Hi Calmecac5! I’ve noticed that you have an interest in editing the 2020 coronavirus pandemic in Mexico page. I will only kindly ask you if could use the citation templates because that is the best way to include references and to cite in Wikipedia. I would also ask you include the name if your sources in Spanish (when the source is in Spanish) because the translated titles you include are not translated properly. You can include the parameter of |trans-title= to the citation template in order to add the title in English. Kind regards. Davidmejoradas (talk) 19:53, 16 April 2020 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited 2020 in United States politics and government, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page John Lewis. Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)

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

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:Víctor Manuel Toledo 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:Víctor Manuel Toledo, click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window, add "((Db-g7))" 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.
• If you need any assistance, 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.

Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to vandalize Wikipedia, as you did at 2020 United States House of Representatives elections in Massachusetts, you may be blocked from editing. Your edit regarding Auchincloss' previous comments and policies do not belong in the declared candidate section. Pennsylvania2 (talk) 20:54, 4 September 2020 (UTC)Reply[reply]

"Even if misguided, willfully against consensus, or disruptive, any good-faith effort to improve the encyclopedia is not vandalism. For example, edit warring over how exactly to present encyclopedic content is not vandalism. Careful consideration may be required to differentiate between edits that are beneficial, edits that are detrimental but well-intentioned, and edits that are vandalism. If it is clear that an editor is intending to improve Wikipedia, their edits are not vandalism, even if they violate some core policy of Wikipedia. Mislabeling good-faith edits "vandalism" can be harmful, as it makes users less likely to respond to corrective advice or to engage collaboratively during a disagreement. For that reason, avoid using the term "vandalism" unless it is clear the user means to harm Wikipedia; this is even true when warning a user with a standard warning template. Choose the template that most closely matches the behavior you are trying to correct."Wikipedia:VandalismCalmecac5 (talk) 21:07, 4 September 2020 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Hello there. I noticed you made this edit to the 2020 in Egypt page. I appreciate that you added Yousef Wali's death. However, whenever adding anyone's death, or any event in general, to any Year in Country page, please make a new month subsection for that person's death instead of saying "August and September" or "August to September." I separated it out but please in the future, if you add a death or event that happened in a month without a existing section, just make a new section for that month. Thanks. Dan the Animator 21:12, 10 September 2020 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Dear Calmecac5

I love that you cited sources on Talk:Public holidays in the United States. In two different places on the page, no less. However, the citations’ footnotes became dislodged (to the bottom of the page) as new sections were added below yours. To ensure that the footnotes stay where intended, please follow the following instructions:

On a WP Talk page, with its panoply of disparate topics, each segregated into sections, inline citations are relevant only to the section where inserted. So, their footnotes should stay put, even after the addition of new sections below. Citation template ((reflist talk)) to the rescue. Insert the wikitext in between the last citation and your signature to keep the footnotes from straying. Caveat: To preserve any existing indention present beforehand, be sure to apply the same number of colons found at the beginning of the copy to the user’s signature as well (because the template is inserted between the last </ref> tag and the signature, the latter’s indention goes missing).

I already employed said remedy on Talk page Talk:Public holidays in the United States, so please review the results at your leisure. Apachegila (talk) 13:35, 11 September 2020 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Wikipedia, as you did at 2020_in_Panama. Your edits appear to constitute vandalism and have been reverted. If you would like to experiment, please use your sandbox. Repeated vandalism may result in the loss of editing privileges. Please follow the formatting for Year in Country pages Calmecac5. In Year in Country pages holidays/celebrations are not included unless there is something particular notable about that specific one in that specific year. Also, Year in Country pages should NEVER have a holidays/celebrations section. The only sections that Year in Country pages should have are Incumbents, Events, Predicted/Scheduled events, Deaths, See also, References, and External links. Please check the 2020 in the United States, 2020 in Ireland, or 2020 in the United Kingdom pages. Dan the Animator 23:46, 14 September 2020 (UTC)Reply[reply]

A discussion is taking place as to whether the article Pío López Obrador is suitable for inclusion in Wikipedia according to Wikipedia's policies and guidelines or whether it should be deleted.

The nomination will explain the policies and guidelines which are of concern. The discussion focuses on high-quality evidence and our policies and guidelines.

