Speedy deletion ↗ nomination of :Draft:SosMula ↗

A tag has been placed on :Draft:SosMula ↗, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion ↗, because the page seems to be unambiguous advertising which only promotes a company, group, product, service, person, or point of view and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become encyclopedic. Please read the guidelines on spam ↗ and Wikipedia:FAQ/Organizations ↗ 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=Draft%3ASosMula|deleting administrator}}.

Speedy deletion ↗ nomination of :KEKMA FORUM ↗

A tag has been placed on :KEKMA FORUM ↗ requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion ↗, because the article appears to be about web content that does not credibly indicate ↗ how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion ↗, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please read more about what is generally accepted as notable ↗.

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 ↗.

:Note: I may have tagged this too quickly, so my apologies for that. If you want to, you can create a draft article and someone else can take a look at it. Deauthorized. <sup>(talk ↗)</sup> 19:13, 30 September 2023 (UTC)

Short Description edits

I see you have been adding Short Descriptions to several articles. While there is still plenty of opportunity for them in the appropriate places, I would like to draw your attention to their purpose, which is to provide ''supplemental'' information to an article's title in various listings. In particular:

The description should be ''short''. A goal is to have the most significant information in the first 40 characters.

It is superfluous if it merely states information obvious from the article's title. "A short description is not a definition".

If an editor has used the keyword '''none''', that would have been an intentional addition, and if you want to change it (or make other significant changes) you should gain consensus on the article's Talk page.

The complete set of guidelines is laid out at Wikipedia:Short description ↗. I realize there is a lot to learn about Wikipedia's conventions, which is why we encourage new editors to make simple content changes at first. Please don't be discouraged. David Brooks (talk) 14:54, 2 October 2023 (UTC)

25px|alt=Information icon ↗ <s>Hello, I'm SamX. Wikipedia is written by people who have a wide diversity of opinions, but we try hard to make sure articles have a neutral point of view ↗. Your recent edit to :Gender neutrality in English ↗ seemed less than neutral and has been removed. If you think this was a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page ↗.</s> ''Please read the previous message dated to October 2nd.''  <span class="nowrap">— SamX [talk '''·''' contribs ↗]</span> 20:02, 5 November 2023 (UTC)

:What did I do that was not impartial? Taz On The Free Encyclopedia (talk) 20:21, 5 November 2023 (UTC)
::My apologies. I've given it a bit more thought and I agree that your edit was neutral, but it still wasn't a helpful change to the short description. The article's title is detailed enough that it {{tlx|short description|none}} is probably the best approach, and including "you" in the short description is not appropriate ↗. Thanks, <span class="nowrap">— SamX [talk '''·''' contribs ↗]</span> 20:26, 5 November 2023 (UTC)
:::I meant "you" as in "one", in that description. Taz On The Free Encyclopedia (talk) 17:19, 6 November 2023 (UTC)

25px|alt=Information icon|link= ↗ Hello. Thank you for your contributions ↗ to Wikipedia ↗. I noticed that your recent edit to :Jews for Jesus ↗ 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.
Thanks!{{sp}} Erp (talk) 01:53, 2 February 2024 (UTC)

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Teriyaki ↗, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Japanese ↗. 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>
