYK admin. Thank you. DYKHousekeepingBot (talk) 20:24, 22 April 2014 (UTC)

I'm sorry, but schools below high school level are not considered "notable" enough for a Wikipedia article unless there is something really extraordinary about them - ancient, notorious, architectural award winner, something like that. I've redirected the article to the school district, which is standard practice. Sorry to waste your work on the article. We could take it to WP:Articles for Deletion, but I can guarantee the result unless you can pull some very different information out of the hat to add to the article.

Re:GAN

Thanks for the review. I've attempted to address your concerns. JimmyBlackwing (talk) 21:54, 23 April 2014 (UTC)

GA reviewing

I saw that you promoted Thief II: The Metal Age and that it was your first time reviewing a Good Article. Great to see people reviewing but next time when you're done reviewing an article, failing or passing it, you should add a template on the talk page showing the outcome of the review. I helped you out on that here. GamerPro64 02:34, 24 April 2014 (UTC)

Okay, got it. ThanksTheQ Editor (Talk) 13:14, 24 April 2014 (UTC)

Puerto Rico Classic

Hi

Thanks for you help in creating this page, for reference I have removed your tags for categories of sports competitions and golf as these are not generally used for individual events where more appropriate subcategories are available, I have therefore changed these to PGA latinoamerica events, Golf in Puerto Rico and Recurring sporting events established in 2012. I hope you agree that this is a more appropriate categorisation.

Also the leader board would not normally be included for golf tournaments outside of the major championships, world golf championships or where otherwise considered exceptionally notable, I have not removed this from the article but I think that there is a high chance that it may be removed as not important enough at some point in the future.

Regards

Tom Tracland (talk) 20:46, 24 April 2014 (UTC)

Revert

I just thought I'd leave a personal message instead of a template. While your edit was made in good faith, Wikipedia is not an instruction manual nor a strategy guide. If you were to create your own blog or video game blog for that, that would be more sufficient. It's just not what Wikipedia is about. Nonetheless, I know it was made in good faith and I won't hold it against you. Tutelary (talk) 20:04, 28 April 2014 (UTC)

Thanks, I didn't know that. I'll be sure to not to do that again.TheQ Editor (Talk) 20:06, 28 April 2014 (UTC)

Motto of the Day Help Request April 2014

Motto of the Day (WP:MOTD) is in a state of emergency and really needs your help! There are not enough editors who are reviewing or nominating mottos at Wikipedia:Motto of the day/Nominations/In review, and this probably means that you will notice a red link or “This space for rent” as our mottos for the next weeks and months.

Please take a moment to review the nominations and nominate your own new mottos at Wikipedia:Motto of the day/Nominations/In review and Wikipedia:Motto of the day/Nominations/'Specials. Any help would be appreciated! MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 09:13, 29 April 2014 (UTC)

This message has been sent by pjoef on behalf of Motto of the Day to all editors of the English Wikipedia who are showing MOTD's templates on their pages, and to all the participants to MOTD: (page, template, and category).

Hello, regarding this edit to Carnarvon, Western Australia, that link change was incorrect; the original link didn't work, but your new link was also broken. It would've been better to remove the dead link altogether, which I've done. Graham87 06:20, 30 April 2014 (UTC)

It didn't work? Oh, when I tried it, it worked. But thanks!

Possible Compromise?

I just wanted to ask you to example all of your online accounts. The userpage replacement with 'blaah' might be someone logging onto your Wikipedia account with the intent to vandalize. I recommend that you change your passwords, update anti-virus software, and rexamine your desktop environment. (I'm just concerned about it. If you genuinely don't remember doing it, catching a compromised account early is quite important.) Tutelary (talk) 16:43, 2 May 2014 (UTC)

No, that's okay. I found out, it was my friend that was messing around with my computer when I went to the WashroomTheQ Editor (Talk) 16:45, 2 May 2014 (UTC)
At least it wasn't a possible trojan. Glad for that! Thanks for keeping me posted. Tutelary (talk) 16:46, 2 May 2014 (UTC)

