left|link=|alt=Notice|48px| ↗

The file :File:Logo of Volkswagen Trucks and Buses.jpg ↗ has been proposed for deletion ↗ because of the following concern:

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons ↗.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{Tlc|proposed deletion/dated files}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary ↗ or on the file's talk page ↗.

Please consider addressing the issues raised. Removing {{Tlc|proposed deletion/dated files}} will stop the proposed deletion process ↗, but other deletion process ↗es exist.

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited SEAT ↗, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Crossover ↗ ([//dispenser.info.tm/~dispenser/cgi-bin/dablinks.py/SEAT check to confirm] | [//dispenser.info.tm/~dispenser/cgi-bin/dab_solver.py/SEAT?client=notify fix with Dab solver]). Such links are usually incorrect ↗, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. <small>(Read the FAQ{{*}} Join us at the DPL WikiProject ↗.)</small>

Cut-and-paste move SEAT el-Born

25px|alt=Information icon ↗ Hi, and thank you for your contributions ↗ to Wikipedia. It appears that you tried to give :SEAT el-Born ↗ a different title by copying its content and pasting either the same content, or an edited version of it, into :Cupra el-Born ↗. This is known as a "cut-and-paste move ↗", and it is undesirable because it splits the page history ↗, which is legally required for attribution ↗. Instead, the software used by Wikipedia has a feature that allows pages to be ''moved'' to a new title together with their edit history.

In most cases, once your account is four days old and has ten edits ↗, you should be able to move an article yourself using the "Move" tab ↗ at the top of the page (the tab may be hidden in a dropdown menu ↗ for you). This both preserves the page history intact and automatically creates a redirect ↗ from the old title to the new. If you cannot perform a particular page move yourself this way (e.g. because a page already exists at the target title), please follow the instructions at requested moves ↗ to have it moved by someone else. Also, if there are any other pages that you moved by copying and pasting, even if it was a long time ago, please list them at Wikipedia:Requests for history merge ↗. Thank you.  <span style="color:snow;background:#38E">⛐</span>Boivie (talk) 06:25, 9 July 2020 (UTC)

25px|alt=Information icon|link= ↗ Hello. I have noticed that you {{usertalk other|often ↗|often}} edit without using an edit summary ↗. Please do your best to '''always fill in the summary field'''. This helps your fellow editors use their time more productively, rather than spending it unnecessarily scrutinizing and verifying your work. Even a short summary is better than no summary, and summaries are particularly important for large, complex, or potentially controversial edits. To help yourself remember, you may wish to check the "prompt me when entering a blank edit summary" box in your preferences ↗. Thanks!  Jklamo (talk) 17:36, 24 July 2021 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Volkswagen Anhui

Hello Eight.valve,

I wanted to let you know that I just tagged Volkswagen Anhui ↗ for deletion, because it seems to be copied from another source ↗, probably infringing copyright.

If you feel that the article shouldn't be deleted and want more time to rewrite it in your own words, you can <span class="plainlinks">'''[//en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title={{urlencode:Talk:Volkswagen Anhui}}&action=edit&section=new&preload=Template:Hangon_preload&preloadtitle=This+page+should+not+be+speedy+deleted+because...+ contest this deletion]'''</span>, but don't remove the speedy deletion tag from the top.

You can leave a note on my talk page ↗ if you have questions. Thanks!
