What disruptive editing? - Billybob2002 (talk) 02:44, 30 April 2013 (UTC)


 * A full 75% of your edits are disruptive or useless. People have been trying to guide you to relevant policies since you started editing, but you just blanked all their advice from your talk page, and now you have nothing but warnings on your talk page. Start behaving intelligently, or you will find yourself blocked. GDallimore (Talk) 09:47, 30 April 2013 (UTC)

So that is a compliment, because 25% of them are good! :) Anyways, my above question was asking what article(s) in particular was disruptive. - Billybob2002 (talk) 03:09, 2 May 2013 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of List of former Presidential Candidates
Hello Billybob2002,

I wanted to let you know that I just tagged List of former Presidential Candidates for deletion, because it appears to duplicate an existing Wikipedia article, :.

If you feel that the article shouldn't be deleted, you can contest this deletion, but please don't remove the speedy deletion tag from the top.

You can leave a note on my talk page if you have questions. Thanks, fix Barney the barney barney (talk) 22:11, 5 May 2013 (UTC)


 * Please check whether articles exist before you create duplicates of them. Otherwise you just waste your time and others.  In this case you duplicated List of United States presidential candidates, and it wasn't even very complete. Please also remember that other republics exits outside of the United States which have presidents, and other organisations even have presidents, and as such it's always "United States presidential candidates" rather than "presidential candidates".

Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Wikipedia, as you did at Adam. Your edits appear to be disruptive and have been reverted or removed. Please ensure you are familiar with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines, and please do not continue to make edits that appear disruptive, until the dispute is resolved through consensus. Continuing to edit disruptively could result in loss of editing privileges. Thank you. ''The cited ref is very explicit. You can also read the linked target page (and various related talkpages) to find extensive consensus on use of the term "creation myth". You'll need an explicit and consensus reason to change that.''

 * If you are engaged in an article content dispute with another editor then please discuss the matter with the editor at their talk page, or the article's talk page. Alternatively you can read Wikipedia's dispute resolution page, and ask for independent help at one of the relevant notice boards.
 * If you are engaged in any other form of dispute that is not covered on the dispute resolution page, please seek assistance at Wikipedia's Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents.

And if you'd look at the history of the Senate election article you'd see that I found the source to list him as a potential candidate. So I am aware he has not announced he's running, and so would you be if you'd look at the Senate election article or the source used on the page. Ratemonth (talk) 02:54, 2 June 2013 (UTC)

Yes, I did not realize at the time that he was listed as potential. -- Billybob2002 (talk) 02:58, 2 June 2013 (UTC)

Replaceable fair use File:Picture of Tom Emmer.jpg
Thanks for uploading File:Picture of Tom Emmer.jpg. I noticed the description page specifies that this media item is being used under a claim of fair use, but its use in Wikipedia articles fails the first non-free content criterion in that it illustrates a subject for which a freely licensed media item could be found or created that provides substantially the same information or which could be adequately covered with text alone. If you believe this media item is not replaceable, please:


 * 1) Go to the file description page and edit it to add, without deleting the original replaceable fair use template.
 * 2) On the file discussion page, write the reason why this media item is not replaceable at all.

Alternatively, you can also choose to replace this non-free media item by finding freely licensed media of the same subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or similar) media under a free license, or by creating new media yourself (for example, by taking your own photograph of the subject).

If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified how these media fully satisfy our non-free content criteria. You can find a list of description pages you have edited by clicking on [ this link]. Note that even if you follow steps 1 and 2 above, non-free media which could be replaced by freely licensed alternatives will be deleted 2 days after this notification (7 days if uploaded before 13 July 2006), per the non-free content policy.

Jeff Johnson (Minnesota politician)
Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. We appreciate your, but for legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted.

You may use external websites as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. This part is crucial: say it in your own words.

If the external website belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text — which means allowing other people to modify it — then you must include on the external site the statement "I, (name), am the author of this article, (article name), and I release its content under the terms of the GNU Free Documentation License, Version 1.2 and later, and under the terms of the Creative Commons Attribute Share-Alike."

You might want to look at Wikipedia's policies and guidelines for more details, or ask a question at the "Help Desk". You can also leave a message on my talk page. Jonathunder (talk) 23:01, 27 July 2013 (UTC)

Copyright concerns
As you've seen from previous discussion, we don't include copyright-violating items in the text. Relevant to your recent edits at David Barton, we also don't link to copyright-violating items, per WP:LINKVIO. In the case of YouTube, that means that we can generally link to something from an official account (if Beck's show itself had posted the video), but we don't link to it if others posted it... whether that is fans or detractors. --Nat Gertler (talk) 17:30, 30 July 2013 (UTC)

Links to pages
Hey, I noticed you put links to candidate pages that don't exist. There is no reason to have red links on a page, so from now on please check to make sure someone has a page before adding the  around their names. Rxguy (talk) 16:48, 5 August 2013 (UTC)
 * While Rxguy may be against redlinks, Wikipedia guidelines actually encourage redlinks within resaonable guidelines, as it has been found to encouraged growth in the encyclopedia. --Nat Gertler (talk) 17:30, 5 August 2013 (UTC)
 * To clarify: Candidates such as Gurley L. Martin, John Kemper, Greg Leichty, Ed Marksberry, Bennie J. Smith in the Kentucky Senate race are not what the Wikipedia guidelines that NatGertler mentioned refer to. They are unknown candidates with nothing significantly notable other than the fact that they are extreme long-shots as candidates. These are people that really have no reasonable shot at having a Wikipedia page, for good reasons, and would likely remain on the page for eternity as broken links.

