Hello! BinaryPhoton, you are invited to join other new editors and friendly hosts in the Teahouse, an awesome place to meet people, ask questions, and learn more about Wikipedia. Please join us! Rosiestep (talk) 04:04, 19 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

The article Randy Wayne (biologist) has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

This article was already deleted since it did not state notability, nor provide proper secondary sources and citations. This is the same article, without any improvements.

While all contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the ((proposed deletion/dated)) notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing ((proposed deletion/dated)) will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.

Hello, I'm Psychonaut. I noticed that you made a change to an article, Randy Wayne (biologist), but you didn't provide a reliable source. It's been removed 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. In particular, an interview with an academic (and by a student, no less) cannot be used to establish the validity of a theory he is promoting. Please also refer to our policy on self-promotion.

Welcome to Wikipedia. Thank you for reverting your recent experiment with the page Simon Henry Gage. Please take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to our encyclopedia. If you would like to experiment further, please use the sandbox instead, as someone could see your test before you revert it. Please don't corrupt the encyclopedia, even temporarily. If you want to create a new article, just go ahead and do so as a new article, or as a user subpage, but don't over-write an existing article as you did here. For 2 1/2 hours a reader looking for Gage would have found your text about Spanswick: if you'd been distracted or called away before you replaced the Gage content, it might have been much longer. (I was led here because you'd linked to a disambiguation page I'd created, so I got a "notification"). PamD 21:32, 4 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Rather than create a new page as your User page, it would be better to put it in a subpage: create either User:BinaryPhoton/Spanswick or User:BinaryPhoton/Sandbox. (Just click to create, and then copy the article into the new page). Your user page should be about you, rather than someone else: if it wasn't that Spanswick has a date of death, someone coming across your user page might assume that you were he and were creating an autobiographical article. PamD 22:04, 4 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, BinaryPhoton. I'm writing to let you know that your user page, User:BinaryPhoton, may be in violation of our user page guideline. See in particular the section which begins, "Userspace is not a free web host and should not be used to indefinitely host pages that look like articles, old revisions, or deleted content, or your preferred version of disputed content." It appears that you are using your user page to host a version of the Randy Wayne (biologist) article that is greatly expanded and considerably more promotional in tone. You may recall that the original article you posted was also much longer and more promotional before being the community pared it down and improved the sourcing to meet our quality standards.

Could I suggest that if there is any novel material on User:BinaryPhoton which meets our content policies (in particular verifiability, neutral point of view, and no original research), you merge this into the main Randy Wayne article? Following this, please delete your user-space copy, or at least drastically modify it so that it does not run afoul of WP:FAKEARTICLE. You can delete pages in your own user space by adding the template ((db-userreq)) anywhere on the page. —Psychonaut (talk) 07:10, 3 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

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.

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Okie from Muskogee (song), you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page David Peel.

Your recent editing history at Dissident shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war. To resolve the content dispute, please do not revert or change the edits of others when you are reverted. Instead of reverting, please use the article's talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. The best practice at this stage is to discuss, not edit-war. See BRD for how this is done. If discussions reach an impasse, you can then post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection.

Being involved in an edit war can result in your being blocked from editing—especially if you violate the three-revert rule, which states that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Also keep in mind that while violating the three-revert rule often leads to a block, you can still be blocked for edit warring—even if you don't violate the three-revert rule—should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly. - üser:Altenmann >t 14:37, 6 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, BinaryPhoton. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places, or things you have written about in the article Randy Wayne (biologist), you may have a conflict of interest (COI). Editors with a COI may be unduly influenced by their connection to the topic, and it is important when editing Wikipedia articles that such connections be completely transparent. See the conflict of interest guideline and FAQ for organizations for more information. In particular, we ask that you please:

• avoid editing or creating articles related to you and your family, friends, school, company, club, or organization, as well as any competing companies' projects or products;
• instead, you are encouraged to propose changes on the Talk pages of affected article(s) (see the ((request edit)) template);
• when discussing affected articles, disclose your COI (see WP:DISCLOSE);
• avoid linking to the Wikipedia article or to the website of your organization in other articles (see WP:SPAM);
• exercise great caution so that you do not violate Wikipedia's content policies.

