Thanks for the correction to qepHom. Note, though, that your fix correctly promoted the section, raising it from third level to second. Thnidu (talk) 04:33, 27 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy deletion nomination of Klingon Language Wiki

Hello Lieven,

I wanted to let you know that I just tagged Klingon Language Wiki for deletion, because the article doesn't clearly say why the subject is important enough to be included in an encyclopedia.

If you feel that the article shouldn't be deleted and want more time to work on it, you can contest this deletion, but please don't remove the speedy deletion tag from the top.

You can leave a note on my talk page if you have questions. Cotton2 (talk) 09:00, 22 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

April 2018

Hello, I'm Doniago. I noticed that you made one or more changes to an article, Kobayashi Maru, 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! If you need guidance on referencing, please see the referencing for beginners tutorial, or if you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. DonIago (talk) 20:04, 17 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Oh - the source problem again :-) I have now added a handful of sources, I hope that at least one of them is an accepted reliable source. -- Lieven (talk) 05:48, 18 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I can't speak for what other editors may have to say, but the sources looked okay to me at a glance. Thank you for your understanding! DonIago (talk) 13:36, 18 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

February 2024

Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. We appreciate your contributions; however, it appears you may have written a Wikipedia article, or a draft for a Wikipedia article, about yourself. Creating an autobiography is strongly discouraged – please see our guideline on writing autobiographies. If you create such an article, it may be deleted. If what you have done in life is genuinely notable and can be verified according to our policy for articles about living people, someone else will probably create an article about you sooner or later (see Notable people who have edited Wikipedia). If you wish to add to or change an existing article about yourself, you are welcome to propose the changes by visiting the article's talk page. Please understand that this is an encyclopedia and not a personal web space or social networking site. If your article has already been deleted, please see: Why was the page I created deleted?, and if you feel the deletion was an error, please discuss this with the deleting administrator. Thank you.

Hello Fram, thanks for your notice. I am aware of the policy that autobiographies are discouraged (but not forbidden) and I know that this is not a place for self-display. Would it make any difference if a different person makes the first step? I think that this page about my achievements is notable, and it certainly complies with the rules of Wikipedia, at least it does on the German part of Wikipedia. I am the author of several books which were not published by myself, I am a notable expert on a special topic, there are multiple independant websites reporting about my achievements.

Anyhow, I will let others create the page. -- Lieven (talk) 13:40, 22 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I'm disappointed to see you assert that "I think that this page about my achievements is notable". You should know that it is not for you to write about yourself, regardless of your perceived achievements. Wikipedia is no longer in the cowboy era of 2008 when the consensus might have let you get away with this vain, navel-gazing foolishness. I hope you take this opportunity to avoid writing anymore about yourself. We are the writers of the encyclopedia, not the subjects. Chris Troutman (talk) 15:53, 22 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I apologize for living in the past. It was my misconception that people might be interested in knowing about what I do. The German Wikipedia seemingly does. As I wrote above, I'll let others decide to write here now. -- Lieven (talk) 16:04, 22 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
