August 2010

Welcome to Wikipedia. Everyone is welcome to contribute to the encyclopedia, but when you add or change content, as you did to the article The Body Shop, please cite a reliable source for the content of your edit. This helps maintain our policy of verifiability. Take a look at Wikipedia:Citing sources for information about how to cite sources and the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Thank you.

September 2019

Hello, I'm Doniago. I noticed that you added or changed content in an article, Steve Jackson Games, 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 the tutorial on citing sources, or if you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. DonIago (talk) 16:40, 23 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Your draft article, Draft:Erica C. Barnett

Hello, B k. It has been over six months since you last edited the Articles for Creation submission or Draft page you started, "Erica C. Barnett".

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! JMHamo (talk) 11:21, 8 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@JMHamo: Thank you for the notification. I've requested undeletion and will revise if it is undeleted. A number of people who voted for deletion gave a 'too soon' argument: Barnett's book was not yet published, and they argued that post-publication her notability would be higher. The book is out now, so perhaps adding notes on that to the page will bring the article over the notability bar. B k (talk) 01:45, 9 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Nomination of Erica C. Barnett for deletion

A discussion is taking place as to whether the article Erica C. Barnett 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.

Users may edit the article during the discussion, including to improve the article to address concerns raised in the discussion. However, do not remove the article-for-deletion notice from the top of the article. Chetsford (talk) 13:40, 15 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Palestinian enclaves

You deleted what you thought was a duplicated statement. However, it is WP policy that material in the lead section needs to be in the body as well and that's why it was like that. In addition, when you deleted the body, you also deleted the efn definition of the ref, creating an undefined ref error in the lead. Please be more careful in the future. Thank you.Selfstudier (talk) 14:48, 16 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Washington, D.C.

Please discuss on the talk page why an alternative style would be more appropriate, per MOS:VAR. Please do not edit war. Thank you. Magnolia677 (talk) 18:42, 19 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I replied on your page, because I already have a lot of text on the talk page about this topic so I didn't know if you'd see further commentary there. And yes, please give positive reasons for reversions. That text was there already doesn't make it sacred. B k (talk) 18:49, 19 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
