Nice catch

edit

To answer the question in your edit summary, you can see in the page history (the "view history" tab at the top of every page) that I had originally added the tag, then ScottyNolan added references but didn't remove the tag. I didn't even notice in my later edit because I was looking at the punctuation and ref markup, nice catch! :) - Adolphus79 (talk) 22:39, 20 November 2025 (UTC)Reply

Twinkle

edit

Hello, I noticed you're using Twinkle. Did you know you can warn and welcome users by using Twinkle too? On top of a user talk page, click TW. You can warn and welcome users. If you click on warn, you can choose the warning, message and link the page. I am saying this because I noticed your edits don't use Twinkle for warnings. It will save some time for you.

Thank you! It saved a lot of time. 😇 Zhang 02:49, 15 February 2026 (UTC)Reply

Speedy deletion nomination of Alofs Reloading Maganzine

edit

A tag has been placed on Alofs Reloading Maganzine requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section R3 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is a recently created redirect from an implausible typo or misnomer, or other unlikely search term.

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. ASUKITE 01:23, 25 March 2026 (UTC)Reply

I have sent you a note about a page you started

edit

Hi Dadao1945. Thank you for your work on List of weapons of The Mexican–American War. Another editor, Klbrain, has reviewed it as part of new pages patrol and left the following comment:

Consistent with others in Category:Weapons by war; still, in order to demonstrate WP:NLIST it would be helpful to have a reliable source that focus on this list (rather than references supporting individual members of it).

To reply, leave a comment here and begin it with {{Re|Klbrain}}. (Message delivered via the Page Curation tool, on behalf of the reviewer.)

Draft declined
Thank you for contributing to Wikipedia. Your draft submission to Articles for creation has been reviewed but not accepted at this time.
Feedback
The reviewer, Htanaungg, left the following feedback:
This draft is not adequately supported by reliable sources. Wikipedia's verifiability policy requires that all content be supported by reliable sources.
  • Reliable sources include: reputable newspapers, magazines, academic journals, and books from respected publishers.
  • Unacceptable sources include: personal blogs, social media, predatory publishers, most tabloids, and websites where anyone can contribute.
Replace any unreliable sources with high-quality sources. If you cannot find a reliable source for the material, it should be removed.
This draft's references do not show that the subject meets Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion for organizations and companies. The draft requires multiple published secondary sources that:
  • provide significant coverage: discuss the subject in detail, excluding routine coverage like product launches, staff appointments, or financial reports and listings in databases or listicles;
  • are reliable: from reputable outlets with editorial oversight;
  • are independent: not connected to the subject, such as press releases, the subject's own website, or sponsored content.
Please add references that meet all three of these criteria. If none exist, the subject is not yet suitable for Wikipedia.

Next steps

  • Edit Draft:Chin People Army to address the points above, making sure to publish any changes.
  • When you are ready to resubmit your draft for review, click the Resubmit button.
  • If you do not edit your draft in the next 6 months, it may be deleted.

Template categorization

edit

When adding categories to templates (example: Special:Diff/1351937880), please make sure to follow template categorization guidelines. Categorization wikitext goes inside <noinclude>...</noinclude> tags (Special:Diff/1351991259), or inside the /doc subpage, if it exists. —⁠andrybak (talk) 14:20, 1 May 2026 (UTC)Reply
