Hello. This is a message to let you know that one or more of your recent contributions, such as the edit(s) you made to Coldplay, did not appear to be constructive and have been reverted. Please take some time to familiarise yourself with our policies and guidelines. You can find information about these at our welcome page which also provides further information about contributing constructively to this encyclopedia. If you only meant to make test edits, please use your sandbox for that. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you may leave a message on my talk page. British English is used in this article, so it was already grammatically correct. 4TheWynne (talk • contribs) 05:20, 28 June 2022 (UTC)

How exactly does “Coldplay are a” make any grammatical sense?--Coughers (talk) 16:54, 28 June 2022 (UTC)

As I said, British English is used in the article; British English mostly treats collective nouns as plurals (see WP:ENGVAR and MOS:PLURALS). 4TheWynne (talk • contribs) 01:36, 29 June 2022 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Draft:Corporate Republic of Nick

Although everyone is welcome to contribute to Wikipedia, introducing hoaxes, such as Draft:Corporate Republic of Nick, is considered to be vandalism and is prohibited. If you are interested in how accurate Wikipedia is, a more constructive test method would be to try to find inaccurate statements that are already in Wikipedia—and then to correct them if possible. If you would like to make test edits, please use the sandbox. Under section G3 of the criteria for speedy deletion, the page has been nominated for deletion. Repeated vandalism may result in the loss of editing privileges.

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. —pythoncoder (talk | contribs) 05:31, 17 December 2023 (UTC)
