Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited J Hus, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Stratford. 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.

Page mover granted

[edit]

Hello, Launchballer. Your account has been granted the "extendedmover" user right, either following a request for it or demonstrating familiarity with working with article names and moving pages. You are now able to rename pages without leaving behind a redirect, and move subpages when moving the parent page(s).

Please take a moment to review Wikipedia:Page mover for more information on this user right, especially the criteria for moving pages without leaving redirect. Please remember to follow post-move cleanup procedures and make link corrections where necessary, including broken double-redirects when suppressredirect is used. This can be done using Special:WhatLinksHere. It is also very important that no one else be allowed to access your account, so you should consider taking a few moments to secure your password. As with all user rights, be aware that if abused, or used in controversial ways without consensus, your page mover status can be revoked.

Useful links:

If you do not want the page mover right anymore, just let me know, and I'll remove it. Thank you, and happy editing! ~ Rob13Talk 16:57, 26 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Trackstarz listed at Redirects for discussion

An editor has asked for a discussion to address the redirect Trackstarz. Since you had some involvement with the Trackstarz redirect, you might want to participate in the redirect discussion if you have not already done so. — Quasar G. 10:45, 3 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Proposed deletion of Narayan (song)

[edit]

Hello, Launchballer. I wanted to let you know that I’m proposing an article that you started, Narayan (song), for deletion because I don't think it meets our criteria for inclusion. If you don't want the article deleted:

  1. edit the page
  2. remove the text that looks like this: {{proposed deletion/dated...}}
  3. save the page

Also, be sure to explain why you think the article should be kept in your edit summary or on the article's talk page. If you don't do so, it may be deleted later anyway.

You can leave a note on my talk page if you have questions.

No, that would be 2stopwhispering. It came to me because I created the redirect but you should post this on his talk page instead of mine. Not, given the most recent warning he's been given, that he would necessarily read it…--Launchballer 01:28, 19 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

New article Aisha Toussaint

[edit]

Hi there - I had noticed a couple of tiny errors when you'd created the page - the most notable one is that the link of James Mackenzie pointed me to the disambiguation page which I have fixed. At first I did not believe about the birth country until I have seen one of the references saying that would be correct. Let the challenge ... begin. Iggy (talk) 20:47, 27 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Your signature

[edit]

Please be aware that your signature uses deprecated <font> tags, which are causing Obsolete HTML tags lint errors. Your signature is also causing Tidy bug affecting font tags wrapping links.

You are encouraged to change

<span style="background:#FF0;font-family:Rockwell Extra Bold">[[User:Launchballer|<font color="#00F">Laun</font>]][[User talk:Launchballer|<font color="#00F">chba</font>]][[Special:Contributions/Launchballer|<font color="#00F">ller</font>]]</span> : Launchballer

to

<span style="background:#FF0;font-family:Rockwell Extra Bold">[[User:Launchballer|<span style="color:#00F">Laun</span>]][[User talk:Launchballer|<span style="color:#00F">chba</span>]][[Special:Contribs/Launchballer|<span style="color:#00F">ller</span>]]</span> : Launchballer

However, that won't work, as it exceeds by 5 the limit of 255 characters. Possible workarounds:

  • use a shorter font name
  • include bold or italics, which paradoxically allow for shorter declarations:
<span style="background:#FF0;font-family:Rockwell Extra Bold">[[User:Launchballer|<b style="color:#00F">Laun</b>]][[User talk:Launchballer|<b style="color:#00F">chba</b>]][[Special:Contribs/Launchballer|<b style="color:#00F">ller</b>]]</span> : Launchballer
<span style="background:#FF0;font-family:Rockwell Extra Bold">[[User:Launchballer|<i style="color:#00F">Laun</i>]][[User talk:Launchballer|<i style="color:#00F">chba</i>]][[Special:Contribs/Launchballer|<i style="color:#00F">ller</i>]]</span> : Launchballer

If neither of those are acceptable, ping me and I'll see what else I can come up with. —Anomalocaris (talk) 21:36, 29 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

—Anomalocaris (talk) 21:36, 29 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

