:: when adding project tags to talk pages - it would/could be quite easy to leave the default tags of class and importance as well... JarrahTree 10:59, 28 March 2020 (UTC)

Please



could you make an effort to add assessment details - very easy - and all it needs is lowest default - thanks... JarrahTree 11:05, 11 April 2020 (UTC)

Thank you



for your addition of project tags on talk pages - any effort to help further by adding the extra items to validate in the assessment system would be appreciated - thank you... JarrahTree 10:59, 13 May 2020 (UTC)

is there any reason that you dont understand the request



if you are editing english wikipedia it is assumed that you have english - it would be good if you can acknowledge the repeated request... JarrahTree 11:15, 24 May 2020 (UTC)

: I have read your request but I rather leave the rating of articles to people who have more knowledge about the subject or are more familiar with wikiprojects in general. SailingthroughHistory (talk) 12:23, 2 June 2020 (UTC)
::what i have indicated and also shown in the edits following your additions - there is no need for experience or familiarity as the default setting is the usual one - simply adding class=stub and importance=low - is in effect assisting in the maintenance of the projects considerably as so few editors are actually interested in following up/on the issue that you think there may be others to follow - as far as I can see - there are none. Thanks for your reply anyways. JarrahTree 03:53, 3 June 2020 (UTC)

Don't add talkheaders indiscrimately to pages


From: :template:Talk header ↗
This template '''does not need to be placed on every talk page, and should not be indiscriminately''' added to talk pages using automated editing tools. Talk pages that are frequently misused, that attract frequent debate, articles often subject to controversy, articles that typically attract new editors, and highly-visible or popular topics may be appropriate for this template.

A tag has been placed on :HNLMS Alkmaar ↗ requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G14 of the criteria for speedy deletion ↗, because it is a disambiguation page which either
:::*disambiguates only one extant Wikipedia page and whose title ends in "(disambiguation)" (i.e., there is a primary topic ↗);
:::* disambiguates zero extant Wikipedia pages, regardless of its title; or
:::*is an orphaned ↗ redirect with a title ending in "(disambiguation)" that does not target a disambiguation page or page that has a disambiguation-like function.
Under the criteria for speedy deletion ↗, such pages may be deleted at any time. Please see the disambiguation page guidelines for more information ↗.

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 ↗. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the {{Querylink|Special:Log|qs=type=delete&page=HNLMS+Alkmaar|deleting administrator}}. <!-- Template:Db-disambig-notice --> <!-- Template:Db-csd-notice-custom --> Taking Out The Trash (talk) 19:18, 19 February 2023 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of HNLMS Urk



Hello SailingthroughHistory,

Welcome to Wikipedia! I edit here too, under the username Lightoil and it's nice to meet you :-)

I wanted to let you know that I have tagged an article that you started, HNLMS Urk ↗ for deletion, because it is unnecessary per one of the criteria at WP:G14 ↗.

If you feel that the page shouldn't be deleted and want more time to work on it, you can remove the speedy deletion tag from the top. If the page is already deleted by the time you come across this message and you wish to retrieve the deleted material, please contact the {{Querylink|Special:Log|qs=type=delete&page=HNLMS+Urk&subtype=delete|deleting administrator}}.

For any further query, please leave a comment here and prepend it with <code><nowiki>{{Re|</nowiki>Lightoil<nowiki>}}</nowiki></code>. And, don't forget to sign your reply with <code><nowiki>~~~~</nowiki></code> . Thanks!

Redundant 'See also' sections



Hi there! I see that you have been adding 'See also' sections to a bunch of articles about Dutch ships by linking the respective list of Dutch ships (such as List of cruisers of the Netherlands ↗). I do not see how this is useful as the bottom templates already link to these articles. These edits just double-link the same thing, which is MOS:NOTSEEALSO ↗. GGOTCC 16:36, 13 January 2026 (UTC)

More useful



It is far more useful to find and provide missing citations than to pepper articles with 'citation needed' notices. It tends to irritate other editors, for example. Urselius (talk) 20:01, 13 January 2026 (UTC)
