Welcome to Wikipedia. The recent edit you made to Screen Actors Guild Awards has been reverted, as it appears to have removed content from the page without explanation. Use the sandbox for testing; if you believe the edit was constructive, please ensure that you provide an informative edit summary. You may also wish to read the introduction to editing. Thank you. Recognizance (talk) 04:36, 19 May 2009 (UTC)

Hello,

I just transfered the content in the page Actor (Award) because I think that it's more relevant. The official name of the price is the Actor (I reffer myself to the website of the Screen Actors Guild, as well as to IMDB.com and to the ceremony itself that I'm seeing every year. Don' worry, none of the content has dissapeared.

Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Wikipedia, as you did with this edit to the page Screen Actors Guild Award for Outstanding Performance by a Male Actor in a Leading Role. Such edits constitute vandalism and are reverted. Please do not continue to make unconstructive edits to pages; use the sandbox for testing. Thank you. Tiderolls 04:42, 19 May 2009 (UTC)

Please do not vandalize pages, as you did with this edit to Screen Actors Guild Awards. If you continue to do so, you will be blocked from editing. Landon1980 (talk) 04:43, 19 May 2009 (UTC)

I'm sorry, It was totally not my intetion to vandalize. How the sandbox is working?

Proposed deletion of Actor (Award)

A proposed deletion template has been added to the article Actor (Award), suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process.

All contributions are appreciated, but this article may not satisfy Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and the deletion notice should explain why (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}} notice, but please explain why you disagree with the proposed deletion in your edit summary or on its talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised because, even though removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the proposed deletion process, the article may still be deleted if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria or it can be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached. Tiderolls 04:52, 19 May 2009 (UTC)

Reverted:Morocco

Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Wikipedia, as you did with this edit to the page Morocco. Such edits constitute vandalism and are reverted. Especially that it's not the first time you make this particular edit. Please do not continue to make unconstructive edits to pages; use the sandbox for testing. Regards. Tachfin (talk) 22:11, 25 July 2011 (UTC)

Hello ser:Tachfin|Tachfin]] Please provide with sources that say that Morocco is indeed called Ammruk by the Berbers? I am myself from a Chleuh family and I have NEVER heard that name, everyone call it Al Maghrib. With your contributions, I can see that you clearly have berberist positions. But it is Wikipedia so please try to be accurate and not biased. Regards

Proposed deletion of Mona Amarcha

The article Mona Amarcha has been proposed for deletion because, under Wikipedia policy, all newly created biographies of living persons must have at least one reference to a reliable source that directly supports material in the article. The nominator also raised the following concern:

All biographies of living people created after March 18, 2010, must have references.

If you created the article, please don't be offended. Instead, consider improving the article. For help on inserting references, see Referencing for beginners, or ask at the help desk. Once you have provided at least one reliable source, you may remove the {{prod blp}} tag. Please do not remove the tag unless the article is sourced. If you cannot provide such a source within ten days, the article may be deleted, but you can request that it be undeleted when you are ready to add one.

Nomination of Dounia Batma for deletion

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

The article will be discussed at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Dounia Batma until a consensus is reached, and anyone is welcome to contribute to the discussion.

Replaceable fair use File:Mona Amarcha.jpg

Thanks for uploading File:Mona Amarcha.jpg. I noticed the description page specifies that the media is being used under a claim of fair use, but its use in Wikipedia articles fails our first non-free content criterion in that it illustrates a subject for which a freely licensed media could reasonably be found or created that provides substantially the same information or which could be adequately covered with text alone. If you believe this media is not replaceable, please:

1. Go to the media description page and edit it to add {{di-replaceable fair use disputed}}, without deleting the original replaceable fair use template.
2. On the image discussion page, write the reason why this image is not replaceable at all.

Alternatively, you can also choose to replace this non-free media by finding freely licensed media of the same subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or similar) media under a free license, or by taking a picture of it yourself.

If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified how these images fully satisfy our non-free content criteria. You can find a list of description pages you have edited by clicking on this link. Note that even if you follow steps 1 and 2 above, non-free media which could be replaced by freely licensed alternatives will be deleted 2 days after this notification (7 days if uploaded before 13 July 2006), per our non-free content policy. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Eeekster (talk) 08:26, 26 March 2012 (UTC)

Hi. When you recently edited Dounia Batma, you added links pointing to the disambiguation pages Mercedes and Tunisian (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

A file that you uploaded or altered, File:Asma Lamnawar.jpg, has been listed at Wikipedia:Possibly unfree files because its copyright status is unclear or disputed.

Your contributed article, Arab Idol (season 1)

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.

