Balidhiig moved to draftspace
An article you recently created, Balidhiig, does not have enough sources and citations 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.

Creating redirects
Please use the normal Article creation process, as you did when you originally created, to create a new redirect rather than moving and repurposing it. Just because a redirect you created was a recent subject of vandalism does not make it a valid reason to move it. Jalen Folf  (talk)  17:37, 28 September 2020 (UTC)

Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you copied or moved text from one or more pages into another page. While you are welcome to re-use Wikipedia's content, here or elsewhere, Wikipedia's licensing does require that you provide attribution to the original contributor(s). When copying within Wikipedia, this is supplied at minimum in an edit summary at the page into which you've copied content, disclosing the copying and linking to the copied page, e.g.,. It is good practice, especially if copying is extensive, to also place a properly formatted copied template on the talk pages of the source and destination. Please provide attribution for this duplication if it has not already been supplied by another editor, and if you have copied material between pages before, even if it was a long time ago, you should provide attribution for that also. You can read more about the procedure and the reasons at Copying within Wikipedia. Thank you. Snowycats (talk) 06:29, 17 October 2020 (UTC)

Photo collage
Could you stop reverting my edits on Burco? I'm trying to add a photo collage of the city. Dabaqabad (talk) 01:08, 6 January 2021 (UTC)

Addressing our disagreement
Walal, we need to figure out an agreement. These 3 pages that you keep reverting. The kulmiye page I am the one who added the list of leader section it was not there until I added it. The Warabe page, I am the one who uploaded to old picture a few years ago as it was the only fair use picture available but leasts be honest it is not a great picture and could use updating. And lastly if you go check I am the one who created the entire election page for the parliamentary election all the way back in 2017. I uploaded everyone of those 3 pictures at the time and I feel they could use updating as none of them are great pictures. I don't understand why you are so attached to old pictures but I am willing to make an agreement with you over them, if not we can continue to keep reverting each other forever. I don't think it is fair that I am doing so much work to improve Somaliland related pages, creating pages, adding information etc, yet you are able to dictate what pictures get to be used. I am willing to be reasonable so let's discuss.

It doesn’t matter. This picture is too old to be in Wikipedia. It should be removed. Buufin (talk) 06:39, 11 February 2021 (UTC)

Okay fine if you think the Warabe picture is too old, even though the other one is relatively old too. What is your issue with the other pictures? Subayerboombastic (talk) 07:09, 11 February 2021 (UTC)

October 2021
Welcome to Wikipedia. We appreciate your contributions, but in one of your recent edits to Balidhiig, it appears that you have added original research, which is against Wikipedia's policies. Original research refers to material—such as facts, allegations, ideas, and personal experiences—for which no reliable, published sources exist; it also encompasses combining published sources in a way to imply something that none of them explicitly say. Please be prepared to cite a reliable source for all of your contributions. You can have a look at the tutorial on citing sources. Thank you. Yamaguchi先生 (talk) 21:27, 28 October 2021 (UTC)
