Proposed deletion of Wembley Fraggle

The article Wembley Fraggle has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

No reliable sources. None of the provided sources cover the topic, nor are they independent.

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.

Hello

Thank you for contributing to the article Boober Fraggle. However, please do not use unreliable sources such as blogs, wikis, personal websites, and websites and publications with a poor reputation for checking the facts or with no editorial oversight. These sources may express views that are widely acknowledged as pushing a particular point-of-view, sometimes even extremist, being promotional in nature, or relying heavily on rumors and personal opinions. One of Wikipedia's core policies is that contributions must be verifiable through reliable sources, preferably using inline citations. If you require further assistance, please look at Help:Menu/Editing Wikipedia, or ask at the Teahouse. Thank you. (Oinkers42) (talk) 03:02, 12 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for uploading File:Uncle Traveling Matt, fictional character from Fraggle Rock.webp. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described in section F5 of the criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. '''[[User:CanonNi]]''' (talk|contribs) 01:13, 13 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Greetings

Hey! I've noticed that you wrote several articles already, which is great. However, Wikipedia only allows well-written articles for things that are "notable" (worthy of an article), and to prove that something is notable we need to link newspaper articles or books discussing these things. For example, Doc (Fraggle Rock). The first two sources are good, but they are about the actor himself, not the character. In the third one, there are two lines about Doc. Then there's an interview (still doesn't show that Doc is notable), there are links to four episodes of the series (you want "secondary" sources, which are not related to the show or the company that made it). The next source, again, is about the actor. The source number 10 is not about the character, seems to be about the show's cast. And the last source is about the actor again. As you can see, none of these sources discuss the character in depth, which means sooner or later the article will be deleted as not notable. It would be a real shame to see your hard work get deleted like that. May I suggest you slow down and focus on one article, making sure it's properly sourced?

Editing while logged out?

Hi. I noticed several Canadian IPs, such as this one, this one, and this one, have been editing articles you created and removing maintenance tags from them. Are you affiliated with these IPs in any way? Because looking at this old revision of your user page, I noticed you're also Canadian. If you are using these IPs, why haven't you been logging in while editing? Thank you. '''[[User:CanonNi]]''' (talk|contribs) 01:48, 14 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Disambiguation link notification for April 28

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited John Hammond (Jurassic Park), you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Ed James. 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.)

It's OK to remove this message. Also, to stop receiving these messages, follow these opt-out instructions. Thanks, --DPL bot (talk) 05:57, 28 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Cut-and-paste moves

Hi, and thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you tried to give Draft:John Hammond (Jurassic Park) a different title by copying its content and pasting either the same content, or an edited version of it, into John Hammond (Jurassic Park). This is known as a "cut-and-paste move", and it is undesirable because it splits the page history, which is legally required for attribution. Instead, the software used by Wikipedia has a feature that allows pages to be moved to a new title together with their edit history.

In most cases for registered users, once your account is four days old and has ten edits, you should be able to move an article yourself using the "Move" tab at the top of the page (the tab may be hidden in a dropdown menu for you). This both preserves the page history intact and automatically creates a redirect from the old title to the new. If you cannot perform a particular page move yourself this way (e.g. because a page already exists at the target title), please follow the instructions at requested moves to have it moved by someone else. Also, if there are any other pages that you moved by copying and pasting, even if it was a long time ago, please list them at Wikipedia:Requests for history merge. Thank you.

Draftification of Cornelius (Planet of the Apes)

Hello, and thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. A page you recently created, Cornelius (Planet of the Apes), may not conform to some of Wikipedia's guidelines for new pages, so it has been moved to Draft:Cornelius (Planet of the Apes) where you can continue to work on it. Please consider using the Article Wizard or the Articles for Creation procedure. For more information about creating articles, you may want to read "Your first article". You may also want to read our introduction page to learn more about contributing. Thank you. -- Marchjuly (talk) 05:38, 7 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I suggest that you work on improving this in the draft namespace to make sure it meets WP:NFICTION instead of the article namespace because doing so will allow you to work at your own pace and perhaps find reliable sources that can be cited to not only show the subject is Wikipedia notable but also that the article content is not WP:OR. I also suggest you submit the draft to WP:AFC for review when you think it's ready because an AfC reviewer should be able to help move the page back to the article namespace if the draft is accepted. -- Marchjuly (talk) 05:48, 7 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Logged out editing

Hi IAmTheMuppetMan! I saw that the article you were working on (titled Cornelius (Planet of the Apes) and created by someone else) was moved to the draft space here where it's located currently. Marchjuly moved this article to the draft space in order to give you the time that you need in order to finish modifying and expanding it so that it's ready for inclusion into the article space. Otherwise, an editor might tag it for speedy deletion or proposed deletion too soon, and we don't want that to happen. However, I noticed that you removed the redirect left at the original location here and while logged out of your account. I went ahead and suppressed your IP information for you so that your privacy is protected. I also went and merged the draft into the main article. Please let me know if you have any questions or concerns, and I'll be happy to assist you. Just make sure that you're logged into your account before you save any edits. Else, your IP address will be exposed again (at least until I suppress it again). ;-) Cheers - ~Oshwah~^{(talk) (contribs)} 19:34, 8 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy deletion nomination of "FOOD-O!" J. daBoss

Although everyone is welcome to contribute to Wikipedia, the introduction of inappropriate pages, such as "FOOD-O!" J. daBoss, is considered vandalism and is prohibited. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. Repeated vandalism may result in the loss of editing privileges. Under section G3 of the criteria for speedy deletion, the page has been nominated for deletion.

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.

Maurice (Planet of the Apes) moved to draftspace

Thanks for your contributions to Maurice (Planet of the Apes). Unfortunately, I do not think it is ready for publishing at this time because it needs more sources to establish notability. I have converted your article to a draft which you can improve, undisturbed for a while.

Please see more information at Help:Unreviewed new page. When the article is ready for publication, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page OR move the page back. —TechnoSquirrel69 (sigh) 17:35, 18 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