You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

Hello, I noticed that you recently created a new page, Arab Idol (season 1). First, thank you for your contribution; Wikipedia relies solely on the efforts of volunteers such as you. Unfortunately, the page you created covers a topic on which we already have a page – Arab Idol. Because of the duplication, your article has been tagged for speedy deletion. Please note that this is not a comment on you personally and we hope you will continue helping to improve Wikipedia. If the topic of the article you created is one that interests you, then perhaps you would like to help out at Arab Idol – you might like to discuss new information at the article's talk page.

If you think the article you created should remain separate, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, you can place a request here. Additionally if you would like to have someone review articles you create before they go live so they are not nominated for deletion shortly after you post them, allow me to suggest the article creation process and using our search feature to find related information we already have in the encyclopedia. Try not to be discouraged. Wikipedia looks forward to your future contributions. JetBlast (talk) 21:24, 8 April 2013 (UTC)

WP:BRD

When editing, we are generally expected to follow the BRD cycle - make a bold edit, and if it is reverted, discuss and get consensus for that edit. Repeatedly making the same edit when others have reverted it is not well regarded. Please discuss your changes to Yoram Marciano on the talk page, and if you like, request input from WP:Israel or somewhere. Thanks, Number 57 09:54, 29 May 2014 (UTC)

Hello User:Number 57

I am not too familiar with the process of "messaging" through Wikipedia. The problem is that you are the one who is editing my change based on irrelevant motive. "Moroccan Jew" is an actual ethnicity, without to mention that "Moroccan citizenship" is automatically transmitted to kids. Any Israeli of Moroccan ancestry is entitled to Moroccan citizenship. So technically an Israeli-born of Moroccan parents is still considered as a Moroccan Jew. So Yoram Marciano is an Israeli of Moroccan descent, and Israeli of Moroccan-Jewish descent and a Moroccan Jew. Keeping him in the category Moroccan Jew is relevant, so when you click in this category, you can see all the people of Moroccan Jewish descent, wether they come from France, Israel, Canada, or China. Please keep him in the category "Moroccan Jew". Kind regards

No problem. I still disagree though. You should open this up to wider discussion on WT:Israel. If you don't know how to, I can start the discussion for you. Cheers, Number 57 10:37, 29 May 2014 (UTC)

Hello User:Number 57

Thank you. Can you please start the discussion for me please? Thanks in advance my friend

Have done. See Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Israel#Category:Moroccan Jews. Number 57 21:34, 29 May 2014 (UTC)

I see you are still adding the category to the article. I'm afraid that if you do this again, I'm going to request that your account is blocked from editing. Please stop, discuss and get consensus for your edits. If you have no consensus, you can't continue doing the same thing over and over again. Number 57 08:14, 30 May 2014 (UTC)

Ethnicelebs.com and Marriedbiography.com as sources

Hi Bigdoul. I noticed that you recently used Ethnicelebs.com and Marriedbiography.com as sources for biographical information in Madison Beer. Please note that the general consensus as expressed at WP:RSN is that neither meets the reliable sourcing criteria for the inclusion of personal information in such articles. I've gone ahead and removed it. If you disagree, let's discuss it. Thanks.--Hipal/Ronz (talk) 18:56, 6 May 2020 (UTC)

Nicole Elgrissy moved to draftspace

An article you recently created, Nicole Elgrissy, does not have enough sources and citations 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.

Proposed deletion of Where Are You Going Moshé?

The article Where Are You Going Moshé? has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Non notable film. Tagged since 2013. Nothing found in a WP:BEFORE except database sites and showings are film festivals. Not enough to help it pass WP:NFILM.

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages 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 page 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.

Your draft article, Draft:Nicole Elgrissy

Hello, Bigdoul. It has been over six months since you last edited the Articles for Creation submission or Draft page you started, "Nicole Elgrissy".

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 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! UnitedStatesian (talk) 14:19, 7 January 2021 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Category:Guatemalan people of Polish-Jewish descent

A tag has been placed on Category:Guatemalan people of Polish-Jewish descent requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section C1 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the category has been empty for seven days or more and is not a disambiguation category, a category redirect, a featured topics category, under discussion at Categories for discussion, or a project category that by its nature may become empty on occasion.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.

Adding categories

Thanks for editing. Just a heads up that you've been adding categories in the format "[[:Category:Foo]]", but you need to add them "[[Category:Foo]]" (i.e. without the initial colon). Let me know if you need any help. ―Justin (koavf)❤T☮C☺M☯ 19:26, 24 December 2022 (UTC)

Notice regarding South Asian social groups

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 South Asian social groups. Due to past disruption in this topic area, the community has authorised uninvolved administrators to impose contentious topics restrictions—such as editing restrictions, bans, or blocks—on editors who do not strictly follow Wikipedia's policies, expected standards of behaviour, or the page-specific restrictions, when making edits related to the topic. For additional information, please see the guidance on these sanctions. 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.

Please stop adding castes, religions, etc., to people's articles without citing a reliable source. Thanks. -- Tamzin^{[cetacean needed]} (she|they|xe) 06:58, 5 August 2023 (UTC)
