A belated welcome!

[edit]
Sorry for the belated welcome, but the cookies are still warm!

Here's wishing you a belated welcome to Wikipedia, Joxeantied. I see that you've already been around a while and wanted to thank you for your contributions. Though you seem to have been successful in finding your way around, you may benefit from following some of the links below, which help editors get the most out of Wikipedia:

Also, when you post on talk pages you should sign your name using four tildes (~~~~); that should automatically produce your username and the date after your post.

I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! If you have any questions, feel free to consult Wikipedia:Questions or place {{helpme}} on your talk page and ask your question there.

Again, welcome! - theWOLFchild 00:33, 10 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

[edit]

Information icon Hi, and thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you tried to give Malcolm X Boulevard a different title by copying its content and pasting either the same content, or an edited version of it, into another page with a different name. 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, 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:Cut-and-paste-move repair holding pen. Thank you. — Malik Shabazz Talk/Stalk 20:10, 21 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Information icon Hello, I'm I dream of horses. I wanted to let you know that I undid one of your recent contributions, such as the one you made with this edit to Mosque–Cathedral of Córdoba, because it didn’t appear constructive to me. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks. I dream of horses If you reply here, please leave me a {{Talkback}} message on my talk page. @ 01:36, 26 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Warning icon Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to blank out or remove portions of page content, templates, or other materials from Wikipedia, as you did at Mosque–Cathedral of Córdoba, you may be blocked from editing. Thank you.

Hello, I noticed that you may have recently made edits while logged out. Making edits while logged out reveals your IP address, which may allow others to determine your location and identity. Wikipedia's policy on multiple accounts usually does not allow the use of more than one account or IP address by one person. If this was not your intention, then please always remember to log in when editing. Thank you. Elizium23 (talk) 16:49, 29 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Non-consensus page moves

[edit]

Please do not make controversial page moves without first discussing them on the article's talk page. Both "Lenox Avenue" and "Malcolm X Boulevard" are officially recognized names for the street in question, so moving the article about it from one name to the other without first discussing it and getting a consensus for the move is disruptive. Also "Harlem" is not a usually utilized disambiguation term, "Manhattan" should have been used. BMK (talk) 23:42, 16 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I have already added a request to revert your page move per above. Both are acceptable when referring to the street, as BMK says, but Lenox Avenue is more commonly recognized, as stated in WP:COMMONNAME. Epicgenius (talk) 00:26, 17 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
@Slavaeditor - You've also made a hash of the image categories on Commons, and falsely reported the names of the articles on the Spanish and French Wikis. You're digging yourself a hole here, as your actions are not justified by the facts. Please do not do this again. BMK (talk) 02:48, 18 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

August 2015

[edit]

Hello, it appears you attempted to move the article on Molokai to an alternate name, Molokaʻi by cutting and pasting its contents. Please don't do that. Doing that destroys the article history, which is essential for attribution under our copyright license. Moreover, sometimes the name of an article like that can be a bone of contention, and moving it without gaining the consensus of other editors can start an edit war. A better idea is to use the procedure outlined at requested moves. ~ ONUnicorn(Talk|Contribs)problem solving 16:31, 24 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Information icon Hi, and thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you tried to give Lihue, Hawaii a different title by copying its content and pasting either the same content, or an edited version of it, into another page with a different name. 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.

Incorrect San Jose edits

[edit]

Hi. You might want to stop your wholesale changes. Consensus is to use the non-accented version on English Wikipedia. Most likely all of your work will end up being reverted. Read WP:BRD, once you are reverted, you should engage in a conversation on the article's talk page (in this case, the main page San Jose, California). At the very least you should self-revert as a sign of good faith, until you engage in discussion. Onel5969 TT me 14:10, 21 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Okey, bot the problem is that I changed other articles. How can I revert that?

Hi. I can help you with the changes, if you're okay with that. Onel5969 TT me 14:19, 21 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Again please do not make controversial page moves without first discussing them on the article's talk page. If you are about to rename a mass number of articles like you did on the San Jose ones, that is usually a clear sign that it will most likely be controversial. The consensus to use the non-accented version of "San Jose" was based on the WP:COMMONNAME policy, where the more commonly recognized name in English is used (as determined by most news and other reliable sources), not the official name.
And I also see edits in which you attempted a "cut-and-paste move" of the San Jose article like you did back in July 2014 with the Malcolm X Boulevard page, the Molokai article in August, and the Lihue, Hawaii page last month. Again, that should not be done because it splits the page history, which is legally required for attribution per the terms of the free content license which allows Wikipedia's content to be distributed freely. Instead, please follow the instructions at requested moves to have it moved by someone else (which, in most cases, also helps initiate a page rename proposal discussion on the article's talk page). This is now the fourth complaint about that, so it is only fair that I should inform you that further repeated failures to understand and follow Wikipedia's policy and guidelines is consider to be disruptive editing and grounds for sanctions such as being blocked from editing.

Hi Joxeantied,

You have modified several articles to indicate that Spain claims localities in Western Sahara. As far as I know, Spain has renounced all claims when it signed the Madrid Accords in 1975. What is your basis for saying Spain makes these claims? Note that on Wikipedia, all assertions, and especially disputed assertions, must be backed by reliable sources, or they can be deleted. --gribeco (talk) 19:43, 11 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
