Important Notice
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 discussions about infoboxes and to edits adding, deleting, collapsing, or removing verifiable information from infoboxes. 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.
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.

Richard Block (businessman) moved to draftspace
An article you recently created, Richard Block (businessman), does not have enough sources and citations as written to remain published. This article is a BLP and all information should be referenced, so please add 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.

A page you started (My Life, Our Times) has been reviewed!
Thanks for creating My Life, Our Times.
User:Rosguill while reveiwing this page as a part of our page curation process had the following comments:
While the subject clearly meets WP:NBOOK based on the results of an internet search, note that the references currently listed are insufficient for demonstrating notability: the only actual independent coverage are sources #4 and #6, and #6 is the Daily Mail, which is generally not considered a reliable source (see its entry at WP:RSP), although it's perhaps acceptable for book reviews. At any rate, I'd suggest citing more reviews, both to clearly establish that the subject meets notability guidelines, and to also flesh out the article a bit more.
To reply, leave a comment here and prepend it with {{Re|Rosguill}}. And, don't forget to sign your reply with ~~~~ .

Speedy deletion nomination of Premiership of Boris Johnson
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 Premiership of Boris Johnson 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 real person or group of people that does not credibly 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 read more about what is generally accepted as notable.
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 deleted 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. --Nahal(T) 11:27, 23 July 2019 (UTC)

Your edit on the Nigel Farage article
Hi,
I want to ask you about this addition of text you made to the Nigel Farage article. The way the information from the sources was summarised was incorrect in a number of ways. It is particularly critical in a biography of a living person that what we write is factual and correct, or that at the very least it is faithful to the sources given. Could you have a look (it's from a few months ago so you probably need to refresh your memory) and get back to me here please? Thanks. Oska (talk) 16:27, 31 October 2019 (UTC)
- Hello, could you tell me what is specifically wrong with that edit on the Nigel Farage article. From what I can see I moved some of the text around and added the info that Farage confirmed he was living in Chelsea with a French politician, which is what the two sources say that are quoted. Andysmith248 (talk) 20:58, 31 October 2019 (UTC)
- I see now that I put his house down as worth 12 million instead of 4 million, so yes it was a mistake on my part. In that edit I took the Independent's word that he was sharing the property with Ferrari. Andysmith248 (talk) 21:10, 1 November 2019 (UTC)
- Thanks for your replies and sorry for my delay in getting back to you.
- Yes, the two things you mention in your second reply are the things I wanted to address. The 12 vs 4 million mixup is the first thing I picked up on. I thought it was just a simple matter of vandalism (typical vandalism to change a figure in an article) but then found it was introduced right at the start, which I found peculiar. On the second point the quotes from Farage are only that that person was staying at the house, yet your text read that Farage 'confirmed' that she was sharing the house with him. There's a significant difference in the two words and what they convey and we need to be fair to the subject of the article (whatever the Independent goes on to speculate) in faithfully reporting what he actually said.
- I don't mean to sound officious but it might be a good idea for you to review the guidelines under Wikipedia:Biographies of living persons Oska (talk) 06:49, 5 November 2019 (UTC)
- (talk page stalker), just reiterating that just because information does exist, that doesn't mean it has to be included. Agree with Oska here re BLP. CassiantoTalk 08:23, 5 November 2019 (UTC)
After first correcting the text, and then after further consideration, I've acted to remove the text altogether for being only WP:BLPGOSSIP. The diff is here. Oska (talk) 00:23, 6 November 2019 (UTC)