Guestbook

Hey TheQ, how are you? I hope fine. In your guestbook page you have added a star for users who signed you book. But I'm afraid the time you've added there is not good. It says 4 April which is not really good. So why don't you create something like User:TheQ Editor/Guestbook Award or blah blah, and paste

{| style="border: 1px solid gray; background-color: #fdffe7;"
|rowspan="2" valign="middle" | {{#ifeq:{{{2}}}|alt|[[File:Kindness Barnstar Hires.png|100px]]|[[Image:Random_Acts_of_Kindness_Barnstar.png|100px]]}}
|rowspan="2" |
|style="font-size: x-large; padding: 0; vertical-align: middle; height: 1.1em;" | '''The Guestbook Barnstar'''
|-
|style="vertical-align: middle; border-top: 1px solid gray;" | Thank you very much for signing my guestbook. [[User:TheQ Editor|TheQ Editor]] ([[User talk:TheQ Editor|talk]]) {{<includeonly>subst:</includeonly>timestamp}}
|}

into that? Then you use something like

==A Barnstar for you==
After you sign it, please accept this barnstar. You can add it to your userpage by pasting <tt><nowiki>{{subst:User: TheQ Editor/Guestbook ...}}</nowiki></tt>
{{User:TheQ Editor/Guestbook ...}}

You use {{User:TheQ Editor/Guestbook ...}} to display the star. I hope you like the idea, but this is fully up to you. Thanks for reading this topic. --Pratyya (Hello!) 15:25, 5 May 2014 (UTC)

Hi @Morwen:, to answer your question regarding the speedy deletion. It was my own fault of doing a speedy delete. I am sorry for that. But on the other hand, according to MOS:Disambiguation, if a disambiguation page contains only 2 articles, please consider using hatnotes instead. Thanks,TheQ Editor (Talk) 20:14, 12 May 2014 (UTC)

A barnstar for you!

The Barnstar of Good Humor!
Hello TheQ Editor.Recently you have signed my guestbook! Thank you very much for signing my guestbook. Cheers.--Pratyya (Hello!) 14:19, 17 May 2014 (UTC)


PS; Sorry for the delay. I had some real life issues. --Pratyya (Hello!) 14:19, 17 May 2014 (UTC)

Your request for rollback

Hi TheQ Editor/Archive Apr-May 2014. After reviewing your request for rollback, I have enabled rollback on your account. Keep in mind these things when going to use rollback:

  • Getting rollback is no more momentous than installing Twinkle.
  • Rollback should be used to revert clear cases of vandalism only, and not good faith edits.
  • Rollback should never be used to edit war.
  • If abused, rollback rights can be revoked.
  • Use common sense.

If you no longer want rollback, contact me and I'll remove it. Also, for some more information on how to use rollback, see Wikipedia:New admin school/Rollback (even though you're not an admin). I'm sure you'll do great with rollback, but feel free to leave me a message on my talk page if you run into troubles or have any questions about appropriate/inappropriate use of rollback. Thank you for helping to reduce vandalism. Happy editing! kelapstick(bainuu) 21:22, 17 May 2014 (UTC)

Also note, when you see a page such as was at Paola s2 (I saw you did some reversion on it while checking contributions), brand new, with perfect formatting and referencing, and very long, you can almost always bet that is a copy/paste from another Wikipedia article, with the name and details changed. In this case it was copied from Patrik Lindberg. Cheers, and happy rollbacking. --kelapstick(bainuu) 21:25, 17 May 2014 (UTC)

Removal of content

Thanks for your message which reads: "Hello, I'm TheQ Editor. I noticed that you recently removed some content from Foss Leach without explaining why. In the future, it would be helpful..". I am a new contributor to Wikipedia. This article I wrote generated a lot of adverse comments from Wikipedia. I felt it would be sensible to remove most of the content and add it slowly back by smaller amounts and see if I could understand which portions were generating the adverse comments. It was not all clear to me why my article caused such a negative response.122.59.188.57 (talk) 17:59, 21 May 2014 (UTC)

Hi IP adress, thanks for adressing your concern. If it is in that case, you should first move the discussion to the article's talk page here. Every article has a talk page, look at the top right corner. Press new section at the top right corner and address your concern in a specific manner, then you can discuss it with other people. If at the end, it seems reasonable to delete some content, do it and write an edit summary too. Another Way is just create a page called Talk:Foss Leach/Rewrite and you can rewrite the article. If you are still having trouble, you can contact us at the Teahouse. I sent out an invitation. Thanks, TheQ Editor (Talk) 21:47, 21 May 2014 (UTC)

Hello. Your account has been granted the "reviewer" userright, allowing you to review other users' edits on pages protected by pending changes. The list of articles awaiting review is located at Special:PendingChanges, while the list of articles that have pending changes protection turned on is located at Special:StablePages.