In addition, you must disclose your employer, client, and affiliation with respect to any contribution for which you receive, or expect to receive, compensation (see WP:PAID).

Please take a few moments to read and review Wikipedia's policies regarding conflicts of interest, especially those pertaining to neutral point of view, sourcing and autobiographies. Thank you. - üser:Altenmann >t 14:40, 6 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I added ((userpage)) to your user page because it was written in the style of a Wikipedia article. Likely the page should be blanked because you are duplicating a Wikipedia article in mainspace which per WP:FAKEARTICLE which says "Actual fake articles should be deleted as incompatible with the purpose of the project". If you do not like the ((userpage)) banner please use some other way to distinguish the content of your user page from the Wikipedia article. Thank you. Jbh^Talk 16:48, 12 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I hope it looks more appropriate now. BinaryPhoton (talk) 18:31, 12 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you. You may want to look at WP:NOTWEBHOST and WP:USERPAGE for general guidelines. Also, are you saying you are the person named? Your userpage is ambiguous about that. If you are, Randy Wayne (biologist) and wish it to be known then your userpage should not be written as if it is about a third party (Other editors may assume you are that person and may get in trouble on a technicality unless you say so outright). Also, you should contact WP:OTRS to verify your identity. This is something Wikipedia does to protect living people who have articles against impersonation - no accusation, there have just been some bad cases that we would like to avoid any potential repeat of. There are also Conflict of interest issues, as mentioned above, which would need to be addressed.

If you are not claiming to be Randy Wayne (biologist) then the material on your user page should be deleted per WP:FAKEARTICLE. My primary concern is addressing the identity issue and the confusion that can be caused by your userpage. You are not required to say who you are but you do need to clear up the ambiguity. Cheers.

Hello! Thank you for your recent contributions to Roger M. Spanswick. I did have one note for you. I am working on a maintenance project to clean up Category:Pages using infoboxes with thumbnail images. In the future, please do not use thumbnails when adding images to an infobox (see WP:INFOBOXIMAGE). What does this mean? Well in the infobox, when you specify the image you wish to use, instead of doing it like this:

|image=[[File:SomeImage.jpg|thumb|Some image caption]]

Instead just supply the name of the image. So in this case you can simply do:

|image=SomeImage.jpg.

There will then be a separate parameter for the image caption such as |caption=Some image caption. Please note that this is a generic form message I am leaving on your page because you recently added a thumbnail to an infobox. The specific parameters for the image and caption may be different for the infobox you are using! Please consult the Template page for the infobox being used to see better documentation. Thanks!!

A couple of years back, you added a poem to the article Morris Bishop. As this poem seems to have first been published in 1946, I infer from this list that it is copyright and is due to remain so until 2041. (Although I'd guess that a revised Mickey Mouse Protection Act will further delay its transition to the public domain ... if human life on the planet lasts that long.) I therefore abridged the quotation drastically. I hope you understand.

I'd guess that a major reason for your interest in this poem is its subject, just one of many that Bishop wittily touched on. But as you might have a broader interest in this figure from Cornell's past, I thought I'd let you know that the article, though still quite unsatisfactory, has tripled in bulk over the last two months. I have no connection to Cornell (and regret to say that I have read nothing of Bishop's serious work); perhaps you know somebody who might be interested in further adding to the article? -- Hoary (talk) 07:11, 23 August 2017 (UTC) (about to disappear from Wikipedia for three weeks or so).[reply]

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

This submission is not adequately supported by reliable sources. Reliable sources are required so that information can be verified. If you need help with referencing, please see Referencing for beginners and Citing sources.

