Proposed deletion of File:Manitoban Flag.png


The file File:Manitoban Flag.png has been proposed for deletion&#32;because of the following concern: "Redundant to c:File:Flag of Manitoba.svg which is a scalable SVG."

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the file's talk page.

Please consider addressing the issues raised. Removing will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist.

Welcome to Wikipedia and thank you for your contribution(s). I am glad to see that you are discussing a topic. However, as a general rule, while user talk pages permit a small degree of generaliation, other talk pages such as Talk:Yahweh are strictly for discussing improvements to their associated main pages, and many of them have special instructions on the top. They are not a general discussion forum about the article's topic or any other topic. If you have questions or ideas and are not sure where to post them, consider asking at the Teahouse. Thanks. tgeorgescu (talk) 14:58, 15 April 2023 (UTC)


 * I am confused why my edit was removed. I was trying to refute the name "Yahweh", not give personal thoughts.
 * Could you elaborate? Thewikipedian7534 (talk) 15:07, 15 April 2023 (UTC)


 * We are not interested in your "refutations". Take them to your own blog. tgeorgescu (talk) 15:08, 15 April 2023 (UTC)

Hello, I'm Tgeorgescu. I noticed that you added or changed content in an article, U, 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. tgeorgescu (talk) 15:00, 15 April 2023 (UTC)

Please do not add or change content, as you did at U, without citing a reliable source. Please review the guidelines at Citing sources and take this opportunity to add references to the article. Thank you. tgeorgescu (talk) 15:07, 15 April 2023 (UTC)

Please refrain from using talk pages such as Talk:Yahweh for general discussion of this or other topics. They are for discussion related to improving the article in specific ways, based on reliable sources and the project policies and guidelines; they are not for use as a forum or chat room. If you have specific questions about certain topics, consider visiting our reference desk and asking them there instead of on article talk pages. See the talk page guidelines for more information. Thank you. tgeorgescu (talk) 15:11, 15 April 2023 (UTC)

 * Perhaps you would not be in the position you're currently in if you had bothered to include reliable sources; then you might have been contributing to improving the article, rather than just stating your own unsourced opinion on the talk page. --jpgordon&#x1d122;&#x1d106;&#x1D110;&#x1d107; 22:22, 15 April 2023 (UTC)


 * No human knows what God's actual name is, assuming He has one. Yahweh is not God's name, nor is Yehowah nor Jehovah nor other such variants. It was simply God's answer to Moses when he asked what His name is. It means "I am that I am" or just "I am". That was God's polite way of telling Moses that He wasn't going to tell him His name. ←Baseball Bugs What's up, Doc? carrots→ 09:59, 16 April 2023 (UTC)


 * Agreed, "I am that I am" is Hebrew idiom for "mind your own business and don't ask my name". tgeorgescu (talk) 19:56, 20 April 2023 (UTC)

Some advice
I have been looking at your editing since I unblocked your account to give you another chance. I am glad to see that there has been no more of the totally unacceptable kinds of editing that occurred before the block. Thank you for that. However, I think I should warn you that there is a danger that you may be blocked again. I strongly recommend avoiding doing things such as creating joky userboxes and putting a large proportion of you editing into userspace pages, at least until you are much better established as an editor, because it risks giving the impression that you are here more to play around than to work for the encyclopaedia. Also some of your editing really doesn't make much sense; for example your proposal to merge sections from numerous articles on very different topics, just because they all refer to some kinds of needles. It is difficult to imagine how you might imagine that would be helpful. Where would you merge them to? Which article would you choose to contain all that information on so many different topics? And why would that be better than each needle being described in the article where it is relevant? I won't claim to know what your intention was, but it is likely to be seen as another example of playing around: "Ooh! I see that there's something called a merge proposal. I must have a go at one of those." Also if you do have good reasons for proposing a merge then you need to say what those reasons are: just posting a template into the articles and then going away and leaving it without giving any explanation is not helpful. Those are just a couple of examples, but the overall message is that you should try to make sure that all of your editing looks as though its purpose is to improve the encyclopaedia.

 * What is a user space page? G'year    talk     mail   13:58, 23 October 2023 (UTC)
 * It's a page with "User" at the front of its title: in your case User:A westman and User:A westman/vector-2022.css You have made almost as many edits to those two pages as you have to all articles. JBW (talk) 14:08, 23 October 2023 (UTC)
 * Ah. I have actually tried to focus on editing more mainspace pages and I guess this gives me another reason to edit in it more. G'year    talk     mail   14:12, 23 October 2023 (UTC)

Also your signature is really unhelpful. A signature on a message should make it easy for other editors to see who wrote the message, which yours doesn't. It should make it easy for anyone with a little experience of editing to see where to click to get to the editor's user talk page, and preferably also to their user page; again, your signature doesn't. Please change your signature. (Also, doing things such as making a joky signature may combine with other things such as making flippant edit boxes and "essays" to increase the impression that you are here more to play than anything else.) JBW (talk) 13:56, 23 October 2023 (UTC)

Actually, I have looked at the current version of you signature, and it does make it clear how to get to your talk page, but the rest is still true. JBW (talk) 14:01, 23 October 2023 (UTC)


 * I tweaked it a bit. What more changes should I make? A westman    talk     e-mail   14:15, 23 October 2023 (UTC)
 * That's fine. Thanks for changing it. JBW (talk) 14:34, 23 October 2023 (UTC)

Username
I think you should know that a couple of people have questioned by decsion to change your name, because you are still blocked on Wiktionary, and I shouldn't have accepted your rename request unless you were unblocked everywhere. It is therefore possible that your account may be reverted to its previous username. JBW (talk) 13:45, 23 October 2023 (UTC)

UTRS appeal #82123 is closed.
I think your problem is more a lack of competence than nothere after reading this thread--. It is troubling that you are now on your second indefinite block. It is rare to be unblocked after the second indefinite block. You also created the Mayn't account (Special:CentralAuth/Mayn%27t) after your reblock. No it was 2 minutes before. it would help if the timestamps were consistent So again, you are not eligible for unblocking until April 23, 2024. If you achieve unblock and wish to cleanstart, notify the ArbCom of the connection to the old account. UTRS will read no further appeals until after April 23, 2024. Best