Adrian Holtzman AFD

At Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Adrian Holtzman, you mentioned that "no reliable source could be found about Michael Alston on the web." Alston is the photographer credited with taking the photos used on the Adrian Holtzman page; he is irrelevant to the discussion at hand. Please indicate that you mistyped your comment, or else please reevaluate the article regarding Holtzman's notability, not Alston's. WikiDan61ChatMe!ReadMe!! 12:12, 23 May 2014 (UTC)

Catchphrase editing question

Hello, I had a question about an edit I had made on the Catchphrase Wikipedia page. It's a UK game show. I recently was on the ITV Press Office Page where they announced that the next celebrity episode featuring Jo Brand would air on 1 June, so I copied the link to the press release and updated the Wikipedia page with the source which is definitely valid as it comes from the network. The page was semi-protected so I had to wait, as I am not registered, but I was certain it would be accepted as it was accompanied by a valid source, but twice it was reverted. I tried asking a question about why it was reverted but received no answer. I don't understand what i did wrong. I thought that the point of Wikipedia editing was providing a valid source. Can you please explain why my edit was reverted twice when I did nothing wrong? Thanks in advance184.160.203.195 (talk) 18:29, 23 May 2014 (UTC)samusek2

Hi IP address, thank you for messaging me. First of all, I would say sorry for reverting your change as it was all an accident. While reverting the change someone else made after you, I accidentally reverted your change too. I had now re-added it and in the correct format. Thank you for notifying me. Happy Editing!TheQ Editor (Talk) 19:32, 23 May 2014 (UTC)

Signature

Your signature disrupts the way surrounding text displays because of the part <font size="3">. Can you take that part out of your signature? --AmaryllisGardener talk 12:39, 24 May 2014 (UTC)

Hi AmaryllisGardener, thank you for messaging me, but can you please explain to me how the <font size="3"> part disrupts the text around it. I don't see any difference. Thanks, TheQ Editor (Talk) 14:28, 24 May 2014 (UTC)
(talk page stalker) Use of <font> is against WP:SIG policy anyway, as I learned recently when someone edited my sig on their talk page! (I've changed my sig now.) PamD 16:41, 24 May 2014 (UTC)
Oh, okay. I fixed it now. Thanks! TheQ Editor (Talk) 17:04, 24 May 2014 (UTC)

I just cannot avoid you, can I? Even when I try. Your name comes up on my talk, on recent changes, on requests for permissions, on other user's talk pages, everywhere that I look, you're there, and that deserves something. Congrats! Lixxx235 (talk) 19:42, 26 May 2014 (UTC)
Also, would you mind coming up with a signature design for me? I don't care what, I just need to get rid of this one. Thanks! No worries if you can't. --Lixxx235 (talk) 19:43, 26 May 2014 (UTC)
Thank you very much. And I'll try to come up with some signature designs. But let me tell you, I'm no HTML or CSS master.TheQ Editor (Talk) 19:52, 26 May 2014 (UTC)
Thanks. I can handle the code, I just need ideas for the design. Cheers! --Lixxx235 (talk) 20:05, 26 May 2014 (UTC)
Hi @Lixxx235:, I don't know about how you would like your signature (font, color, other features), so I made a sheet called User talk:TheQ Editor/Signature. I hope you find it useful. Cheers,TheQ Editor (Talk) 22:38, 26 May 2014 (UTC)

GA review request

Hey TheQ Editor! It's nice to see that new users are liking to stay here in Wikipedia. I noticed in your userpage that you are accepting GA reviews. Can you review Paige (wrestler) to become GA? If you want I could something in return like reviewing another GA article of yours. Thanks and happy editing! FairyTailRocks 12:51, 27 May 2014 (UTC)

