@Optakeover: Would you mind explaining why? They are both literal aliases used to refer to the character over the course of the two most recent books in the series. Thanks for letting me know. Victareon (talk) 17:38, 18 March 2015 (UTC)
Yes, I checked. My sincere apologies. My reversion has already been reverted. Thank you for your notice. Optakeover(Talk) 17:40, 18 March 2015 (UTC)

The article Wayne Hankey has been proposed for deletion because it appears to have no references. Under Wikipedia policy, this biography of a living person will be deleted unless it has at least one reference to a reliable source that directly supports material in the article.

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 seven days, the article may be deleted, but you can request that it be undeleted when you are ready to add one. Wgolf (talk) 04:35, 14 May 2015 (UTC)

Copying licensed material requires proper attribution

Hi. I see in a recent addition to Scrying you included material from a webpage that is available under a CC-by-SA 3.0 license. That's okay, but you have to give attribution so that our readers are made aware that you copied the prose rather than wrote it yourself. I've added the attribution for this particular instance. Please make sure that you follow this legal requirement when copying from compatibly-licensed material in the future. — Diannaa 🍁 (talk) 18:56, 18 August 2017 (UTC)

The article Robert Crouse has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

unreferenced large work. It is a biography, but the subject is no longer living, exemptong this from BLPPROD.

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.

Can you explain why someone like yourself who has been here for over three years would think it ok to submit a huge new article with not a single source? John from Idegon (talk) 13:54, 31 December 2017 (UTC)
Just because I have been here for over three years doesn't mean I have any idea what I am doing. I will try my best to amend this. --Victareon (talk) 18:33, 2 January 2018 (UTC)

Ways to improve Robert Crouse

Hi, I'm Domdeparis. Victareon, thanks for creating Robert Crouse!

I've just tagged the page, using our page curation tools, as having some issues to fix. you need way more sources than this

The tags can be removed by you or another editor once the issues they mention are addressed. If you have questions, you can leave a comment on my talk page. Or, for more editing help, talk to the volunteers at the Teahouse.

Having made this edit without a summary, I recommend reading WP:FRINGE, which makes it quite clear that fringe theories are to be explicitly labeled as what they are. :bloodofox: (talk) 17:03, 17 July 2019 (UTC)
