Your comments at SPI

Hi, I'm making this warning in my capacity as a CheckUser. I've noticed multiple cases where you've commented with comments that aren't particularly helpful and are if anything distracting or disruptive to the SPI process. Directing admins to block and for a certain length of time is not something anyone should be doing, but particularly not a new user with very little experience on Misplaced Pages. Adding duck templates is also generally a waste of time if you don't explain it. If you continue to do so, a clerk, another CheckUser, or myself may request that you stop making comments at SPI all together per the SPI procedures.​​ TonyBallioni (talk) 03:22, 2 January 2019 (UTC)

I'm also gonna chime in here as you should definitely not be tagging accounts like you did here. Leave this to administrators or at the very least, experienced editors. Praxidicae (talk) 14:34, 3 January 2019 (UTC)

As a third voice, edits like Special:Diff/877097671 are unnecessary and do not need to happen (as given by the subsequent edit where the user reverted the edit). Please stop tagging user pages with unnecessary tags, unless you wish to find yourself staring at sanctions. Primefac (talk) 00:18, 7 January 2019 (UTC)

But my wikipedia account does not have an email account link Raksh rathod (talk) 17:02, 8 June 2020 (UTC)

@Raksh rathod: Then add one, please stop discussing on my talk page and ask that on the Teahouse. –User456541 17:05, 8 June 2020 (UTC)

How to add email account, tell me Sir Raksh rathod (talk) 17:09, 8 June 2020 (UTC)

@Raksh rathod: Go to your preferences. As I said, please continue discussing this on the Teahouse, I can't let you turn my talk page into a Discord DM channel. –User456541 17:12, 8 June 2020 (UTC)

Ok Thanks sir Raksh rathod (talk) 17:14, 8 June 2020 (UTC)

@Raksh rathod: Email a sysop (administrator). –User456541 17:00, 8 June 2020 (UTC) Tell me email account of sysop (administrator) Raksh rathod (talk) 02:12, 9 June 2020 (UTC)

@Raksh rathod: Go to this page, click on an administrator's username, and on the left bar, click "email this user". Didn't I tell you to continue discussing this on the Teahouse?!?! Don't make me request protection of this page. –User456541 12:30, 9 June 2020 (UTC)

Blanking message template

Hi, just for future reference, {{uw-blank1}} is a better message template to use than {{uw-delete1}} when someone has completely blanked a page. Similarly with the level 2 templates. — Smjg (talk) 20:24, 15 June 2020 (UTC)

Speedy deletion contested: Draft:Sklavenkasse

Hello User456541. I am just letting you know that I contested the speedy deletion of Draft:Sklavenkasse, a page you tagged for speedy deletion, because of the following concern: Not unambiguously promotional. Thank you. Passengerpigeon (talk) 12:46, 16 June 2020 (UTC)

Why did you delete my Sklavenkasse article???

I only translated the German version for Sklavenkasse and added a calculation. WTF? Mannikosblog (talk) 14:33, 16 June 2020 (UTC)

@Mannikosblog: I didn't delete the article, I'm not an administrator. Check the deletion log of the page, or contact the administrator that deleted the page. –User456541 14:37, 16 June 2020 (UTC)

@User456541: Looks to me like you did: https://i.ibb.co/v4XJMXM/deletion.png Mannikosblog (talk) 16:30, 16 June 2020 (UTC)

@Mannikosblog: It was a failed candidate for speedy deletion. Your page has NOT been deleted. –User456541 17:07, 16 June 2020 (UTC)

@User456541: Maybe I get this completely wrong, but I can still see the draft and not the final article, while somebody requested a deletion, although not "speedy". Was that you who wants it to be gone and if so why? In case somebody else wants to delete it: Why exactly? Thanks Mannikosblog (talk) 17:31, 16 June 2020 (UTC)

Misplaced Pages:Oversight

Since you apparently aren't reading the replies to your emails to the oversight ticket queue, I must respond to you here. Special:EmailUser/Oversight is for requests for material to be suppressed for a qualifying reason under our policy Misplaced Pages:Oversight. It is not for routine requests under any of the criteria for speedy deletion. Speedy deletion requests are submitted by placing a template on the page to be deleted.

Further, I struggle to understand the purpose of this edit, and there is no content on that page which is eligible for either Oversight or Speedy Deletion.