Hello Calmecac5. It's great that you have decided to update and maintain the article 2020 in Mexico; could i point out something to you, though? You'll notice, if you look at the history of the article, that several times when you edit your edit needs to be modified so that the reference is formatted correctly. To prevent this happening you can fill in the Cite web template in such a way that you don't put "www." in the "work=" parameter. In other words, yesterday you added ((cite news |title=Gobierno federal acusa a red de políticos y a dos familias de acaparar agua en Chihuahua |url=https://www.msn.com/es-mx/noticias/mexico/gobierno-federal-acusa-a-red-de-pol%c3%adticos-y-a-dos-familias-de-acaparar-agua-en-chihuahua/ar-BB19qmm6?ocid=msedgdhp |accessdate=Sep 25, 2020 |work=www.msn.com |publisher=Animal Politico |date=September 25, 2020)) this, but if you had put ((cite news |title=Gobierno federal acusa a red de políticos y a dos familias de acaparar agua en Chihuahua |url=https://www.msn.com/es-mx/noticias/mexico/gobierno-federal-acusa-a-red-de-pol%c3%adticos-y-a-dos-familias-de-acaparar-agua-en-chihuahua/ar-BB19qmm6?ocid=msedgdhp |accessdate=Sep 25, 2020 |work=msn.com |publisher=Animal Politico |date=September 25, 2020)) this (i have highlighted in bold the parameter which changes) there would have been no ugly red error message at the bottom of the page, and no need for another editor to edit the article after you. I hope this is clear (if not, please ask me ~ i'll be watching this talk page for a while), and easy to follow; happy days, Lindsay^Hello 10:39, 26 September 2020 (UTC)Reply[reply]

This is a standard message to notify contributors about an administrative ruling in effect. It does not imply that there are any issues with your contributions to date.

You have shown interest in post-1932 politics of the United States and closely related people. Due to past disruption in this topic area, a more stringent set of rules called discretionary sanctions is in effect. Any administrator may impose sanctions on editors who do not strictly follow Wikipedia's policies, or the page-specific restrictions, when making edits related to the topic.

For additional information, please see the guidance on discretionary sanctions and the Arbitration Committee's decision here. If you have any questions, or any doubts regarding what edits are appropriate, you are welcome to discuss them with me or any other editor.

I reverted your edit to El Paso, Texas. While it is common knowledge to most American readers, it should be backed by a reliable source for the benefit of others and for the benefit of those reading the page years from now.

More importantly - and this is why I reverted instead of just putting ((citation needed)) on it - the bit about "stiffing" the city needs to be re-written in a neutral, encyclopedic tone. Please find reliable sources to back up the two statements - that the rally was held, and that the bills have not been paid - then redo the edit.

Hello. 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:

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. With a Wikipedia account you can give yourself a reminder to add an edit summary by setting Preferences → Editing → Prompt me when entering a blank edit summary. Thanks!

I looked through your last 1,500 edits and didn't notice a single edit summary. You have made over 5,000 edits in the 8 months you have been editing--quite a lot. I am suprised you have not learned this beginner's rule.

The article has been assessed as List-Class, which is recorded on its talk page. You may like to take a look at the grading scheme to see how you can improve the article.

Since you have made at least 10 edits over more than four days, you can now create articles yourself without posting a request. However, you may continue submitting work to Articles for creation if you prefer.

If you have any questions, you are welcome to ask at the help desk. Once you have made at least 10 edits and had an account for at least four days, you will have the option to create articles yourself without posting a request to Articles for creation.

If you would like to help us improve this process, please consider leaving us some feedback.

Thanks again, and happy editing!

Your tireless edits are appreciated immensely. I would sincerely, however, recommend that you use the original sources of articles instead of MSN and Yahoo! News wherever possible. WP:LINKROT is a serious issue on Wikipedia, and both of these – MSN especially – are notorious for it. For starters, to my knowledge, you can't properly archive a Yahoo! News article because it has a 'Continue story' button, which means only part of the article is archived. Furthermore, MSN constantly removes articles before even a year, meaning we need to either find another source or put up an archive if too much time has passed and other sources are down too. Your contributions are appreciated immensely, but link rot "destabilizes" those edits, so to speak, and makes it so that other editors have to find the original source, a mirror, or an archive in order to restabilize them should they go down.
