Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions; however, please remember the essential rule of respecting copyrights. Edits to Wikipedia, such as your edit to the page South African Communist Party, may not contain material from copyrighted sources unless used with permission. It is almost never okay to copy extensive text out of a book or website and paste it into a Wikipedia article with little or no alteration, though you can clearly and briefly quote copyrighted text in the right circumstances. Content that does not comply with this legal rule must be removed. For more information on this, see:

If you still have questions, there is a new contributor's help page, or you can click here to ask a question on your talk page and someone will be along to answer it shortly. As you get started, you may find this short tutorial helpful:

Hello, I'm Lefcentreright. I noticed that you added or changed content in an article, Ronald Lamola, 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. You can have a look at the tutorial on citing sources. If you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. LefcentrerightTalk (plz ping) 10:40, 3 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Disambiguation link notification for June 4

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited South African Communist Party, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Rob Davies (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: sandbox (June 4)

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed! Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reason left by Eagleash was:

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 people). 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.

The comment the reviewer left was:

This subject may ultimately prove to be notable but currently requires additional sourcing for verification.

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.

If you would like to continue working on the submission, go to User:Tefo S Radebe/sandbox and click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window.
If you now believe the draft cannot meet Wikipedia's standards or do not wish to progress it further, you may request deletion. Please go to User:Tefo S Radebe/sandbox, click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window, add "{{Db-g7}}" at the top of the draft text and click the blue "publish changes" button to save this edit.
If you do not make any further changes to your draft, in 6 months, it will be considered abandoned and may be deleted.
If you need any assistance, you can ask for help at the Articles for creation help desk, on the reviewer's talk page or use Wikipedia's real-time chat help from experienced editors.

Your USer page...

...should not look like an article. All that belongs is a description of yourself as pertains to your intent as a Wikipedia editor. David notMD (talk) 14:03, 4 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

In addition to the above, the page may be liable to deletion. It should be cleared of article-like content. Thank you. Eagleash (talk) 14:20, 4 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, there. Please read WP:USERPAGE and maybe go and look at Wikipedia:User page design center to customise your article so that it doesn't look like an article. Thanks LefcentrerightTalk (plz ping) 14:34, 4 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Just checking in, your user page is still not changed. User pages are not supposed to look like articles. Go and look at the Wikipedia:User page design center to customise it. Perhaps, I can help you properly design your page? LefcentrerightTalk (plz ping) 13:51, 5 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
