Pages in your personal sandbox are not allowed to be categorized as if they were finished articles. This is not a suggestion that you're free to ignore, it's an absolute rule that you must follow. Bearcat (talk) 16:19, 7 August 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]

@BearcatI am not ignoring a rule, I am asking for you to reference that rule. This should be a simple process for a Veteran editor when asked by another editor.Demt1298 (talk) 16:21, 7 August 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]

It's at WP:USERNOCAT, which I already linked in my edit summaries and thus already provided you a "reference" for, which means that you're "demanding" that I do something that I already did. Bearcat (talk) 16:23, 7 August 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]

@Bearcat I apologize that I didn't recognize your edit summary as your reference, I guess the brevity of it confused me. But thank you for improving my understanding of Wikipedia. I will make sure I do a better job trying to understand an editors shorthand, even if they haven't clearly explained it. And after requesting with the word please, which was responded to with digital yelling. I appreciate all guidance more experienced editors provide, no matter how it is accomplished.

Hi there, Demt1298, and welcome to Women in Red. It's good to have someone interested in sports as a new member. You no doubt have some candidates for biographies in mind but if not you can browse through our Redlist index. You'll also find useful guidance in our essays. Please let me know if you run into any difficulties or need assistance. Happy editing!--Ipigott (talk) 19:02, 26 August 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Hello, I'm Qwerfjkl (bot). I have automatically detected that this edit performed by you, on the page Britannia Manor, may have introduced referencing errors. They are as follows:

• A "bare URL and missing title" error. References show this error when they do not have a title. Please edit the article to add the appropriate title parameter to the reference. (Fix | Ask for help)

Please check this page and fix the errors highlighted. If you think this is a false positive, you can report it to my operator. Thanks, Qwerfjkl (bot) (talk) 17:14, 29 August 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Hey, I was just wondering how come you tagged Hiddensee (island) with WikiProject Nudity in this diff? The article was created by someone else and is currently a content fork of Hiddensee, which was tagged with WikiProject Germany and WikiProject Islands, so I’ve done the same for Hiddensee (island). Unless Hiddensee is well known for nudity or something? I don’t know much about the topic since I’ve only stumbled across these pages as a New Pages Reviewer. Fork99 (talk) 18:38, 5 September 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]

It came up in WP Nudity as a potential article to be included in the WikiProject because of the information under sights and museums about being textile free. The purpose of tagging it into WP Nudity is so other editors in that project can review this bit of information and see if there is more information to expand on within this article. I did a quick look at the Hiddensee article and it doesn't reference anything about nudity, so this is information specifically in the Hiddensee (island) article. On a personal side not, living in Germany for 3 years I noted that nudity is more widely accepted there and it tends to be around bodies of water, but I do not have any personal experience or knowledge related to Hiddensee.

@R. Henrik Nilsson Thank you for finding a typing error, did you fix it? Demt1298 (talk) 20:16, 24 September 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]

No, I didn't have the guts to change somebody else's user page. But a question is innocent enough, I reckoned. R. Henrik Nilsson (talk) 14:41, 25 September 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]

@R. Henrik Nilsson No problem, which article did you see it on, so I can fix it. Demt1298 (talk) 16:05, 25 September 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]

@Edward-Woodrow: I have been working on clearing Bare URL/CS1 errors. I have 406 updated references to fix bare URLs or CS1 errors. I was working on these prior to you challenge, but figured might as well get something for it. I will keep working on them too. I hope this meets your challenge.

@HeartGlow30797: Under the reward board I choose September 1 and looked under ineligible. I found Ferenc Gyulay and there was not a reference for his death date.

Hello, Demt1298. It has been over six months since you last edited the Articles for Creation submission or draft page you started, "Cybertease".

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! CptViraj (talk) 16:18, 11 December 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Hey, I've noticed you edit quite a few USL pages and so I wanted to mention that I started an unofficial USL editor project/group in one of my userpages. Letting it be a collective place to chart out goals that folks interested in USL can work on individually or collaboratively.

Feel free to edit the page(s) with your own goals or just use it as a reference point for anything you may want to work on.

If nothing else, I appreciate all the edits you do! Happy holidays! Christiangamer7 (talk) 00:12, 19 December 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]

@Christiangamer7 Wow! Strong work you have there. I have only glanced at it, but think it looks good and would like to participate.

Thanks for the invite. I will take a closer look when I have a chance

If you have any constructive criticism for me, let me know. I love to learn more about editing. Happy Holidays! Demt1298 (talk) 00:16, 19 December 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]

WikiProject Unreferenced articles | February 2024 Backlog Drive
There is a substantial backlog of unsourced articles on Wikipedia, and we need your help! The purpose of this drive is to add sources to these unsourced articles and make a meaningful impact. Barnstars will be awarded based on the number of articles cited. Remember to tag your edit summary with [[WP:FEB24]], both to advertise the event and tally the points later using Edit Summary Search. Interested in taking part? Sign up here.

Welcome to the drive! Thank you for joining the effort – one person cannot do much, but together we can do so much more. There's a ton, and i mean a TON of soccer-related articles that are not cited at all. Although the drive hasn't officially began yet, you can test out your citation skills on these articles:

• 2009 FIBA Europe Under-18 Championship
• Strabane F.C.
• SS Rivière Sport
• 2006 J.League Cup
• West New York Burns Club

For soccer match articles, I often find news sources or official webpage of the matches to source the point stats, as these are more reliable than a random score database. Don't hesitate to ask me anything! I am here to help :) CactiStaccingCrane (talk) 06:54, 21 January 2024 (UTC)Reply[reply]