Neologisms are not considered suitable for Wikipedia unless they receive substantial use and press coverage; this requires strong evidence in independent, reliable, published sources. Links to sites specifically intended to promote the neologism itself do not establish its notability.

 The comment the reviewer left was:

Not clear how this is independently notable.

Please check the submission for any additional comments left by the reviewer. You are encouraged to edit the submission to address the issues raised and resubmit when they have been resolved.

• If you would like to continue working on the submission, go to Draft:Rainbow Bridge (Literature) and click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window.
• If you now believe the draft cannot meet Wikipedia's standards or do not wish to progress it further, you may request deletion. Please go to Draft:Rainbow Bridge (Literature), click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window, add "((db-self))" at the top of the draft text and click the blue "publish changes" button to save this edit.
• If you do not make any further changes to your draft, in 6 months, it will be considered abandoned and may be deleted.

Thank you for your edit to the disambiguation page Rainbow Bridge. However, please note that disambiguation pages are not articles; rather, they are meant to help readers find a specific article quickly and easily. From the disambiguation dos and don'ts, you should:

• Only list articles that readers might reasonably be looking for
• Use short sentence fragment descriptions, with no punctuation at the end
• Use exactly one navigable link ("blue link") in each entry
  • Only add a "red link" if used in existing articles, and include a "blue link" to an appropriate article
• Do not pipe links (unless style requires it) – keep the full title of the article visible
• Do not insert external links or references

Hi there, I'm HasteurBot. I just wanted to let you know that Draft:Rainbow Bridge (literature), a page you created, has not been edited in 5 months. The Articles for Creation space is not an indefinite storage location for content that is not appropriate for articlespace.

If your submission is not edited soon, it could be nominated for deletion. If you would like to attempt to save it, you will need to improve it.

You may request Userfication of the content if it meets requirements.

If the deletion has already occured, instructions on how you may be able to retrieve it are available at WP:REFUND/G13.

Thank you for your attention. HasteurBot (talk) 01:32, 5 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, BinaryPhoton. It has been over six months since you last edited the Articles for Creation submission or Draft page you started, "Rainbow Bridge".

In accordance with our policy that Wikipedia is not for the indefinite hosting of material deemed unsuitable for the encyclopedia mainspace, the draft has been nominated for deletion. If you plan on working on it further, or editing it to address the issues raised if it was declined, simply edit the submission and remove the ((db-afc)), ((db-draft)), or ((db-g13)) code.

If your submission has already been deleted by the time you get there, and you wish to retrieve it, you can request its undeletion by following the instructions at this link. An administrator will, in most cases, restore the submission so you can continue to work on it.

Thank you for your submission to Wikipedia! Bkissin (talk) 20:37, 9 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

This page should not be speedily deleted because... (your reason here) --BinaryPhoton (talk) 21:27, 25 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I understand Wikipedia's interesting in not hosting a free webpage. I also believe that there is a lot of nastiness and ad hominem attacks online because things are anonymous. I take responsibility for everything I write. You can look at my contributions page and see that I have edited in good faith a wide range of articles in a vast array of subjects and have never been nasty and have never made ad hominem attacks. Even if I were anonymous I would not be nasty nor make ad hominem attacks. But I put myself out there in case someone thinks I did something inappropriate--so like this speedy deletion--there can be rational debate.

Wikipedia is not for hosting your CV. It has nothing to do with ad hominem attacks or anything of the sort. You're welcome to continue editing productively within Wikipedia guidelines. Star Mississippi 22:53, 25 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

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

Please check the submission for any additional comments left by the reviewer. You are encouraged to edit the submission to address the issues raised and resubmit after they have been resolved.

• If you would like to continue working on the submission, go to Draft:The Babbling Beaver and click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window.
• If you do not edit your draft in the next 6 months, it will be considered abandoned and may be deleted.
• If you need any assistance, or have experienced any untoward behavior associated with this submission, you can ask for help at the Articles for creation help desk, on the reviewer's talk page or use Wikipedia's real-time chat help from experienced editors.
