April 2024[edit]

Hello, I'm Sumanuil. An edit that you recently made to Advanced Technologies Academy seemed to be a test and has been reverted. If you want to practice editing, please use your sandbox. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks! - Sumanuil. _{(talk to me)} 01:06, 6 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I was trying to get the gallery function to work but was not having luck and just tried uploading some photos, that are going to be in the gallery, to see if the change I made worked. Pickup Andropov (talk) 01:07, 6 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Please stop. If you continue to add unsourced or poorly sourced content, you may be blocked from editing. Plus the other things--joking, trivial content, etc. Drmies (talk) 01:11, 6 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Why did you just kneecap the entire page? The removal of the notable events, teachers and events were accurate. The lake section was a student project and the hack of '23 was an extension of an already existing article on the CCSD page. Your actions severely damaged the page and its usefulness as a source. Also do you have the answer to this weeks puzzler? Pickup Andropov (talk) 01:37, 6 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

This is your only warning; if you vandalize Wikipedia again, as you did at User:Sumanuil, you may be blocked from editing without further notice. WizardGamer775 (talk) 02:24, 6 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I don't understand what you mean but vandalizing Sumanuil. I had copied his user page as a template for my own not did not change anything on it. If you could clarify this comment I would greatly appreciate. Also I can't message you on your talk page because of the copyright ban. Pickup Andropov (talk) 14:16, 6 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hi @Pickup Andropov, you did make unconstructive changes to the user page, see this: [1]. You should not be changing things on other people's user page unless they have given you permission. Copying it as a template is OK but make sure you don't change it. Also, don't lie. Lying does not do you any favours on Wikipedia. You did make the edit, just admit it.

Also, please ensure that you make constructive edits from now on. Wikipedia is a serious project. Make sure to read up on Wikipedia:Copyright. Once your block expires I really hope you can be a constructive editor. The administrator was nice enough to give you a second chance. WizardGamer775 (talk) 16:49, 6 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Pickup Andropov feel free to reply here, I can see your reply. FYI, usually indefinite blocks would be imposed in these cases. WizardGamer775 (talk) 16:53, 6 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, articles should not be moved, as you did to Tribe of Tahquitz, without good reason. They should have a name that is both accurate and intuitive. Wikipedia has some guidelines in place to help with this. Generally, a page should only be moved to a new title if the current name doesn't follow these guidelines. Also, if a page move is being discussed, consensus needs to be reached before anybody moves the page. If you would like to experiment with page titles and moving, please use the test Wikipedia. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Thank you. '''[[User:CanonNi]]''' (talk|contribs) 02:49, 24 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

User:CanonNi Not sure if you saw but someone has nominated the article above mentioned for deletion. Not sure what that means (I'm new here). Just wanted to know why an article can be approved and then almost immediately put up for deletion. If you could help me with this confusing situation I would greatly appreciate that. Pickup Andropov (talk) 02:00, 24 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry but I've voted to delete the article. My reason is on the discussion page. If you're new to AfDs please see Help:My article got nominated for deletion! for what you can do if your article is nominated. Thanks. '''[[User:CanonNi]]''' (talk|contribs) 02:10, 24 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

So then why would you create the article in the first place to then vote to delete it. I feel that there is some discrepancy in the train of actions and thought happening here. Pickup Andropov (talk) 02:12, 24 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

As I've explained on the discussion page, I wasn't aware of Heights of presidents and presidential candidates of the United States when I accepted the draft. '''[[User:CanonNi]]''' (talk|contribs) 02:15, 24 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
