User talk:Stephanwehner

A belated welcome!

Here's wishing you a belated welcome to Wikipedia, Stephanwehner. 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 on talk pages 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 leave me a message on my talk page, consult Wikipedia:Questions, or place {{helpme}} on your talk page and ask your question there.

Again, welcome! — Mr. Stradivarius ^{(have a chat)} 05:45, 24 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Suggestion

Hi, I noticed your edit to Blackbeard. I agree with your edit and your reasoning. If you wish to pursue it further, I might suggest that you discuss the matter on Talk:Blackbeard rather than User Talk:Parrot of Doom. If you can't come to an agreement, you might also try posting a Request for Comment. Someone on Parrot Of Doom's talk page noted that you were in the minority. And on Parrot of Doom's talk page, you are in the minority because, unlike Parrot of Doom, Nev1, Malleus, etc, you do not reside in Manchester, England, nor do you regularly come to the defense of Parrot of Doom when people disagree with him, as do Nev1, Malleus, etc. I wish you luck! --RSLxii 19:07, 21 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for your kind words and support. I'm planning to revisit this when I have more free time. Stephanwehner (talk) 19:37, 21 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Poodles

I'm a proud poodle owner myself, but I need to say that "Proud poodle owners" is something I don't expect to see in an encyclopedia. That whole section lacks a source - is that AKC standards? The title of the section is questionable as it states as fact that that iw what poodle owners in general expect. Dougweller (talk) 12:16, 3 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Disambiguation link notification for November 2

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Leaf blower, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Edmunds (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.)

We would still like to shine a light on our active medical community, which you are more than welcome to join.

We are a (mostly) collegial bunch, and I do hope you feel welcome to participate. Currently there are two active communities:

Wikipedia:WikiProject Medicine (talk — The general medical community)

Important notice regarding Coronavirus disease 2019

This is a standard message to notify contributors about an administrative ruling in effect. It does not imply that there are any issues with your contributions to date.

Please carefully read this information:

A community discussion has authorised the use of general sanctions for pages related to coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19).
The specific details of these sanctions are described here.

Broadly, general sanctions is a system of conduct regulation designed to minimise disruption in controversial topic areas. This means uninvolved administrators can impose sanctions for edits relating to these topics that do not adhere to the purpose of Wikipedia, our standards of behaviour, or relevant policies. Administrators may impose sanctions such as editing restrictions, bans, or blocks. An editor can only be sanctioned after he or she has been made aware that general sanctions are in effect. This notification is meant to inform you that sanctions are authorised in these topic areas, which you have been editing. It is only effective if it is logged here. Before continuing to edit pages in these topic areas, please familiarise yourself with the general sanctions system. Don't hesitate to contact me or another editor if you have any questions.

Content dispute at Coronavirus disease 2019

Hi Stephanwehner,

the page Coronavirus disease 2019 has been protected to prevent further edit warring on a semi-protected page, between users whose experience should be high enough not to engage in such behavior. Please be more careful when the protection expires.

Thanks and best regards,

Comment, to preserve this for the future

At the time, the COVID-19 page was listing, in the sidebar, "other names" for the disease, including racist names like Wuhan Pneumonia, etc, terms which the likes of trump and other fascists liked to use, back then in March 2020. By now their attention-deficit-disorder has taken hold and they have moved on to other crimes against humanity.

I gave good reasons at the time for my removals. There was hardly any meaningful discussion. The above passive-aggressive notice was left after I removed those offensive entries. The wikipedia community took a long time to correct the appalling mistake, I think more than a week. As far as I can tell, whoever this "tobefree" person is, they were part of the problem.

September 2022

Hello, and thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. I noticed that you recently added commentary to an article, Los Angeles. While Wikipedia welcomes editors' opinions on an article and how it could be changed, these comments are more appropriate for the article's accompanying talk page. If you post your comments there, other editors working on the same article will notice and respond to them, and your comments will not disrupt the flow of the article. However, keep in mind that even on the talk page of an article, you should limit your discussion to improving the article. Article talk pages are not the place to discuss opinions of the subject of articles, nor are such pages a forum. Thank you. General Ization ^Talk 21:24, 6 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for that, yes, I meant to edit the talk page. BTW when I read your message, I got the impression that you pasted a template message, so it seems a bit impersonal. Stephanwehner (talk) 21:29, 6 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I use a tool called Twinkle which allows me to respond to vandalism and unconstructive editing quickly. I'm not saying your edit was either of those, but yes, the response you received is a standard template to notify editors who add commentary intended for the Talk page to the article instead. Sorry, but I don't have the time to personalize every message I leave on editors' Talk pages. General Ization ^Talk 21:38, 6 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

New Jason Clause moved to draftspace

An article you recently created, New Jason Clause, is not suitable as written to remain published. It needs more in-depth coverage about the subject itself, with citations from reliable, independent sources in order to show it meets WP:GNG. It should have at least three. And please remember that interviews, as primary sources, do not count towards GNG.(?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of "Draft:" before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page.Onel5969 ^{TT me} 11:41, 10 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

This contract clause is important to be covered in its own right. I thought it would be reasonable to give it 6 months to see how it grows organically. What is the rush?

Also you say it needs citations, and I provided one, showing how the clause appears in an actual real-life contract.

Is it possible that you triggered some button on some wikipedia app to move it to the draftspace? I have seen this happen before, and quite frankly, the button pushing really hurts people like me who are trying their best to improve wikipedia.

SO I would kindly request you to undo your action. Stephanwehner (talk) 14:09, 10 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Concern regarding Draft:New Jason Clause

Hello, Stephanwehner. This is a bot-delivered message letting you know that Draft:New Jason Clause, a page you created, has not been edited in at least 5 months. Drafts that have not been edited for six months may be deleted, so if you wish to retain the page, please edit it again or request that it be moved to your userspace.

Thank you for your submission to Wikipedia. FireflyBot (talk) 07:02, 30 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Your draft article, Draft:New Jason Clause

Hello, Stephanwehner. It has been over six months since you last edited the Articles for Creation submission or Draft page you started, "New Jason Clause".

In accordance with our policy that Wikipedia is not for the indefinite hosting of material deemed unsuitable for the encyclopedia mainspace, the draft has been deleted. When you plan on working on it further and you wish to retrieve it, you can request its undeletion. An administrator will, in most cases, restore the submission so you can continue to work on it.

Thanks for your submission to Wikipedia, and happy editing. Liz ^{Read! Talk!} 06:50, 30 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]
