Use user drafts

For doing translations to English I recommend using a user draft like you did for User:Harry Riddle17/Ministry of Cyber and national digital matters of Israel (rather than translating directly to main space). For translations to Hebrew, do the same on Hebrew Wikipedia. —teb728 t c 10:05, 28 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Ministry of Cyber and National Digital Matters moved to draftspace

An article you recently created, Ministry of Cyber and National Digital Matters, is not suitable as written to remain published. It needs citations from reliable, independent sources. (?) 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.

MOS:POSTNOM

Please read this and note that the established style of post-nominals in an article cannot be changed without discussion and consensus. I have reverted your amendment at Winston Churchill where the small format has been in use for a long time. Thanks. No Great Shaker (talk) 11:30, 7 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I apologize. Thank you. Duke of Somewhere (talk) 12:00, 7 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Research invitation: Help us understand how editors work with media

Dear Duke of Somewhere,

I'm reaching out to invite you to participate in a research session because you're an English Wikipedia editor who works with media files—either regularly or occasionally. If you (or any other media editors who see this!) are interested in participating in an anonymous interview—for which you will be compensated—please first fill out this short survey in which we ask you a few questions about working with media. At the end, we ask for an email address that we can use to contact you if you are selected for an interview. If selected, we will follow up with an email invitation to select a day/time to participate. As a thank you for your time and insights, we are able to offer interview participants a gift card in compensation for participation.

You can complete the survey on any internet-capable device, but in order to participate in the interview, you will need access to a computer and internet connection fast enough to support video calls.

Thank you!

This survey will be conducted via Google Forms, which may subject it to additional terms. For more information about privacy and data-handling, see the survey privacy statement. Of course, please feel free to remove this message.

Overlinking

Hi, thanks for you work. Please don't link years, dates, or commonly known words. See WP:OVERLINK. Tony (talk) 01:26, 16 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

OK, sorry. Is there any specific page in which I have done that? Duke of Somewhere (talk) 05:04, 17 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Please stop your disruptive editing.

If you are engaged in an article content dispute with another editor, discuss the matter with the editor at their talk page, or the article's talk page, and seek consensus with them. Alternatively you can read Wikipedia's dispute resolution page, and ask for independent help at one of the relevant noticeboards.
If you are engaged in any other form of dispute that is not covered on the dispute resolution page, seek assistance at Wikipedia's Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents.

If you continue to disrupt Wikipedia, as you did at Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart‎, you may be blocked from editing. –Davey2010^Talk 13:22, 1 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, I am not engaged in a content dispute of any kind. I aim towards making Wikipedia a more comfortable place and thus I added an Infobox so users could read about Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart more easily. Could you please explain how my actions harmed Wikipedia? Duke of Somewhere (talk) 15:20, 1 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, The article states and I quote "Please do not add an infobox, per the consensus established on the Talk page, in Talk:Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart/Archive 8, Talk:Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart/Archive 10, Talk:Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart/Archive 12, and Talk:Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart/Archive 13." yet you chose to ignore that and insert one anyway

Your edits do harm Wikipedia tho as by you adding something you know not to add you're bringing editors back to either revert you or to air their objections on the talkpage ... and those exact editors could of been improving articles for our readers prior to coming to you. Thanks. –Davey2010^Talk 17:04, 1 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Please accept my apologies. I did not know that there was a discussion nor that the said consensus was established. Duke of Somewhere (talk) 18:11, 1 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Hello

I have published articles on Wikipedia listing the Earls during the reigns of medieval English kings starting with William the Conqueror.

The lists are for the purpose of showing readers who were the individuals who were Earls during each reign.

The articles are simply lists with links to Wikipedia articles about each of the Earldoms referred to and each of the individual Earls listed.

Recently I published the last of these lists for the Earls during the reign of Richard III.

That page has been moved to Draft because, as I understand it, it doesn't contain enough in-line references: http://en.wiki.x.io/wiki/Draft:List_of_earls_in_the_reign_of_Richard_III_of_England

Could you please assist me to have this draft moved back to article status.

I would also like to join the Wikipedia:WikiProject Peerage and Baronetage.

My email address is: johnhewison@yahoo.com.au

Unst50 (talk) 06:05, 22 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Hello,

I am very honoured that you came to for help, as I was not long ago in a similar situation.

From what I saw, I can tell you that you indeed need to find proof for this names. What you can do, is look at the Earls' articles, and try and find proof that they existed.

Regarding the WikiProject, I do not know how to join.

Sincerely,

Duke of Somewhere (talk) 09:46, 22 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

ARBPIA

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.

You have shown interest in the Arab–Israeli conflict. Due to past disruption in this topic area, a more stringent set of rules called discretionary sanctions is in effect. Any administrator may impose sanctions on editors who do not strictly follow Wikipedia's policies, or the page-specific restrictions, when making edits related to the topic.

To opt out of receiving messages like this one, place {{Ds/aware}} on your user talk page and specify in the template the topic areas that you would like to opt out of alerts about. For additional information, please see the guidance on discretionary sanctions and the Arbitration Committee's decision here. If you have any questions, or any doubts regarding what edits are appropriate, you are welcome to discuss them with me or any other editor.

Additionally, editors may not edit material related to the Arab-Israeli conflict topic area in articles if they have fewer than 500 edits. Your edit to Tourism in Israel violated that restriction. Please gain experience in less contentious topics to gain an understanding of our content policies until you qualify for editing in the Arab-Israeli conflict topic area. Thank you, nableezy - 15:06, 27 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]
