CVU Academy Trainer
Hello! I don't want to discourage you in any way, but you added yourself to the list of trainers for the Counter-Vandalism Unit Academy. While I am, personally, hesitant to doubt skills of a person based on a single action, I don't think you have the experience to instruct students, especially given your current general lack of editing experience. As mentioned in the page, instructors should have experience in anti-vandalism work on the project, and that new users likely do not have the experience to instruct students. While it is highly unlikely, I want to ask you to ask yourself whether you have the experience to instruct others in anti-vandalism before putting yourself down as an instructor.

Yes This is just my new account as my old account got hacked KoalaLou9 (talk) 07:59, 29 May 2020 (UTC)

In that case, best of luck to you! EggRoll97 (talk) 08:01, 29 May 2020 (UTC)

Thankyou KoalaLou9 (talk) 08:04, 29 May 2020 (UTC)
 * , hi. You've said that your previous account was hacked. This is awkward, since we cannot verify that - please withdraw now as a CVUA trainer, unless you can establish what your previous account was, or until you demonstrate competence in counter vandalism work under your new account. Girth Summit  (blether)  22:18, 31 May 2020 (UTC)
 * Just wanted to inform you that I've removed you from the list of trainers - we don't want newer users turned away by a potentially inexperienced trainer (no offence intended at all). I hope you realize why I made this decision - I echo Girth Summit's thoughts above - if you can show good experience, I'd be happy to restore. All the best, -- puddleglum  2.0  20:10, 9 June 2020 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Melbourne Tramcar Preservation Association


A tag has been placed on Melbourne Tramcar Preservation Association 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 company, corporation or organization 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.  Passenger pigeon  ( talk )  08:24, 12 June 2020 (UTC)

Melbourne Tramcar Preservation Association
After seeing your message that you are working on the page, I have removed the speedy deletion tag from your article and moved it into draft-space, at Draft:Melbourne Tramcar Preservation Association. There, you can work on it without risk of deletion. Once it indicates the notability of the subject, you can then move it back into article-space at Melbourne Tramcar Preservation Association. Thankyou,  Passenger pigeon  ( talk )  08:29, 12 June 2020 (UTC)

Thank You KoalaLou9 (talk) 08:41, 12 June 2020 (UTC)

Vicki Pipe moved to draftspace
An article you recently created, Vicki Pipe, 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.

Hello, I'm Trains2050. I noticed that you made a change to an article, Ballarat Tramway Museum, but you didn't provide a source. I’ve removed it for now, but if you’d like to include a citation to a reliable source and re-add it, please do so! If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks. Trains2050 (talk) 12:14, 12 June 2020 (UTC)

Please do not add or significantly change content without citing verifiable and reliable sources. Before making any potentially controversial edits, it is recommended that you discuss them first on the article's talk page. Please review the guidelines at Citing sources and take this opportunity to add references to the article. Trains2050 (talk) 12:18, 12 June 2020 (UTC)

Recent edit reversion
In this edit here, I reverted some information that appears to be a violation of our copyright policy.

I provided a brief summary of the problem in the edit summary, which should be visible just below my name. You can also click on the "view history" tab in the article to see the recent history of the article. This should be an edit with my name, and a parenthetical comment explaining why your edit was reverted. If that information is not sufficient to explain the situation, please ask.

Welcome to the GOCE!
Hello KoalaLou9, and welcome to the Guild of Copy Editors! We are glad that you have decided to help us in our mission to improve the quality of writing on the English Wikipedia. Here are some links that you might find helpful to get started on your copy-editing journey:


 * A how-to guide to Wikipeda copyediting

 * A simplified version of the above
 * A quick guide to writing on Wikipedia

You can help with copy-editing requests if you already have familiarity with the MOS and considerable English copy-editing skills, or start with articles tagged for copy editing to gain experience.

Thank you so much for joining the GOCE, we appreciate it!

Centenary 1000
Hi & welcome to wikipedia. Thanks for your interest in historical cycling events such as the Centenary 1000. Unfortunately I have had to revert your edit because that particular article is about the race in 1934 and not the Melbourne to Warrnambool Classic, nor the Road Championship. If you have any questions or comments, please reply here. If you use  I will be notified of your reply. --Find bruce (talk) 23:38, 12 June 2020 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Melbourne Tramcar Preservation Association


A tag has been placed on Melbourne Tramcar Preservation Association requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page appears to be an unambiguous copyright infringement. This page appears to be a direct copy from https://www.mtpa.com.au/history.html. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images taken from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. You may use external websites or other printed material as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. This part is crucial: say it in your own words. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.

If the external website or image belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text or image — which means allowing other people to use it for any reason — then you must verify that externally by one of the processes explained at Donating copyrighted materials. The same holds if you are not the owner but have their permission. If you are not the owner and do not have permission, see Requesting copyright permission for how you may obtain it. You might want to look at Wikipedia's copyright policy for more details, or ask a question here.

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. Nightfury 08:45, 17 June 2020 (UTC)