I really can't take a diatribe on signatures seriously from a user who's signed his post twice. In theory, Launchballer should work, and I am at a loss as to why my Preferences tells me "Invalid raw signature. Check HTML tags.".--Launchballer 22:48, 29 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Sorry about double-signing the previous post. Your proposed signature doesn't work because the signature tester won't allow style markup that isn't in quotes. Putting your proposed markup
<span style="background:#FF0;font-family:Rockwell Extra Bold">[[User:Launchballer|<span style=color:#00F>Laun</span>]][[User talk:Launchballer|<span style=color:#00F>chba</span>]][[Special:Contribs/Launchballer|<span style=color:#00F>ller</span>]]</span> : Launchballer
in quotes yields:
<span style="background:#FF0;font-family:Rockwell Extra Bold">[[User:Launchballer|<span style="color:#00F">Laun</span>]][[User talk:Launchballer|<span style="color:#00F">chba</span>]][[Special:Contribs/Launchballer|<span style="color:#00F">ller</span>]]</span> : Launchballer
but that is 5 characters over the limit. —Anomalocaris (talk) 05:42, 30 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
I've had a rummage through this website. My signature is underlined for most people, so <span style="background:#FF0;font-family:Rockwell Extra Bold">[[User:Launchballer|<u style="color:#00F">Laun</u>]][[User talk:Launchballer|<u style="color:#00F">chba</u>]][[Special:Contribs/Launchballer|<u style="color:#00F">ller</u>]]</span> : Launchballer has the least impact. I've changed it to that. I've got to say, is it displaying in Rockwell Extra Bold for you? It isn't for me. It should look like the font used on my website.--Launchballer 19:31, 30 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
I have a Windows 7 computer and Rockwell Extra Bold is not part of that, and your signature displays in font more like Times New Roman. Thank you for removing the lint from your signature! —Anomalocaris (talk) 01:46, 31 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Mm. I've just spotted one thing about the signature I don't quite like but can probably live with; the "chba" is underlined on this page, when it doesn't link anywhere. Still, could be worse. Take a look at Rockwell Extra Bold next time you use Microsoft Word.--Launchballer 01:56, 31 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited UK Singles Chart records and statistics, you added links pointing to the disambiguation pages Father Abraham and Secret Love (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). 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.)

IP block exemption request

[edit]
This user's request to have autoblock on their IP address lifted has been reviewed by an administrator, who accepted the request.
Launchballer/archive/2020 (block log • active blocks • global blocks • contribs • deleted contribs • filter log • creation log • change block settings • unblock • checkuser (log))
127.0.0.1 (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · filter log · WHOIS · RDNS · RBLs · http · block user · block log)

Block message:

Autoblocked because your IP address was recently used by "Michael Hucker". The reason given for Michael Hucker's block is: "Clearly not here to contribute to the encyclopedia".

Accept reason: Autoblock lifted. NeilN talk to me 13:35, 22 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

This IP address is currently being used by Kingston University. I routinely edit at this institution. Please grant me IP block exemption. (Note to self: I was attempting to merge Tramlink route 5 into Tramlink. When you are next able to edit, finish the job.)--Launchballer 13:13, 22 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

NeilN: I have just tried to request IP block exemption using UTRS and it wouldn't send as my IP address is no longer blocked. Therefore I'm asking you: would you please grant me IP block exemption?--Launchballer 17:16, 22 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
We generally don't make a practice of giving IPBE to people with a history of abusing multiple accounts. The IP you were having trouble with has exactly such an abuse issue right now, so I'd recommend against this. --jpgordon𝄢𝄆 𝄐𝄇 18:40, 22 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Who has a history of abusing multiple accounts? I had a sockpuppetry problem, but I was unblocked over five years ago.--Launchballer 21:22, 22 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
I prefer leaving the granting of that right to checkusers. --NeilN talk to me 21:33, 22 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Chris troutman: You wait four weeks for an issue of the signpost and then two turn up in quick succession. What's going on?--Launchballer 21:37, 24 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
The Signpost is a monthly publication, which is why it's been four weeks since the prior issue. Today's duplication occurred because I misunderstood a step in the publication process. Since I'm new at this task, I stumbled through this. Rest assured, we're ironing out the process so this won't happen again. Chris Troutman (talk) 22:10, 24 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

About "Your M&S Food"

[edit]

User:Your M&S Food is already blocked indefinitely because it is a sockpuppet of a rather prolific vandal. There is no need to say anything on its talk page. SemiHypercube (talk) 15:04, 31 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

So it is. In my defense, there were no posts saying "you have been blocked" and I used WP:TWINKLE, so I didn't see the "this user has been blocked" header when I edited the page. Perhaps this is something the makers can do something about?--Launchballer 15:27, 31 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Hi there. Unfortunately I do not subscribe to the premium services that Cricket Archive offers and can only access the site via the workarounds which exist - that is to say, pressing Escape before the page completely loads.

