Welcome to Wikipedia, and thank you for your contributions. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, please note that there is a Manual of Style that should be followed to maintain a consistent, encyclopedic appearance. Deviating from this style, as you did in LeBron James, disturbs uniformity among articles and may cause readability or accessibility problems. Please take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Specifically per MOS:REPEATLINK, links are generally not repeated. —Bagumba (talk) 04:35, 14 July 2019 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Blue Water Area Conference


A tag has been placed on Blue Water Area Conference requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a person, a group of people, an individual animal, an organization (band, club, company, etc.), web content, or an organized event that does not credibly indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please read more about what is generally accepted as notable.

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. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the. Crystallizedcarbon (talk) 22:48, 3 October 2019 (UTC)

You should first improve the article at Draft:Blue Water Area Conference and then submit it for review. --Crystallizedcarbon (talk) 22:51, 3 October 2019 (UTC)

Copying within Wikipedia requires attribution
Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you copied or moved text from Lucas and Marcus into Cyrus Dobre. 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. The attribution has been provided for this situation, but if you have copied material between pages before, even if it was a long time ago, please provide attribution for that duplication. You can read more about the procedure and the reasons at Copying within Wikipedia. Thank you. If you are the sole author of the prose that was copied, attribution is not required. — 🎆 Diannaa 🍁 (talk) 14:07, 1 January 2020 (UTC)

2020 Michigan State Spartans football team moved to draftspace
An article you recently created, 2020 Michigan State Spartans football team, 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. buidhe 21:13, 4 February 2020 (UTC)

Disambiguation link notification for February 11
Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited 2020 Ohio State Buckeyes football team, you added links pointing to the disambiguation pages Memorial Stadium and Spartan Stadium ([//dispenser.info.tm/~dispenser/cgi-bin/dablinks.py/2020_Ohio_State_Buckeyes_football_team check to confirm] | [//dispenser.info.tm/~dispenser/cgi-bin/dab_solver.py/2020_Ohio_State_Buckeyes_football_team?client=notify fix with Dab solver]). Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ* Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)

Hello, I'm. I saw your contribution to the Detroit Lions article this morning, but while it's possible that they have "unofficially" retired Megatron's #81, there was no reference provided, so the edit had to be reverted.

Proposed deletion of Jalen Elliott


The article Jalen Elliott has been proposed for deletion because it appears to have no references. Under Wikipedia policy, this biography of a living person will be deleted after seven days unless it has at least one reference to a reliable source that directly supports material in the article.

Once you have provided at least one reliable source, you may remove the prod blp/dated tag. Please do not remove the tag unless the article is sourced. If you cannot provide such a source within seven days, the article may be deleted, but you can when you are ready to add one. CAPTAIN RAJU (T) 20:57, 10 January 2021 (UTC)
