HI! Garrysmith10 (talk) 20:05, 30 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Welcome

Hello Yavorpenchev, and welcome to Wikipedia. I hope that you have enjoyed contributing and want to stick around. Here are some tips to help you get started:

Learn the basics by reading the introduction and taking the tutorial.
Remember to sign messages on talk pages by typing four tildes (~~~~) to automatically insert your username and the date.
Enjoy editing to improve articles, but try to leave an edit summary to explain what you are doing.
Create your first article using the Article Wizard to help avoid common mistakes, which may lead to article deletion.
Although you don't need to be familiar with all of Wikipedia's policies, try to keep to the core principles and basic guidelines.
When dealing with fellow Wikipedians, please remain polite, solve problems calmly, and remember that no-one is out to get you.
Get involved with the community by joining a WikiProject.
Make any test edits in the sandbox or click here and create a sandbox of your own.
If you are having difficulty, consider finding a mentor to give you more personal advice.
If in doubt, be bold. If you make a mistake, it can easily be reverted.

If you need any more information, plenty of help is available - check out Wikipedia:Questions; ask your question here and attract help with the code {{helpme}}; or leave me a message on my talk page explaining your problem and I will help as best as I can. Again, welcome! strdst_grl (call me Stardust) 15:27, 15 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy deletion nomination of B-boy Pop

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.
You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on B-boy Pop requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a person or group of people, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hang on}} to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion, or "db", tag; if no such tag exists, then the page is no longer a speedy delete candidate and adding a hang-on tag is unnecessary), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, you can contact one of these administrators to request that the administrator userfy the page or email a copy to you.

May 2014

Hello, I'm Jim1138. I noticed that you recently removed some content from Tsar Bomba with this edit, without explaining why. In the future, it would be helpful to others if you described your changes to Wikipedia with an edit summary. If this was a mistake, don't worry, the removed content has been restored. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks. Jim1138 (talk) 07:51, 3 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I would add that I made the same edit perhaps a half hour earlier in response to an edit by an IP user. There is a discussion about the Tsar's yield and why it is indicated as it is on the Tsar's Talk page. You might want to consult with it. SkoreKeep (talk) 08:11, 3 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]

List of world's longest ships

Hello. According to the cited reference (American Bureau of Shipping database entry), the overall length of the Maersk Triple E class container ships is 399 m. Unless you can find a more reliable reference to cite (which I doubt since ABS is the classification society), do not change the article. Tupsumato (talk) 12:54, 10 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]

October 2014

Hello, I'm AmaryllisGardener. I noticed that you recently removed all content from Toilet paper orientation, with this edit without explaining why. In the future, it would be helpful to others if you described your changes to Wikipedia with an edit summary. If this was a mistake, don't worry, I restored the page's content. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks. AmaryllisGardener ^talk 13:45, 18 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Please do not remove content or templates from pages on Wikipedia, as you did to Toilet paper orientation, without giving a valid reason for the removal in the edit summary. Your content removal does not appear constructive and has been reverted. Please make use of the sandbox if you'd like to experiment with test edits. Thank you. --Kethrus///Talk To Me 14:10, 18 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Your recent edits

Hello and welcome to Wikipedia. When you add content to talk pages and Wikipedia pages that have open discussion (but never when editing articles), please be sure to sign your posts. There are two ways to do this. Either:

Add four tildes ( ~~~~ ) at the end of your comment; or
With the cursor positioned at the end of your comment, click on the signature button ( or ) located above the edit window.

This will automatically insert a signature with your username or IP address and the time you posted the comment. This information is necessary to allow other editors to easily see who wrote what and when.

Thank you. --SineBot (talk) 14:19, 18 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

You may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you vandalize Wikipedia, as you did at Toilet paper orientation. Sjö (talk) 14:45, 18 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

List of world's longest ships

Please stop changing the list of world's longest ships. The length of CSCL Globe is sourced from the database entry of the ship's classification society (GL), which can be considered to be a more reliable ("official") source than some news article. If you wish to discuss the issue, do so on the article's talk page. Tupsumato (talk) 11:33, 22 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

We seem to have had this discussion before regarding the Maersk Triple E class. Tupsumato (talk) 11:35, 22 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Requesting advanced permissions

Hi, and thanks for your contributions to Wikipedia. Most of what I am seeing in your history is good, solid work. However, I have to tell you that at this time a request for adminship from you is guaranteed, with 100% certainty, to fail. I doubt it would even be allowed to run more than a few hours.

Administrators are expected to be very experienced users, with thousands of edits, including edits that show a solid understanding of administrative policies such as deletion and blocking. You have a few hundred edits, less than 200 in article space, and nothing in your record to indicate the experience and judgement expected form an admin candidate. Your answer to the first of the standard questions would seem to indicate that you actually have no idea what administrators do as nothing you mention in your reply requires admin status to accomplish.

In a way, this is good news because you can already do all the things you indicated you want to do without needing any advanced permisssions at all, but you really, really, shouldn't be running for adminship yet. Seeming over-eager to get it without really understanding what it even is is the surest way to make other users think you permanently unsuitable for the job.

If you like, I can delete your RFA for you, or you can tag it with {{db-self}} and another admin will delete it. If instead you choose to go ahead and "go live" with it, other users will edit it, they will all oppose you, it will be closed per WP:NOTNOW (which you really should read) and it will be too late to delete it. It will be here forever and people will be perfectly willing to bring it up should you ever ask for any other advanced permissions. I'd rather not see that happen, which is why I am telling you all this. Beeblebrox (talk) 22:27, 18 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Please refrain from adding duplicate citations within reference tags

Hi, Yavorpenchev. I wanted to let you know that adding a large number of duplicate citations, as you did here, is not constructive and often causes citation errors. When the name attribute of a pair of <ref>...</ref> tags is specified, the reference can be used repeatedly without having to copy all of the wiki markup (usually a citation template) that's nested within the reference tags. Please see this page for more information using the same source multiple times in an article. Thanks. —zziccardi (talk) 06:59, 15 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

ArbCom elections are now open!

Hi,
You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.

January 2016

Greetings. At least one of your recent edits, such as the edit you made to Lowest temperature recorded on Earth, did not appear to be constructive and has been or will be reverted or removed. Although everyone is welcome to contribute to Wikipedia, please take some time to familiarise yourself with our policies and guidelines. You can find information about these at our welcome page which also provides further information about contributing constructively to this encyclopedia. If you only meant to make some test edits, please use the sandbox for that. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you may leave a message on my talk page. Thank you.

Disambiguation link notification for May 8

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited List of largest monoliths in the world, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Cranes. 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.

Speedy deletion nomination of Liebherr LR 13000

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.
You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on Liebherr LR 13000, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page seems to be unambiguous advertising which only promotes a company, product, group, service or person and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become encyclopedic. Please read the guidelines on spam and Wikipedia:FAQ/Organizations for more information.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator.

Altering quotes

It appears that you made an edit to Apollo 11 [1] which altered the text of a direct quote. This is never appropriate, even if you think the person being quoted made a grammatical error. (And in this case she did not: your edit was in error.) If you believe the quote was inaccurate (not what the person said), you need to cite a source for your corrected version. As it is, the original version is quoted hundreds of times on the web. -Jason A. Quest (talk) 16:28, 12 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]
