Hi - regarding Greg Wells’s Wiki page, we are aware it’s not for promotion and simply want accurate facts listed. You have said he is also known as Silias Loder. He recorded a record in 1995 that was never commercially released, and the name of the record was Silas Loder, not Silias Loder. To edit Wikipedia and say that Wells is known as a misspelled unreleased album title is a headscratcher. You have changed Wells’ album sales from 130 million to 13 million. Another baseless headscratcher. He is professionally known as, and has always been called since birth, Greg Wells. You can list his full given birth name but should also acknowledge that his Grammy award says Greg Wells and every credit he’s ever had says Greg Wells. Let’s please resolve this amicably. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 45.49.229.25 (talk) 17:26, 11 October 2020 (UTC)

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits.

Please do not create, maintain or restore hoaxes on Wikipedia, as you did at Wayfair. If you are interested in how accurate Wikipedia is, a more constructive test method would be to try to find inaccurate statements that are already in Wikipedia—and then to correct them if possible. Please do not disrupt Wikipedia. Continued disruption will be met with being blocked from editing, or other sanctions. Feel free to take a look at the five pillars of Wikipedia to learn more about this project and how you can contribute constructively. ''Your edits falsely portray a false conspiracy theory as a "conspiracy" and remove reliably-sourced descriptions of the claims as false. This is disruptive and will lead to sanctions.

Kehlani
Please do not introduce links in actual articles to draft articles, as you did to Kehlani. Since a draft is not yet ready for the main article space, it is not in shape for ordinary readers, and links from articles should not go to a draft. Such links are contrary to the Manual of Style.

Bare URLs
Hi Pompous Retail. I refer to your edit here:. Please don't use Bare URLs on Wikipedia for reasons as explained at Bare URLs.

Also as I've mentioned on that articles talk page, the list isn't a collection of everyone who has been able to get media coverage of a prediction, it's a collection of notable predictions and predictions from notable people. The Begley prediction is neither, so it doesn't belong. Damien Linnane (talk) 07:17, 6 November 2020 (UTC)


 * Hi again. I refer to this edit: . While it's certainly better than nothing to include the article's title (rather than just the Bare URL), it's best if you include as much detail about the source as possible, including information such as the date of publication and the author. It's best to use an approved format like Template:Cite web, and fill out as many parameters as possible (sometimes you won't be able to fill out everything, for example if an article isn't attributed to a particular staff member, but fill out as much as you can.)
 * As per WP:COMMONNAME, please refer to people by their commonly used names, not their birth names. Don't pipe 'Bryson Potts' to NLE Choppa, just call him NLE Choppa period.
 * Most importantly, please read WP:Original research. The source you used doesn't appear to mention anything about DNA or make comparisons between this so called 'new earth' and the Christian rapture. Please just stick to the details in the actual sources you provide, without adding your own opinions on what they mean. I'd argue this prediction isn't of an apocalyptic event anyway though. He doesn't clarify what the 'new earth' is, or what not making it there means exactly. Do those of us 'left behind' die or just continue living as we have been? That question is rhetorical, as it essentially doesn't matter what either of our opinions on the matter is. The source needs to be clear that we're talking about an apocalyptic event, otherwise I'd argue it's unusable. Damien Linnane (talk) 22:35, 15 December 2020 (UTC)