Hi Thomas, I'm Marco (Kiodos on Wikipedia)! I've just started writing on Wikipedia. I am very happy to be able to help this website. I only need your support to start positively!

I readed your articles, wow, really good job! I finded you with article about Rachel K Collier.

I did a considerable amount of research to find all the articles, there are Italian and foreign articles about this artist. I would like to create articles about artists winning important contests. He won an MTV award. This is the article: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Draft:Matthew_S I hope you can help me! Thanks so much!

Will you please not contact me via any medium other than Wikipedia, I am a busy man with barely enough energy as is. Have some patience. Draft space is notoriously exclusionist and will only accept an article if it's perfect; you might be able to get away with just moving it straight there.--Launchballer 22:47, 13 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Ahir Shah, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Depression (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). 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.)

Your submission at Articles for creation: New Model in Technology and Engineering (NMiTE) (June 29)

[edit]
Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed! Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reasons left by Calliopejen1 were:
This submission's references do not show that the subject qualifies for a Wikipedia article—that is, they do not show significant coverage (not just passing mentions) about the subject in published, reliable, secondary sources that are independent of the subject (see the guidelines on the notability of organizations and companies). Before any resubmission, additional references meeting these criteria should be added (see technical help and learn about mistakes to avoid when addressing this issue). If no additional references exist, the subject is not suitable for Wikipedia.
This submission is not adequately supported by reliable sources. Reliable sources are required so that information can be verified. If you need help with referencing, please see Referencing for beginners and Citing sources.
Please check the submission for any additional comments left by the reviewer. You are encouraged to edit the submission to address the issues raised and resubmit when they have been resolved.

Hello, Launchballer! Having an article declined at Articles for Creation can be disappointing. If you are wondering why your article submission was declined, please post a question at the Articles for creation help desk. If you have any other questions about your editing experience, we'd love to help you at the Teahouse, a friendly space on Wikipedia where experienced editors lend a hand to help new editors like yourself! See you there! Calliopejen1 (talk) 05:24, 29 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Calliopejen I don't accept that this article doesn't qualify for a Wikipedia article. Per WP:SCHOOLOUTCOMES, higher education establishments are considered de facto notable. That said, ask Goodhew1 - that editor compiled the draft, all I did was submit it.--Launchballer 08:20, 29 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy deletion declined: What the Hell Is Going On?

[edit]

Hello Launchballer. I am just letting you know that I declined the speedy deletion of What the Hell Is Going On?, a page you tagged for speedy deletion, because of the following concern: coverage in reliable sources and release on notable label indicate significance (A9 requires both lack of significance *and* lack of an artist's article). Thank you. SoWhy 07:05, 24 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Copying within Wikipedia requires attribution

[edit]

Information icon Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you copied or moved text from Fox (band) into Noosha Fox. While you are welcome to re-use Wikipedia's content, here or elsewhere, Wikipedia's licensing does require that you provide attribution to the original contributor(s). When copying within Wikipedia, this is supplied at minimum in an edit summary at the page into which you've copied content, disclosing the copying and linking to the copied page, e.g., copied content from [[page name]]; see that page's history for attribution. It is good practice, especially if copying is extensive, to also place a properly formatted {{copied}} template on the talk pages of the source and destination. The attribution has been provided for this situation, but if you have copied material between pages before, even if it was a long time ago, please provide attribution for that duplication. You can read more about the procedure and the reasons at Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia. Thank you. If you are the sole author of the prose that was copied, attribution is not required. — Diannaa (talk) 23:00, 24 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

DYK for North Cheam tube station

[edit]

On 8 May 2020, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article North Cheam tube station, which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that the Northern line, which already served the southernmost station on the London Underground, was proposed to be extended southward to North Cheam in 1946? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/North Cheam tube station. You are welcome to check how many page hits the article got while on the front page (here's how, North Cheam tube station), and it may be added to the statistics page if the total is over 5,000. Finally, if you know of an interesting fact from another recently created article, then please feel free to suggest it on the Did you know talk page.
