Question from Mr. Rasel Hasan (12:17, 8 October 2022)

How to write an article? --Mr. Rasel Hasan (talk) 12:17, 8 October 2022 (UTC)

@Mr. Rasel Hasan: I am sorry that it somehow missed your message at the time. Please see this guide on creating your first article. Please let me know if you have any questions. TheSandDoctor Talk 17:13, 6 November 2022 (UTC)

TweetCiteBot

Can you please make bot exclude not only links (as it noticed i.e. here) but also emails (and, in fact phone numbers too if possible) from a tweet as such content violates WP:NOT? Probably it have to look some way similar to it. Thank you in advance. 85.238.103.38 (talk) 20:26, 8 October 2022 (UTC)

That is a very good suggestion and I appreciate you bringing that forward. I shall work on implementing that. TheSandDoctor Talk 17:14, 6 November 2022 (UTC)

Whack!

Whack!

You've been whacked with a wet trout.

Don't take this too seriously. Someone just wants to let you know that you did something silly.

Maybe you should have read the content before spinning out this article Electric vehicle ownership in Australia. ;) Cheers! Reaper Eternal (talk) 00:30, 5 November 2022 (UTC)

@Reaper Eternal: I consider myself trouted. TheSandDoctor Talk 17:10, 6 November 2022 (UTC)

Question from Smartypants327 (21:13, 13 November 2022)

Hi! I was just wondering how I can create a new article. Thanks! --Smartypants327 (talk) 21:13, 13 November 2022 (UTC)

@Smartypants327: Hello! Please see this guide after you've checked out The Wikipedia Adventure. The former answers your question, but the latter should help you grasp this site a bit better. TheSandDoctor Talk 03:53, 14 November 2022 (UTC)
Ok, thank you! Smartypants327 (talk) 04:18, 14 November 2022 (UTC)
@Smartypants327: You're welcome! I hope that that helps. If you have any questions, please do let me know. --TheSandDoctor Talk 15:19, 15 November 2022 (UTC)

Question from One Maximum31 on Template:Fake heading/doc (07:36, 22 November 2022)

How to add an image --One Maximum31 (talk) 07:36, 22 November 2022 (UTC)

@One Maximum31: What are you attempting to add an image to? Template:Fake heading/doc? Looking at its editing history, it appears that you are attempting to create a new draft article. If that is the case, please use the article wizard and refer to this guide to creating your first article. TheSandDoctor Talk 22:48, 22 November 2022 (UTC)

Hello

Dropped here to say hello. Hope you are doing well and safe. Dr.Pinsky (talk) 17:44, 23 November 2022 (UTC)

Hi @Dr.Pinsky:! I am doing well, yourself? TheSandDoctor Talk 18:03, 26 November 2022 (UTC)
I'm good, thanks. Dr.Pinsky (talk) 17:12, 27 November 2022 (UTC)

Request for Autopatrolled

Hello. I noticed you skipped my request. I don't want to bother you, but at the same time I would like an answer about my request, whether positive or negative, or even to know if something needs to be improved. Best regards. ✍A.WagnerC (talk) 12:07, 27 November 2022 (UTC)

@A.WagnerC: Yours was not as clear cut and I was still considering it and intended to get back to it, as I have done now. Your request has been approved for a six month trial. I mentioned it in my closing statement, but I would ideally like to see more article creations of at least start class before I would be comfortable granting this without an expiry. That said, if this trial goes well and doesn't have any reasonable/valid complaints (in the assessment of the reviewing administrator), I don't see an issue at this time with granting it indefinitely come May. TheSandDoctor Talk 18:21, 27 November 2022 (UTC)
Thank you so much. ✍A.WagnerC (talk) 18:33, 27 November 2022 (UTC)

please

Hi @Allaoii:! I didn't create the file and just happened across it on Wikimedia Commons several years ago now. You are certainly welcome to use the picture (and don't need my permission), it is located at File:Your argument is invalid.jpg. TheSandDoctor Talk 18:05, 26 November 2022 (UTC)
ok, but if you see any other funny images you want to recommend, go ahead Allaoii talk 18:09, 28 November 2022 (UTC)
@Allaoii: I unfortunately don't know of any others offhand. TheSandDoctor Talk 18:12, 28 November 2022 (UTC)
