The High Seas moved to draftspace[edit]

An article you recently created, The High Seas, is not suitable as written to remain published. It needs more 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.

Disambiguation link notification for May 6[edit]

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Still Time (Karen Matheson album), you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Georgia. 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.)

It's OK to remove this message. Also, to stop receiving these messages, follow these opt-out instructions. Thanks, DPL bot (talk) 06:03, 6 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Links to draft articles[edit]

Please do not introduce links in actual articles to draft articles, as you did to Proinsias Ó Maonaigh. Since a draft is not yet ready for the main article space, it is not in shape for ordinary readers, and links from articles should not go to a draft. Such links are contrary to the Manual of Style. These links have been removed. Thank you. - Arjayay (talk) 18:19, 13 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Disambiguation link notification for June 10[edit]

June 2021[edit]

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 All Things Must Pass, you may be blocked from editing. JG66 (talk) 11:11, 20 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

You should really make a life... instead of making other's life a misery! Maybe you should stay with your mama, she could make your laundry and cook for you! Think about it! Averagenoon (talk) 11:16, 20 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Really? You're behaving like a five-year-old. You should put some energy into finding out about Wikipedia policies and guidelines, and particularly the approach adopted by most (quality) editors here, before assuming you think you know what you're talking about. Twice now at that album article you've ignored a basic tenet of collaborative editing (WP:BRD). JG66 (talk) 12:00, 20 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Really! This is ridiculous! Shame on you! You're behaving like a tinpot dictator, a sticker for principles i.e. Wikipedia sacrosanct policies and guidelines! They may be wrong... didn't it ever appear to you? Obviously, no... Averagenoon (talk) 12:28, 20 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Your submission at Articles for creation: The High Seas (July 8)[edit]

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed! Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reason left by Yeeno 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 music-related topics). 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:

Has two good sources with significant coverage, needs one or two more to demonstrate notability. Track by track review section and the article to a lesser extent is overquoted/copied from the source, try conveying more information in your own words. Overquoting and copying can constitute a copyright violation. See Wikipedia:Writing better articles for some tips.

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 Draft:The High Seas 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 Draft:The High Seas, 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, or have experienced any untoward behavior associated with this submission, 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.

Hello, Averagenoon! Having an article declined at Articles for Creation can be disappointing.

See you there! Yeeno (talk) 🍁 04:36, 8 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

RE: Mind Games (John Lennon album)[edit]

No. The correct way would have been [[Nutopia]]n. But it looks like JG66 took care of it. ― C.Syde (talk | contribs) 13:40, 24 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

The term's mentioned in the article proper. Even if it wasn't, we still shouldn't be linking to a concept within the title of a song, album, book, film, etc. JG66 (talk) 13:44, 24 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I agree. I guess I wasn't paying close attention when I reverted the edit the first time around. If I had been, I probably would have known to remove the link instead of remove the redundant pipe. ― C.Syde (talk | contribs) 23:31, 24 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Concern regarding Draft:The High Seas[edit]

Hello, Averagenoon. This is a bot-delivered message letting you know that Draft:The High Seas, a page you created, has not been edited in at least 5 months. Drafts that have not been edited for six months may be deleted, so if you wish to retain the page, please edit it again or request that it be moved to your userspace.

If the page has already been deleted, you can request it be undeleted so you can continue working on it.

Thank you for your submission to Wikipedia. FireflyBot (talk) 05:02, 8 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Your draft article, Draft:The High Seas[edit]

Hello, Averagenoon. It has been over six months since you last edited the Articles for Creation submission or Draft page you started, "The High Seas".

In accordance with our policy that Wikipedia is not for the indefinite hosting of material deemed unsuitable for the encyclopedia mainspace, the draft has been deleted. If you plan on working on it further and you wish to retrieve it, you can request its undeletion. An administrator will, in most cases, restore the submission so you can continue to work on it.

Thanks for your submission to Wikipedia, and happy editing. Liz ^{Read! Talk!} 04:36, 8 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
