User talk:ArekSmith

Your drafts
Hi ArekSmith, and welcome to Wikipedia. You've created a lot of drafts, and your enthusiasm is great! Unfortunately, I don't think any of them will be acceptable Wikipedia articles. It looks like you're creating drafts about people and places in your local community and at school, and none of them appear to meet Wikipedia's definition of "notable". For something to have a Wikipedia article, it needs to have been written about in several reliable sources (like newspapers or books). You should also be careful about how much information you're putting out there; based on what you've written, it's possible to find out a lot of information about you. GeneralNotability (talk) 18:14, 4 December 2020 (UTC)

December 2020
Please do not remove Articles for deletion notices from articles or remove other people's comments in Articles for deletion pages, as you did with Draft:Cory Burkus. Doing so won't stop the discussion from taking place. You are, however, welcome to comment about the proposed deletion on the appropriate page. Thank you. Praxidicae (talk) 18:17, 4 December 2020 (UTC)

Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to add unsourced or poorly sourced content, as you did at 2005, you may be blocked from editing. Elizium23 (talk) 00:49, 19 December 2020 (UTC)

You may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you add unsourced material to Wikipedia, as you did at 2005. Elizium23 (talk) 01:33, 19 December 2020 (UTC)

Please STOP creating drafts of non-notable people
Hello. This is a message to let you know that one or more of your recent contributions did not appear constructive. 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.

Please STOP creating drafts which do not demonstrate that the person MIGHT meet Wikipedia's notability requirements. Each draft should have at least one, preferably 3-5, references from reliable sources that are independent of the topic which - and this is very important - cover the subject in some detail and which is not "routine coverage." Most if not all of your un-sourced drafts have been nominated for deletion at Wikipedia:Miscellany for deletion/Draft:Cory Burkus and more may be added to that list. Before continuing, please read WP:About, WP:My first article, and WP:What Wikipedia is not. Bottom line: If the person hasn't been discussed in depth in at least one reliable source in a "non-routine" way, don't bother creating a draft. If you want your existing drafts deleted, please put a note on Wikipedia:Miscellany for deletion/Draft:Cory Burkus asking them to be removed. davidwr/ (talk)/(contribs)  18:30, 4 December 2020 (UTC)
 * The same goes for non-notable police departments. Instead, create a section in the article about the corresponding town, county, or other government entity. davidwr/  (talk)/(contribs)  18:36, 4 December 2020 (UTC)

Nomination for deletion of Template:Lowell, Indiana
Template:Lowell, Indiana has been nominated for deletion. You are invited to comment on the discussion at the entry on the Templates for discussion page. davidwr/ (talk)/(contribs)  18:44, 4 December 2020 (UTC)

Category:Indinan Town Templates has been nominated for deletion
Category:Indinan Town Templates has been nominated for deletion. A discussion is taking place to decide whether this proposal complies with the categorization guidelines. If you would like to participate in the discussion, you are invited to add your comments at the category's entry on the categories for discussion page. Thank you. davidwr/ (talk)/(contribs)  18:50, 4 December 2020 (UTC)

Please request deletion of non-notable drafts
Thank you for choosing to spend your time making Wikipedia better.

Learning to create articles is no easy feat. If you haven't already tried out WP:The Wikipedia Adventure I recommend doing so. It wasn't around when I was new, but I've heard that it really helps new editors "learn the ropes."

I noticed that you have created a large number of draft articles (a list of your draft articles and draft-article talk pages that have not been deleted yet, a full list of pages created by you, including deleted pages and non-draft pages). Some of these have already been deleted. Many have been nominated for deletion.

You have also created a number of templates and categories which may or may not be useful to the project (a list of all pages created by you that have not been deleted yet OTHER than draft articles and their talk pages). As you can see from messages higher up on this page, I have already nominated one template and one category for deletion.

For those draft articles NOT already nominated for deletion which do not meet Wikipedia's notability criteria (found at WP:Notability and the pages it links to), please consider asking for deletion under speedy deletion criteria WP:G7, "Author requests deletion."

For those nominated for "speedy deletion" you do not have to do anything, they will be deleted soon.

For those nominated for deletion through a deletion discussion, go to the page where the discussion is happening and say which ones you want deleted.

If you would like to have any templates or categories deleted, please leave a note here and I will help you get them deleted as well.

"Pruning" your contributions that will never "make it" into the main encyclopedia will go a long way to showing your fellow editors that you really are here to build an encyclopedia rather than being here to just create drafts that will never make it into the main encyclopedia. Being NOT here to build an encyclopedia usually results in more and more people telling you "don't do this" and "don't do that" which gets frustrating for you and for us. Eventually, it can lead to your editing privileges being suspended.

