Tips 
 * Don't be afraid to edit! Just find something that can be improved and make it better. Other editors will help fix any mistakes you make.
 * It's normal to feel a little overwhelmed, but don't worry if you don't understand everything at first—it's fine to edit using common sense.
 * If an edit you make is reverted, you can discuss the issue at the article's talk page. Be civil, and don't restore the edit unless there is consensus.
 * Always use edit summaries to explain your changes.
 * When adding new content to an article, always include a citation to a reliable source.
 * If you wish to edit about a subject with which you are affiliated, read our conflict of interest guide and disclose your connection.
 * Have fun! Your presence in the Wikipedia community is welcome.

Happy editing! Cheers, Pharaoh of the Wizards (talk) 07:00, 4 June 2023 (UTC)

Hello, North of the Zambezi,

You tagged this article for deletion SECONDS after it was created. This is not done. You can't tag an article for deletion right after its creation, while the content creator is still working on it. And you only have 96 edits, you do not have enough editing experience to judge what articles should be deleted. Please stop patrolling articles and work on improving your editing skills, writing some articles or at least improving them rather than passing judgment on the work of other editors. Thank you.

 * Looking over your contributions for the past two days, this is clearly not your first account. What were the previous account(s) that you used before this one? Please mention them on your User page before you get associated with a sockpuppet master. Liz Read! Talk! 07:28, 4 June 2023 (UTC)


 * And then you tagged NoBull for deletion ONE MINUTE after it was created. If this behavior continues after this block is over, you can expect an indefinite block for a lack of competence. You are doing more damage than helping the project. Stop patrolling other editor's articles. Liz Read! Talk! 06:20, 5 June 2023 (UTC)


 * Noted. I will slow down with the NPPing.  Lu Gus Declan Biba  Elodie Barnaby  06:23, 5 June 2023 (UTC)

Having a conflict of interest is not prohibited
Hi, regarding the edit summary of Special:Diff/1158568711 and the edits around the Nadine George-Graves article, please do check the guideline again to see if it actually contains a prohibition on conflict of interest editing. ~ ToBeFree (talk) 22:25, 4 June 2023 (UTC)

June 2023
 You have been blocked from editing for a period of 72 hours for low-quality patrolling. Once the block has expired, you are welcome to make useful contributions. If you think there are good reasons for being unblocked, please read the guide to appealing blocks, then add the following text at the bottom of your talk page:. ~ ToBeFree (talk) 22:36, 4 June 2023 (UTC)


 * Creating an entire new article isn't a recommended task for beginners either, as they're unlikely to find a topic meeting the notability criteria that Wikipedia doesn't yet have an article about.
 * Expanding existing articles or fixing their spelling would be fine. After the 72 hours, that is, to ensure that "slowing down" isn't an empty promise. ~ ToBeFree (talk) 22:48, 4 June 2023 (UTC)
 * Good idea.  Lu Gus Declan Biba  Elodie Barnaby  22:51, 4 June 2023 (UTC)