Please familiarize yourself with our Oversight policy at the previous link, and our speedy deletion process at WP:CSD, before your next email to this mailbox. By sending routine speedy deletion requests you are only wasting your own time as this is not the correct venue for such requests, and drawing our time and attention away from the urgent and privacy sensitive matters that mailbox is intended for. ST47 (talk) 15:28, 16 June 2020 (UTC)

@ST47: It's because for some reason, I don't get reply emails. –User456541 15:30, 16 June 2020 (UTC)

 Comment: I now got the email after accepting "notifications for high-priority emails". –User456541 15:34, 16 June 2020 (UTC)

If you have been using e-mail because you were worried about admins not noticing the deletion tag, the speedy deletion templates already add the pages they are placed on to a category that is monitored by administrators. Passengerpigeon (talk) 22:08, 16 June 2020 (UTC)

Your reports made to Misplaced Pages:Administrator intervention against vandalism (“AIV”)

I declined two of your reports for users KARTIKSR3 and Kishanjack15 as the edits were not vandalism. Please only use AIV to report vandalism needing quick admin action to block. The only concern I see with those accounts is conflict of interest, which should be raised on their talk page first versus reporting. See Misplaced Pages:Conflict_of_interest#How_to_handle_conflicts_of_interest for more info on this. Thanks, N.J.A. | talk 15:50, 16 June 2020 (UTC)

CSD

Hi, noticed that you have recently mistagged a number of articles for speedy deletion including G11. Please read WP:CSD as speedy deletion is only for the worst articles, regards Atlantic306 (talk) 19:31, 16 June 2020 (UTC)

• To clarify, here is an example of a page that would be eligible for deletion under criterion G11 (do not place a tag on that actual page, as it is an illustrative example). G11 is only for pages that consist entirely of promotional puffery, where there is basically no useful encyclopedic content and the entire article would need to be blanked and rewritten to comply with Misplaced Pages's content policies. If you would like to gain a better understanding of Misplaced Pages policies, including the deletion policy, consider accepting my adoption offer. Passengerpigeon (talk) 21:57, 16 June 2020 (UTC)

Speedy deletion contested: Draft:Frazer Scott Lee

Hello User456541. I am just letting you know that I contested the speedy deletion of Draft:Frazer Scott Lee, a page you tagged for speedy deletion, because of the following concern: Not unambiguously promotional. Thank you. Passengerpigeon (talk) 21:51, 16 June 2020 (UTC)

Adoption offer

Hello, I am Passengerpigeon. I would be happy to take you on as an adoptee under the Misplaced Pages adoption process. If you choose to accept the offer, please send me a message on my talk page accepting the nomination, then click here and paste in the code {{subst:User:Passengerpigeon/Adoption school}}. This will create your Adoption School page, which is where you can do exercises and answer questions that will develop your knowledge of Misplaced Pages policies. You can get started right away with the exercises if you want, even before I respond to your talk message. If you have any other questions or concerns, please contact me on my talk page. Thanks! Passengerpigeon (talk) 21:58, 16 June 2020 (UTC)

• Thanks for taking up the offer. Please post a message on my talk page once you have completed some of the exercises. Passengerpigeon (talk) 00:48, 17 June 2020 (UTC)

• Thanks for completing the first exercise; I am marking it now. Next time, you can edit the page directly rather than e-mailing me the answers. Passengerpigeon (talk) 21:28, 17 June 2020 (UTC)

• I have marked the section on speedy deletion. On two of the answers that were not correct, I've given you an opportunity to try again. Passengerpigeon (talk) 01:19, 18 June 2020 (UTC)

• I am currently marking your answers to the Proposed Deletion section. You are beginning to get the hang of deletion policies, but still have some work to do if that is an area you are enthusiastic about working in on Misplaced Pages. I have given you the option of trying again on a few questions in the speedy deletion and proposed deletion sections - please do this, as the marks you get the second time will override the marks you got on the first attempt. Thanks for participating in this adoption program. Passengerpigeon (talk) 00:43, 19 June 2020 (UTC)

Speedy deletion declined

Hello,

I have declined the G5 speedy deletion nomination on User:Abijitark/sandbox. This is because the page was created 1 April 2020 and the block for the account was 24 April 2020. G5 only applies to pages created after the oldest block (i.e. a page created after 24 April 2020 would be eligible, but a page created before then is not eligible). In other words, taking from the WP:CSD, To qualify, the edit or page must have been made while the user was actually banned or blocked. A page created before the ban or block was imposed or after it was lifted will not qualify under this criterion. Dreamy Jazz 22:00, 22 June 2020 (UTC)

Luis Jonne speedy deletion request

Thank you for the notice about your request. Please keep in mind that A7 is not a valid reason for requesting speedy deletion of an article that makes a clear claim of notability (as this article did - Jonne is an international footballer). If you have any questions feel free to let me know. Best regards. Jogurney (talk) 21:22, 23 June 2020 (UTC)
