NBA deals

These (like Trendon Watford) need to be completed and officially announced before being updated on Wikipedia. Please wait until the Blazers or the NBA announce the deal. Thanks. Rikster2 (talk) 22:32, 31 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

November 2021

Hello, I'm Larry Hockett. I noticed that you added or changed content in an article, 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. You can have a look at referencing for beginners. If you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. Larry Hockett (Talk) 23:25, 13 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Hugo Besson picture

Hi. Just in relation to the Hugo Besson picture you uploaded – what date was this picture taken? The image date of 27 June 2022 is obviously the upload date. Can you provide the actual date for better context? If that was from a "pre draft event", it would have to be before 23 June. Thanks. DaHuzyBru (talk) 03:32, 28 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

It was taken on June 22, the day before the draft in New York. XiNevett (talk) 03:38, 28 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Cool, thanks. Can you please adjust the image date on Commons? DaHuzyBru (talk) 03:56, 28 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I see you have a history of uploading images that aren't yours on Commons. I have therefore reverted the image you added. DaHuzyBru (talk) 15:32, 28 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Reliable sources

Hello, I noticed that you changed the height of Victor Wembanyama without giving any sources. Please note: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Reliable_sources Cheers. --Zamekrizeni (talk) 08:37, 28 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Your submission at Articles for creation: Anthony Black (June 28)

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed! Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reason left by Slywriter was:

This submission's references do not show that the subject qualifies for a Wikipedia article—that is, they do not show significant coverage (not just passing mentions) about the subject in published, reliable, secondary sources that are independent of the subject (see the guidelines on the notability of people). Before any resubmission, additional references meeting these criteria should be added (see technical help and learn about mistakes to avoid when addressing this issue). If no additional references exist, the subject is not suitable for Wikipedia.

The comment the reviewer left was:

WP:TOOSOON as subject does not meet collegiate sport guidelines at WP:NSPORT

Anthony Black (basketball) moved to draftspace - Fails WP:NBASKETBALL

An article you recently created, Anthony Black (basketball), is not suitable as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. (?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of "Draft:" before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page. 🇺🇦 Fiddle^Timtrent Faddle^Talk to me 🇺🇦 17:34, 28 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Moving drafts to mainspace too early

There is a by-product of doing this that you may be unaware of. If, instead of moving the article back to Draft:Anthony Black (basketball) I had chosen to send it to WP:AFD, something I had considered and which woudl have been valid to do, it woudl have been deleted (0.9 probability).

The problem then arises that creating an article for Black becomes more difficult, because the new version is compared with the deleted version. If it is not substantially different then it is vulnerable to speedy deletion. I'm pretty sure that this woudl not be what you wish to happen.

This athlete appears to be too early in their career to merit an article in Wikipedia. You may disagree. If you do it is up to you to prove that they are worthy of an article. 🇺🇦 Fiddle^Timtrent Faddle^Talk to me 🇺🇦 17:41, 28 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Oh, and creating two versions is a big no-no. It smacks of an attempt to game the system. Please never allow yourself to be vulnerable to an accusation of doing that 🇺🇦 Fiddle^Timtrent Faddle^Talk to me 🇺🇦 17:42, 28 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I realized my mistake was that I considered him a college basketball player when the guidelines state that it is too early for me to do that. I’ve updated the draft, using Amari Bailey’s page as reference, alongside Keyonte George’s page. I’ve also added a section for an external link to his USA Basketball bio. I’ve resubmitted the draft for review. Thank you for the feedback. XiNevett (talk) 20:35, 28 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Another reviewer will look at this. I almost never make a second review. 🇺🇦 Fiddle^Timtrent Faddle^Talk to me 🇺🇦 22:50, 28 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

August 2022

Please do not remove maintenance templates from pages on Wikipedia, as you did to Draft:Anthony Black (basketball), without resolving the problem that the template refers to, or giving a valid reason for the removal in the edit summary. Your removal of this template does not appear constructive, and has been reverted. The record of declines of a draft says not to remove it. That means not to remove it.
