Dioxen11
FYI, you welcomed this user (with a welcome message of "Thank you for your contributions") after they were warned for the only edit they had. Perhaps you need to slow down. I dream of horses (Hoofprints) (Neigh at me) 22:03, 9 January 2024 (UTC)
 * Thanks for the message. I saw that warning from and I thought that  could use the welcome/guide to find the teahouse. Dioxen11's edit was not vandalism, and Dioxen11 appeared to be an editor who needed guidance. They were never welcomed and Materialscientist advised them that they needed to support your changes with a citation to a reliable source. I hope that helps explain.

 * I received your welcome when I started editing. It was helpful and I made use of the Teahouse. So my idea in handing out the welcome was if someone is fumbling around or getting reverted maybe they just need help or direction. I just wanted to say I got the message about me handing out the welcome template. I will slow it down or stop altogether. Have a great week. Bruxton (talk) 22:37, 9 January 2024 (UTC)
 * It's probably better to give more individualized help in this instance rather than giving out a welcome template. Templating doesn't always make sense. I dream of horses (Hoofprints) (Neigh at me) 23:07, 9 January 2024 (UTC)
 * I appreciate the advice. Bruxton (talk) 23:25, 9 January 2024 (UTC)

 * Thanks, I was so struck by the image and loss. I can see that kind of tragedy sells as it got close to 42,000 views. Bruxton (talk) 15:03, 14 January 2024 (UTC)

Don't bite the newbies :)
Hi, Bruxton! I noticed you draftified the Latvia (1918-1940) article six minutes after it had been created by a user with fewer than 30 edits. I wanted to send you a friendly reminder that as part of NPP, we should "wait at least an hour before nominating an article for deletion, blank-and-redirecting it, or moving it to draftspace" unless the article is attack page, has a severe copyright violation, or is blatant vandalism (see WP:NPPHOUR). Take care, Significa liberdade (she/her) (talk) 02:06, 26 January 2024 (UTC)
 * Thanks for the note. I checked their talk page and the fact that they had 22 total edits. All three of their article starts were sent to draft. It seemed prudent to have them work on this one in draft space. I understand the concern though. Bruxton (talk) 03:17, 26 January 2024 (UTC)
 * forgot to ping. Bruxton (talk) 03:19, 26 January 2024 (UTC)