Hi @FairyTailRocks:, No problems, I'll try my best to review it for GA. Cheers,TheQ Editor (Talk) 17:02, 27 May 2014 (UTC)
Thank you very much! Especially the barnstar due to being the fact you're the first one who gave me that token of appreciation. Again, thank you! FairyTailRocks 13:14, 29 May 2014 (UTC)

19:53, 17 May 2014‎ TheQ Editor (talk | contribs)‎ . . (30,504 bytes) (+15,732)‎ . . (Reverted 4 edits by Nukuoro2 (talk): Unexplained content removal. (TW)) (undo | thank)

I am very concerned that my submission appears to be so deficient, but as I became a user in order to write this profile of Foss Leach I suppose it is not surprising, and I will appreciate further guidance as to how to make it acceptable.

Because my first attempt at preparing the article generated so many adverse responses I was initially baffled to know how best to address the various issues. I decided that one approach might be to simplify the article, by removing almost all of the content and starting afresh. I thought that I would add a paragraph at a time and save it and see what, if any, comments appeared in the banner at the top. Then I could make revisions to a smaller body of text until the editors decided it was acceptable, and then add some new text, etc.

Unfortunately, my attempt to employ this strategy resulted in an even worse problem of the editors intervening and undoing my removals.

I hope this explains my behaviour to your satisfaction. regards Janet Davidson. Nukuoro2 (talk) 18:34, 27 May 2014 (UTC)

Hi @Nukuoro2:, and thank you for addressing your concern. If it is this case, I am sorry. Next time you remove content from a page, you may want to describe your changes in an edit summary. You may go and remove the content again with an accurate edit summary. Thanks, TheQ Editor (Talk) 19:30, 27 May 2014 (UTC)

Requesting GA review

Hi there, I see you are accepting requests to do GA reviews. I am currently waiting for a reviewer for Antonín Kinský and would really appreciate your time. Thanks, C679 19:32, 30 May 2014 (UTC)

Hi @Cloudz679:. Sure, I'll take it. But be warned that it may take longer than my usual reviews as I have a very tight scedule this week. Thanks, TheQ Editor (Talk) 19:35, 30 May 2014 (UTC)

That's fantastic, no problem if it takes longer, I'm grateful to you for starting it. Thanks, C679 20:02, 30 May 2014 (UTC)

I don't want to bombard you with requests, but can you review Mikkeli? I understand you're busy, so I'm ok with waiting a few weeks. Thanks. --AmaryllisGardener talk 19:43, 30 May 2014 (UTC)
Hi @AmaryllisGardener:. I can do that. I'm still waiting for my adoptee to respond.TheQ Editor (Talk) 19:54, 30 May 2014 (UTC)
I just received this: [1] The sig says: "Message delivered by Legobot, on behalf of 135.0.154.61". You know anything about it? --AmaryllisGardener talk 20:04, 30 May 2014 (UTC)
Oh, that's our good friend Legobot. Usually, reviewers just pick articles from WP:GAN. So LegoBot just goes and alert them that their article is being reviewed. They will alert them when it is finished and when the article passes or fails.TheQ Editor (Talk) 20:08, 30 May 2014 (UTC)
Oh, ok. --AmaryllisGardener talk 20:09, 30 May 2014 (UTC)

Fixing other user's posts

Hey TheQ Editor. Your last edit at the Teahouse just happened to cross my eye while looking at my watchlist and I know you made it in good faith. I just thought I'd mention that, as opposed to article and administrative pages, we generally avoid touching other user's posts unless it's the most ministerial of changes and ones that might that cause a problem for third parties, like a non-working link because of a typo that is given as advice to someone but they wonlt be able to access it because of that typo. Please see Wikipedia:Talk page guidelines#Others' comments. I personally do not want my posts, typos and all, ever touched by anyone unless the fix is of the sort I just mentioned.--Fuhghettaboutit (talk) 23:35, 31 May 2014 (UTC)

And, oh yes, this would apply to my typo above, in "wonlt":-)--Fuhghettaboutit (talk) 23:46, 31 May 2014 (UTC)