I for one am glad you have chosen to contribute to this large, worldwide project. With a little practice and a lot of attention to detail, you can become a valuable contributor to Wikipedia. I speak from experience - my early days here were, let's just put it this way, I had my editing privileges suspended. But after they were restored, I've made many valuable contributions to the project, even receiving some peer recognition along the way. davidwr/ (talk)/(contribs)  19:52, 4 December 2020 (UTC)

Your accountname
Are you sure that you wish to retain this account-name? If it is possibly your real-name you should take a look at WP:REALNAME. Shearonink (talk) 15:09, 5 December 2020 (UTC)

Signing your posts on WP Talk pages
Thank you for signing your talk page posts. Just wanted to let you know that per WP:SIGHOW editors are supposed to sign at the end of their posts... Cheers, Shearonink (talk) 15:16, 5 December 2020 (UTC)

On signing posts
It is customary to put the ~ "signature" at the END of your messages rather than the BEGINNING, as you did in this edit and several other recent edits.

This is why your name and the date are showing up before your comments instead of after. davidwr/ (talk)/(contribs)  15:17, 5 December 2020 (UTC)
 * It looks like another editor noticed the same thing about a minute before I posted this. Sorry for the duplicate message.  Had I seen his message, I would not have made mine.  davidwr/  (talk)/(contribs)  15:19, 5 December 2020 (UTC)
 * Yeah just trying to help here...sorry about the multiple posts. Shearonink (talk) 15:36, 5 December 2020 (UTC)

Welcome!
Hello and welcome to Wikipedia. Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. The following links will help you begin editing on Wikipedia:
 * The five pillars of Wikipedia
 * Contributing to Wikipedia
 * How to edit a page
 * Editing tutorial
 * Picture tutorial
 * How to write a great article
 * Naming conventions
 * Simplified Manual of Style

Please bear these points in mind while editing Wikipedia:
 * Respect copyrights – do not copy and paste text or images directly from other websites.
 * Maintain a neutral point of view – this is one of Wikipedia's core policies.
 * Take particular care while adding biographical material about a living person to any Wikipedia page and follow Wikipedia's Biography of Living Persons policy. Particularly, controversial and negative statements should be referenced with multiple reliable sources.
 * No edit warring or abuse of multiple accounts.
 * If you are testing, please use the Sandbox to [ do so].
 * Do not add troublesome content to any article, such as: copyrighted text, libel, advertising or promotional messages, and text that is not related to an article's subject; doing so will result in your account or IP being blocked from editing.
 * Do not use talk pages as discussion or forum pages as Wikipedia is not a forum.

The Wikipedia tutorial is a good place to start learning about Wikipedia. If you have any questions, see the help pages, add a question to the village pump or ask me on my talk page. By the way, you can sign your name on Talk and discussion pages using four tildes, like this: &#126;&#126;&#126;&#126; (the software will replace them with your signature and the date). Again, welcome! Shearonink (talk) 20:58, 6 December 2020 (UTC)

Images instructions
To use a picture on Wikipedia, we need permission from whoever owns it.


 * If it is your OWN image - meaning you created it yourself (not, for example, from a book or magazine you happen to own) - then you can just upload it at "Commons", saying "It is entirely my own work" - see http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Upload.
 * If it is NOT YOURS, and you are uploading it straight onto Wikipedia without checking about the image's copyright status - Stop. Seriously...please stop. Wikipedia cannot use it. Wikipedia cannot use images that are just taken off of other sources on the internet, we take copyright & people's ownership of their own work - like photos - very seriously. Refer to Guidelines for images for a short summation & explanation of these guidelines.
 * If it is NOT YOURS, and you are in contact with the image's owner, then the owner can give permission in two ways;
 * A) They could put it on a website (flickr, or their own site) with an appropriate licence, such as "Public Domain" or "Creative Commons Attribution Share-Alike" (that is an option in flickr)
 * B) They could email us permission. You could ask them to do that, by sending them an email saying something like:
 * "Hi, I've written a page on Wikipedia, and I'd really like to add a picture - but as Wikipedia is FREE, we can only use freely-licensed pictures. If you have any images which you can give permission for, please send me an email back with the text below, and the picture(s) attached."
 * -Then add a copy of this: http://enwp.org/user:chzz/help/myboilerplate (having filled the form out)


 * -And send the email (attached picture file + completed form) to: permissions-commons@wikimedia.org

If any of your questions about how to insert images into an article aren't answered in these instructions, additional information is available at the following links:

Easy tutorial for how to upload images

Easy list of Image Do's & Do NOTs Noticeboard for media copyright questions - "Ask the Expert" for when you need assistance

Lowell Volunteer Fire Department (Indiana) moved to draftspace
An article you recently created, Lowell Volunteer Fire Department (Indiana), is not suitable as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. (?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of " " before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page. – robertsky (talk) 07:06, 23 June 2021 (UTC)
