25px|alt=Information icon|link= ↗ Hello. Thank you for your contributions ↗ to Wikipedia ↗. I noticed that one or more recent edit(s) you made did not have an edit summary ↗. You can use the edit summary field to explain your reasoning for an edit, or to provide a description of what the edit changes. Summaries save time for other editors and reduce the chances that your edit will be misunderstood. For some edits, an adequate summary may be quite brief ↗.

The edit summary field looks like this:
{{The edit-summary field/OOUI}}

'''Please provide an edit summary for every edit you make.''' With a Wikipedia account ↗ you can give yourself a reminder to add an edit summary by setting {{myprefs|3|check=Prompt me when entering a blank edit summary}}, and then click the "Save" button.

25px|alt=Information icon ↗ Hello, I'm Flibirigit. I noticed that you added or changed content in an article, :Gilles Bouchard ↗, but you didn't provide a reliable source ↗. It's been removed and archived in the page history for now, but if you'd like to include a citation ↗ and re-add it, please do so. You can have a look at referencing for beginners ↗. If you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you.  Flibirigit (talk) 02:08, 14 July 2023 (UTC)

:Citations should go in the main part of the article, instead of the introduction. Please see WP:LEADCITE ↗, and the general manual of style. Best wishes. Flibirigit (talk) 02:21, 14 July 2023 (UTC)

Speedy deletion ↗ nomination of :File:EugeneMelnyk2007.jpg ↗

48px|left|alt=|link= ↗

A tag has been placed on :File:EugeneMelnyk2007.jpg ↗ requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section F7 of the criteria for speedy deletion ↗, because it is a non-free file ↗ from a commercial source (e.g. Associated Press ↗, Getty Images ↗), where the file itself is not the subject of sourced commentary. If you can explain why the file can be used under the non-free content guidelines ↗, please add the appropriate non-free use tag ↗ and rationale.

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 ↗.   <span class="nowrap" style="border:solid 4q magenta;border-radius:9in;box-shadow:0 0 9q magenta"> <math>999</math>REAL 💬 ⬆ ↗  </span> 00:30, 20 November 2025 (UTC)

Always cite reliable sources

25px|alt=Information icon ↗ Please do not add or change content, as you did at :Jay McKee ↗, without citing a reliable source ↗. Please review the guidelines at Wikipedia:Citing sources ↗ to see how to add references to an article. Thank you. Flibirigit (talk) 14:58, 29 May 2026 (UTC)