Yes. The part of the requirement which states a politician with a significant level of press coverage might qualify John James' article for notability, as he has been featured on Fox News.

 * Hi. I see that you are new to article creation and to the AfD process.  Try not to get discouraged.  It takes a while to learn the ropes, and, as you have discovered the hard way, pages on  candidates for House seats are very rarely kept - a policy that exists for excellent reasons.  They can, however, be kept when a candidate is  drawing an extraordinarily attention (the kind of coverage Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez has gotten,) or when s/he has domes something earlier in life that is sufficiently  notable to support an article with WP:SIGCOV, even though no one had created such an article before the campaign.  It is not especially useful to iVote to "keep" articles at AfD.  What can keep articles at AfD is  hard work of by editors willing to build the article with reliable sources that actually meet the requirements of WP:SIGCOV.  If you've got the sources, you usually carry the day.  Cheers.E.M.Gregory (talk) 15:53, 10 August 2018 (UTC)

Bypassing redirects
Hi, I noticed in your edits to college lists that some of your changes to wikilinks have no apparent reason other than to bypass a redirect. Please note that per WP:NOTBROKEN, those changes are generally not recommended and they can be counter-productive. For example, you removed links to Gorham State College and Northern Conservatory of Music, which should probably be expanded into articles someday, and replaced them with links to the physical facilities where those schools were housed, which will be less-than-useful once those articles exist.

Hi Billybob2002! I noticed that you recently marked an edit as minor that may not have been. "Minor edit" has a very specific definition on Wikipedia—it refers only to superficial edits that could never be the subject of a dispute, such as typo corrections or reverting obvious vandalism. Any edit that changes the meaning of an article is not a minor edit, even if it only concerns a single word. ''Quite a few of your recent minor edits are actually substantial removals or additions of content. Somewhat unrelated, but please consider moving Who Knew It Would Be So Hard To Be Myself into the draft space or into a userpage until you have multiple reliable sources that establish the subject's notability. As it stands now, an Apple Music link is insufficient. ~'' Pbritti (talk) 00:41, 18 April 2024 (UTC)

Who Knew It Would Be So Hard To Be Myself moved to draftspace
Thanks for your contributions to Who Knew It Would Be So Hard To Be Myself. Unfortunately, I do not think it is ready for publishing at this time because it needs more sources to establish notability and sources linked do not show to fulfill WP:NALBUM requirements. I have converted your article to a draft which you can improve, undisturbed for a while.

Please see more information at Help:Unreviewed new page. When the article is ready for publication, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page OR move the page back. Broc (talk) 11:26, 18 April 2024 (UTC)

Hello, I'm Magnolia677. I noticed that you added or changed content in an article, Moorhead, Minnesota, 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. Magnolia677 (talk) 10:46, 2 June 2024 (UTC)

Replaceable non-free use File:Drew Wrigley, Attorney General of North Dakota, 2022.jpg
Thanks for uploading File:Drew Wrigley, Attorney General of North Dakota, 2022.jpg. I noticed that this file is being used under a claim of non-free use. However, I think that the way it is being used fails the first non-free content criterion. This criterion states that files used under claims of non-free use may have no free equivalent; in other words, if the file could be adequately covered by a freely-licensed file or by text alone, then it may not be used on Wikipedia. If you believe this file is not replaceable, please:


 * 1) Go to the file description page and add the text  below the original replaceable non-free use template, replacing   with a short explanation of why the file is not replaceable.
 * 2) On the file's talk page, write a full explanation of why you believe the file is not replaceable.

Alternatively, you can also choose to replace this non-free media item by finding freely licensed media of the same subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or similar) media under a free license, or by creating new media yourself (for example, by taking your own photograph of the subject).

If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified how these media fully satisfy our non-free content criteria. You can find a list of description pages you have edited by clicking on [ this link]. Note that even if you follow steps 1 and 2 above, non-free media which could be replaced by freely licensed alternatives will be deleted 2 days after this notification, per the non-free content policy. If you have any questions, please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

Speedy deletion nomination of File:Bonanzaville, USA Entrance; May 1, 2024.png


A tag has been placed on File:Bonanzaville, USA Entrance; May 1, 2024.png requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section F1 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the image is an unused duplicate or lower-quality copy of another file on Wikipedia having the same file format, and all inward links have been updated.

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.
